Fun fact: my parents believed walle to be completely silent so when they bought the film they bought it in Spanish from a guy selling DVDs on a beach while we were on holiday. This meant that the first ever time i watched walle it was completely in Spanish but it didnt matter because the film still make sense to a 9 year old because of the robots. Shows that the complete lack of speach was still able to tell an amazing story, and i think thats pretty neat
the ability for this film to be understood by everyone regardless of what language its in is one of the reasons its my favorite. my parents didnt undertstand English, only spanihg, and yet completely understood what was happening when they first watched it.
I wouldn’t say that this ^ is a “fun fact “ but I did laugh.
why…. did your parents think that
@@tonoornottono there are some parents out there who can't distinguish between pixar knock-offs and original films
but the non-dialogue thing makes sense if they didnt watch the full movie
@@tonoornottono Idk for the longest time I thought WALL·E was just a really short short about two robots falling in love in a dystopian world and also had no language audio
Watching the full scene of "Put Your Sunday Clothes" from _Hello Dolly_ after years of seeing the TV clip that Wall-E watched feels like my childhood is finally completed in peace. Pixar surely does have a good taste of musicals.
It's like finding lost media, except it's always been... *out there...*
@@DaRealBruner There's a world outside of Yonkers. Way out there beyond this hick town Barnaby. There's a slick town Barnaby.
Really now?
I loved the first part of WALL-E where there is almost no dialogue. It's a nice throwback to silent films and shows a story can still be told without words coming at you at a hundred miles an hour.
WALL-E fun fact: Stanton got the inspiration for WALL·E’s design when someone handed him a pair of binoculars at a baseball game. “I missed the entire inning,” he recalled. “I just turned the thing around and I started staring at it and I started making it go sad and then happy and then mad and then sad and I remembered doing that as a kid with my dad’s binoculars and I said, ‘It’s all there.’”
One thing that I'll always feel is kind of disturbing about this movie is that _the Axiom wasn't the only ship, but it is the only one that is ever seen to return to Earth._ In the hologram commercial at the beginning of the movie, we see an entire fleet take off at once. Just like Wall-E is the only Wall-E of many to survive and gain humanity, only one ship's worth of humans ever regain their humanity, and the rest presumably rot in space forevermore, unknowingly living in a _Black Mirror_ hell, forever growing dumber, fatter, and more atrophied, never even knowing there's anything more to life. Not only that, but since it can be assumed that every ship had an AUTO, it's likely that it was the same AI copy-pasted by BnL into every ship, and as a result, without an external force showing up to challenge it, it would most certainly succeed in it's goal of keeping the humans that way forever, all for their indefinite "survival."
Humanity will survive forever, but most of it will never live.
TBH, I'd rather imagine that the next generations of humans on earth would discover the AUTO program and launch search ships in order to search for the remaining humans left there and be horrified by the discovery of the atrophied meat sack of humanity reamining there
There is a theory that one of the other Axiom’s crashed on another planet and over time was taken over by the elements and became Ravens Point mountain in Onward. The theory goes this is also the reason technology advanced so suddenly and quickly too due to the supercomputer onboard with all the info on earth.
Theres also the possibility that the axiom we see in the movie is the only one that ever survived. It could be possibly that every other axiom at some point failed, since bnl makes shit robots most of the time, meaning the movie one is the last one left. It would explain the lack of any other eve robots
We actually *do* see the other axiom ships during the end credits though
@@laggianput i _think_ they did show other EVEs when 'our' EVE returned to the axiom - i haven't seen the movie in quite a long time, but i think they showed a fair amount of them in the same inactive state that eva goes into after she absorbed the plant
When I was a kid the live action in the movie weirded me out in a way I couldn’t describe at the time, but with time I did learn that the feeling was what made the movie WORK for me. Not only does it do the “wow look how different the humans got so far away from their origins” but it also leans into the uncanny valley vibe to boost the isolation and dystopia of the story. Pixar does a great job of using style to keep us from falling into the valley in all of their movies, but seeing live action humans morph into Pixar humans through those pictures of the captains haunted me as a kid. Similarly, watching Pixar characters watch Hello Dolly on decaying, Jerry rigged technology provided a deep sense of loneliness that I hadn’t felt at that young age until then. It all felt… wrong, in a way that made the movie make an impact.
And of course, Fred Willard did a great job in his role and is a very memorable character.
nope walle was one of my first movies and I never had uncanny valley vibes. It always worked.
yes!! i don't get the uncanny valley feeling but i can see where you're coming from.
imagine how different the movie would feel if they had just animated everything. it'd make it a lot easier to stay detached from the idea that this is our future if we don't stop it
“Nobody wants Happy Feet Humans.”
Actually, maybe I’m the outlier, but the humans from Happy Feet were my favorite part of the whole film. ESPECIALLY the part where the Antarctic team starts dancing with him, and one slips and falls. I almost cried!
Also, the little girl tapping on the tank reminded me of myself at that age, and how often we went to the zoo. I haven’t seen the movie in a while granted, but I remember really enjoying the way they incorporated that.
yeah I loved those Antarctica guys
The live-action parts of Happy Feet is incredible.
Fun fact: originally the film was suppose to have actual real outer space aliens in early production and of the movie.
@@brandonlyon730 Happy Feet or Wall-E?
@@garymitchell3202 Happy Feet
not gonna lie: The portions and songs shown in this movie really did make me want to check out this movie when this movie came out and, one fine day when i went to my grandparents house: they had a copy on VHS in a bundle they were giving to us. I can't recall everything that happened in the movie but the songs and characters are just delightful.
Wall-E on VHS?
@@michael1234252 Yes in deed (----:
@@nathansmith8883 I thought by the time Wall-E came out the VHS format was dead and the movie industries have moved on to DVD and Blu-Ray.
@@michael1234252 Just because the industries didn't make vhs versions did not mean that people couldn't record it. Of course it wouldn't look right but new dvds can be pricey.
@@nathansmith8883 true
Exactly, the point of using live-action instead of just animating is to make us see ourselves. To show that this is our planet, and if we don't do a better job protecting it, it will become this way IRL. Dietrich Bonhoeffer said it best, "The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world it leaves its children", while Lady Bird Johnson said "The environment, after all, is where we all meet, where we all have a mutual interest. It is one thing that all of us share.”
Wall-E is literally my favorite movie of all time. I loved the universe as a kid. I loved the love story as a teen. I loved the subtle themes and (maybe unintentional) deep events that happen all the time in the film.
One of my favorites I noticed, is how the hover chairs were first shown as advanced wheelchairs for the disabled... Only for all humans to rely on them to get around. Perhaps this originally was because of the atrophy that the extended time in space caused, eventually humans only ever knew the hover chairs, despite their muscled getting used to the gravity and allowing them to walk again over the years.
When John falls out of his chair, suddenly he realizes how artificial everything is. No one offering to help him up, the robots just redirecting traffic and telling him help will come *eventually.*
This may be because originally they were programmed to go through every active chair to find where the fallen person was, but due to the sheer amount of active chairs, the process takes an absurdly long time.
Wall-E instantly reaches out to help, pushing John back into his chair, changing his viewpoint forever.
Also quick thing, how fucked up is this distopian future? A company owns the earth and acts as its leader. The ships used to *save* humanity are advertised as luxury cruise liners. And one time someone brought up to me that people probably sold themselves to BnL just to get on the ship.
There is so much to unpack in this movie, and I know I will watch it all over again the first chance I get.
Never forget, the Axiom was just one ship of many, and it's the only one that ever returned to Earth.
@@ajmeraki4029 Incorrect. We see in the credits that many more ships return to Earth.
Wall-E is my favorite Pixar film of all time! This was really well made and sheds into some light on relationships and the emotions that these characters feel. I love it, keep it up
I love it, too! I think it’s a classic.
Wall-E was one of my favorite childhood movies, and it still holds up today!
God, this comment makes me feel old. “Still holds up today “! It’s not even an old film!
@@stanleysdad I know, I remember seeing the trailer for it!
Absolutely loved Wall-e as a kid, I remember just re-watching it over and over. Good ol memories.
Even to this day, i cry watching Wall-e.. it's my fav animated movie. Just thinking about a lonely robot left in a desolate world, is just the saddest thing. So it felt great when he found love in Eva~ The story telling is just so beautiful~ :')
Funnily enough I was talking about this to someone recently. Technically, WALL-E is a live-action film, or an interpretation of one anyway. All the live-action photos, the recorded messages, the BNL adverts in the DVD extras and the musical WALL-E watches are from centuries before when the film is actually set. Everyone's just deteriorated into weird blob-Humans over the last 700 years or so, and now look so different to how they started, they look like they're animated.
It's a live action movie with an extremely high level of CGI
Wall-E is my favourite Pixar film, I just love how beautiful the visuals, story, relationships, music, god the music and visuals, the characters, and just everything about it including the lack of dialogue and comedy is just amazing
I love the live action scenes. They make wall-e feel grounded and make me realize our modern era will one day be history.
The beginning of Walle is absolutely magical. When you were explaining how he was singing to the stars I got goosebumps and started tearing up! ❤
I thought every part of this masterpiece had been converted by essayists, but once again Eddie provides a new, brilliant, analysis!
Another certified hood classic
I actually started tearing up when I heard the little tune of Put On Your Sunday Clothes. I suppose I haven't seen Wall-E in a hot second, but just hearing that little tune sent me back to 2009 when I would watch the film all the time. I'd even play the video game that was made shortly after the film released. Damn, nostalgia hit me like a freight train.
1:24
Inside of Kingdom Hearts 3s Toy Story world you can spot a Pixar label on Buzz’s foot, so the answer is for some reason yes.
Thanks a lot. Now I have the "Hello Dolly" soundtrack as a sticky earworm. My sis used to play the 8-track over and over and OVER!
The fact both plots A and B are so good and harmoniously unionized makes the movie so much better cause both independently are perfect but the fact they lead into each other makes this a masterpiece of storytelling
My Disney+ show pitch is the story of what happened to the other ships in the BnL fleet - basically a bunch of Snowpiercers and Fallout Vaults... for kids! I mean the original had literal class sections after hundreds of years, but seemingly little practical difference between people except for a single figurehead. What if that... wasn't the case on other ships, with class struggles and security bots being used to maintain order and place. For Kids!
Touch is the humanity that we cannot break, being as close as two human beings might ever be. To reach out and hold somebody like the whole world can't tear us apart.
wall-e is genuinely my favorite movie of all time, great video man
Same
1:04 I just found this vid and you mentioning the queen now feels surreal in a neutral way.
One thing I want to note: the quote “I don’t want to survive! I want to live!” is one of the clearest examples of what makes a family movie a FAMILY movie and not a kid’s movie. Kids will laugh that the captain’s confusion making his speech less sensical (I certainly did), but as an adult you hear this and go “Wow, that’s deep.”
This should be more common in films, especially animated films. Pixar has sadly lost its way
Interesting you point this out. When I was younger and first watched The Incredibles, my child brain thought Helen was worried Bob was going back to superhero work (hence why she was getting more and more panicked). As I got older and rewatched the movie, I came to realize Helen actually suspected Bob was cheating and it kinda shocked me. This was clearly meant to appeal to the parents of the children, many of whom probably have been cheated on in the past and thus relates to a *different* audience.
It felt like a completely different movie simply based on my newer, wiser perspective of the world. As a kid, I saw myself as Dash in the movie but after the above realization, it suddenly flipped to the parents. In my opinion, this is THE PERFECT example of what FILM is. Pixar had this down to an art but sadly, it has lost its way. A lot of the older Simpsons episodes are written like this - your child brain will just goop up the entertainment but a parent/adult also watching would interpret a scene completely differently.
Definitely a fascinating aspect of the film.
Wall-E, my favorite Pixar film of all time, and in my opinion, the best one they've ever done.
You have no idea how much I love watching your video essays. A few months ago I was in a habit of putting your videos on to fall asleep too and now, while I'm super sick from stress, I'm re-re-re-rewatching them. I love you eddache and when I get enough money, ill subscribe to your patreon. ❤❤❤❤
Never realized how odd it really was for them to use live action in WALL-E. Probably the only animation movie I've ever seen where that happens like that
I'd always kind of assumed that the live action was for a sense of "now" and "then", but I think having it as a display of humanity on top of that also makes sense.
What about the fact that Wall-e is clearly cut from the same cloth as Johnny 5, just a newer / more compact model?
Is Wall-e from the same universe as Short Circuit ?🤔
Was so excited to see a Wall-E video, it's my favorite movie of all time, great video!
The opening of WALL-E being mostly wordless except for the BnL Advertisements actually really reminds me of the Charlie Chaplin film _Modern Times_ where Charlie Chaplin plays the role of a factory worker. In _Modern Times_, you never hear Charlie Chaplin or anyone he's in the scene with talk, but you _do_ hear speech coming from artificial sources, like some kind of television P.A. system and a vinyl record with instructions for some wacky sci-fi gadget to feed workers their lunch.
I'm sure it's not coincidence, _WALL-E_ and _Modern Times_ both have a number of similarities, they both critique capitalism and the systems that uphold it, they both feature a working-class person just trying to navigate the world and do nice things for others, and they both have the protagonist meet a cute girl and fall madly in love.
Difference is, though, that _WALL-E_ doesn't have the protagonist do cocaine in prison
Eddache always delivers a good vid
Wall-e in two sentences
1st part:Fallout 4 then he finds a plant
2st part:wall e goes to a spaceship and saves the humans race.
This movie made me cry, and I feel no shame in saying that
Same.
My love for WALL-E is what brought me to TH-cam back in 2008! And from there, discovering LEGO Stop Motion vids of WALL-E, and from there, the rest is history!
My all time favorite pixar movie. Really shaped my love for all things space, robots, and sentient AI.
Eddie, I really wish I could craft videos as well as you do. seriously, you're amazing.
I find it so hard to even hit 'publish' with videos like your own in existence...
your surf shark add is the BEST creator made ad I have ever seen. amazing..truly inspired by great classic comedy--- brilliantly done. nice job
It also needs to be noted the Gene Kelley he's speaking of is the master tap dancer, actor, singer from films like 'Singin In The Rain' and 'An American In Paris'. I love that a near half-century after his heyday, Gene had two pivotal ways to impact millennials and beyond - Cats Don't Dance (His last credit was as a consultant for the animated choreography of that 1996 animated film), and years after his passing - WALL-E!
The algorithms bought me to you and I'm stoked! Can't wait to check out more of your videos!
thank you eddie for another great video
THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT THIS FACT ITS ALWAYS GONE SO UNDERRATED THAT THE LIVE ACTION SCENES HELP THE AUDIENCE RELATE TO THE UNIVERSE
Absolutely loved wall e and I learned so much in this thank you again!
On the "does Toy Story exist in Toy Story?" The answer is yes. In Toy Story Racer on the PS1, one of the maps has in-universe ads for the movie
I was initially distinterested in this subject, but fuck me Ed this is one of your best videos! Well done mate
This is my favorite movie of all time, thank you for making a video about it Edd :)
The ending with the look at the stars amd then the movies stars gave me chills
WALL-E is one of my favorite movies of all time, and it always makes me cry.
The toy story movies definitely exist within Toy Story. You don't even need to make any logical leaps. When they pull the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command The Adventure Begins VHS into Andy's room, the box art has the toy story logo on it
6:30 Was pleasantly surprised to see one of my favorite episodes of my favorite Disney cartoon used as an example!
Possibly the smoothest transition into an ad sponsor I've ever seen. Well fuckin' done!
Of course, though, we can't ignore the modern sequel to this movie: DALL-E Mini.
Okay, it's only in the name inspiration, but still.
I was a big Hello Dolly fan before seeing Wall-e and i vividly remember how i felt at that opening shot of space with Michael Crawford singing. Perfectly sets the emotional tone for the film.
Wall-E is my favorite Pixar Movie. I saw a bit of Hello Dolly in High School before seeing Wall-E, but didn't know how it ended. Luckily my school did it my senior year. It was a lot of fun to be in, even if I was only in the chorus. Put on Your Sunday Clothes quickly became my favorite song. So upbeat and fun. No wonder Wall-E took a liking to it.
It's the comedy, heart, and research that brings me back to you again and again.
So, the strangest thing is that I love this movie and have watched it MANY times and not until now did I even notice that it was live action inside of animation!
Well there goes the space time continuum with Eddache’s questioning of Pixar withing Pixar
I think some people make the mistake of assuming wall-e is anti technology (which is dumb considering the main characters are robots), since it’s actually anti-consumerism (and possible anti-capitalism) not anti-technology
That psychedelic mind blow scene deserves and Oscar for editing damn dude looked sick
I know this is literally a blip of a point compared to the rest of the video... but.. I'm so confused why there are so many polarizing opinions about Happy Feet cropping up lately..
It's one of my favorite movies and I've heard four dif youtubers I watch bring it up semi-recently, saying they either love it or hate it?
Even Kojima brought it up somewhat recently in a Twitter thread to praise it (alongside other works by George Miller, where he kept referring to him as "God")
I get it, it's a weird fucking movie with a lot of stuff that doesn't usually mesh well. It treats its themes as being grand, earnest, and serious, which it delivers in a surprisingly nuanced way, but on it's surface, it's literally a silly, weirdly sexually charged jukebox musical about dancing penguins....but that's kinda one of the biggest reasons why I love it. It's just so odd. I've got lots of other reasons for liking it but.. I also get why it's not gonna be everyone's cup of tea, since it IS so strange.
I guess I'm just wondering like.. what happened to bring this movie to the forefront recently?
I like how Willard's president character is modelled on Reagan as a metaphor for unregulated capitalism
Genuinely have goosebumps after watching this, such an incredible film and an amazing video about it
i love this film so much, im so glad people still talk about it :)
Another certified music classic
great job
To me it felt like watching a live action cutscene from a videogame, like Myst or C&C.
I really loved this movie. I have it on DVD. It might be a bit skips, as it stops for a moment. But it's still good to watch.
2:42
i love how he talks about his hat first implying that he cares more about the hat than the actual breaking news
Eddy being a car furry (don’t have a better word for it.. Motörhead?) is the best part of this video
i like how you managed to talk about the pretty meaty topics in the film without sounding pretentious and also not spending half an hour to convey it
I love Wall e what a cute robot especially this scene 0:54
1:23 - 1:26
Kind of? During the scene where Ham is flicking through the tv channels in Toy Story 2 the old Pixar logo can be seen for a brief second
wall-e is one of my favorite films ever, i think the live action scenes were a great addition, it wouldn't be the same without those, specially the vintage songs; they fit so well in a post apocalyptic world, because they create a feel about how everything could have been, instead of those nigstmarish ruins towering over the black sky
They made me feel nostalgic for songs older than my parents
Fr
Wall-e just isn't the same without the weird live action sequences, the one scene makes it creepier.
Eddache is one of the few youtubers i watch who make the sponsor segments truly as entertaining as the main content
the other big name i can say makes good sponsors is Caddicarus
...the Brits might be onto something
how did this video make me almost cry
That last bit about singing to to stars got me, oof ouch my heart
This use of live action segments always perplexed me when I watched it as a kid
Wall-E is my favourite Pixar movie. Every time I re-watched it, I just loved it more.
that whole thing you did about pixar within pixar is actually a pretty big theory by The Theorizer. Its a great set of videos. Basically its like an infinite loop of pixar within pixar trying to unite all the universes. hard to explain.
The what reference was very appreciated. Great video lowkey wall-E scared me as a kid now it scares me still but not the film it’s how accurate to the future it appears to be maybe not the space stuff exactly but the point is made.
Great video
Tbh i loved the surfshark ad that was great
The live action portions were a little weird to first see as a kid, but I literally gave it that one thought and didn’t question it much after that. To me it kinda made sense. These people evolved to not needing to use their bodies as much for mobility and lack any physical activity. The blob-like bodies seems to track, though I guess by that logic, they should also be lacking in teeth by that point considering they drink all their food eventually.
Oh sick were doing the one scene thing again
That was deep…
Thank you I liked this
I think the use of live action for the Buy and Large CEO does a brilliant job of like, getting the warning and message of the movie across a lot more than an animated human would, because we’re seeing a real live person talk about it, not just a computer animated one.
Jesus that cosmic coincidence bought tears to my eyes
I saw Hello Dolly long before WALL-E came out, and loved it. So now every time I see WALL-E (which I also love), it makes me want to watch Hello Dolly again.
Oh, cool. This was uploaded on my b-day :D
Fuck this is so cool, that last factoid made me tear up a little.
I watched walk-e 14 times in 1 trip when I was a kid. I loved Wall-e as a kid
I'm not sure why but the story behind the "out there" take just brings a tear to my eye. Just one of those cosmic coincidences, I suppose.
Or its just because I've been off my meds for a couple months. Either or.
