In July 2008, WALL-E was released on big screens across the United States. This little robot had a big message to share with us... and not the message you might think. Yes, there were themes of environmental awareness and paying more attention to the world around you. But there was a larger message to the entertainment industry.
Stories that use the techniques from silent film, slapstick, and vaudville can still entertain audiences. Who knew such a small robot packed such a huge punch? And with WALL-E coming to DVD this November, we can all relive the magic of what we saw on the big screen.
If you missed WALL-E in the theater, it's another fun animated feature from the animation wizards at Pixar. The titular character, WALL-E, is the last of a group of robots left behind to clean up a polluted Earth. Over the years, he's developed a few personality quirks. For example, he's friends with a cockroach and spends his days finding unique trinkets as he compacts trash into neat cubist piles. One day, a spaceship lands and he finds himself in love with a beautiful robot named EVE. The movie follows WALL-E on his adventures with EVE into outer space.
The 3-Disc Special Edition has two DVDs packed with great extras and a third DVD that provides a special digital copy so you can use it on the go.
Disc 1 includes the movie of course, as well as some fun bonus features.
"BURN-E" fills in what happens to the poor BURN-E robot outside the ship. This poor little robot goes through the wringer trying to replace a simple light on the outside the Axiom. BURN-E's job is to replace it. And this little seven-minute movie is integrated with what's happening on board the Axiom while WALL-E is on board. It's great to see some of those fun scenes from a different perspective.
"Presto" is of course the short film about the Amazing Presto and his rabbit Alec that preceded WALL-E's theatrical release. Alec adds a bit of mystery to Presto's act that goes beyond his stage presence — all for a tasty carrot.
