WALL-E is by far the best movie (of any type) I have seen in a very very very long time, period. It's probably a little too intelligent or subtle for a lot of people...
wall-e 's pro-ecological theme was about as subtle as 'hitting someone over with the head with a sledgehammer', which is what i suspect the
motive of selling this to children was for.....notice how 'kung fu panda'[which i refuse to watch] is beating this as its competition?
more numbers: week 5. another huge drop of 37%
Seventh goes to WALL-E, which is now in its fifth weekend. WALL-E earned $6.3 million and was off 37% compared to the previous frame. WALL-E has seen drops of 48%, 42%, 46% and now 37% - drops that are way too high for the usual Pixar film. Still, a current domestic gross of $195.2 million is great, and it will slightly surpass Ratatouille's final gross of $206 million, which is in the lower echelon of Pixar releases.
'horton hears a who' which was decent was much more interesting as a storyline..

Oh yeah, real big surprise that Wall-E had another big drop. Let's see, TDK is still going strong (quickest movie to $300 million) and it had to compete with X-Files, which seems to have had a fairly lackluster opening (most likely due to TDKs continuing numbers). Yeah, I'm real surprised Wall-E took another hit. And of course huge numbers of people were at Comic-Con this weekend.
Kung Fu Panda (which I liked and thought was very funny by the way) is only ahead of Wall-E by $15 million.
Hey, notice how Hancock, a shitty movie about a homeless guy that's a "super hero" dropped 3 places to number 6? And how it's just $11 million ahead of Wall-E? But I guess it's a winner since it's making more money.
So why are you refusing to watch Kung Fu Panda? Do you not like Jack Black (the voice of the Panda)? Or is it "not deep enough" for you? Seriously, sometimes you just need to enjoy a movie for what it is and not look for some deeper meaning that only the few "select" will get.

i don't happen to like 'cutesy' animals/robots/etc...............granted 'car's didn't appeal to everyone either, although i liked it because i've always been biased towards cars....
So you're probably going to hate most every CG animated movie that's released then. At least the one's from Pixar.
