an other thing i noticed is that:
[spoil]When EVE blows up the shipwrecks and asks Wall-E after his directive he goes like "Tadaa!"i really loved that part, but where should he learn that word? hmm?[/spoil]
[spoil]Have to have been Hello Dolly. Quick! Someone watch it and see if that phrase is in there!
Though actually he was on earth for five years with real humans. Who knows how closely he was able to watch them.[/spoil]
Observation: I saw a Leak Less bottle in the garbage. I also thought it was odd seeing trash in the weirdest places- to name a few spots: in powerplants, in gas stations, in the middle of streets, and surrounding those service trucks on the highway.
Question: Why was Shelby Forthright still on Earth? I’m having trouble understanding why the starliners had to find plants in order to return home. Wouldn’t they just wait five years? And if they had to find vegetation, how were Shelby Forthright and the other Buy n Large executives able to stay on Earth?
They were leading the clean up. Directing robots, etc.
Not sure why they decided to create EVE units though. Perhaps a back-up plan in case the clean up failed.
[spoil]Well, maybe he found a copy of The Dark Knight in the garbage, or at least of the pencil trick scene. “Tadaaaa ! It’s… it’s gone…”[/spoil]
Skyotic- The same reasoning could be applied to some of WALL-E’s other more humanlike actions, such as the way he [spoil]whistles innocently and creeps towards EVE, and that strange little cough he does- I’ve never seen Hello, Dolly!, but I doubt that there’s a scene in there that shows a human doing something like that.[/spoil] But perhaps Archibald is right- perhaps WALL-E did manage to find other VHS tapes. That’s the only way WALL-E would ever know of these human actions.
Anyone else the least bit curious as to why the final track on the OST is named ‘Horizon 12.2’? I have no idea what significance those numbers might have, but I’m eager to find out.
After reading the ‘Intergalactic Guide’ book, I didn’t realize till now that [spoil]the reason why WALL•E put EVE on top of the truck was to get her sun so she could wake up like he can.[/spoil]
That’s why he tried to jump start her too.
I’m sure someone must’ve posted this before, but I can’t seem to find the post, so I hope I don’t sound too repetitive for mentioning this observation. Well, having Wall-e fever but not being able to watch it, had forced me into rewatching the Wall-e trailer a kazillion times, therefore I noticed that [spoil]the meeting with Wall-E and M-O in the trailer is actually different from the scene in the movie[/spoil]. I understand that there are always changes made at the last minute for movies and animation, but I’m just curious as to what was originally storyboarded and why they had changed it 
Really? I understood that straight away. It’s so cute.
I noticed this, too… Animation is usually storyboarded waaaay in advance, but so is the trailer maybe it was a last minute change after the trailer was set, but the movie wasn’t yet. I wonder how that part of the movie was originally meant to go.
[spoil]Also, in the movie, as far as I know, the Captain doesn’t actually say “Arrest that robot!” like he did in the trailer, or at least he doesn’t say it to WALL•E. And in the trailer it makes it seem as if EVE is yelling out to WALL•E when she is being put aboard the Axiom (in the beginning of the movie), when in actuality, she is in her hibernation mode (to protect the plant.)[/spoil]
There is a scene that does not make sense, maybe an in joke or maybe I just dont get it…[spoil]WALL-E repeatedly bangs his lunchbox on the ramp, which is odd because it contains his prized possesions. [/spoil] Any ideas?
I think he’s [spoil]just trying to get the dust out[/spoil]
And I didn’t realize either that [spoil]WALL-E puts EVE on top of his truck so the sun can charge her[/spoil]
And I have a small question. [spoil]M-O pronounces EVE’s name the same way WALL-E does. Is that because he hears WALL-E say her name like that (I never heard him say her name around M-O) or because he has a speech “impediment” similar to WALL-E’s?[/spoil]
I can’t really tell…I may have to watch the movie again as M-O doesn’t really get much lines so we can’t discern the extent of his vocabulary.
I didn’t really get the part where [spoil]Wall-E bashes the lunchbox against the ramp either. As far as I can remember, the box was empty when he did that, and he continued to do so frantically when he saw the storm approaching.[/spoil] Le_chocolat’s explanation seems the most plausible though.
And I also noticed the [spoil]Wall-E/M-O introduction is different from the film and trailer too. I would have liked to see the trailer’s version of it, makes me wonder who/what Wall-E’s holding off-screen in the trailer (EVE perhaps?). [/spoil]
Anyone notice that [spoil]Wall-E’s hard disk was running a BIOS system check after Eve turns back when he didn’t let go of her hand at the end? You can hear the noise faintly as he goes through his reboot, after the kiss kickstarted him, and before he is ‘resurrected.’ Thought that was a very neat aural trick there, for the computer nerds among us.[/spoil]
[spoil] In the junior novel, it says he’s cleaning it out. It took me a little while to figure it out as well. It is kinda funny to watch without knowing, though. xD “So, uhhh, WALL*E, whatcha doing there? o.o;” [/spoil]
[spoil] I always took it as he has a speech impediment like WALLE. Oddly enough, it seems WALLE actually says more English words then M-O does. [/spoil]
[spoil] I heard orginally, it was EVE who had to be saved in that scene, so I wouldn’t be surprised. There’s a lot of extra little scenes in the trailer that never actually happen. [/spoil]
I noticed that too, when I listened closely. Very clever. xP
…Aaaand my entire post is spoilers, it seems. o.o; Ahh well.
[spoil]With WALL•E banging his lunchbox, yes, it’s to get the dust out. The reason he looks up and sees the dust storm approaching, but still does it is because he has had a solid routine everyday for 500 years (or since whenever he started to develop a personality) and he had a certain order to do those things, and he wanted to get the dust out quickly so he could shut his container house and get onto the next part of his routine. I loved that part.[/spoil]
That scene in the trailer is actually [spoil]a deleted scene that will appear on the DVD/Blu-Ray, or so I have read. WALL-E was originally going to be the one rescuing a broken EVE. I really like how they chose to do it, because it really shows how EVE has developed. At the beginning of the film it’s WALL-E being there for EVE, and at the end it’s the other way around. It also just keeps things flowing nicely, because it wouldn’t make sense for AUTO to zap EVE (I guess that’s how it would have to have been?) And then WALL-E fixes EVE and then WALL-E is getting crushed by the holo-detector on the Lido Deck.[/spoil]
And rachelcakes1985, I love that part too. [spoil]I think they really wanted to emphasize WALL-E’s initial devotion to his direction and how that all changes after EVE arrives in his life.[/spoil]
I saw that [spoil]when the Captain is supposed to press the green button he presses the blue one…[/spoil]
…Wait a minute.
A need to follow a set routine every day.
A huge focus on specific things/topics in his life.
A fascination with little random things others would find odd.
A bit of trouble getting the meaning behind what people say by reading facial expressions [spoil](as seen during the escape pod bit)[/spoil]
…Oh my gosh WALL-E has robo-aspergers syndrome! 
Awesome!
