Do we have an Idea on the Short released with the movie?

Cause those seem to get me in the mood for the movies.

The WALL.E Meet's clips are awesome my favorite still has to the the Superbowl Advert featuring my two favorite Characters Buzz & Woody.

I remember looking at idbm.com a while back when John Ratzenberger wasn't included. It worried me as the ninth feature film for most companies has proven to be the failing point Without John Lasseter (Pixar's main lucky penny missing) not including Ratzenberger (The second penny that loves to turn up and give luck) for me ensured the film would fail, as my viewing of Pixar movies has become a game of Spot the voice (it was harder in Ratatouille, it took me 2 cinema visits in a week to find him).

Easily done, there's two of us... one of him... And then I'll allow you maybe 3 hours to take photos and videos and Sit BEHIND IT... Then you can return home, Without the bench as both WALL-E and EVE will come back to Wales with me.

I got the book The Art of WALL-E today! Usually I'd wait till after the film, but I had an Amazon voucher and couldn't resist. It seems much thicker than the previous Cars book, there's definitely a lot more artwork in here.



--- I've not really included many spoilers (none about the story), but this is just a warning anyway ---

What I'm seeing is just spectacular, spectacular, spectacular. Seas turned to dirty, brown sand, motorway networks crumbled and covered in the dust of pollution, cities reaching high into the thick orange sky and trash everywhere, filling every corner. In one picture, WALL-E is looking into a small corner where a ray of light has picked up the tiny leaf of a single plant...

Heading into space, you can hardly escape the earth for the amount of satellites filling the sky. It even looks like they considering making part of the big AXIOM space ship the humans are now living on look like an original Space Mountain concept by John Hench. Maybe they did... we'll find out.

The whole theme of this Buy-N-Large mega corporation is spread right throughout, loads of signs, advertisements, branding everywhere. There's a small newspaper cover with the headline "TOO MUCH TRASH!!! EARTH COVERED -- BNL CEO DECLARES GLOBAL EMERGENCY", with the guy pictured at the White House podium with a massive grin. The president's podium has been redecorated instead with a sign "Global CEO of BNL".

The really big revelation... the humans. You might have read on Jim Hill and elsewhere that these are going to be a bit different to today - so overweight they all need hoverchairs to get around, etc. There are a LOT of concepts in the book for them, and most link back to a character we've already seen last year...



This ain't going to be pretty.

Hey guys, the movie was shown at a private screening to a number of critics, all of
them agreed that the movie is one of the best Pixar movies.
This is what some of them had to say

QuoteWall-E ranks up there with Ratatouille as being one of the best movies Pixar has done so far, and they manage to move in a new and exciting direction! I'd say 1/2 of the movie is done without dialogue, and consists of the main characters saying each other's names, gesturing and making robot noises. You'd think it wouldn't work out, but it works perfectly! Not only do you get the plot without the need for dialogue, the characters really convey their impressively wide range of motions with subtle gestures. The character of Wall-E himself is amazing. He's the most likeable characters Pixar has created, and so human! He's so human-like that his personality infects others around him like a virus (a good virus). I couldn't stop watching him! The plot itself is compelling, the story moves along really well, and you really get into it. The look of the movie is also amazing, with great sweeping vistas of the future of Earth... so desolate and bare... as well as the future of humanity... so commercial and devoid of life. It's such a stark contrast to Ratatouille, which had a richer palette with warm colors. As with both Ratatouille and Wall-E, Pixar did an amazing job with making it look so real! Ratatouille made stuff familiar to us look realistic, while Wall-E made us believe in these new futures of Earth and humanity. Finally the end credits were some of the best I've seen... downright breathtaking and really shows Pixar's creative breadth and the overflowing talent of its artists

QuoteWish I could share more, but alas - there's that whole confidentiality agreement and the fear of being suddenly unemployed! The Party was a bast, however (they always are!) we even had a couple of 'friends' share in the fun with us (the 'Crying Trailer Watching Girl' you might have seen on YouTube, and maybe one or two others I'm afraid to speak about), the food was great, and the movie was fantastic (speaking strictly as a fan!) Dare I say it: this century's E.T.! The short you'll find attached to the movie is perhaps our most hilarious short films ever! I think you guys will really like this one!"

The trailer watching girl is very funny, she filmed her reactions when she was watching WALL-E
trailer for the first time, so she got an invitation to see the movie

This is her  :mrgreen:
