WALL-E, the Religion of Environmentalism
July 12th, 2008
Warning: Spoilers ahead!
Yesterday I went to see Disney/Pixar’s new animated motion picture WALL-E (or more correctly WALL·E), released on June 27, 2008. I had seen previews for the new film for many months, and had just recently heard that the critics were heralding the movie as one of the best of the year, perhaps even the best that Pixar Animation has ever produced. Indeed, our local Deseret News movie critic Jeff Vice said it’s “the best-looking of all the Pixar animated features to date” [1]. RottenTomatoes.com currently has a 97% approval rating on the film [2], and IMDB has it ranked the 19th best movie of all time [3]. The eminent Roger Ebert even gave it 3 1/2 stars [4]. But there is more to this story.
