Wall E




It knew it would be good, if only because all my friends stateside spoke good things about it. Thanks, Craintrain.

I wonder, if Finding Nemo was more child-oriented in humor with lots of jokes for the parents, and Wall E was a major departure from kiddie humor but still overall enjoyable, do you think animation could make a completely adult-oriented film? Even better, do you think animators could make good drama?

When I saw it there was not a single child in the theater. In fact, I was with ęł 's cousins last weekend and they had heard of it, but had no interest in seeing it. We tried, but they said it looked boring.

I think that animators made that switch long ago, but drama might be a stretch though. I wouldn't mind seeing the Greg Louganis Story in animation. Or maybe a new Cool World???
