Yes, Wall-E is the reason he's here doing press in Australia, but the article also mentions Indiana Jones 4 and Munich as other projects Ben has worked on in recent years. I like how the article mentions it's not Munich that his criticism is being directed at.
Poor Ben Burtt, when I hear his name I no longer think of the voice of R2-D2 or the inventor of the lightsaber hum, but the dejected guy in the editing room inventing 'split screen two different takes' editing.
