With luminous puppy dog electro-orbs, the rusted robot brings to mind Charlie Chapin’s Little Tramp.

One day Wall–E discovers Eve, the droid of his dreams, and due to an innocent gift from her rusty paramour, Eve’s mission is compromised and she must leave.

Wall-E, follows Eve to the ends of the earth and beyond in his love for her. Compound this with oodles of fast paced comedic escapades, and very little dialogue including Wall-E’s heartfelt finale, and at times, Wall-E is like a splendid sci fi treatment of Chaplin silent movie classic City Lights.

Eve’s home, the Axiom is a spaceship housing bloated, lazy consumer driven, cyber medicated Earthlings.

Humans these days are always sitting in front of screens - televisions, computers, DVD’s, Blue Ray Players, PlayStations, and as world technology goes into overdrive, these screens grow ever smaller – Ipods, cell phones, Blackberries… Why shouldn’t screens invade our personal space following us around wherever we go?

It’s the next logical step.

In this Consumer Overload Big Box World will we become the Wired Whales depicted in Wall-E constantly clicking for the Next Big Box Thing?

Wall-E’s tricket laden abode delivered another warning – the manual egg beater, bubble wrap, eight track tape, cassette player and the VCR repeatedly cranking Hello Dolly’s Put On Your Sunday Clothes. Wall-E found valid use for these discarded items in conjunction with his Ipod because in today’s disposable world, Wall-E’s wise enough to know that “everything old is new again”

So I'm putting on my Sunday clothes, finding my sweetie and leaving this screen. Like the song says …. “There's lots of world out there, put on your silk cravat and patent shoes, we're gonna find adventure in the evening air.”
