This movie was amazingly cute! I got plenty of laughs and heartwarming "aww"'s out of this. He's really lovable If you're into cute animation and a somewhat-random storyline, you should definitely watch this. Plus, it's cool that he has emotions. Those eyes... So cute!

I almost teared up at the end. But yea, I saw it at the midnight showing last night. ;x

[b]I tried searching for a topic on this but I haven't found it. If there is one, please merge this, kthx.

[Serendipity]

I really want to watch this! It got a 4 star review in my local newspaper and the previews are so cute. :))

[BrokenDream]

I'm watching this tomorrow night with my boyfriend.
Looks adorable.

[karmakiller]

These types of movies typically do really well at the box office. There has been a lot of hype around this movie... and now whenever I go to IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes this is the ad I see. I will probably wait to see it though... until I can watch in my house... so no one will know I've seen it.

[JokeInsideJoke]

awww! to cute! i might see it... im not sure

[Joanne]

I just watched it with a group of friends... GREAT MOVIE!!! Seriously, I can't even begin to describe how amazing it is. This movie really has it all - adventure, action, comedy (the audience LOL'd), AND romance! Plus the short film that was showed before the movie, Presto, was really really good also.

[Just_Dream]

Plus the short film that was showed before the movie, Presto, was really really good also.

Haha yea it was really cute! Oh man, I want a cute bunny like that! Haha watching people get hurt is always funny if it's random and in animation. :P



Seriously though, this move definitely lives up to it's hype. I think what makes this movie so great is that you don't need a lot of fancy shmancy dialogue to make a movie awesome. Honestly, there was not much of a back story, and none was needed, since it was all subtly unraveled throughout the storyline.

[Joanne]

^ Well said. I really liked how there was almost no dialogue for the entire first half of the movie! Just watching Wall-E and Eve's body language was enough. =D

[Gigi]

^ OMG SO CUTE! I loved them.

I think my favourite was the cleaning robot. What was his name again?

EDIT// Just IMDB'd it. M-O!

You should all watch this movie, it's awesome. I looooved the short before it too. I loved it when the bunny clicked his teeth together, awwwe.

[Rachel]

AHH I AM SEEING IT IN EITHER 2 OR 4 HOURS (7 or 9 showing). I AM SOOOO EXCITEDDDD

[mackenziee]

omg, this movie looks extremely good, and it got really good ratings around here. I'm going to see it on Tuesday.

[stephinika]

Seeing it tonight!! So excited!

[anomity]

The previews looked cute. I wanna see it, but everyone else thinks it's too much of a kiddy movie. Guess I'll wait it out.

[Insurmountable]

I can't wait to go see this, I'll probably go sometime later this week or next week. I wanted to go today for my birthday but I never had the chance too XD

[Gigi]

Kids would enjoy it, but it's definitely enjoyable for teens/adults too. The theatre was JAM-PACKED, Harry Potter opening day style, and 80% of the people were adults. The whole theatre LOL'd at the funny parts...you should persuade your friends to go watch it with you.

[stephinika]

OMG. LOVED IT. Seriously. It was so awesome and adorable , but serious too but yeah. Blah, I loved it sooo much.

[Joanne]

Didn't the conflicts totally FREAK YOU OUT THOUGH????

And did anyone other than me see Masi Oka? Or am I just going crazy?

[ANG33ZY]

i loved it.
rly cute movie.

[mizzkewl06]

beyond too freakin' cute. i loved it and will be seeing it again!

[heyo-captain-jac...]

I may or may not see it. It looks average to me.

[Flaunted]

I want to seeeee it omggg!!!!!!!!

[JokeInsideJoke]

haha i saw it! it was so cute!!! i loved the part where he was debating where to put the spork i would totaly see it again!

[Just_Dream]

I hope this movie comes out on Blu-Ray... REAL SOON after it stops showing in theaters. Man, I would so watch this again, but I'd rather OWN IT.

[Relytan]

i know i cant wait to see it...it looks pretty funny

and i made this for another site...not my best but whatever -.-

[Just_Dream]

and i made this for another site...not my best but whatever -.-

^ Cute, but I think it would look nicer with more grungy colors that match with him. :]

[Relytan]

yeah as soon as i finished i thought of that too...oh well

[Butterflyphoenix]

I just watched it today! I thought it was adorable....! Though, didn't you guys feel that it was more romance than it was action? =P

Other than that, I loved it! I cannot wait for the DVD to come out!

[Joanne]

^ Yeah, it totally was. LOL... but the action parts were pretty sweet too. "ROGUE ROBOTS! ROGUE ROBOTS!"

[aaayotiffany]

it was soooo fxcking adorableeee. i absolutely loved it.

"evaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

& the fat people were soooo funny. and i can't believe his best friend is a cockroach, who he ran over like three times. hahaa.

[ReggieM]

it wasnt that great. but it was good.

[only-tuesdays]

It was cute. Did anyone else feel like they were trying to push a message too though?

[Joanne]

Yes... like if we don't act now, our world will be covered in garbage and/or we will all become obese and reliant on technology. Totally freaked me out.

[only-tuesdays]

Yeah, it kind of bugged me...I mean I agree with it and everything, but pushing a not so subtle political message in a kids movie isn't cool. Otherwise I really liked this movie. Very cute, well done. And love the roach.

[lovescream]

ahh it was soo cuute ^^
haha i was aww'ing like the whole timee.
i also love that the majority of the parts had no dialogue but this movie turned out amazingly well. to be honest, i thought it was gonna be one of those hyped up movies that was gonna be just okay, even if it is from pixar, but dang. pixar doesn't fail me. D;
hahaha. and the cleaning robot was so funny xD

[Gigi]

Yeah, it kind of bugged me...I mean I agree with it and everything, but pushing a not so subtle political message in a kids movie isn't cool.

Why isn't it "cool"? Because children's minds are too delicate to learn of consequences for their actions? I think what you said was a little unfair, because the issues that the movie put out aren't harmful to children at all. I hate how children must be patronized just because they're young - they deserve to know what could happen if we continue our lifestyles the way they are now. And they get too little credit - children are inexperienced, but not stupid.

If I was a child, this movie about robots falling in love and saving the world would have a much larger impact on me than a 16-year-old mermaid falling in love and getting married, or a snoozing princess that marries a dude she met one day for a few hours.

What Wall-E was trying to tell us was two things: 1) We must respect the environment, and not be lazy or selfish, and 2) If you persevere against people (or robots) who oppose you, you can start anew (and save humankind!) The movie started off pretty glum, but in the end, things were saved. I mean, what's so wrong about that? I learned about taking care of the environment when I was in the first grade, and my mind isn't corrupted by Disney-Pixar's movies that carried a message and caused me to think.

Like I said, I agree with the message they are pushing. I understand it, and I absolutely believe it is true. I don't doubt that children are intelligent. Or that they understand many many things.

To me it felt more like the movie was trying to preach about a materialistic lifestyle and where it will get you. It wasn't so much respecting the environment and being lazy, but more about corporate america. Remember when they were on the Axiom and the people saw the advertisement saying blue is the new red? They pushed a button and were wearing blue. The planet was trashed because BNL pushed all their products, and consumption became more than anyone could handle. So they left on a 5 year cruise while it got cleaned up. (Which was also sponsored by BNL) The babies in the nursery were being taught their ABC's. A is for Axiom, B is for Buy N Large....everyone was brainwashed.
Remember the movie Josie and the Pussycats? Same concept.

What is the world like today? It is constant advertisements for the newest thing in fashion, technology, cars, food, etc. It is all about what you can own, and the status that comes with it. Even becoming green has become somewhat a status.

Edit: And in The Little Mermaid's defense, at least she didn't need to be rescued and then married prince charming. She was pretty independant.

Or some girl with a wicked stepmother who gives her a poisoned apple. :O

[Gigi]

Wait, sorry - you agreed with the message, right? The stuff you said about corporate America and brainwashing, I mean. I don't quite understand - if you agree with it and you think that it's an issue, then why would you be opposed to it being exposed? I do agree that the message was biased, one-sided, and overexaggerated. That's the nature of an animated film though.

Oh, I like Ariel (she was independent), but I'm mainly pissed off with the fact that she was 16. Damn pedophiles. Yeah, I went through a phase where I watched all the old-time Disney movies with their princesses, and got really p-o'd at the messages sent at that time. I mean...seriously. How can you fall in love with someone you've met for 1 day?!? THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE. Case in point, Sleeping Beauty. Okay, so your marriage was arranged, but can you really fall in love with this dude that you did a musical number with in the woods?! No! And the Little Mermaid, on what grounds did she fall in love with him? She hardly knew the guy, and yet she was so desperate to become a human being, and the bargain was that he had to fall in love with her? Why was it all about the guys falling in love with the girls? PISSED ME OFF.

The only Disney "princess" movie I actually enjoyed was Beauty and the Beast, because Belle wasn't such a superficial bitch, and actually had reasons to love the Beast.

Honestly, I don't see a problem with "preaching" about such a materialistic lifestyle. I think the movie did it in a somewhat subtle way. It's not like they were using complex concepts with what little dialogue there was. I think you're straying from a larger concept here: Friendship

WARNING! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS BELOW:

When Eve got the you-know-what, Wall-E was so worried that he tried everything to take care of her. For a robot who is used to cleaning and interacting with crickets, meeting someone/something else... it allows him to feel various emotions. And let's not forget what happened at the end.

agreed. i think the messages this movie had about being materialistic, about being loyal, about friendship, and about taking care of mother earth were all very well displayed and subtle. i enjoyed the movie and i loved taking my little cousins to see this. not only did they love it but they learned something too.

Is it weird that my heart was aching at that part? It was so incredibly sad (and cute). =(

Yea I know what you mean. :[ Oh man, all those times where he risked his life... I wish the ending was drawn out a little more. Those Korean Dramas/Movies/JDoramas have built my tolerance for tearjerker moments. Damn those! But seriously, it was sad. :/

[Gigi]

^ Crap, if the ending was drawn out any longer I would've started BAWLING.

what happen to gigiopolis

reminded me of metropolis .

HAHA, this totally made my day.

So I haven't seen this movie, but from all that I've heard of it so far, I want to go watch it.

[The-March-Hare]

Gigi, you have entertained me. Brava. And I agree wholeheartedly.

Also, I want Wall-E. Like, I want one. His eyes are so effing cute, and I never find things 'cute'

[Gigi]

what happen to gigiopolis

reminded me of metropolis .

I'm getting sick of people referring to me as that. Or, mistakenly calling me "Gigio" or something.

I WANT A WALL-E TOO! Although, a plushie one would be out of the question...but more cuddly, yeah.


Is it a weird comment that...I wished that Wall-E toy robot was dirty, like in the film? It's just not the same when he's spankin' new and clean.

LOOK! Dirty Wall-E has so much more charisma.

[StubbornFemme]

i dont care if this movie is for kids, i LOVED IT<33 haha, first i was i a little skeptical at it but i kept saying awww and all that stuff. i love moe, the little cleaner robot(: anddd how walle wanted to hold hands w/eve.

[Joanne]

Agreed, Gigi. I saw a bunch of little WALL-E's at Wal-Mart, and they were all so clean!!! It just isn't the same.

[Just_Dream]

^ Crap, if the ending was drawn out any longer I would've started BAWLING.

But I wanted to cry.

[stephinika]

^^
I just about did. =p

But omg I want a Wall-E toy too! And yes I agree on the dirty vs. clean one.

[queen]

i just saw it ;O. love it<3. def. getting the bluray.

[ernestprongs]

This movie looks interesting and cute, didn't it have like a message about pollution or something along those lines?

[Flaunted]

Omg I was about to cry at the very end :[ :[
The embracing of hands really touched me
and I love how this movie also sent out a message for young and old.
Totally getting this when it comes out.

OMG I REALLY LOVED IT WHEN WALLE HAD TO REPLACE HIS EYES AND THEN WOULD BASICALLY WIGGLE HIS WHAT WOULD BE CALLED EYEBROW/EYES.
SUPER SUPER CUTE, I was about to squeal.

[missnh]

BEST MOVIE EVER

[BrokenDream]

Haha. I watched this movie, it was cute, but I don't think it was the best movie ever.

I found that funny how the roach kept getting squashed and people in our audience would gasp and when the roach got right back up the audience would sigh in relief.

XD

I don't know, the crowd amuses me.

Did anybody else notice the quote, "I don't want to survive! I want to live!"
by the captain?



Is it just me or was that said wrong? Or maybe I'm wrong. That's all I heard and it just bothered me the whole night.

the captain meant he didn't want to have things just handed to him for him to "survive", which is essentially what "life" is in axiom. he wanted to experience things and putforth effort, to live.

i still think it's the best movie evaaaaaaaaaar. ;x i also agree with whoever posted above about all the things wall-e did for eve while she was in her "directive" sleep-mode.

[Just_Dream]

Did anybody else notice the quote, "I don't want to survive! I want to live!"
by the captain?

Yea, I remember that. What's wrong with that? He actually meant something like "I don't just want to survive, I want to also live!" I added in the "just" and the "also" because it sounds better that way. Think about it -- the ship owned by Buy N Large was just trying to keep the people alive (survival), but the captain wants the people to live, as in "experience". To actually go out and live out his life, not just sit around saying speeches for a ship then going back and slurping up food. I don't know if what I'm saying makes any sense though, but it makes sense in my head!

[ernestprongs]

It makes perfect sense, and that was my exact interpretation as well, routinism isn't exactly living.

[stephinika]

I love that quote from the movie! Honestly, it was one of my favourite parts. Definitely something I want to/try to live by.

[sharerol]

I didnt know this movie was supposed to be so much about love. It was cuuute but it made me sad because it was so gushy

[BrokenDream]

Oh. I understand it now. Nevermind.
