Wall-E

Wall-E
Any other society members catch it yet? Personally, I thought it was absolutely AMAZING, and easily got into my top five favorite animated movies of all time, nay favorite movies IN GENERAL. Every single shot was beautiful and every moment had weight and really made you feel for all the characters. Just a pure triumph on every level. What'd you guys think?

WAAAALLLLLL-EEEE! EEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV-AAAAAAAAAAAA! Loved it! Saw it with the girls, we all walked out of the theatre yelling wall-e and eve to each other... haha! I also liked the minimal dialogue, very different for a kids animated feature length movie, eh? OH, and how about the short at the beginning??

The short was really good! It kind of went back to the heart of all those classic Looney Tunes shorts with all the great physical comedy and such. It's really hard for Pixar to do wrong.

Wall*E was excellent. I don't think there's ever been another studio with a track record as solid as Pixar's.

agreed.... What Disney was to feature length hand-animation back in the days, Pixar truly is now.

The short was really good! It kind of went back to the heart of all those classic Looney Tunes shorts with all the great physical comedy and such. Ha, my brother said the same thing about how the short made him think of old-school Looney Tunes. It's a bit of a shame that you no longer see Bugs and Daffy on TV anymore. That said, Wall*E rocked. I read however, that it didn't make enough to break the record set by Andrew Stanton's first film, Finding Nemo. Makes me wonder if Pixar will ever be able to do that again. Also, I'm kinda bummed that the song "Brazil" which was used in the trailers way back when for Wall*E was nowhere to be heard in the film.

I can't see this beating Nemo. The lack of dialogue I think will turn off some little little kids who like watching movies 1,000 times, you know?

I can't see this beating Nemo. The lack of dialogue I think will turn off some little little kids who like watching movies 1,000 times, you know? I'm talking about box office numbers. People only had a few things to go on before going to see this movie. I doubt little kids were thinking, "what? there's no dialogue? fuck this!" I think it had more to do with the fact that it was about robots and on top of that, computer animated films just doesn't pull out the same numbers that it used to.

Very true... my 9 year old loved it. My point's only that if little kids get a little bored and side-tracked by the lack of dialogue, the re-play, re-see value goes down a little.... Nemo was non-stop! Great movie. Both of 'em. Wall-E is one of pixar's best, no doubt.
