Line 6:
** The first time watching WALL-E, I thought that his {{spoiler|reawakening by EVE's kiss at the end}} was pure [[Deus Ex Machina]], as I didn't see how {{spoiler|that little spark could do all that}}. Then, rewatching {{spoiler|their first kiss}}, I realized that you could interpret {{spoiler|his [[Post-Kiss Catatonia|reaction]] as a system reboot}}. As such, the whole thing makes perfect sense: when {{spoiler|EVE repairs him after his fatal system crash, he boots up in safe mode, with just the base operating system running. One clean reboot later, and all user customization is restored, including 700 years of learned personality.}} -dscrank
** I realized what [[Beta Couple]] Mary and John represented after seeing their names next to each other. They represent mankind, plus they are two of the three humans who actually meet WALL-E. Do their names remind you of anyone? Hint: Think Mary and Joseph. The ending of WALL-E is {{spoiler|mankind creating a new beginning on Earth,}} it could be a way of saying their sins were being purged. Not sure if this was intentional, but it sure fits! -Gallows
*** I figured (thanks to the entry directly above) that is was Mary Magdalen and John the Baptist- The two most commonly-recalled Apostles. They helped spread the word to which WALL-E had opened their eyes, even after WALL-E got [[The Messiah|taken down]] in a [[Hoist
**** The names always seemed significant to me until I read that they are also the two most common names in English, showing how humans stopped thinking about things such as names or prehaps showing they were named by a robot that woud only know really common names. - bookworm389
**** [[Critical Research Failure|Mary Magdalen and John the Baptist were not Apostles.]]
Line 22:
** Plus, we see him take off his treads when he enters his "house"... maybe those sorts of things are more like clothes. It's still a bit creepy to take clothes off of corpses, but not ''that'' creepy.
*** Frankenwoobie!
* [[Fridge Horror]]: It's presumed that all Pixar movies so far take place in the same universe. In pretty much all of the Pixar movies, one can find a reference to another Pixar movie. In Wall-E, the Pizza Planet truck can be seen, just briefly, in the garbage pile. In [[Toy Story]] 3, it's even shown that Buzz Lightyear runs on Buy 'n Large batteries. Seeing the other Pixar movies making references to each other implies that they're all linked together. (such as [[Toy Story]] references in [[Finding Nemo]], Cars, and [[Monsters, Inc.]].) That means in WALL-E, a film taking place in the future, all the characters from the other movies may be dead. Seeing how polluted the earth is, [[Finding Nemo|clownfish may even be extinct.]] If the toys from [[Toy Story]] haven't died yet, it means they just wander the wasteland forever, no one to play with them and only waiting for death...
** Well, yeah, but that's not to say they all didn't live long, happy lives. It's like if they made a movie about dinosaurs. Unless it ends with a meteor flying through the sky, it's not confirmed they died immediately. But still, by the time the other movies take place [[Foregone Conclusion|dinosaurs have gone extint.]] The lovable characters have died by then, but life goes on. It's not that bad.
** Actually, all of a sudden, ''[[Cars]]'' [[Fridge Brilliance|makes perfect sense]]. The automobiles are all the super-advanced AI-controlled auotomobiles that everybody left behind when they abandoned Earth.
Line 31:
** Of course, Rex could be up and about while WALL-E is off at work, which could make for a pretty interesting (albeit creepy) spin-off short...are you reading this, Pixar and/or Wallace Shawn?
* Near the end of the movie, while the Captain {{spoiler|fights AUTO for control of the ship,}} it starts tilting. The gravity also tilting. But if they're in space, a 0G environment, with artificial gravity, wouldn't it be the same no matter the ship's orientation?
* [[Fridge Horror]]: It is implied that at one point the captains {{spoiler|want to return to earth to fix things}} that Auto {{spoiler|has killed every generation leading to the plot's timeline, slowly getting more and more control}}. It is likely he would've been running the show by the next generation, [[Spanner in
** Probably not EVERY captain. Least, not the ones that listened to AUTO anyway.
* Near the beginning of the movie, Eve's fondness of her [[BFG]] and general trigger-happy tendencies seem a little brash for a well programmed, professional piece of equipment. Of course, that's just the point- Eve was programmed to think of Earth as wild and dangerous for living things, just like Auto. To her, Earth is land of [[Everything Trying to Kill You]].
