Wall eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


Rodger and I saw Wall E yesterday. Very good, thought-provoking movie. I was also surprised at how it could keep my attention despite the very little dialog. Wall E was just so lovable in his need to be loved. And leave it to Disney to make a roach seem cute.

I loved the irony in Disney having a movie to send a message about what consumerism and waste will do to our planet, an irony that I don't think was lost on them as I saw the dinosaur from Toy Story on one of Wall E's shelves in his "house". It almost seems like Disney is shooting themselves in the foot by sending that message to children and I guess you do have to give them a lot of credit for making the movie despite that.


It really was a very clever, well done movie. Just when you think Disney can't outdo themselves they go and hit another one out of the park. They really make the most lovable characters. Plus you really have to love that when you leave the theater you will be saying Wall Eeeeeeeeeeee and Eve Uhhhhh for days.

What happens in Wall E, Stays in Wall E. No more WALL.... E.... every other second. Thanks for the movie and the fun weekend.

Toy Story was Pixar, not Disney!!! And Disney couldn't put out a good cartoon to save its life, so they bought Pixar a few years ago, so this is a Disney-Pixar movie.

Just sayin'.
