What do you think?

I think it looks like a summer blockbuster! That there will be toys coming soon to a fast food chain and that the action toys will be in stores before the end of April. Which naturally means, it's a theater movie that my kids will 'drag' me to see. Can't wait!

I think it looks absolutely cute, and can't wait to see it!

They have started to play the preview for this before pretty much all movies now. Not much of a wait now I guess.

[In2Kermit]

It's going to be cute! Of course, all of Pixar's movies are cute!

Wow!!! Here's part of one review.

I would say that Pixar had never attempted anything this grandiose before, but really, I can't think of anyone that has. It is a singularly perfect endeavor, a monument to what can be done both in terms of animation and storytelling. It is genius. Absolute genius. And it is adorable.

Wall-E is without a doubt a message film, but one that has been carefully honed to deliver razor sharp observations and profound assessments on the nature of our society.

Most importantly, while it satires modern life and attacks a number of issues - from our rampant consumerism, our growing obesity problem, our slow progression towards a big box/one corporation world, and of course our blatant disregard for the beauty of the world around us for the sake of all those other things - it does so lovingly and through humor.

Wall-E is in a class by itself, a nearly indescribable masterpiece of epic proportions that will, regardless of commercial success, be regarded in the film community as one of the very best films in the history of animation. This will no doubt be spoken of in the future alongside such works as Fantastic Planet andFantasia. It is arguably the best thing Disney has ever had their name on and clearly the best with the name Pixar. It will take the Academy Award for best animated next year without anything resembling a fight and will no doubt be on almost every Top ten list you read at the end of the year.

I think he liked it.

It seems like a very interesting movie. Not only have I not seen a Pixar movie in so long (plus I was too young to truly appreciate it, since kids [and moms] are easily impressed), but I like the messages of how basically how we should change the world before it's too late, etc.

[Ginafish]

LOL! Mom's aren't "easily impressed", we are just grateful for anything that babysits entertains the kiddies long enough for us to sit for more than 10 minutes straight. And if we get to hear kids giggles, that's just fuel for later, when our engines start again.

Mary (14), Rachel (10) and I just finished seeing this awesome movie.

The 14 year old even liked it! The 10 year old was giggling through out. Dad giggled a little too. 

It was excellent. Animation was the best I have seen. The character's were awesome. Amazing what they can do with animated robots who can only say a name. That alone blew me away. Excellent story line too. I know why the review which started this thread was so positive.
