WALL-E - (2008) - Andrew StantonYay! WALL-E!!! Isn't he so cute? If you can't tell, I'll decide for you, yeah, he's cute! So freakin' what if he looks sort of like Johnny 5 from Short Circuit! Johnny 5 was pretty cute too. WALL-E is cuter though. So now that you understand my opinion of WALL-E's physical appearance, let's talk about the movie...
Ok, so, WALL-E stands for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class.
Pretty much he's a little machine that rolls around crushing and organizing our garbage 700 years in the future. One day, while WALL-E is just doin' his thang, another robot comes down to earth and her name is EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator) which WALL-E pronounces EV-A and it's so freaking adorable. EVE is sent from outerspace by the humans who have been living there to find plant life to evaluate whether or not Earth is inhabitable again. She does find a plant and once she does, she shuts down and she must be taken back to the humans and WALL-E who is in love with her has to follow...
This movie is really great and funny and sweet and I totally think everybody needs to see it. It's very interesting- pretty much the first half of the movie there is no dialogue (WALL-E and EVE can only say each other's names). And it's really scary to think what life could be like 700 years from now... trash piled to the sky, robots left behind to clean it up, every single person obese floating around on personal hovercraft on a spaceship, machines and computers rule. It's creepy because it's not completely unbelievable that that could happen. Let's try to make sure it doesn't okay? It wasn't very pretty.

That sounds kind cute and social commentary-y so I might have to check it out!
Alan Smithee praised this film highly when it was released.
