Dave never said "WHY" he was at Pixar.

Maybe he was arranging a Guerilla Drive-In preivew of WALL•E for the Wrap Party in Atlanta!

Maybe he was lining up WALL•E to give the awards presentations at the Championship?

I loved the commercial. Everytime I see him with the bug I think of a hexbug!

i saw the teaser for WALL.E before national treasure 2. i thought the robot was absolutely adorable, especially when that huge ship thing landed on him.

It looks to be awesome. The super bowl commercial was somewhat good, not as big great as the one posted above.

Ahhh... it IS a chick-flick afterall! WALL-E gets a girlfiend!

Finally a trailer that describes a little bit of the storyline woo. Looks like a decent movie.

Rats. Another one for the MPAA. Why does everything have to be so political?

MORT plans on taking a few of the robots to the premiere of WALL-E. We've done this for other movies but sadly missed out on Iron Man and Transformers.

Hope to get lots of young kids there to see the robots.

I saw the pre-release screening of WALL•E last night, and it turned out to be just as much fun as I suspected it would. First off, it is a good story, without being sickeningly sweet. The story is engrossing enough that you are completely pulled into it. You are twenty minutes into the film before you realize that there has not been a single line of dialog - and yet the story and cinematography are good enough to carry that off without a problem.. And WALL•E is terminally cute (yes, I am already trying to figure out how to make one out of VEX parts...). As expected, the quality of the animation is stunning, although I will admit to being much more impressed by the scenes on Earth than on the spacecraft. The animators in the audience are going to just love it. Without giving away any of the story line, there are some fun things to look out for. You will catch a few subtle reminders that Pixar is still partially owned by Steve Jobs (just listen to WALL•E's reboot sound, etc.). I am still looking for the "Binford" tag that is hidden in there somewhere.

The special short up front, "Presto" by Doug Sweetland, is as good as we have come to expect from Pixar (probably my favorite since "For The Birds" led off "Monsters Inc.").

There is also a nice connection between this film and the FIRST community. Those of us that have been around long enough may remember Laura London (first at Autodesk, and later with FIRST). Her nephew, Brian London, is an assistant art director on the film.
