The Wall-E 500 (the ultimate challenge)

You are about 25% done EVEisAwesome. Keep it up.

I bet everytime you watch the movie, you see and notice something new right?

Which is probably a good thing… :stuck_out_tongue:

Hey guys. I got some good news, and some bad news. The bad news first…

Well, I’m 9 views behind, which is decent for being the 193rd day. I must admit, truly, that on most occasions these days, I will watch WALL-E while surfing the web. I perch my iPod right next to my computer and listen to it. I make sure the music is loud enough, so I don’t forget about it. I had to admit this, though. I feel pretty bad. So that is my confession.

The good news now. Despite that being said, I still do focus on several parts even when I’m typing documents while watching it. I just love the soundtrack. Also, I do plan on on getting back to focusing solely on just the movie regularly. I wanna have just about every detail memorized. Also, I still love the movie deeply. I watched it on my 52" screen last Sunday and I still got emotional on the sadder parts, and laughed at the funny parts. I have no plans on quitting.

So, that’s it. Thanks for helping me out. BTW- Can someone ask me a question on the movie? Maybe someone could gather a list of questions, and ask me on AIM live so they would know I wouldn’t be cheating? I don’t feel like I know every detail. And my ipod screen does limit some things, so I wouldn’t know super insane background details like you think I would.

Dude, your crazy! I’ve watched it 17 times simply because I’m sick of it. I don’t laugh, cry, or anything anymore. I can’t believe your not sick of it yet. Again I say “Good Luck” :wink:

Thank you. I believe I never get sick of WALL-E because he reminds me of myself. The movie is well layed out (except the repetitive part towards the end.) I guess none of the characters are annoying, and limited words makes it easy to like.

I’d say up until it gets to the Axiom the movie always impresses me. Once WALL-E gets to the Axiom I pretty much just wait for the movie to end. The Axiom part is okay, but not near as good as the beginning. The captain is kinda annoying to me.

I thought you were going to “WATCH” it, not listen to it?

I could NEVER EVER watch amovie that many times in a row! :open_mouth:

He reminds me of myself too, one of the things that made me love the movie so much.

Seriously though, 9 views behind is nothing to be worried about. I think it’s more worrying that you’re 187 views ahead. :laughing:

Isn’t it interesting that we haven’t heard from him for like, 6 months? Did he actually think he could pull this off without melting his brain from watching the movie so many times in a row? :laughing:

I mean, as consumed with this movie as I am, and as consumed as anyone else may be with it, this kind of goal is just unattainable. sadly shakes head

little chef

Haha, yeah, I’d forgotten all about this! Well, I have to say, he got further than I ever would have. :laughing:

Once you watch a movie enough times, you can listen and see all the images in your head. xD

Goodness! :open_mouth: 500 times??! Seriously? (As in shockingly). Wow, you have guts. I’ve lost count on how many times I’ve seen Wall-E, but it’s certainly not been 188 times! :laughing:

Well, good luck on this! :wink:

Ha wow, and my friends say I watch WALL-E too much! I wish you the best of luck, and godspeed!

I haven’t noticed this thread before, but good luck on your amazing journey. Since we haven’t heard from you in so long I hope that means you are up to work, but don’t ascend into madness. Just remember why you started this feat in the first place, because Wall-E was so great that you felt you owed something to it and to yourself (or so I’m guessing). It might be near a year before you respond to this thread, but I again wish you fantastic luck in hopes of your completion. If only Pixar knew…

Well, it’s been over 20 months since he/she last posted on this thread (June 2, 2009) and all we know is he saw it at least 188 times in less than 7 months. In fact, that day was the last activity on the entire website for EveIsAwesome. If I had to see Wall-E that many times in a year and a half, it would nearly ruin the movie for me, and it would leave such a bad taste in my mouth for things Wall-E, and maybe I would even have to be committed. Most people who posted here were encouraging, but perhaps some outright discouragement was in order? If you had a friend with 810 spare hours to blow, would you really recommend them doing that sort of thing? Maybe that’s why this person isn’t here anymore… just like people you meet online in computer games and they go way way overboard and sacrifice their jobs, studies, marriage or personal relationships and the game becomes not only the center of their lives, but everything else becomes an irritating distraction and they soon end up imploding: deleting the game from their computer, selling off their hard-earned accounts and completely forsaking all things associated with that unfortunate episode in their lives, and that includes even you.

Why do people admire others who are doing something relatively useless, versus something constructive (or deconstructive, lol) and perhaps even productive, like coming up with fanfic or pixar pics. They are a bright, shining light streaking across the heavens, but are really going down in flames…

Well, if i get the DVD, maybe i could do the Wall-E 500!

When i got a good glimpse of it at first hand, i watched it at a total, 17 times for the past 2 weeks. So, 2 years? 730 days? 104 Weeks? If i continue to watch it 17 times every 2 weeks, 17X52 would equal a total of 864 times, about almost 175% more than what would be required to finish the challenge.

Your math is off.
Since you watch 17 times every 2 weeks, you have to multiply 17/2 times 52 or 17 times 26. Because you watch it 17 times every 2 weeks and there are 52 weeks in a year, so actually, you would only watch it 442 times.

umm, PPT, the wall-e 500 challenge gives us 2 years to complete the challenge. So, it would be 17 times 52.

Ahh. Then you are correct. :smiley:

Did the original poster ever finish their challenge?
