This movie does look good, but I'm in my fifties with a grown daughter, and I tend to avoid theatres now when I think kids are going to be in the majority and driving me nuts. :P
I went to watch it because of the hype, and well it was worth it.
It reminded me of the old disney movies and cartoons of decades ago. I loved the use of old disney music. (not going to spoil anything for those who haven't seen it.)
I enjoyed the movie, but felt a little let down by the second half. The first part of the movie builds up Wall-E as this wonderfully charming character, only to have him spend the rest of the movie running from Point A to B while he drowns in all these goofy subplots. I almost wish they'd never left Earth, though I still liked the movie.
Saw this with my wife (I'm in my early thirties and she's in her late twenties) and we both loved it. Easily one of the best Disney movies I've seen in ages. Made me believe in the Disney magic again. Definite must see!

I'm willing to wait to avoid a theater full of fidgeting children.

mrselnombre — Sun, 07/20/2008 - 08:46It was quite good... kept me amused and didn't feel like i was watching a film, seemed to be over very quickly.
But it certainly pushes the stop being lazy and recycle/reuse message :?
