Jun 18 2007Pixar's Wall-E Teaser Trailer
Pixar is now arrogant enough that the trailer for their new movie is mostly just them talking about how they came up with another out-of-this-world amazing concept. We're meant to be so smitten with these geniuses that just hearing them say they thought of Wall-E at the same lunch where they came up with Finding Nemo sends us into insulin shock. (They cleverly avoid mention whose toilet they were on when inventing Cars.)
If the voice at the end is at all an accurate representation of how the main character will sound, the only valid plot would be people repeatedly slapping Wall-E and telling him to shut his annoying mouth.

The Robot Looks and Sounds like "Short Circuit"

The music is the same music that was used in "Brazil."

That song is called "The Office". People need to stop using it. It was great in Brazil, it's a great song, but it's in all sorts of trailers for movie that have nothing to do with Brazil. Matchstick Men had it, Sicko has it, now this. I'm sure I missed some, and it's getting obnoxious.
I'm taking this all way too seriously. Damn.

I'm glad someone else admits that Cars sucked. Just terrible. I was really feeling pixar when they broke ties with disney, but now that they handed over their prostate to the disney devil, I just refuse to give them respect. Knowing how disney grabs stuff from other peoples creation then calls it theirs makes me sick. Example: "Disney's Doug". But I do still have the original "Little Mermaid" vhs case with the giant dick as the centerpiece. Something like that, you'd be crazy to get rid of. Pervert.

Man, I can't wait to sit through an hour and a half of the b@$t@rd son of Johnny Five and Rosie the robot talking about his feelings. Yay!!!

Wow wtf is up with you all. "I Watch Stuff" is written by some of the lamest excuses for writers I have ever seen. "Ok 1st paragraph we describe the news, 2nd paragraph I make some stupid joke about THAT news! It's brilliant!" Come on guys, I know you're all no talent hacks but do you really need to promote one of your own to head geek? Please stop ripping on Pixar for making quality films. I will take their worst movies (apparently Cars?) over boring crap like Ice Age anyday. Besides, "Ratatouille" is easily the best movie so far this summer.

Is Wall-E a movie based on Wal-Mart?

I'm happy to see people have already seen that this is a short circut rip-off, much like Monsters Inc.'s premise was obviously borrowed from that Fred Savage flick Little Monsters.

Nice way to miss the point of the site Matt.
Never saw Cars, but this will be a fun DVD rental on a rainy day.

Rattatouie does not appeal to me. Then again I think "our" collective fascination with Rachel Ray is worth vomiting over. Again and again. Cars sucked but it was also Doc Hollywood. The Incredibles though was pretty damn slick. One more puke for Rachel Ray.
