Outside reading for July 20, 2009

This week for my outside source I watched the movie Wall-E. It is a pixar movie. I loved it. I enjoy almost all movies that are done by Pixar. They have a record for making the best animated movies in recent years. If you dont know Wall-E is very unique it contains almost no spoken dialouge. It is almost unheard of a movie caters to a kid audience to do this. It was also done in a simliar fashion in another of my favorite movies Castaway. It helped the audience to be part of the story. This is very chalenging to do well. The key is to keep the audience engaged while weaving a good story. Wall-E does this and more. The movie is about a robot left to clean up earth from accumulated polution. This story takes place 200 years after Wall-E began the task. The story continues when Wall-E meets EVE a robot sent to retrieve evence of plant growth. This is a sign the earth is recoverying. The movie continues and gets wild and crazy from there. The visuals are out of this world spetaculiar. The dance scene between Wall-E and EVE is breathtaking. It is an example of great film making. It was easy my favorite moment in the film. The film showed a great romance between the two. The movie showed care in developing their relationship
