I'm actually excited for this movie.

Those crazy Pixar kids amaze me. They can take a robot... something that we can't really identify with and make it not only entertaining, but cute as hell.

I have mixed feeling about it...could be good or could end up like crap I will probably see it when it falls off the internet truck

[letshavetea]

Well... think of it this way... has Pixar made a bad film yet?

I have faith in em.

I'm always excited about Pixar movies, and this one is no exception. The only one I haven't liked so far is Ratatouille --- but Wall-E looks to be very different from that, and a lot more like the original dialog-less Pixar shorts.

That's a shame, Ratatouille is my favorite Pixar movie so far.
Wall-E looks like it could be good, I'll probably end up waiting for the video release to watch it though. The quality of the visuals seems very good from the trailers at least.

Videos? In MY 21st century?
It's more likely than you think.

DVD is still video. It's just on a disc instead of a tape. Fun fact.

I went to see it yesterday. I HIGHLY recommend it ---- probably Pixar's best movie since Toy Story, and that's pretty high praise....

6th best movie ever. Statistics never lie.

[chocobojoe]

those charts lie

Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back should be #1

God damn people, I saw it last Friday and it was good for your standard Pixar film, but it's not "omigawd 6th best movie ever" good. I'd say Nemo and Toy Story were both better films.

fatties

I want to see it, but it's not going to be released here until late December.

Sigh.

Pixar died when they got bought out by Disney to me and I am yet to see to the otherwise.

I can point out when Pixar jumped the shark as well. They went through the trouble to get Jeremy Clarkson (Main Presenter of Top Gear, the biggest car show in the world) for the voice of Harv, then decide to have that used only for the UK version and Disney brought in Jeremy Piven (BOOOOO!) for the US version.

All the same people are still writing and directing the Pixar movies, regardless of whether they are now owned by Disney or not. Pixar has never has a flop, Wall-E is currently #1 at the box office AND 96% at Rotten Tomatoes, hardly jumping the shark.

Then explain why Disney has manipulated more of the decisions being carried forward in the last 2 Pixar films? Honestly, I don't buy that Pixar is truly a separate entity despite the conditions laid out when Disney bought them as a direct result of that.

As for Jumping The Shark, quite a few things jumped despite still having a termendous amount of success. (Of note being that the Simpsons jumped after the "138th Episode Spectacular" and yet 13 years later it's still going.) What I saw of Wall-E just felt more homogenized than the prior Pixar works which prompted me to not bother with the film. (Which is a damn shame as well cause Pixar was good.)
