Wall.e


Yesterday i was lucky enough to see the film Wall.e at Disney i have to say it was AMAZING!!! :-) Disney. Pixar produced a heartfelt, warm, emotional computer graphic picture which i felt captured everyone's heart and soul in the cinema!

According to John Lasseter, "WALL•E" is the story about the last little robot on Earth. He is a robot that his programming was to help clean up. You see, it's set way in the future. Through consumerism, rampant, unchecked consumerism, the Earth was covered with trash. And to clean up, everyone had to leave Earth and set in place millions of these little robots that went around to clean up the trash and make Earth habitable again. Well, the cleanup program failed with the exception of this one little robot and he's left on Earth doing his duty all alone. But it's not a story about science fiction. It's a love story, because, you see, "WALL•E" falls in love with [Eve], a robot from a probe that comes down to check on Earth, and she's left there to check on and see how things are going and he absolutely falls in love with her."

The humanization of Wall.e and the relationship it has with Eve (Eva as Wall.e calls her in the film) was unbelievable!

The Picture conjures up varied emotions as well as visually portraying issues we have in our society today; Global Warming, Recycling, Waste, Pollution, Obesity, Love and our relationships.
