"Atlantis" and "Treasure Planet" are such underrated Disney films. Love them!
darthstarkiller1912 Me, too! 😊
They were 2 of my favorite movies to watch when I was younger! Criminally underrated animated movies
darthstarkiller1912 Treasure Planet is my 2nd fav disney film, my fav is Lion King, the movie is SO underated.
Loved atlantis as a kid
no chance against miyazaki's steampunk
Should be titled, 3 Steampunk movies and 7 fillers because we couldn't think of 10.
Should be titled "3 Steampunk movies and 7 fillers because we couldn't think of 10 and we left out the best steampunk movie in the honourable mentions because we have no clue what 'steampunk' means."
very true
ShizukuSeiji What movie is that?
They haven't got a clue here.
There are some steampunk movies and a whole bunch of Diselpunk thrown in.... Like metropolis is Diselpunk.
It's very easy Happy go lucky Victorian era equals Steampunk and depressing dirty and grimy WW1 era is diselpunk.
There is Decopunk and Atompunk as well....
@@BolinFoto *diesel
You keep using that word, I don't think it means what you think it means.

I am confusion.
ALDO EXPLAIN
According to Wikipedia, Steampunk is a retrofuturistic sub-genre of science fiction or science fantasy that incorporates technology and aesthetic designs inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery.
@@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624 Yep, but this list technically includes 'Diesel Punk' which is more about petrol and 1920s, 1930s tech.
Inconceivable
Steam punk is such a rich theme it's a shame it doesn't get more attention from films and video games.
"Top 10 Best Steam Punk Movies"
Starts video with a Diesel Punk movie...
When will they ever make a propane punk movie?
Hank Hill: let me tell you hwat
I think only 3 of these count as true steam punk. Seriously, they can't be bothered to use wikipedia?
Yeah and in hindi dub not in chinese. 😂
That's not the same thing?
Dishonored and bioshock movies can make a beautiful steam punk movies
No they can't. When the flying fuck has a video game ever been ported to make a good movie? Leave those properties alone.
In theory, those would make amazing movies but if they actually tried It sadly would probably suck like every other video game movie adaptation.
No doubt
I'm not going to check to see if anyone else pointed this out, but many in this list are examples of Dieselpunk, not Steampunk. Metropolis is a shining example of Dieselpunk. You can tell by it's heavy use of Art Deco and Technology as envisioned by the 20s/30s/40s. Another good example is Things to Come, though elements of Steampunk emerge during the post-war society, a Dieselpunk society forces them into surrendering, the Ending Society is more Rocketpunk. You also used footage of Sky Captain and the world of Tomorrow. This movie borrows heavily from the sci fi adventure serials of the 30s and thus is planted firmly in the Dieselpunk genre. I see too many times people confusing Steampunk with Dieselpunk. Steampunk usually ends near World War 1 era where technology and aesthetics are concerned , while Dieselpunk emerges during the 20s. The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec and City of Lost Children are excellent examples of Steampunk, Lost Children you mentioned. The Mutant Chronicles is good example of Late Steampunk as it uses World War 1 aesthetics. I'm just pointing the differences out to you, I respect Watch Mojo, but the mistakes are real with this one. Steampunk in it's most simplest of Definitions is a Victorian Aesthetic while Diesel Punk has that Art Deco 30s aesthetic. Dieselpunk is Bioshock, Steampunk is Bioshock Infinite.
Aaron juergens Everyone. That's whose already said that. Everyone.
I thought The Mutant Chronicles was Dieselpunk?
this comment is so cool :D
LOL, steampunk existed as a genre way before Dieselpunk was even a word, you are quibbling over meaningless timing. So silly to be so vehement about meaningless semantics
I agree.
The movie 9 is one of the greatest movies ever made, it was in their "honorable mentions" section of this video. If you've never seen it, i suggest watching it. It's a masterpiece, highly underrated. The CGI is quite good for an 11 year old movie as well... voice acting is also spot on.
Me: "They better have Steam Boy in one of the top 3 places"
WatchMojo: "Now time for our honorable mentions"
*Shows Steam Boy*
Me: *"F#CK!!"*
And don't forget about "9". Both should've been in the top 10.
Tru tru. "9" was worthy of top 10 as well.
Andrew Ace likewise.
If I remember correctly, Citizen Kane barely got an Honorable Mention on their list of top 10 best films of all time...
Yes! Steam boy is amazing
Metropolis is straight up a fucking sci-fi
Steam Punk is rooted in sci-fi. But if they use steam technology, its Steam Punk.
Which leaves out Metropolis
Metropolis was steampunk before people knew it was steampunk.
No... Metropolis is as far from Steampunk as you can get. It's, if anything, the very first science fiction film... like the original comment says: it's straight up fuckin' sci-fi... no Steampunk to it.
Then again, they opened it with footage of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, which is Dieselpunk and not Steampunk... so I'm not expecting a lot of accuracy with these cats.
Preach it, seanstrife! And Munchausen is like, Baroque fantasy. Wild, Wild West was just dumb.
"The Time Machine" should be on this list.
I'm with you, mate.
That movie is a bit underrated.
Just like Guy Pearce himself.
Agree 👍
The 60s George Pal version though, not the daft Guy Pearce version.
HOWL’S MOVING CASTLE!! My favorite book and movie!!
Hellboy 2 could be considered steampunk.
RtdXyron Definitely!!
It has to take place in the 1800s or the early 1900s to be considered steampunk.
Luke Pettis Not really. It can be set in the 18th, 19th or 20th Century, but it also can be set in the present day or even in the future, as long as it has steam tech and sci-fi elements.
Baron Munchausen is set in the 1700's for a start so they got that wrong.
Oh, yeah... that's true..doh! the film is still not very what i would class 'Steampunk' though
Whats about "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen"??
I think they were looking for good movies. Though "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" is actually more relevant to Steam Punk than most of the movies on their list, it wasn't well received.
@@jackkemp7256
If they were looking for good movies why include Sky Captain? It was practically unwatchable.
As flawed as League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was, it was far more watchable than Sky Captain.
@@maxkronader5225 Okay
It says 'best'.
@@renardmigrant Uh oh, here comes Max Kronader's short rant again.
Don't get me wrong, I love Howl's Moving Castle, but I feel like Castle in The Sky had much more steampunk related themes--Ex. characters being inventors/explorers, the large zeppelins, the trains, the mining town, the weapons used, the sky pirates, and Laputa as a whole. All Howl really had was the castle.
Watched _Howl's Moving Castle_ last week-end. Did not understand it much.
Too many unanswered questions like "why all of a sudden Sophie looks young, then looks old again?"
snowpiercer, hellboy, league of extraordinary gentlemen....
Adventures of the Baron Munchausen, Things to Come, Atlantis The Lost Empire, Treasure Plant
shrek
Snowpiercer I feel is more post apocalyptic, maybe a fusion of the two
4:28 "...before steampunk was even a genre."
Mojo, have you ever read any books by Jules Verne?
Well Verne and Wells wouldn't have thought of their work as Steampunk, its only Steam Punk in retrospect being deliberately archaic to cyberpunk. The term Science Fiction wasn't even coined, Speculative Fiction was their best attempt at classifying it.
The term 'steampunk' was only coined in 1987.
"9" looks to be more "stitchpunk" than "steampunk."
Where is "Jack and the Cuckoo Clock Heart" (Jack et la mécanique du Cœur)? That is steampunk as hell.
When I saw the title, I thought, "I hope City of Lost Children is on there." It was, then I was pleasantly surprised to see Hugo and Howl's Moving Castle on the list as well. And even an honorable mention to City of Ember, which I think is kind of underrated.
i want a bioshock movie ... : (
SteliosE92 I want bioshock 3 already :(
Sucks that ken levine won't work on another installment
Woe, Is Me [&] honestly I think that we should forget about movie version of games. Hollywood always fucks them up.
Shyan Haque I personally hate movies based on games. I was talking about the actual bioshock series.
Woe, Is Me [&] oh pardon me. But didn't infinite count as 3?
Shyan Haque lol yeah I forgot that infinite is technically bioshock 3. I meant that I want bioshock 4 smh.
A few of these aren't Steampunk though... movies like Metropolis would be considered Cyberpunk if you were to categorize them by the "-punk" genre. Others would be considered Dieselpunk...
I wish Mojo would do some research into the differences, but eh what can I do?
why on earth would metropolis be cyberpunk?
"high tech and low life" is the credo of cyberpunk, and it typically deals with a dystopian future; something that is a prevalent theme in Metropolis. If anything, Metropolis is the grandfather of cyberpunk.
sounds like one of those topics you have to argue over about over an hour and a fat spliff!!
You're not that far off from the truth, actually.
Here here. And there was a lot of other movies that would be worth mentioning.
I love Metropolis... Great story and for the 1930s, an amazing advance in cinema.
I loved Atlantis as a kid! I never understood why it and Treasure Planet didn't get more love.
Things to come is Diesel Punk bordering on Atom Punk
And Metropolis is the epitome of Diesel Punk
I would say they're simply sci-fi, set in a future that hasn't happened yet. Both Atom Punk and Dieselpunk are set in the past or alternate past of certain eras 1920s to 50s.
suck part if you look into steam punk, most of these are not steam punk. steam punk is a mix of clockwork and steam based tech with an industrial back from such as the Victorian period.
hugo
city of lost children
are good examples of these.
steamboy is another great example. the rest don't fit imo.
Azura Moonstar Steampunk doesn't necessarily need to be set in the Victorian Era (which is just in England). It can be set anywhere in the 18th, 19th or 20th Century, or even in the future.
***** victorian ere isn;t just in England :) And that's the bulk of what steampunk is.
Boston has a huge following of steampunk and most of the outfits (all rather) are Victorian inspired/steam clockwork things.
like the top hat and goggle look. the reason is, is steam based machinery was big in that time period with steam locomotives and other industrial machinery. using coal as a heat source
And let's not forget the number one "Steampunk" movie on the list isn't even Steampunk... it's straight up sci-fi. It's probably closer to CYBERPUNK than Steampunk, and I wouldn't even consider Metropolis to be Cyberpunk.
SeanStrife it isn't, steam boy is better rep of steampunk. As is hugo.
to others:
Look up rush clock work angles, it was their steampunk album and tour.
Fictionally speaking, dieselpunk has to be a sub genre of steampunk; technically speaking, they were competing technologies, like betamax and vhs, playstation and xbox, bluray and hd. So, anything with late 19th century through WWII style tech falls within the steampunk genre, whether steam, diesel, gasoline, coal or hydrogen powered -- as long as it generates some kind of smoke.
Technically speaking half of these movies are not Steampunk.
Leshy - WM often don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
So glad they included "The City of Lost Children" in this list.
Where the hell is The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen!?
Foxuchin † the list is Best of..that movie was utter shit.
meh! movie.
Foxuchin † Good question!
I 100 percent agree with you
It's a fun movie in very spread out doses. But the sets and amazing to be sure.
I adore the City of Lost Children, beautiful and strange.
1:04 watchmojo used hindi dub for originally a chinese movie 😂
I wonder what a Steampunk film directed by Guillermo del Toro would look like. I bet it will be breathtaking.
I think I would die from how breath-taking it would be 🤩
Words cannot describe how much I love Treasure Planet! The film is kind of ingrained in my childhood!!
The Adventures of Baron von Munchausen isn't even remotely 'Steampunk'. Not even close.
What do you guys think Steampunk means? I mean...most of this list is ridiculous, but....seriously? Baron von Munchausen?
yup, Munchausen is romantic fantasy, like Gilliam's other movies The Fisher King and Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
I agree...although I like the style and vision in that movie.... it would be during the "first industrial revolution"...most of the steam happened during the second...so it is pre-steam...while still early Victorian
dcanmore - The original book was written in 1785
I agree..... Gilliam's previous film, *Brazil* would've been a better choice.
Wild Wild West , Hellboy 2 , The league of extraordinary gentleman , The Golden Compas , Hansel and Gretel, Sucker Punch ...
Love your videos!! Could you please create a video on solarpunk movies?
I freaking love steam punk as an aesthetics and style i find it really beatiful and all,so even if a movie is not that good you can always admire the general work they did.Hugo was a really good and also beautiful movie as well i loved it but also the others on that list make a great job for that style.
Atlantis and treasure planet in the same list, my life is complete
Fantastic! This is the first WatchMojo list that I've completely agreed with. You guys nailed it this time!
Something you missed about Baron Munchhausen is that he is a well known figure in German literature and his most prominent characteristic is that he makes up all his adventures. Knowing that will most likely put a whole different twist to the movie.
What about Mutant Chronicles from 2008?
THAT is a Steampunk movie.
I love that it started with Sky Captain. I love that movie :)
Once I saw the title of this video I couldn’t click it fast enough. Steampunk is my entire aesthetic and has been for years (my fiancé and I’s wedding is going to be steampunk themed as well, I’m so excited!) I loved seeing movies on here that I didn’t know existed and I will surely add them to my list, as well as seeing ones that I know and love. That being said, it kinda breaks my heart that Wild Wild West got screen time but not even mentioned by name on here. Also not seeing the movies Stardust & The Three Musketeers makes me sad as well. They are incredible and deserve a shoutout! ⚙️
Great list. One or two I have yet to see.
Steamboy should be on this list.
The City of Lost Children is beautiful, and probably my favorite on this list.
Great list!
Steampunk is really an exciting aesthetic and philosophy. Great video.

Most of these movies are Neo-Victorian not Steam Punk first term of the word in 1987. And I do love the Steam Punk style.
Treasure Planet and Atlantis, oh I am full of nostalgia. 😄
That will always be a classic.
Yes indeed!
"April and the Extraordinary World" is a good underrated steampunk film that deserves at least a mention on this debatable list.
Came here to the comments to put up league of extraordinary gentlemen. Glad to see other people have too. It fits the definition much closer than most of these movies and is a great one also.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the majority aren't even 'steampunk'. Dieselpunk, gaslamp fantasy, and atompunk, and good films, yes, but a lot simply has nothing to do with steampunk.
1:03 lol I see you used the Hindi dub there
Jamyang Pelsang you understand hindi ???? 😮
They really should do a part 2 for this top 10 so many films that should be noted or only got honorable mention
One of my favorite steampunk films is "The Assassination Bureau" with Oliver Reed, Diana Rigg, and Telly Savalas.
ATLANTIS AND TREASURE PLANET WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE DISNEY FILMS
I loved Sky Captain, such a fun movie to watch.
Totally agree with #1. Love that movie. And 20,000 Leagues is absolutely classic! Great list!
Smashing pumpkins "Tonight tonight"
Sky Captain is Dieselpunk
Also 'The Shape of Things to Come'
Alo (due to the cars etc) ' Metropolis
I never really looked at Treasure Planet as a steampunk film, but now that you mention it, that does explain the excessive use of robots.
xXGhoulishNinjaTurtleXx
I believe treasure planet was an underrated movie.
kool killer Yes! Someone else who agrees! My mom loves that movie too!
You remind me my childhood, thank you
The Time Machine 1960 was a fun little steampunk movie for the honorable mentions.
Franklyn (2008), grossly overlooked
Oh my god, you are awesome. I have been been trying to remember the name of this movie for almost nine years. I rented it from a local video store back when it first came out and I loved it. Thank you, so much.
great film, I don't know why more people don't know of this movie?
It's been a year since your post, but it finally found me. One more for my "To Watch" list.🍻
It's not technically steampunk though. It has aspects and scenes, but the movie is still set in modern times with modern technology in parts.
Thank you for the recommendation, I will check it out.
I saw it in the beginning and don't know if it is actually on the list yet, but Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow isn't steampunk it's more decopunk or dieselpunk.
It is also awful.
If you like steampunk, you should check Karel Zeman's movies: The Deadly Invention (1958) or his version of The Fabulous Baron Munchausen (1962). Also another czech filmmaker Oldrich Lipsky has few steampunk related movies: Adele's Dinner (1978) and The Mysterious Castle in the Carpathians (1981). These two are also great comedies.
Note that the number one *steampunk* movie on this list is actually dieselpunk.
Cool, so how 'bout the 10 _worst_ Steampunk movies?
Back to the Future Part III has more steampunk thank most of these movies ;)
Everyone’s complaining about how most of the movies on this list aren’t even steampunk. I’m just glad Howl’s Moving Castle is on the list.
nice list
What about SuckerPunch
Zainab Choonara That's dieselpunk, not steampunk.
WatchMojo is litterally running out of ideas since 2016
can they think something creative and entertaining
Idk I love steampunk
I agree i used to like Watch mojo but they're pretty too much bised toward pop culture and not real art.

Glad the "City of Ember" made the Honourable Mentions list. Only went to see it by accident and fell in love.
The City of Lost Children is a masterpiece, one of my favorite films!
Do cyber punk next
The basic definition of steampunk, as I understand it, is that the work in question must be set in Earth's past (albeit an alternate one), and involve technology that did not exist at the time (and, in many cases, still doesn't). Considering that several of these either take place in the future (Things To Come, Treasure Planet, Metropolis), another world entirely (Howl's Moving Castle), or don't actually involve anything technological at all (Adventures of Baron Munchausen), I'd say you might want to rethink it a bit. There are lots of things which have been stylistic influences on steampunk (or the other way 'round); that doesn't mean that all of them ARE steampunk.
Actually, quite a few steampunk stories are set in a post-apocalyptic future. Steampunk in general depicts how Victorians would think of the future, so a victorian aesthetic and clockwork and steam-based inventions combined to form either an alternate reality, or an imagining of a future where humans have been forced to devolve back to a victorian era way of life. Although you are right that watchmojo "might want to rethink it a bit" (as many people are saying, most of these examples are dieselpunk), they should do this for different reasons than those which you put forth.
Steampunk isn't always dystopian, though
For similar reasons, I'd remove Metropolis and 20k Leagues from this list, they don't play in the relative past, considering their release date. From their point of view, they're simply futuristic sci-fi. And I'd say more than "set in the past", Steam/Dieselpunk is about "upgrading" outdated technology, assuming it previailed or had received advancements it never could in the real world, which is usually unrealistic, and thus requires suspense of disbelief in a backwards direction (while sci-fi requires forward suspense of disbelief, to accept that this or that development could come from the further development of today's technology)
20 000 Leagues under the Sea is not (and never was) futuristic... It played in the past, in the 1860's to be exact (or the present if you take the book's publishing date as a reference). And it is quite exactly Steampunk, since it is using steam-engine-era technology to create something impossible* to make with that technology (a submarine).
* well, technically, a nuclear submarine uses steam as a power vector, the main difference (to keep it short and simple) being the nature of the fuel: coal vs. uranium...
Ok, my bad, I was rather talking about/thinking of the book, while the movie obviously was made in an era when steam technology could already be considered outdated. Even Wikipedia agrees that the movie is a precursor to Steampunk. It does get blurry though for adaptions of much earlier material that don't update the fictional tech.
steampunk really rare and underrated it needs more appreciation
I keep forgetting that Hugo was a Scorsese flick. Saw it in Film Lit, and it was one of my favorite labs from that class.
"Set in a city caught in a middle of a war" ... that's the Siege of Vienna (1529) oh bless your ignorant souls!
I absolutely love *The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen*...but I think putting it on a steampunk film list was something of a stretch. *Brazil* would've been a better choice.
agreed, but Brazil is dystopia.
Totally agree.
Omg. Some of these mentions are movies i've seen but completely forgot that they existed. Nostalgia 😂 especially City Of Ember and Lemony Snicket. Good movie.
Interesting! Love steam punk stuff!
Wow you guys missed Mutant Chronicles!
crazy nazi steampunk scene in Suckerpunch
Is more dieselpunk, isn't it?
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is one of my favorite movie, but I really don't think that one is steampunk.... surely on moon, somekinda clockworking-robot chicken(with 3 heads) came out, but except that? nothing likely...
Sadly I haven't seen any of those movies except for Wild Wild West. And that was one of my favs. I remember I watched it in the theaters when first released and I paid the ticket for my cousin too.
1. Brazil
2. City of Lost Children
3. 20,000 Leagues
4. Baron Munchausen
5. Just the machine from Time Machine
6. Steamboy
7. Hugo
8 Begrudgingly: League of Extraordinary Gents
9 just the hardware Wild, Wild West
10 Lots of bits of Wallace and Gromit
I love the steampunk genre (not cosplay) , particularly the machinery i always think our society would be like this today without the evolution of computers
Just bear in mind that the list here has a mix of Steampunk, Clockpunk, and Dieselpunk. It may be a bit pedantic, but in literary terms, there are distinct differences. :)
So, there's also the 2001 movie _Metropolis_ directed by Rintaro (the founder of Madhouse studios) and adapted from Osamu Texuka's manga.
"The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" is indeed one of the best and charming steam punk films of all time! :)
treasure planet is fuckin amazing
I here early..so here's a joke guys

Watchmojo !
I watched 2 great movies that I have not seen thanks to this list guys, so thank you 😊
I'd think Time Machine (1960). "Elephant Man" also came to mind-- there's a lot of industrial/machinery references in the film & takes place in Victorian England. And then there's "The Prestige," though that seems more like tobaccopunk than anything else...
Boxtrolls anyone?
God, I hated that movie. Easily the worst of the Laika movies.
Alexander John Babbage why?
Diego M-A Everyone was just so ugly and mean to each other. Not one character was likable. Just a mean and nasty movie.
No 'The Time Machine' then? The original surely qualifies more than some of these offerings.
Wayne H - I honestly don't think that anything written in the Victorian era can qualify as steam punk.
It's like calling the Parthenon an example of neoGrecian architecture.
It's the original, what the modern iteration is based on.
Indeed. Astutely put.
Wayne H - Thank you.
Unfortunately by that rule nothing written by H.G.Wells or Jules Vern would qualify.
It's kind of a shame because I grew up on those guys, but on the other hand there are plenty of other lists that they could potentially be on.
Top 10 early science fiction writers, etc.
By the way, if you really dig SP you should check out a book called The Warlord of the Air by Michael Moorcock.
Arguably the first steam punk story, it was steam punk before the term was invented.
If you like that he wrote two more; The Land Leviathan, and The Steel Tsar.
ENJOY!
@@ericisprobablyfullofshit7797 I don't think the era of the author has anything to do with the genre of the film adaptation... that is up to the director. I personally would love to see a steampunk (or diesel punk) version of War of the Worlds
What is the movie in the beginning with the man flying the plane called
