Overview
From the creators of “Finding Nemo” and “Cars” (as stated on the box) comes the movie Wall-e. I love “Finding Nemo”. “Cars” is okay. With Wall-e, I’m STILL trying to figure out the point to that movie was. Basically the first third of that movie was the robot running places doing stupid (okay, I guess it could have been mildly amusing) stuff. Yawn. Then he finds this plant and he puts it in a shoe. And he watches this old movie. THEN starts the ACTUAL movie. Enter Ev-e, space flight, and the amazing hover chairs.
Synopsis (spoiler alert)
Similar to “Eagle Eye” and “I Robot”, wall-e is a movie in which the robots take over the humans. Similar to “The Matrix”, they take over the humans by putting a computer screen in front of their faces (thus, capturing the minds). The presence of a computer screen in front of these human’s faces is similar to the way some teens text. They will go around, their phone will beep and then they have their face glue to the screen, and will miss anything going on. The end result is predictable, the go back to earth, the best character(the cricket) is STILL safe, and the people learn how to walk (even though they shouldn’t be able to after living their lives in those chairs, their legs wouldn’t be able to hold their body weight). Then all the people are amazed and happy, even though they will all die soon because they won’t know what to do. (I may be under estimating humans… maybe, but we can be pretty pathetic)
No moral stuff was brought into play. It was a Disney/Pixar production, so it was clean.
The movie was full of stupidity, and is good for younger audiences, just not for me. I would pick “I Robot” over Wall-e every time.

What were you doing up at 8:23 in the morning? Anyway Wall-e had no plot until half way through and I caught myself wondering when it would pick up. I suppose it's a good thing that kids learn what can happen to the earth if they litter and stuff like that. I however think there are other ways to address that. I think Pixar lost a lot of money on this movie and I hope they will regret making it as I regret watching it.
ReplyDeletewait plot?
ReplyDeletewhat plot?
(unfortunatly) i've seen this movie twice and STILL havn't found much of a plot beyod i-robot.
littering is never good. anyone else take issue with those idiotic morons who throw thier cigerettes (mostly) and other garbage out the window??? you wanna poison your own bodies fine. but don't go around in public smoking as second hand smoke is just as bad, and don't throw your garbage out the window. if its not good enough for your car then it isnt's good enough for the curb, grass, dirt, or your neibors car EITHER!
i'm done ranting now.
yeah, i agree that movie was almost a complete waste of money. you can advertise no littering in a GOOD movie.
i agree.
ReplyDeletelittering is never good.
I can see what you mean about IRobot having the same plot, but nevertheless it was a plot. And little children watching IRobot is probably not a good thing.
ReplyDeletetrue. but I never suggusted little children watch i robot. i merely suggust the same plot.
ReplyDeleteexcept irobot had more of a plot in 3 minites than wall-e will ever have even if you watched it 3 million times and then added the value of plot up together.
that would indeed be a sad exsistance.
almost as bad as watching a 1/2 hour of spongebob.
not that spongebob is a bad thing.
it's simply plotless. and stupid.
which i belive is the point.
