Wall-E
Anyone seen it yet?

I'm off to see it this evening in it's completed form. Last October, a test screening of the film was conducted in Portland and I was lucking enough to attend. The film was marvelous then even though only being 80% complete and I can only imagine what the completed film is like now.

I can not overstate how great this movie is. Easily the best thing ever made by humans.

I just got back from seeing it completed and can't overstate enough how great this film is, especially the first 45 minutes or so.

Re: Wall-E
I can see why the couple of reviewers out of a thousand didn't like the movie; the movie's somewhat force-fed commentary on humans, consumerism, and how we're killing the environment.

Besides that it's was truly excellent. You can tell they spent a lot of time putting a lot of detail into the film. I just love the way Wall-e moves around sometimes. That alone makes me smile. I must say that Pixar is really awesome for making a film without any dialogue for nearly the first 40 minutes. This truly speaks to the genius work of sound designer Ben Burtt.

A 97% on Rotten Tomatoes!!!

Re: Wall-E
i think the qualities of this movie could be overstated, like how anyone hypes a movie too much and their friends arent as impressed as they thought they should have been.
but its probably the most adorable movie i've ever seen. and the whole 'environment-conscious' thing could be ham-fisted, or it could just be geared towards small kids. this whole movie actually seemed geared much more to the children instead of the overall family, jokes-for-everyone film... which was actually kind of nice.
with this and ratatouille, pixar are on the biggest upswing yet after the middling 'cars' and 'finding nemo'
