WALL-E

I saw this trailer, came here to hit the "New Topic" button for the first time ever in like four years, and the Geek has already won again, as is his habit.
But yeah, movie. That looks like a difficult character to animate expressions on. Inflexible features and all that.
Mister Incredible always kind of reminded me of what Zapp Brannigan would look like if Futurama was a creepy 3d show.
I'm not seeing it
You have to want to see it.

Lasseter says:
"WALL-E is the story about the last little robot on Earth. He is a robot that his programming was to help clean up. You see, it's set way in the future. Through consumerism, rampant, unchecked consumerism, the Earth was covered with trash. And to clean up, everyone had to leave Earth and set in place millions of these little robots that went around to clean up the trash and make Earth habitable again. Well, the cleanup program failed with the exception of this one little robot and he's left on Earth doing his duty all alone. But it's not a story about science fiction. It's a love story, because, you see, WALL-E falls in love with [Eve], a robot from a probe that comes down to check on Earth, and she's left there to check on and see how things are going and he absolutely falls in love with her."

EDIT: Maybe that's kinda spoiler-ish.
I did not know about this movie before now. It looks awesome, thank you for bringing this to my attention Geek.

I have great faith in Pixar.
that little "wall-e" at the end almost gave me diabetes it was so cute
I love you so much
God I am excited about this movie
The part with the guys just sitting there in the cafe made me chuckle for some reason >_>
My wife almost started to cry.

Daric listen to me
I've stopped yelling at you for a while, because I'm actually a nice dude
But fuck you, fuck you, I want you to ACTUALLY die
No, this looks incredible.
Now they'll need ANOTHER lunch in which to plan the next decade or more of Pixar.
The little teaser said Next Summer.
I was kidding!
This movie looks great.
But the first thing I thought of when I saw that robot was Johnny Number 5 or whatever the hell his name was.
Yeah. AICN had a big thing about it a while ago...
I never trust anything they say. Ever.
I don't either, but this thing was huuuuuuuuge.
Also, it was a link to an outside site.

That's AICN for ya. Anything of any significance is not actually from them, they just link someone else.
Also, probalby one of the worst website designs in the history of the internet.
