Dec 18 2007'Wall-E' Trailer is Impossibly Charming, As Expected
When I want a Coke, I buy a Coke. I know from the label exactly what will be in a Coke, how refreshingly cool it will feel in my mouth, how sweet the high fructose corn syrup will taste on my tongue. No need to dump gallon after gallon of it over my head to remind me exactly how great Coca-Cola is.
Similarly, I don't need another precious trailer to Pixar's Wall-E. Yes, Pixar, I know you've "done it again," creating another expertly animated, ridiculously adorable world sure to delight children and adults alike with its humor and heart. So you can stop rubbing my face.
And, you know, it wouldn't kill you guys to make something shitty every now and then, remind us that you aren't necessarily evil androids appeasing the human masses until our destruction. The same goes for Radiohead.

I'm thinking this is the one where Pixar blows it, then again I was hoping the same for Cars, even though I knew better. I'm not sure why they just don't give us Incredibles 2, that's really all we want.
Now that I think about it I'm not sure how a metal ET can lose.

I love robots so this looks very cute and very cool. Also...Radiohead is the shit!

I've been coming here everyday for a year. Very amused by your outlooks and comments, and often find myself laughing. I've never posted a comment though. That Radiohead line just made my day though. Thank you for making my life happy for a second.

Robot is cool, wall e is cool. I am just worried that in Pixar there are people that believe that a talking car in cars world is funny and a (gay) mouse - that it's exactly a dirty mouse - that cook french shit it's funnier.
You're right twendy...gave us incredibles 2.

Ya'll too worried for a computer generated cartoon. It will be great and you will own the dvd.

I read the fouth comment four times and it never made any sense. You owe me two minutes of my life back.
I'm sure I'll see this on the opening weekend like everyone else. Pixar gets my support because they make a quality product every time.
Cars was a good animated movie, the only competion Pixar has in the animated storytelling department is Pixar, so comparing Cars to Toy Story 2 is like picking between a Vette or a Viper.
I'd like to see a Incredibles 2 as well.

The good thing about having a kid is you get to see movies like this. The bad thing about having a kid is that he just told me he wants to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. Yeah, I have got to put that kid up for adoption.

#7 I'm in the same boat only I already adopted the kid that wants to see it, so now what do I do? The return period expired years ago so I'm stuck with her and those retarded hip-hop chipmunks.

Seems like the only option is to tell your kids that the reason their goldfish died is because of chipmunks, don't name names, just leave it vague like that.
