  1. Happy New Year, brotherbear!

    You never fail to deliver when I need a pick-me-up, and reacting to this movie is just πŸ’–

    (My top 3 Pixar movies of all time, btw, is 3 > Wall E, 2 > RATATOUILLE, 1 > Toy Story 3 tied equally with Inside Out…. so I guess you know which title in ur poll I'm voting for 😊)

    CHEERS!!!!

  2. Yeah, its a bit weird. But loved Wall-E! You are correct the movie you were thinking of is 2001 A Space Odyssey with the computer having a single red "eye" and the music as the Captain starts to walk on his own is the music from that film. I would definitely see it if you haven't and its counterpart 2010 is really good too!

  3. Happy new year! I enjoyed this movie a great deal, but you’re absolutely right, this has always felt like a big swing from Pixar. It’s a very atypical animated film and I can understand it not being everyone’s favorite. It’s up there for me, probably in my top 10 animated films, but I fully recognize how unusual the movie is. Not in a bad way, just unexpected I think.

    One of the things that got me the most is how easily you can see our own world devolving to that degree. It was interesting to see Pixar tackle a bit of commentary in that sense. I also really appreciated the limited dialogue and how easy it was to sympathize with Wall-E and EVE, even with them being robots. It was refreshing to see a different take on characters in an animated film. Ballsy, I think. And still a very sweet movie.

  4. Wall-E loses his personality because having to change his motherboard effectively returns him to factory settings.
    He's solar powered, so that's why he needs to bask in the sun periodically to charge his battery.
    Earth has massive dust storms because it's dry AF and doesn't have vegetation to tie top soil nor break wind flow.

  5. Wall-E doesn’t worship the sun. His batteries charge on solar energy, and when Eve shut down, he thought maybe she was low on power and needed recharging.

    Nothing whatever to do with pregnancy. Robots do not gestate (to the best of my knowledge).

  6. Honestly, I think Wall-E kinda does an even better job than Idiocracy with this dystopian scenario. With Idiocracy, the problem is kinda just shown as "stupid people", and the solution is for a genetically superior guy from the past to rule over them. Wall-E also shows that people being easily manipulated is a problem, but in showing BNL again and again, it also makes clear that the main problem is corporate power and propaganda and shows that even in this dystopia, people ultimately still have the potential to do good. It's quite beautiful, especially since its ending is not quite an "and they lived happily ever after", but still hopeful for humanity.

  7. Yes, the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey" has the famous theme which you can hear when the captain stands up on his feet for the first time here, and
    the scary kiIIer computer "Hall 9000" from that movie was clearly inspiration for the design of Auto in this movie. I love
    that they call him "Auto" bcs automatization is
    the real viIIain of this movie and feelings are the winners. Yes,in a way, Eve is the mother of all humans, like Eve in the Bible and WALLE does indeed kind of 'impregnate' her with the plant. John and Mary,the two humans, also have biblical names. The
    movie is simply a sci fi genre πŸ™‚ a bit of comedy, a bit of romance, some action, but mostly a terrifying future….. it's made for all generations.

  8. Ratatouille also happy New Year’s πŸŽ‰ πŸŽ†

    Edit: how are they still able to walk? What about the bone density and gravity on earth. because it doesn’t look like they’ve been exercising up there.πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  9. *i think the humans reproduce by In vitro fertilisation (IVF) . They probably all have obligatory surgeries/semendonations once or twice in their life and then the babies are developed in incubators.

  10. Don't forget Auto-Pilot skewered and electrocuted Wall-E's mainboard, the initial reason Wall-E was telling EVE to go back to Earth. But after she replaced his mainboard, we're to believe he's essentially been factory reset. He's not Wall-E anymore, he's a Wall-E unit, Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class.

    Also, the debris field around Earth is already there in real life. Communication satellites of various types that have been sent up with no plan for reclamation. They end up breaking down, and are simply replaced with others. It's a legitimate concern the world's space programs have to take into account with space missions.

  11. So, you did miss "BURN-E", a "meanwhile, elsewhere" kind of short (similar to Jack-Jack Attack and Auntie Edna), but this one was things happening throughout the entire movie, and there was no one time when it would have made sense to switch to the short before continuing.

    Also, If you watch Ratatouille, there's a Short that goes with that (Your Friend the Rat), but that's just the a couple of characters from the movie getting a bit more screen time – if you decide to watch that short, watch it after Ratatouille. (and regardless, Ratatouille is full of delicious looking food – be prepared to get hungry watching it)

  12. Definitely Ratatouille! Love that movie. I was less impressed by Raya but I know a lot of people like it so maybe I'll like it more after watching you watching it. πŸ˜† But Ratatouille first!

  13. I've loved it since I first saw it years ago. And we're basically in the same condition here with our faces glued to our devices, sitting, and staring at screens. Only those in service, or other positions that cause us to physically do something are not in the condition these characters are. We all need to do better, eat healthier, and get physical activity including me. Thank you for doing this and I suggest you watch the whole movie so you can understand the whole story.

  15. one of my top Disney/Pixar movies. There are several moments that gets me in the feels still even as I was watching clips of your reactions. This is one of those movies I could put on the background and let play over and over. So much love for this movie. I even named my 2 cats Wall-E and Eve-uh.

  16. Consider for reaction: "Gargoyles: Awakening" – 90s Disney animated movie that continued into a series. Interesting plot, original characters. And no one on YouTube had done a reaction on it!

  17. Here's a vote for Ratatouille.

    Beyond that, this movie is a combo love story and commentary on climate change. It works well as both because it's less heavy-handed on the eco message (yes, showing a world covered in garbage is less heavy handed, they didn't have some 'evil corporation' deliberately doing this for greed and not caring about anything else, and the extent to which said 'evil corporation' showed up being bad was fairly minor). I think one of the things that makes this movie is how little talking there is in it. We've grown so used to certain things, like talking in film, music with every scene, laugh tracks, and so on… we've somewhat forgotten how to fill in the blanks for ourselves. Not entirely, of course, people still read books where all the visual and sound has to come from us, and I don't see that changing anytime soon, but… I love this movie for making the audience do some of the heavy lifting interpretation-wise. Not a lot, just a bit, but at least it's there.

  18. I still love this movie. It is impressive how much emotion they can convey without saying a word. It was really well done.
    The people on the Axiom were, to me, a kind of warning of what can happen to us when we use technology to have all of our needs met. We become more sedentary and uninterested in a lot of physical activities. And those huge dust clouds were, giant, sandstorms that were rolling over the land. Without vegetation to secure the soil and threes to break up the wind, those storms would be like the ones in desert and plains.

  19. Happy New Year!
    Wall-E reminds me forcibly of Charlie Chaplin. He never really speaks, but his physicality says it all.
    He took her outside, I think, because he's solar powered, and assumes she is too.
    I love how emotive ALL of the robots are! Even their own version of the Isle of Misfit Toys! XD
    I love the little obsessive cleaning bot!
    I had forgotten how much I enjoyed this movie, and how much fun it was! Thank you for that!

  20. Wall-E is an old solar-powered robot, that's why all the electricity from the Axiom bots like Eve and Auto made him go crazy, because they're generating millions of times more energy than he is; it's also why he kept sticking Eve outside during the day, because he thought she was out of battery.
