WALL•E gets two thumbs up and rave reviews! - Blu-ray Forum

tron3 · 06-22-2008, 10:56 PM

Caught it on TV just moments ago. Both reviewers giving two thumbs up on the sneak preview.

They admit the first 1/2 hour is virtually dialog free and may have the children squirming, but they gave high praise to Pixar who always do a job well done. They say ultimately both children and adults will be captivated.

Can't wait to see it, let alone own it!

Ok, so they got two eye balls up. I don't understand about the thumbs up. What happened? This better not be some more of that PC crap.

If you notice the show is owned/produced by Disney...

I don't disagree that Wall-E will be a good film, but when you hear them slag a movie and then give it a thumbs up sometimes it's Disney produced/distributed, thus take said review more on the dialog than the "thumb".

Didnt they give Meet the Spartans and 10,000 BC Two Thumbs up?

swifty7 · 06-23-2008, 02:42 AM

you got to be kidding me.....they gave those two beyond shit movies thumbs up?

GreenScar · 06-23-2008, 02:44 AM

I expect Wall-E to get great reviews all around. Pixar = quality

They didn't even review Meet the Spartans but Micheal Phillips was one of the 7% or so that liked 10,000 BC.

Bigwayne · 06-24-2008, 02:14 AM

I'll probably wait for a Blu release before seeing this movie.

Once again, I have to agree with Jason. Everything I have seen indicates that Wall-E is going to be a terrific film. Sometimes I wonder who is really the one looking foward to seeing it. Me or my son?

Banjo · 06-24-2008, 02:48 AM

I'm going to see this movie this weekend. If it's Pixar, I'm there.

Besides, I have read quite a lot of positive reviews on this movie.

SeahawxBlu · 06-26-2008, 06:43 PM

So far, Wall-E has scored a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. Leave it to one critic to pan it just cause:

That Purple Stuff · 06-26-2008, 06:45 PM

96%? Holy shit. This will be the movie of the summer mark my words. Better than overrated Dark Knight

KenThompson · 06-26-2008, 06:55 PM

Taking wife and kids to see tomorrow. See I'm stoked to see it. I love Pixar movies.

Jim L · 06-26-2008, 07:01 PM

Lately they have been pumping out some really enjoyable (for me) movies and you know that their Blu-rays are always top notch:

Chronicles: Prince Caspian
National Treasure 2
Game Plan
Enchanted
No Country for Old Men

This is a definite see for me, and a definite buy when the Blu-ray hits.

theprophecy247 · 06-26-2008, 07:02 PM

sweet dude this is def a must see, goin opening night

Blu Titan · 06-26-2008, 07:36 PM

98% on rottentomatoes.com, 40 out of 41 reviews are positive. With the kids out of school, this movie could probably get $300 million in the domestic box office. Another winner from Pixar.

Is this a joke, or are you being serious? Wassup?

tmok2000 · 06-26-2008, 08:31 PM

I wouldn't expect anything less from Pixar. They have not produced a bad movie yet. My favorite is still Cars, followed by Ratatouille, Monsters Inc., and Finding Nemo. Even their worst movie, The Incredibles, is still, well ..., incredible.
