This movie goes deep into thinking about our environment - a timely topic in this day and age, and what kind of humanity will there be in this distant future? Big-box stores, massive corporations, excess consumerism and throw-away culture. These are the issues this movie faces and what happens in this world in the future.

The Humans Began as Blobs

Did you know that the human characters aboard the Axiom spaceship began as gelatinous wobbly green aliens? It wasn't until the director and other decision-makers at Pixar were about half way done with development that they decided to turn the blobby aliens into humans who had suffered bone loss and became obese after centuries of automation and micro-gravity.

Which is a great theme for a Pixar movie famous for compelling stories, wouldn't you say?

When this film was released on DVD in November 2008, BURN-E was added as a special feature short film. It interweaves with the plot, which makes it very entertaining!

The other Pixar short film that was released with the WALL-E DVD was Presto, which is about a Magician named Presto and Alec Azam the rabbit who put on an unforgettable show.
