I just got back from seeing Wall-E. Wow... surprisingly good movie. Amazing art direction and sound design and even a little bit moving. Lots of very cool post apocalyptic type imagery in the beginning with what I'm convinced is a direct influence from the Fallout games (old jazz songs used in a similar context). The sound design (a great deal of the movie is non-speaking) is by Ben Burtt, the guy who did all the sounds in the Star Wars movies... the guy who designed the light saber sound. For that reason the sound effect seem both original and different, and yet comfortingly familiar.

This was one of the few movies I've seen lately that felt worth watching on the big screen. Shrek it out!
