I'm thinking about movies or animated movies or series that have the classic... boy with goggles on/around his head, a father who's a traveler or explorer, a Steampunkish environment, airships everywhere. I'm pretty sure I saw an animated feature with some sort of floating islands, not sure if it was a movie or series.

Can you think of movies or series, be they animated or real, with this type of setting? I will be forever grateful.

EDIT: Upon googling a little, I found that the memory was Dragon Hunters, an average-rated French animated series that was translated into many other languages. Some good suggestions though! If you're interested in the genre, I found some more recommendations. Namely:

  • Escaflowne (Series & Movie, Series arguably better)
  • Last Exile, as stated below (thanks for that suggestion)
  • Treasure Planet (Movie)
  • Skyland (Series)

Not the one I was thinking about, but yes, the setting is there. Specifically the villain's airship layout and trophy room has the right feel.

If you have a Dreamcast, Gamecube, or Wii, and haven't played Skies of Arcadia yet... DO. IT. NOW!

Is there any chance you're thinking of a game? Pretty much every element you described fits Skies of Arcadia.
