Saw Wall-E

Yesterday, I went to see Wall-E with Kitchen Empress. I really liked it, and know that I will be purchasing it when it comes out on DVD. It did many things very well, including bringing the robots to life, creating a believable storyline, continuing with the marvelous tradition of Pixar animation, and just being really fun.

It had some elements of Short Circuit in it (and the little Wall-E unit even looks a little bit like Johnny-5). However, the storyline for Wall-E is (imho) much better, and the little 'droid is even more likable than the admittedly quite affable J-5. (Truth be told, I really felt that the flesh-and-blood actors didn't really help sell those two films...)
