DVD Review: Wall*E: Special Edition (2008)

21 November 2008 7:21 PM, PST

Maybe someday a Pixar flick will tank at the box office, but that day didn.t come in 2008. With a $222 million gross, the summer.s Wall-e fell into box office territory pretty similar to its predecessors, as the vast majority have earned somewhere in the mid-$200 million range. And given its unusual subject matter and story-telling style, I think it.s reasonable to believe only Pixar could.ve done so well with the tale at hand.

Set more than seven centuries in the future, humans overwhelmed the Earth with all their garbage and abandoned the planet until it again becomes habitable. .Wall-e. stands for .Waste Allocation Load Lifter . Earth Class.. That means Wall-e is a robot created to clean up the tremendous amount of trash that covers the Earth so people can eventually return. Wall-e used to have partners, but they.ve all broken down, so he remains the only cleaning droid.

"Everything's getting tight, money's getting tight and there's the credit crunch - so it's the time to go out and be inventive." He added.

"We'll shoot it guerilla-style," he continued, "using gorillas to actually shoot it. We're going to give them cameras...

"No, we're going to just get in there and maybe not have permission to do things, but just film it.
