Well Wall-E (and anyone who’s interested), I recommend you watch it in Digital 3-D. It’s a neat preview of how Up would look like when it comes out next summer.
Even if you don’t get the chance, at least see it in on a matinee or on Cheap Tuesdays (if you have those over there). Personally, I think it’s worth a theatre trip, not opening weekend material, but after the prices dropped a little, it’s worth a look.
Don’t know how much of a “dog, cat or hamster-person” you are, but even if you aren’t, it’s nice to witness Disney’s return to form after the mediocre Chicken Little and direct to DVD spin-offs.
If you can’t catch it in cinemas, see it anyway you can (well, at least legally, anyway )!
I saw Bolt a second time, and I enjoyed it alot better than the first. I still don’t like it as much as WALL-E, but from a scale from one to ten i’d give it a nine.
This is a toughy. If i had to watch a movie once, id say Wall-E. But if i had to watch the movie repeatedly, i would probably choose bolt, for dialogue purposes.
CMB took the words out of my mouth! Or rather, out of my fingers, since I’m typing here.
Wall-E is like an exquisite rare treat, like a Miyazaki or Peter Jackson epic, one that you would only take out and see it again once in a blue moon, because it’s so grand and magnificent that you couldn’t bear to watch it too many times for fear of ‘tainting’ your wonderful thoughts of it by too many repeated viewings. (Am I making any sense here? Laugh out loud) It’s like a one of a kind work of art, where you have fond memories of the first time you witnessed it in theatres with friends, and where you’d always remember it as a monumental animation classic to show your eventual kids and grandkids. (Waxing poetic here, sorry)
Whereas Bolt is like a Bay or Bruckheimer blockbuster movie, full of incredible action setpieces, memorable characters, and witty dialogue. But amidst all the random acts of hilarity and carnage, there are tender and beautiful moments where the characters talk about their experiences, their “world-view”, and life in general. It’s the kind of movie you wouldn’t mind breaking out to watch over and over again, cos’ you know that even if you’ve seen it a billion times, you’d still get floored by the amazing visuals and incredible characterisation.
I would actually choose Bolt. I just preferred the way it was with the comedy in where as Wall.E didn’t really have that I thought.
I just preferred the storyline for Bolt and the whole film itself.
Sorry for those who liked bolt but I thought Wall-E was amazing. Not because t didn’t have too much dialogue but because it was a well told original story, with lovely characters and well made from a technical point of view. They made it look like a live action movie with the zoom and lightining. And it mess up with world contamination and humanity future.
Bolt, on the other hand, was a very good movie but not excellent like Wall-E
I was funny but not very original… I’m sorry but that kind of growing up and learning that Bolt goes trough it’s similar to Buzz Lightyear’s and McQueen’s
I’m going to have to say Wall•e here. Talking animals just don’t do it for me I’m afraid. Given the choice I’d much rather watch a film with robots than a film with animals, especially a film as beautifully done as Wall•e. To be honest the lack of dialog actually cinches it for me; the fact that such emotion can be portrayed without the the spoken word is one of the films greatest triumphs.
I adored both of them. I knew WALL-E would be a success (I never doubt Pixar anymore), but I wasn’t sure about Bolt. When I did see it in theaters, I was completely surprised, but in a good way. I laughed so hard I cried, and then cried at all of the heartbreakingly sad parts. The only time I teared up in WALL-E was when EVE almost lost him in the end, and even then I just got a teensy bit misty-eyed.
I suppose Bolt made me more emotional was because of a personal experience with an animal I had, and as a result that movie really touched my heart in a way that an animated movie hasn’t since…well, since I saw Monsters, Inc. I’ve never been in love and am not currently interested in relationships, so I guess that’s why I was less affected by WALL-E, even though I thought it was another fantastic gift from Pixar.
So in this poll I voted for Bolt. It was a pleasant surprise from the Disney people, and a reassured me that the studio is bringing back the magic they once had.
Of course, it can’t be a coincidence that Mr. Lasseter’s the one in charge now…
I love both of these movies very much. Wall-e blew me away visually, and the little use of dialogue did not bother me because the overall message was so powerful. The whole concept of human contact, of holding hands, it touched my heart, it is a much more powerful movie than Bolt. However, I was truly surprised by how good Bolt was. I had to ignore Miley Cyrus’s voice, but after that I was very entertained. Yes, it was an action packed and not as artistically driven, but it also had a very profound point to make. How cute is Bolt’s first experience sticking his head out the window for the first time and enjoying a car ride? It was an adorable and entertaining movie that I would watch over and over, which is why I voted for Bolt.
Both of these films are in my top 3 list (of all time), so it’s a pretty close call. Wall-E is a beautiful film with a powerful message, and while I know that this has been said dozens of times already, the fact that both Wall-E and Eve are so engaging and emotionally investable without hardly ever saying a word is nothing short of amazing.
Bolt, on the other hand, is not exactly the most original film, as it seems like a mixture of Homeward Bound, Toy Story, and The Truman Show. That said, however, Bolt touched my heart in a way that no other film (animated or otherwise) has. This is largely due to the incredibly endearing characters, with Mittens, specifically, being my personal favorite character in the history of film. There are several scenes in this film that bring me to tears every single time that I watch 'em, and as much as I love Wall-E, I’ll admit that the only scene that causes me to tear up is the ending (which is still saying a ton, considering that films rarely manage to get that kind of response out of me).
WALL-E of course. Because I just loved it and it was really cute and amusing at the same time. Also I never saw Bolt and have no plans to ever see Bolt because it just doesnt grab my interest.
Give Bolt a chance. I know it doesn’t look like a decent movie, but my my, did I enjoy it myself, too, after I watched it, despite not being a dog-owner… or owner of any pets (except fish, but those belong to my dad…) for that matter.
It’s definitely not comparable to WALL-e in terms of its plot, cinematography, characterization… pretty much everything else, but its music was sure brilliant, and I too shed a tear during the movie’s screening.
Can I tell you guys a secret?..
(looks down in shame)
I’ve never seen Bolt!
But I think I’ll still like WALL-E better. Not to say that Bolt isn’t a good movie, but… Well, I guess I’ll have to get it from the library one of these days.
Maybe that is a little harsh sounding. But that’s how I feel. I just dont have an interest in seeing it. I’m not saying it looks stupid or bad or anything. Just not my cup of tea. Or coffee…
I dont really like bolt but without saying anymore here is a list of where i will put everything:
1 Pixar movies 2 WALL-E
3 More pixar movies
4 Meet the Robinsons
5 The lion king
6 disney movies
7 blue sky movies 8 BOLT
9 Dreamworks movies
10 Sony animation movies
11 Other animation movies
so you see i love WALL-E and i hate bolt {well kinda but you get my point}
)!
