Trailer looked good, but i'm wondering how they can stretch that over an hour and a half. Plus, it would look weird me going to see this myself.

The Eva thing was slightly annoying, since her name is Eve. | |

Aye, still looks shite.
Interesting to see that it's got no dialogue. | |

It does have dialogue, though the first 20-30 minutes is mostly dialogue free. | |

Saw it this evening - it's fucking BRILLIANT. Spent the whole thing either in tears laughing, or just in tears (I may be hormonal...) | |

Its a solid film even if it is a bit heavy-handed with the old environmental preaching. | |

| Re: Wall-E - Pixar's 2008 movie.
having 2 leads with limited dialogue was refreshing as animated features are tend to be over reliant on having big names voice characters. Wall E didn't have to fall back on that as it was good enough in other departments to be an entertaining and charming jaunt. Quote:

Maybe I should stop looking for satisfyingly subtle social commentary in animations which are essentially aimed at kids.
Meh.  | |
