WALL-E

From the myriad of issues that matter to me like US foreign policy, the Palestinian struggle, Egypt’s cluster-*bleep* of a state, the latest Coldplay album, and the fact that Radiohead is the greatest band to walk the Earth, I’ve chosen to write my first post on a movie I saw last night: WALL-E.  

WALL-E lives up to its cute-o-meter expectations.  While most movies employ some kind of suspension from logic (like robots having feelings), WALL-E cleverly humanizes the machine with as little dialogue as you can imagine.  Two words dominate this Pixar picture: WALL-E and EV-A.  It usually takes more to humanize wildlife, breathing animals which at some point break out into a catchy song in movies of this ilk.  However, somehow WALL-E’s binocular-like lenses (eyes) are more expressive than actual words.  WALL-E breaks away from the formula Disney/Pixar movies while staying true to the simple love story between two robots and the fate of robot-dependent humans with an apparent obesity epidemic.  I wondered, if machines were so abundant, wouldn’t there be a treadmill lurking around somewhere?  Overall, this movie is definitely worth seeing for people of all ages.
