1. Lack of Dialogue<\/h2>\n

One of the most iconic aspects about WALL\u00b7E<\/em> is the fact that more than half of the film is done without<\/strong> dialogue. The film just wouldn\u2019t be the same if the loveable robot could speak or if WALL\u00b7E and EVE had a romantic conversation as they watched the sun set. Animation means so much to me because there are literally no rules as to how someone could tell a story \u2013 you can have toys coming to life, bugs rebelling against grasshoppers, etc., but each of those unique stories could be told in so many different ways. In WALL\u00b7E<\/em> \u00a0we follow a robot on this massive adventure as he leaves the \u00a0garbage-ridden planet he calls home, flies through space and eventually makes it on-board a fancy spaceship, but we see it all without dialogue and we barely even notice. There is so much that can be said with a simple glance, a gesture, or even a brief cut that 12 pages of dialogue can never achieve. WALL\u00b7E<\/em> is a testament to that \u2013\u00a0even though the film is now ten years old, it\u2019s still ambitious and there hasn\u2019t been a film yet to challenge its lack of dialogue.<\/p>\n

2. The Love Story<\/h2>\n

Stand aside, Rapunzel and Finn, you too Cinderella and Prince Charming, because WALL\u00b7E and EVE might be the most iconic couple in animation history. There\u2019s nothing better than an unconventional love story, especially one that doesn\u2019t even revolve around humans. When I first went into the cinema to watch WALL\u00b7E<\/em>, I had no idea that the core of the film would revolve around WALL\u00b7E and his heart of gold as he tries to win the affections of EVE. Not only does he share all the things he loves with EVE when she visits earth, but he follows her all over space, and even risks his life to save her at the end. WALL\u00b7E, a true gentleman robot, even protects EVE and watches after her once she shuts down while on earth. Opposites attract in the most beautiful ways with their relationship. Hey, I know it\u2019s been 10 years but\u00a0I\u2019m still waiting for a scene of them flying off into the sunset holding hands and singing along to Hello, Dolly<\/em>!

3. Classic Film References<\/h2>\n

Speaking of Hello, Dolly!<\/em> One of the reasons this film is so special is because of all the beautiful references to this iconic musical. Lets talk about that opening sequence and the use of Put on Your Sunday Clothes<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u201cOut there<\/em>
\nThere’s a world outside of Yonkers
\nWay out there beyond this hick town, Barnaby
\nThere’s a slick town, Barnaby
\nOut there
\nFull of shine and full of sparkle
\nClose your eyes and see it glisten, Barnaby
\nListen, Barnaby\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The lyrics are dripping with nostalgia and fit WALL\u00b7E\u2019s story almost perfectly \u2013 the urge to make earth the way it once was, before it was overflowing with garbage and waste, and to set off into space, exploring the world outside of the planet. Those lyrics also capture the whimsically and childlike wonder of WALL\u00b7E. It might seem odd there\u2019s such a random focus on Hello, Dolly! <\/em>But it makes sense in relation to the story. WALL\u00b7E only has the VHS copy of the musical to keep him company on earth. Just like his cockroach friend, Hello, Dolly<\/em>! Is one of his companions and part of him; it\u2019s what keeps him going and motivated throughout the film.
\nAnother great reference to classic film is of course, the evil robot AUTO on the human\u2019s spaceship. The chilling personality of the robot resembles the infamous HAL: 9000 from 2001: A Space Oddity<\/em>; from the deadpan voice to the robot\u2019s design, it\u2019s hard to ignore that the film directly influenced the character.<\/p>\n

4. Character Designs<\/h2>\n

One of the most charming elements about WALL\u00b7E is all the character designs \u2013 they\u2019re simple and efficient, we don\u2019t need to have all the detail in the world thrown into WALL\u00b7E, EVE, or even the humans to care for them, to root for them. There\u2019s just enough detail as to not distract us from the heart of the story. The design of AUTO is also simplistic, he looks like a steering wheel for Pete’s sake, and yet we\u2019re terrified of him and want him to be shut down completely for the sake of team WALL\u00b7E. From the dirty, clunky box shapes of WALL\u00b7E, and the sleek and oval designs of Eve, to even the round and disproportioned humans; the way each character was crafted tells us perfectly about who they are and how they interact with others in the world around them. At first all of the different character shapes look like a game of Tetris; you don\u2019t think they\u2019re going to be a match but then you realize how they move and flow and work together to save the day and they all fit perfectly into place, as if they were always meant to be together.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

5. Director Andrew Stanton<\/h2>\n

I don\u2019t know about you, but sometimes I like to think about how another director at Pixar would\u2019ve handled WALL\u00b7E<\/em>. If Brad Bird or Pete Docter directed the film, it just wouldn\u2019t have been the same. Granted, it would\u2019ve been a brilliant film but it would\u2019ve been different. WALL\u00b7E would\u2019ve been there, maybe the same story would\u2019ve remained intact, but the vision would\u2019ve been something else entirely. Each director brings a part of themselves on to their projects \u2013 if you gave me and a few other storytellers the same prompt and told us to write a 90-page screenplay, each one would be dissimilar. WALL\u00b7E<\/em> works so well because it\u2019s Andrew Stanton\u2019s vision<\/strong>. You look at this film and it fits so well with the other stories on his fantastic repertoire \u2013\u00a0A Bug\u2019s Life, Finding Nemo,<\/em> and even Finding Dory<\/em>; Stanton\u2019s films are always so simplistic, ambitious, and character driven. He pushes his characters out of their comfort zones, putting them into these massive environments and seeing how they\u2019re going to react: Flick leaving the comforts of the colony in A Bug\u2019s Life<\/em>, Marlin facing his fears and literally swimming out into the deep blue sea in Finding Nemo,<\/em> and even WALL\u00b7E flying into space to follow the love of his life; there\u2019s a common theme of exploration, both internally and externally, with Stanton\u2019s films.

6. Its Strong Environmental Message<\/h2>\n

One of the reasons I adore Pixar movies is because of the striking messages that are always so perfectly communicated within them. WALL\u00b7E<\/em> is a perfect example of this \u2013 WALL\u00b7E himself teaches us to be kind and loyal, and the film\u2019s overarching environmental and commercial themes make it forever, and increasingly, relevant. Some found the environmental message to be too obvious or too \u2018in your face\u2019, but I think it was a brave move on Pixar\u2019s part. We\u2019re in a strange situation at the moment \u2013 species are edging towards extinction wherever you look, but for the most part the world is almost choosing to look in the other direction. I love that WALL\u00b7E<\/em> wasn\u2019t afraid to put its environmental message right at its core. Pixar wasn\u2019t lecturing us \u2013 the lesson was interwoven into a unique, universal love story. The moment I first saw WALL\u00b7E gaze at that single green, thriving sapling with pure wonder, I knew I was watching something special.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

7. The Size and Setting<\/h2>\n

Not many Pixar movies can claim that they took their audiences across the galaxy. World-building is a tricky thing \u2013 I feel like it must be even more difficult when creating an animated movie. You\u2019re transporting people to fantastical worlds that need to feel real and believable, but not so real and believable that the magic is lost. The fact that WALL\u00b7E <\/em>takes place in several incredibly distinct settings, spanning across an entire universe, while still managing to focus on its characters and its story is amazing to me. WALL\u00b7E <\/em>is ambitious. <\/em><\/strong>The movie\u2019s opening quite literally sets the scene by showing stunning shots in outer space – it starts off big, immediately scales down to WALL\u00b7E\u2019s own little world, and then blasts us back off into the stars again.<\/p>\n

8. The Music<\/h2>\n

Thomas Newman, the composer for Finding Nemo<\/em>, Finding Dory<\/em>, and of course WALL\u00b7E<\/em>, does an astounding job at filling huge, open worlds with wonder and beauty. In a movie with very little dialogue, especially between the two main protagonists, the music needs to be expressive and descriptive \u2013 it needs to envelope the viewer in the story and help them connect and empathise with the characters. Newman\u2019s score does exactly this. And on top of all that, how does the soundtrack somehow mingle seamlessly with 60’s Broadway music, Louis Armstrong’s cover of\u00a0La Vie En Rose\u00a0<\/em>(1950), and catchy\u00a0BnL\u00a0<\/em>jingles? It’s kind of genius.<\/p>\n

9. The Sound Effects<\/h2>\n

WALL\u00b7E and EVE can\u2019t exactly speak, so why is it so easy to understand what they\u2019re communicating? A big part of this is the clever animation of gestures, but also the creation of futuristic yet familiar sound effects. Ben Burtt, who is famously known for creating the \u2018voice\u2019 of R2-D2 in Star Wars (along with many other iconic Star Wars sound effects), was the sound designer for WALL\u00b7E<\/em> and could even be credited as the \u2018voice\u2019 of WALL\u00b7E himself. I love the sound effects in WALL\u00b7E. <\/em>I love how they flesh out the oddly beautiful post-apocalyptic world that we\u2019re introduced to. I love how they don\u2019t exactly give the robots \u2018voices\u2019 or a language, but the whistles, tones, and clicks are more than enough to give them character and emotions. It\u2019s so clever, and again, so ambitious.<\/p>\n

10. Define Dancing<\/h2>\n

Yes, I\u00a0am\u00a0<\/em>going to argue that this single scene is a reason why WALL\u00b7E<\/em> is up there with the Pixar greats.
\n\"\"
\nIf\u00a0someone were to ask me to pick a favourite Pixar scene, after much<\/strong> inner turmoil, I would probably say Define Dancing. The scene where WALL\u00b7E and EVE dance in space. It sounds simple and uneventful (and maybe that\u2019s partly why I\u2019m so in love with it), but it\u2019s also the epitome of everything that I admire about the movie. Dialogue takes a back seat and gives way to storytelling through sensitive animation and moving, swelling music. It’s the high point of the beautifully unconventional love story. We thought this iconic scene was such a perfect example of everything that WALL\u00b7E<\/em> did right that it perfectly exemplifies why it’s one of the best Pixar movies, all on its own.
