I can't say much about the strange and wonderful Wall-E before the movie opens Friday or the Disney people will hunt me down and take my first born. But I can recommend catching up on a couple of sci-fi classics to get you in the mood (and perhaps help things make a little more sense). 1. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), in which Hal, the ship's computer brain, decides to take things into his own hands (and shows a remarkable grasp of lipreading). Stupid humans. What do they know? 2. Metropolis (1927), the silent slice of dystopia in which the masses are all-too-easily placated - until they decide not to be. Sorry. That's all I got for now. (Except that the photo is courtesy of Disney/Pixar). |

I can't get past the fact that cutie Wall-E is in fact No. (Johnny) 5 from Short Circuit. While I can't speculate on Wall-E's tendency to be all "I hate the world," he looks a lil too sweet to disco out to "More Than A Woman" with Ally Sheedy.
