After a lot of speculation and guess work, someone has finally blown the lid off Pixar’s most mysterious upcoming movie project, WALL-E. All we really knew about the film till now was that it’s about a robot, and it takes place in the future. But the guys over at Jim Hill Media have uncovered what they believe to be incredible details about the film’s plot, it’s title, it’s characters, and everything else Pixar fans have been wondering about.
I’ll hit a few of the highlights here, and try to skip most of the hardcore spoilers.
First, they claim to know what the title means. WALL-E stands for Waste Allocation Load Lifters -- Earth Class, and the film is about a future in which Earth has become so overrun by trash that it’s uninhabitable for humans. 700 years before the movie takes place, the entire human race lives in an orbiting space ship, and sends robots down to the planet to clean it up. Flash to the present, and the project has failed. Only one robot is left on Earth still at work cleaning the place, and his name is WALL-E.
Jim Hill then goes into a lot of details of the plot, suffice to say that WALL-E eventually ends up in space and the adventure begins. The whole film sounds like a massive, message movie about the slothful, wasteful, destructive path the human race is already on and where it could take us. The really shocking thing in Jim Hill’s synopsis is that they say that a HUGE chunk of WALL-E has no dialogue. For all intents and purposes, at least a third of the movie will be a silent film, unless you count robot beeps as talking.
Their complete breakdown is full of spoilers, so if you don’t want to have the movie ruined for you, you might not want to click over there to read their massive, in-depth, spoiler-filled article. If what they say is true, WALL-E is going to be one hell of a big risk for Pixar. It stands a good chance off pissing some people off, confusing others, and winning lots and lots of Academy Awards.
