WALL-E, The adorable Gargabe Compactor

TheBoredIT — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 23:01:26 +0000

You gotta love Pixar Movies. Now it’s the time for The adorable WALL-E, garbage collector, and his trigger-friendly girlfriend,EVE, for a space adventure to deliver laughs and trill.

Yes, Wall-e does look like a forgotten son of Johnny-5, from “Short Circuit” Movie. Johnny-5 was a military machine. Wall-E is a garbage compactor. But then, Johnny-5 was the one that went crazy. I can understand the tension in the family

Wall-E has the most disgusting and curious sidekick: a cockroach. Guess if you live in a inhabitable world, a cockroach is the best thing you can get. Plus, is pretty impervious to anything, even being run over.

What impressed me about the character is the ability to express emotion with a face that only has eyes hardly some eyebrows! However, he manages to express fear, joy, happiness, etc. I think this is a great result from Pixar.

The messages in the movie (we are too lazy, we depend to much on machines, we are poisoning our planet) are a little condescending, but remember that this is a movie for kids.

Ah, but don’t forget to visit the official site. The videos are a great laugh. The one with the vacuum cleaner is to die for.

Dr. Cockroach, PhD.

DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. announced today plans to use chips from Intel Corp for the creation of 3-D movies. On march 27, 2009 we’ll see the result in the domestic release of “Monsters vs. Aliens”, a DreamWorks’ 3-D animated movie.

I visited monstersvsaliens.com and looks good, with funny caracters an amazing cast and interesting story about a Califormia Girl (nice star) who’s unexpectedly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk -those space rocks, so untrustable!. As a result of this crappy incident, she grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall, and is instantly labeled a “monster” named Ginormica. And guess what? Military jumps into action -surprised? and she is captured and held in a Secret Goverment compound -can’t belive it! The world soon will learns that the military has been quietly rounding up other monsters over the years -I rather prefer space rocks than military.

Cast is super cool, with Reese Witherspoon (’Walk the Line’, ‘American Psycho’) as Susan Murphy a.k.a. Ginormica; Golden Globe Winner Hugh Laurie (who doesn’t like Dr. House?) as Dr. Cockroach, PhD. and other amazing actors.

I just love the idea: Monsters vs. Aliens! It’s time to play with some of my favourite monsters toys: glow in the dark Zombies -get yours! but be careful, don’t miss the ‘How to survive a Horror Movie’ book, it’s a must be in every monsterhunter’s library, explaining topics as convince skeptical Local Sheriff, how to perform and exorcism, etc.

Enjoy it and pleasant night!

Movie Time -Kung Fu Panda

What I love about the summer is all the great movies they release. I just saw The Hulk and I loved it. This is the time for Kung Fu Panda. I’ve read some very good reviews about this movie that I can’t wait to see it. I specially liked the web site (sorry, I am an internet geek, after all)

Of course, this is one to go to my personal movie collection. Wonder how it will look in my new SAMSUNG 58″ 1080p Plasma HDTV. Yes, I am bragging
