Pixar's next one, I'm surprised there isn't a thread on it already.

A new trailer is up.

Apple - Trailers - WALL•E

This looks like another Pixar hit. The colors in the trailers are eye-popping. This is going to look so good in blu-ray.

**Pirate** · 03-12-2008, 05:14 PM

Wish I could post it.

reapersaurus · 03-12-2008, 05:15 PM

From the look of things, PIXAR may have (finally) fixed the problems with their teaser and early trailers.

IMO, their teasers have been terrible going back to Finding Nemo.
This one makes the subject material look intriguing, at least.

MJZ · 03-13-2008, 12:03 AM

Another Pixar hit.

MJZ · 05-15-2008, 07:09 PM

When I went to see Iron Man at my local cinema, they had this cardboard standee in the lobby:

**SilentBob** · 05-16-2008, 02:13 AM

Yeah we got our Wall-E unit back in Dec or Jan at my theater. If he is like ours he has a built in motion sensor. So anyone who walk by will be greated with either is name, Whoa, and/or that sound he makes in the trailer when he spits out his cube of trash.

He was shipped in the box he stands on. We were greated with a letter congradulating us on our purchase of the Wall-E Unit

Monterey Jack · 05-16-2008, 03:29 AM

What's the poster behind the Wall-E standee?

Not sure what number trailer it was that I saw on the front of Caspian this afternoon but it made me wanna see this more. Another homerun for Pixar. Battin' .1000 guys.

That's not such a good batting avg

On the otherhand, a 1.000 avg is perfect

umainebearman · 05-24-2008, 02:50 AM

My decimals sometimes go rouge. Good thing its wasn't one of my wayward exclamation points!!!!!

cherno · 05-26-2008, 01:03 AM

I hate red decimals. The rogue ones are almost as bad!

I think this movie is almost too cute for its own good. I am super excited to see it though. I just love how they have evoked emotion from the robot without using words and making percieved facial expression while maintaining his shape.

Starz had a special on the Pixar story with an additional 1/2 hour at the end for Wall-E. After seeing that I cannot wait to see this. I laughed my ass off. Besides the gorgeous animation, this story looks to be a blast.

MoonSka0 · 06-25-2008, 03:38 AM

I got to see this tonight. What an amazing movie! Easily my favorite Pixar film to date.

Thank God for Pixar. These are the types of family movies that I can actually take the family to and enjoy. We're seeing it this weekend. This one looks fantastic. I can't wait!

Wall-E doesn't talk. We've heard EVE talk and the humans so far in the trialers. His bleeps and bloops and whirls and ticks are emotive so I don't see a problem with communicating feeling. I would imagine that part of the performance would be enhanced by the visual though. I wonder what sight-impaired people would think of Wall-E the robot based just on the sounds.

One of my favorite characters, Gromit from the Wallace & Gromit claymation from Aardman Studios (and my avatar on the left), doesn't talk, as all of his emotions are conveyed through the eyes and the brow, along with body and hand gestures. Judging from the clips I've seen on Wall-E, Pixar has done a remarkable job doing the same thing, along with sound effects and gestures by the character.

Monterey Jack · 06-26-2008, 02:52 AM

Some of the most endearing animated characters of all time didn't speak (Dopey in Snow White, the Magic Carpet in Aladdin, ect.). And sound designer Ben Burtt, who did Wall*E's "voice", did similar duties for R2-D2, so I'd say we're in good hands.

As others have already stated, the fact that feelings and emotions had to be conveyed to the audience in a non-verbal manner really put the pressure on Pixar to deliver. In my opinion, they nailed it. Even Eve doesn't really speak, at least not in complete sentences anyway. Rather, she's able say two or three words.

I know exactly what you mean. I know I'm going to see this in theaters because it is one of those rare movies that my dad wants to go out and see. I'm so excited to see it.

Monterey Jack · 06-28-2008, 03:07 AM

Pixar's best since The Incredibles, and the best film of 2008, PERIOD.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.
