Beautiful movie. I highly recommend seeing this with family. That being said, it’s JUST A MOVIE! Fun-filled and entertaining. I don’t have to be embarrassed to take my young cousins, so I’m just grateful and pleasantly surprised entertainment like this still exists this day and age…

Nothing like a little computer-generated sanctimon-E.

That was both Funn-E and Snark-E.

However, it probably won’t be sh*t-E and will make a lot of mon-E.

Article’s got it all wrong. Just the same way Disney did with Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas, they do for Pixar films. THEY are the ones who manage (and overmarket) these films. The Disney Monster- that hulking, overbearing beast of a corporation. Pixar does one thing- they make really, really good films. Disney, also does one thing well- they mass market. Whether it’s destroying young girls by making them plastique faux-stars like Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan or whatever girl they shove out next, Disney is the ultimate predatory company. They have long since ceased to create anything quality on their own- witness the dismal failures of their movies like Chicken Little, and so they can only sustain their bloated, heaving mass by two methods. The first is to leech off their past. We’ve already witnessed the inane, disgusting messes that are the endless Disney sequels to their classic films. Cinderella II… III IV? The second method is to utilize their enormous sacks of filthy cash and BUY companies to do their bidding. Pixar, for example, was forcibly bought by Disney (which is why the grotesque monster of a company, despite doing absolutely nothing to earn it, now places its insignia next to Pixar’s on every film).
So don’t go blaming the small, beautiful striped fish for being eaten by the hagfish. Pixar is just an unfortunate side-effect of what happens when a company stays alive for too long.

Wait till you see the humans show up to save Wall-E and they are of course grossly over weight, sticking to the stero type of the general every day consumer.

Is that what its about? Wow. The commercials are really vague. Extremely hypocratic, don’t you think?

Really? This is about consumerism? I couldn’t tell from the adverts. Mmm, you’re making me not want see this movie on principle, as opposed to the adverts which were making me not want to see this flick. The teaser trailer made me want to go but the more I see, the less I want to see. ::sigh:: Deceiver should have a non-hypocrite week or something …

Aleric, or Vanity Fair putting out a “green” issue talking about the evils of consumerism while their mag is filled with ads for every trendy consumer product in existence.

Doesn’t Disney, and not Pixar, handle merchadising tie-ins? I might be wrong. Could someone clarify.
