Trailer For Pixar's Wall-E!

Trailer For Pixar's Wall-E! Pixar’s new movie Ratatouille comes out in a few weeks, but their next project has been stirring up rumors on the net for at least a year now. It’s called Wall-E, and it’s been mostly shrouded in complete secrecy, until now.

Today, before my press screening of Ratatouille, Pixar unveiled their first Wall-E teaser trailer. It begins with an introduction by Andrew Stanton, in which he talks about the early days of Pixar following the success of Toy Story. Stanton tells the story of how he, and three others of the company’s founding creative fathers (including tragically deceased Joe Ranft) met to discuss what they’d do after Pixar. They came up with four ideas, three of which eventually became the now classic films A Bug’s Life, Monsters, Inc., and Finding Nemo. The fourth was a favorite of Ranft’s, and that’s Wall-E.

The teaser then shows a brief snippet of footage from the film, with a narrated explanation. The camera pans to show the saddest, tiny robot you’ve ever seen collecting garbage on a flat, empty planet underneath a huge, starry sky. The cute little robot picks up garbage, compresses it, and deposits it in cubes as a narrator talks about how he’s faithfully done his job for 700 years, but never found his true purpose… until now. The robot looks up at the stars, and the title “Wall-E” flashes across the screen, and is then said by a heavily synthesized, sort of squeaky robotic voice which sounds like it’s not used to speaking. This is probably the little robot Wall-E.

The teaser trailer seems to confirm just about all of the rumors we’ve heard about the movie. The animation has a sad and wistful quality to it, but is hard to judge since they only show such a small piece of it. Since I saw it before my screening of Ratatouille, don’t be surprised if this same teaser is attached to the film when it arrives in theaters on June 29th. Like anything Pixar does, I can’t wait to see more of what they’re up to with Wall-E. This was just an appetite wetter.

  • I Love This Little Guy, The Trailers Are Sweet. Hopes Its A Sweet Movie :D
  • In my line of work (marketing), I was fortunate to see a preview of Wall•E about two months ago. The movie is very unconventional with no actual "voice talent."

    The story is basically a love story of sorts about Wall•E (Waste Allocation L.L. [something-something, I don't remember] • Earth Class) a robot whose mission it is to clean up Earth some 700 years into the future because life as we know it doesn't exist there anymore. While there he (sorta) falls in love with another robot named "eve".

    The funniest, most amazing part of the movie is the portrayal of humans who, because they've had to live in space due to the way they've treated the planet, have adapted to living in zero gravity and become "gelatinous blobs"

    As with all things Pixar, this movie looks wierd at first (think the child-like quality of Cars) but I'm sure is destined to be another classic!
  • Read and you'll find the answer to that question.
  • so can we watch it or what?
