How are these people not getting sued by the creators of "Short Circuit?" Johnny 5 is still alive in my heart. Steve Guttenberg on the other hand...

You ruined the ending! There was going to be a twist where the robot turns out to be Johnny 6!

You make it sound as if sentient robots are sooo innovative.

You know, watching a single trailer will show you why Pixar is not being sued by the makers of Short Circuit. They have very little in common and considering the whole binoculars for a head isn't a new thing at Pixar (spoiler alert: WATCH FUCKING TOY STORY!), I'm not shocked by Wall*E's appearance.

"...a handful of levels lifted from the film, partnered with mind numbing icon collecting and actors delivering lines with all of the enthusiasm of a cheese sandwich."

A perfect description of what this game will likely be. And of course THQ will be singing the praises that the original movie voice actors will be used in the game, but really, who cares?

Oh please let it be as good as the ET game was for Atari.

Actually, it looks like it could be the same game with him just being painted silver - sweet.

Default movie-to-game question: Is Vin Diesel signed up?

"Excited yet?"

No.

Also that thing looks the bastard child of Johnny 5, ROB and that tank thingy in the Terminator movies.

So Johnny 5 knocked up an NES R.O.B and named the progeny Wall-E, oh that is just Freak nasty. Now that is some video game news right there.

If you haven't, PLEASE watch the trailer. I'm pretty sure the game will be crap, but this movie will be something special. Also, Johnny 5 had eyebrow flaps, where as Wall-E only has the shape of his eyes to work with

There should be a level where the player must clean up the hundreds of thousands of copies of this game that were thrown out.

I agree, the movie looks good. Dreamworks may have had Shrek, but nothing compares to Pixar. Still haven't seen Ratatouille though.

Is anyone else getting tired of all these CG animated movies? It often seems like they make them just for the sake of CG...

Bring back real animation, come on...

In general, I agree with you. But Pixar makes some damn fine movies, regardless of the technology behind it. Though I also would like to see more traditional animated movies be made.

Lemme guess: 18 months of development and it's still going to be movie-licensed crap.

Although I did hear good stuff about Cars.
