WALL-E

I saw WALL-E the other day with Y and T. It was an astounding film that can't be recommended highly enough, and one of my favorite Pixar movies. The first half is particularly remarkable. Somehow Andrew Stanton managed to make a dystopian future sci-fi movie that everyone can enjoy. It should win Best Picture, it is a masterpiece of film making. 


The huge corporation in the movie BuyNLarge even has a pretty complete supporting website, complete with products to buy. Certain aspects of WALL-E reminded me of the future in Idiocracy, a very funny and biting satire of our potential future and/or present.
