The Mitchells vs. The Machines (2021, D: Rianda, P: Lord/Miller) - V: Jacobson, Rudolph, McBride
Saving the world can be a trip. From the minds behind Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. In theaters September 18.
Sony Pictures Animation’s CONNECTED is an original animated comedy from director Mike Rianda (Gravity Falls) and producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, The Lego Movie), about an everyday family's struggle to relate while technology rises up around the world! When Katie Mitchell (voiced by Abbi Jacobson), a creative outsider, is accepted into the film school of her dreams, her plans to meet “her people” at college are upended when her nature-loving dad Rick (voiced by Danny McBride) determines the whole family should drive Katie to school together and bond as a family one last time. Katie and Rick are joined by the rest of the family, including Katie’s wildly positive mom Linda (voiced by Maya Rudolph), her quirky little brother Aaron (voiced by Mike Rianda), and the family’s delightfully chubby pug Monchi for the ultimate family road trip. Suddenly, the Mitchells’ plans are interrupted by a tech uprising: all around the world, the electronic devices people love – from phones, to appliances, to an innovative new line of personal robots – decide it’s time to take over. With the help of two friendly malfunctioning robots, the Mitchells will have to get past their problems and work together to save each other and the world!

Ha, it even looks like a CG Gravity Falls. I like the combo of director/producers here.

Really enjoyed this one. Some good laughs, and a really good family message. Also dug the animations and the "weird" editing additions.

I watched this over the weekend, and really enjoyed it. A lot of off-the wall humor, but also legitimately heartfelt in parts. The Furby scene was insane.
Netflix has released a lot of behind-the-scenes material on Youtube
First, a making-of for the animation.

My kids loved it, wife and I thought it was okay to good. For some reason I couldn’t stop laughing when the pug straightened his eyes out.

OK, so katiedoesfilmstuff is a real Youtube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP-...ZIF8UnR2UvuuHQ
It has meme stuff, like Katie is actually posting them, but also a good number of deleted scenes (storyboarded), and the "ask a dumb robot" series where Eric and Deborahbot answer Twitter questions.
Edit: here's an HD compendium of the "ask a dumb robot" clips:
