I initially thought Wall-E was going to be a dud, just because Pixar had such a long string of hits before this movie. The studio was due for a flop. I also thought this movie was a big risk. A movie with little dialogue? However, the risk paid off. This movie is a masterpiece! With barely any dialogie, Wall-E and Eve show more chemistry than most live actors.
Just watched Wall-E today for the first time. It's the opposite of 2001: A Space Odyssey, as Wall-E is all about how love transcends beyond humans throughout the universe - and sometimes you need one of those films
I know this comment is from 5 years ago (lol) but he's taking another stab at live action with 'Chairman Spaceman'. So we'll see if he can make the proper jump that Brad Bird did!
Went bad? In what way? He's still directing on a lot of different shows. I really hope he comes back to PIXAR to direct again. I really love his style.
The reason the movie was good was simple, story. Story is always the reason. The items mentioned were things that allowed a movie to be made but not why it was good. He is so far inside he cannot see why the movie is good any more instead he is concerned with process. Wall-e was a great movie but it was because of the fine execution of story. It would have worked with the old cell animation and still have been good because of the story.
29:09 yeah the critics are condescending of corse, those are the types of freaks who come up with woke ideologies that are now destroying Pixar. Wall E is a great movie of a great era of animation and tech developement.
@@jordanhenshaw Did you see the amount of waste the giant Wall-Es were pushing out in space? They had been doing that for 700 hundred years, and the Autopilot wanted humans to be in space forever. No recycling, just consume. The amount of food and other resources that had to be brought with them into space would not fit inot the ship, and they would soon run out of it. The only way for them to survive would be recycling everything.
