Lost In Xanadu Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) Watching the animated series, Avatar :the Last Airbender, with my kids this weekend, and the flying machines the "Fire Nation" had appear to be very steampunk in nature. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101205175028/avatar/images/thumb/8/89/Airship.png/250px-Airship.pnghttp://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20081212182421/avatar/images/thumb/b/b6/Airship_Battle.png/200px-Airship_Battle.png Any other references?

Del_Duio Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) There's a great PC game from the late 90's (I think) Called Arcanum: Of Magik and Steamworks Obscura. Kind of a cross between Diablo & The Baldur's Gate games but along with your magic you also can make mechanized bombs, flame throwers, etc. EDIT: Here's the wiki article on it: Arcanum Wiki Entry Edited June 18, 2012 by Del_Duio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 There was an animated Disney movie back in 2002 which got largely ignored, including by me, but it had a kind of "steampunk" visual style: Treasure Planet, a "futuristic" re-telling of Treasure Island - http://content.internetvideoarchive.com/content/photos/1249/278149_127.jpg The previous year, the Disney film Atlantis: The Lost Empire was an even better example of steampunk - http://content8.flixster.com/movie/25/73/257314_det.jpg And one of the most notorious "steampunk" films was the anime film "Steamboy" - http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/9c/Steamboy.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm excited for that. I also heard that movie from last year, I think it was called "Hugo", was very steampunk themed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Analog_Bro Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Has anyone ever played the "Myst" computer games that came out in the 90's and mid-200's?

Kelly D Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I don't think Atlantis: The Lost Empire counts as steampunk if it was set in the era in which the clothing/architecture/machinery styles were invented. . . just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
