Script dept. was on holiday first half of the film. Where's the witty dialogue we know and love? Homage to HAL in 2001 was crass and a clear unimaginative "bolt on" No menace from this 8 bit computer. Again script out to lunch. 46 year old, 14 year and 5 year old clearly unimpressed by the hype.

I even wrote how the present conditions demonstrated in the film affect the system of taxation of the fictional economy. There are a lot of elements in Wall-E that can teach us about economics.

The graphics are breath taking to begin with but then we get to the second part of the movie and we go back to the stupidly fleshed out Pixar style humans I have grown to hate. Sure it's a style they chose, it's aimed at kids after all and the humans look funny to them. But to create such a vivid world with such stunning graphics just to throw those cheap excuses of animation in there at the end is just pathetic in my opinion and the entire human idea should have been left out if you ask me. But yes, as a whole I did enjoy Wall-E a great deal and also had that 'tear' moment John talked about. I'd give it a 8/10 because of the sloppy human animation/models.

My take-NO cartoon picture should be nominated for Best picture-and this one least of all. Not one thing special about this other than the blessed silence. An enjoyable movie for what it's worth but forgettable within minutes. Maybe it's my aga-but I've appreciate cartoons before-this one is a trifle. If this is the best movie any of you have seen in 2008 then I really worry for the class of movies and movie goers. We are in bad bad shape-and now Quantum of Solace makes a magillion dollars. Possiblythe worst Bond movie in 20 years. All this is just a function of people being used to going to the movies weekly and whatever is the big movie for that week becomes the biggest movie of the week. It's getting colder so more people go-I'm sure Twilight will be next weeks monster and prove absolutely nothing. Movie going and film making is deteriorating as quickly as our economy. Maybe the brad pitt, mclint eastwood, leo/winslet movies will redeem but they won't make money like Wall-E and Twilight. We're lucky if we get 2 really good normal films a year-and one or 2 super duper overdone films (this year we got dark knight and iron man-and for that I'm happy) After all this time-it finally came out on dvd today-and i promised i’d give it a chance after the uber-excitement-the gushing-the talk of Wall E as Best Picture nom.

It has a beautiful message, that we should see the destruction being done to our planet and try to stop it (honestly, why would someone be opposed to that idea?). For those who don't want to look at this truth, there is an excellently done plot that captures your attention with likable characters, and well as amazing animation. Basically, the movie is about saving the world (if not 700 years later than it should have been). I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!!

The great things about this movies are I don't care how many people says crap about this. It doesn't matter. The movie was Great, Brilliant. Perfection. It was the best of 2008 SO FAR. But if you still hate it there are plenty of brainless movie out there... It will get a nominations a lot. The great things about this movies are I don’t care how many people says crap about this.
