"We then got to see Wall-E. Wall-E ranks up there with Ratatouille as being one of the best movies Pixar has done so far, and they manage to move in a new and exciting direction! I'd say 1/2 of the movie is done without dialogue, and consists of the main characters saying each other's names, gesturing and making robot noises. You'd think it wouldn't work out, but it works perfectly! Not only do you get the plot without the need for dialogue, the characters really convey their impressively wide range of motions with subtle gestures. The character of Wall-E himself is amazing. He's the most likeable characters Pixar has created, and so human! He's so human-like that his personality infects others around him like a virus (a good virus). I couldn't stop watching him! The plot itself is compelling, the story moves along really well, and you really get into it. The look of the movie is also amazing, with great sweeping vistas of the future of Earth... so desolate and bare... as well as the future of humanity... so commercial and devoid of life. It's such a stark contrast to Ratatouille, which had a richer palette with warm colors. As with both Ratatouille and Wall-E, Pixar did an amazing job with making it look so real! Ratatouille made stuff familiar to us look realistic, while Wall-E made us believe in these new futures of Earth and humanity. Finally the end credits were some of the best I've seen... downright breathtaking and really shows Pixar's creative breadth and the overflowing talent of its artists."
"Wish I could share more, but alas - there's that whole confidentiality agreement and the fear of being suddenly unemployed! The Party was a bast, however (they always are!) we even had a couple of 'friends' share in the fun with us (the 'Crying Trailer Watching Girl' you might have seen on YouTube, and maybe one or two others I'm afraid to speak about), the food was great, and the movie was fantastic (speaking strictly as a fan!) Dare I say it: this century's E.T.! The short you'll find attached to the movie is perhaps our most hilarious short films ever! I think you guys will really like this one!"

"I don't know if "Wall-E" is Pixar's best film to date. It's undoubtedly the best film I've seen all year and after repeat viewings (which it absolutely deserves), it may very well take that number one slot among Pixar's filmography. But it doesn't really matter how you rate Pixar's films because whether you're a Pixar-devotee or a neophyte, "Wall-E" goes beyond a simple rank or score. I can only recommend that you see it as soon as you can."
This is definitely one of the most ambitious pictures that Pixar has ever made. Seeing Pixar’s version of sci-fi is a lot of fun (I have always had a soft spot for cartoon science fiction, such as DUCK DODGERS). A lot of people are going to fall in love with the main character of this film. Thanks to some great design and some superb animation, that rusty robot is a very, very appealing little guy on screen. I worked on WALL-E a few years ago, doing a little work in the art department followed, by a short stint in the story team. And yet, it has been so long since I had seen any of the story reels that there had been quite a few changes to the story, so I had some surprises in watching the film. Being able to watch a movie that you’ve worked on with more-or-less fresh eyes is a treat.
The big surprise for me was seeing PRESTO, the new Pixar short directed by Doug Sweetland. I had heard nothing at all about what this project was about, although I knew that it was being made, and that some great talents (such as Doug Sweetland, Teddy Newton and the mighty Ted Mathot) were working on it. Because I knew nothing at all about it, it was a real joy to watch. It has a great premise that is beautifully designed, full of clever ideas, involving some really funny, broad physical comedy… all brought to life with whip-crack animation timing and great posing. It is probably my favourite Pixar short, so far. I wont say anything more, lest I spoil the fun for the rest of you.
Then we watched the new short film that plays before Wall-E, and the movie!!!!!! I won't give any details about it now because it doesn't come out for 3 weeks so I don't think we can talk about it. Also I don't want to give away the movie because it is one of Pixar's BEST FILMS YET. It is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was so awesome to see the final product, and tons of my work is in it!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhh! It's so amazing. My basketball globe that made an appearance in the trailers is now in full force in the movie, you see it in a whole bunch of shots. My "spikey heart", fire hydrant, and tons of other work I did is quite large on screen too. The UV Mapping on the garbage and the garbage cubes looks particularly good too, in my humble opinion. Awesome!!!!!!!!!
We went to the San Francisco Film Institute's first public screening at their campus in Emeryville. Everyone's sworn to secrecy, but for a film with little dialog, it carries more of an emotional punch and has a richer story than any live-action movie this year. The tone and style of the film is completely different for Pixar, and Disney haven't tried to override the darker thematic elements at all, making the story surprisingly three-dimensional.
This will end up being the animated film of the year and I had the same 'wow' feeling as after seeing Ratatouille. Considering that animated films have always played second-fiddle to live-action, and have been aimed at kids, it's ironic that once again Pixar produces a film that rivals any live action on every level. Bravo!

More from the same reviewer:
I was lucky enough to see the movie at Pixar Studios in Emeryville and I have to say...
It's easily the best film in the last 1-2 years.
I'm not allowed to talk specifics, but I'd say:
1) Lack of dialog is a good thing. It reminds me why we watch films in the first place. 2) The change in Pixar's style is total and amazing: you won't believe how it looks. 3) There's a social commentary angle which is quite dark but very intriguing. I'm surprised Disney let it go, but I guess Pixar calls the shots these guys.
Anyway, go see it!
