6 New Clips from 'WALL-E'
An instant Best Picture contender...
I have seen WALL•E and while I have been told to hold my review because I am so uber-influential (must be right, because others are posting it) I will tell you it is fantastic. It is an "A" movie if not an "A+". It is a "Must See" film that you will not regret watching more than once. It is Pixar's best film to date without a doubt.
I was asked if Disney/Pixar should have released it last week instead of this week and I replied, "They should have released it January 1 and let it run all year long." Seriously, I think the box-office crown for 2008 could very easily belong to the little robot named WALL•E and I will guarantee right now that this will be nominated for an Oscar Best Picture.
Now, to the clips. We have six of them… You can begin with any of the links below… Have fun and check out WALL•E this Friday, June 27, 2008. For more information, pics and cast information click here.
What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off?
Academy Award®-winning writer-director Andrew Stanton ("Finding Nemo") and the inventive storytellers and technical geniuses at Pixar Animation Studios ("The Incredibles," "Cars," "Ratatouille") transport moviegoers to a galaxy not so very far away for a new computer-animated cosmic comedy about a determined robot named WALL•E.
After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL•E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL•E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet's future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL•E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.
Joining WALL•E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach, and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.
Filled with surprises, action, humor and heart, "WALL•E" was written and directed by Andrew Stanton, produced by Jim Morris, co-produced by Lindsey Collins and features original and innovative sound design by Academy Award®-winner Ben Burtt ("Star Wars," "Indiana Jones," "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial").

Wow, I'm not sure I've ever seen you this enthousiastic.
You allmost sound like an ad. (has disney gotten to you too?)
If its really that good then I'll skip your review untill I've seen it myself.
A good heads-up like this is all I need. Thanks. (damn, you are influential! :D)
The Best Pic nom is an interesting call. I think it may be worthy of that but I wonder about the politics…
I think it is a guaranteed lock. There were rumblings that Ratatouille may sneak in after being the best reviewed film from last year and there seems to be a big desire to get an animated film in that category again, and for once, WALL-E actually deserves it.
One thing I am curious about, is the fact that Roger Deakins was involved in the cinematography and the look of the film. Could it be possible for a 100% animated film to get a cinematography nomination as well? I am almost positive this film will be included in sound design and perhaps even score.
