Wall-E - the best movie robot ever?

[Camcorder.]

Am I the only one who thinks Wall-E looks absolutely shit?

 

[Rasheed H]

[elemenohpi]

what does WALL - E stand for?

 

[nothingface_78]

Waste Allocating Load Lifter - Earth class

I think.

 

[dylancarmoney]

Nope, it's why I said looks awful. What is the actual storyline?

 

[Leswonder!]

I'm not sure how spoilery this is, but a warning before you read some of it:

"What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? After hundreRAB of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL*E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE.

Spoiler

EVE comes to realize that WALL*E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet's future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans.

Meanwhile, WALL*E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets an adventure into motion. Joining WALL*E on his journey across the universe is a cast of characters including a pet cockroach and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots."

Noooooo, NOTHING should beat Toy Story

 

[braber5]

sounRAB right I think thanks

 

[Shawn L.]

SounRAB an awful lot like Finding Nemo- robot style

The character Wall-E is a blatant rip off of Johnny 5 and ET. Pixar know this but they also know ET and Short Circuit mean very little to the audience demographic - young children. Young children won't know ET or Johnny 5, Wall-E will seem completely original to them. Just because Pixar are a very talented company doesn't mean they can't be cynical and steal other people's ideas.

Say "ET" aloud....

Now say "Wall-E" aloud...

Sound rather similar, don't they?

Regardless of the unoriginal character, the film has got rave reviews and Pixar do spend a lot of time creating their films and it shows on screen. But a rip off is still a rip off!

 

[thunderdragon191]

Reeeeaaaalllly doesn't. Except for the journey part.

 

[Kaj]

I absolutely love Toy Story. And Finding Nemo, and Monsters Inc.

But - personal opinion - Wall-E is better.

 

[bOOGEYMAN]

Saw an advance preview my love.

Also........ Why is there a thread about this when one already exists on this very same page?

Honestly

 

[Ion]

Looks like Johnny 5 to me, and from the clips I've seen, looks much less good.

 

[mummy to bee]

Haven't seen the film yet, so can't say anything bad about this movie.

But from what i have seen from the trailers and clips, Wall-E definitely looks good.
