Best Film of 08 so Far...

involves trash, "Hello Dolly", obesity, the cosmos, and a robot that speaks few comprehensible words.

About a year ago, I wrote on Lindsey and my blog about how much I enjoyed and was impacted by the immense creativity of Pixar's "Ratatoullie". And now, a year later, Pixar has outdone itself again.



This film is packed with genuineness.
Genuinely authentic
Genuinely funny
Even, genuinely insightful into the core of humans.

Andrew Stanton, writer and director of this film, clearly was supported by a staff who was willing to take a risk making a film with these elements using a trash-collecting robot as the protagonist (not the easiest premise and character to attract mass audiences).

The art of WALL-E is incredible...Thomas Newman has yet written another great film score...the story is insightful, tastefully satirical, and definitely in touch with the core of humanity, the need to love and be loved.

This film is also a clear example of how one can make entertainment with artistic merit and still be family friendly.

I don't want to say much more because I do not want to give away the surprises of this film...just go see it.
