Wall-E Wins Best Animated Film at 2008 Oscars

Nix February 23, 2009

Unless you were too busy daydreaming about football this Sunday, you were probably sitting at home (or you might have heard about it on the news) watching the 2008 Oscars telecast and watching Pixar’s latest, the sci-fi-themed “Wall-E” take the Oscar home in the Best Animated Feature Film category. The category was pretty slim pickings this year, with “Wall-E” up against “Bolt” and “Kung Fu Panda”. The Oscars website has the acceptance speech by “Wall-E” director Andrew Stanton. It’s below. My producers Jim Morris and Lindsey Collins should really be up here to accept this with me. It’s been such an inspiration to spend time with a character who so tenaciously struggles to find the beauty in everything that he sees. It’s a noble aspiration to have at times like these. I dearly want to thank everyone that’s been on this film: the cast, the crew, everybody at Disney and Pixar Studios. I have to single out Ed Catmull, John… Continue Reading »

Brand New Wall-E Trailer

Nix February 8, 2008

A second trailer for Pixar’s animated “Wall-E” has arrived online, and it fleshes out (no pun intended) the storyline some more. We learn that Wall-E is a robot sent to Earth to clean up the mess humans left behind after we have abandoned the planet entirely; but something happens and Wall-E develops a “personality”, turns out to be very curious. Later, a second robot, Eve, shows up, and Wall-E falls in love. He ends up hitchhiking on her ship as she rockets off Earth and, presumably, that’s where the story continues in the movie. The year is 2700. WALL*E, a robot, spends every day doing what he was made for. But soon, he will discover what he was meant for. Some stills from the trailer:
