Disney Pixar Movie, Wall-E Info

By Rosemarie Hess

Arriving to theaters on June 27 of '08, Disney Pixar's "Wall-E" was a huge hit. Having millions of hits, critics ranked this film highly. Between the laughs, and the tears, this movie is over-all a heart warming animated film. Wall-E has gained many friends since the release date, and has quickly raised his popularity level!

WALL-E has been nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars. This is such a milestone! No animated movie has ever won Best Picture. This film not only represents friendship and the extend that some go to keep it alive, but it also symbolizes love. Some of you might laugh at that remark, but when you can feel a connection between two animated characters, you know it has been put together very precisely.

Small in size but big at heart, Wall-E embarks on a journey that could change destiny forever. This trip could could change the fate of robots and mankind. This small robot has no idea that what he will find in outer space could take over the entire world. The reason Wall-E left his normal lifestyle is because he met another robot, Eve. Eve stole his heart immediately, and when she left for the distant future, Wall-E followed along like a little puppy.

Wall-E's purpose is to clean up the waste that covers the earth. He picks up, piles up, and compresses trash. While at the job site, he encounters something very strange. Something that has never happened before. Me meets Eve, which came from a rocket ship that landed in the junkyard spontaneously. Wall-E feels attraction towards Eve, which is why he takes the long journey back to the future with her. Eve does not know the small robot came along.

When wall-e arrives to the distant future, he is preoccupied with Eve, whom he first left for. But, things start to uncover. He begins to realize that not only his kind, but humanity could be in jeopardy due to imbalances. I am not going to give away the ending. You will have to watch it for yourself!

In a short duration, I will discuss a couple o the cast members that play a role in this movie. Successful Ben Burtt voices two characters in the movie, Wall-E and MO. Ben is very productive in american sound designing. He was involved in many world phenomenon movies including Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, E. T. The Extra-Terrestrial, and Star Wars.

Costar, Ellissa Knight, is the voice of Eve. Ellissa plays in other animated films, as well. She plays Tia in the animated movie Cars, a woman in the restaurant in Rataouille, and Lil in Toy Story 3. You can see that she is involved in many animated Pixar animated films. Other voices heard in Wall-E are made up of Kathy Najimy who voices Mary, John Ratzenberger who voices John, and Fred Willard who voices Shelby Forthright - BnL CEO.

If you haven't already, go enjoy this movie. It is filled with laughs, but it also has it's sad moments. It has a heart warming plot. If you like animated movies, you will love this one. Disney Pixar creates sensational animated films. This is another movie to add to your Pixar collection! Watch it, love it, spread the word!
