Wall-E

Waaaaaall-eeeee....

Roger Ebert said of this movie: "Pixar’s “WALL•E” succeeds at being three things at once: an enthralling animated film, a visual wonderment and a decent science-fiction story. After “Kung Fu Panda,” I thought I had just about exhausted my emergency supply of childlike credulity, but here is a film, like “Finding Nemo,” that you can enjoy even if you’ve grown up. That it works largely without spoken dialogue is all the more astonishing; it can easily cross language barriers, which is all the better, considering that it tells a planetary story".

I heartily agree with Mr Ebert. The fact that this movie is so great with a child and an adult is part of the success of Pixar. Did any of you catch the references to Star Wars or 2001? They were there, especially when a talking computer refuses to agree with a captain (that sounds familiar). There were many other instances of cases where Walmart would throw a fit, with a Superstore leaving trash all over the earth and leaving Wall-E to clean it up. Isn't that strange, when I thought Walmart and Disney were partners together or something like that.

Not to mention the great animation that Pixar had to offer. Great space scenes!! I thought it was amazing how they captured the immense space and made it so real, like the underwater scenes in Finding Nemo. It looks like you're really in space, with Wall E putting his hand through the rings of Saturn.

I loved this movie! "I didn't know there were stars! I didn't know we had a pool!"
