== WALL-E suffers from a case of [[Memento (Film)|anterograde amnesia (Short-term memory loss), similar to that of Leonard Shelby]]. ==
* His insistance to say his name at almost any time is the result of his short-term memory loss causing him to forget he ever said it to the people in question. Thus, he finds it important that he introduces himself with his customary greeting, "WAAALL-EEEE"
** What? He only says his name to every character once.
Line 33:
However, the humans on one of these smaller ships ended up differently than the ''Axiom's'' passengers. These humans managed to stay in shape and even colonized other planets in a galaxy far, far away. What does this lead to? [[Star Wars|You guessed it...]]
* You're kidding, it's obvious from the evil AI that is AUTO that it leads [[Battlestar Galactica|here]].
** Nonsense, AUTO is jettisoned from the ship, breaks in half, and goes through a wormhole. Since he got split in half, he not only went insane, but each "robosome" which comprised his "male" identity separated. The "X" robosome went into an alternate dimension where it was discovered by an [[Portal (Video Gameseries)|Aperture Science research pod]] and developed into a robot for experimental weapons testing, whereas the "Y" robosome half was used to build HAL. (incidentally, his eye was a separate piece entirely and drifted off with the Y robosome.
*** Furthermore, these universes exist entirely in the [http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/pod_bay_doors.png XKCD universe]. And now to make sense of the BG and SW tie-ins. After the simultaneous events of ''[[Portal (Video Gameseries)|Portal]]'', ''Portal: Still Alive'', any other ''Portal'' sequels, and ''2001: Space Odyssey'', the X and Y robosomes recombine, to once again be AUTO, which then creates BG. Oh, and, the SW thing happens uninterrupted because one of the smaller ships didn't have AUTO.
* Likewise, C-3PO, R2-D2, and the rest of them were based on robotics technology originally developed by Buy 'n' Large before they changed from a [[Mega Corp]] into something else entirely. This organizational metamorphosis was marked by a name change from ''Buy 'n' Large'' to ''The Galactic Empire'', which market research proved would be 130% more memorable on planets with no form of commerce, and, thus, no concept of "buying." Plus, the "BnL Death Star" would have just sounded odd.
* Considering that there was a Republic before the Empire, which lasted several thousand years, it must be concluded that after a few millennia, people rebelled against BnL, forming their own government. BnL remained as a tiny dot on the galactic map, and over the centuries of Republic rule became the Corporate Sector, as you can't call yourself "Large" when you're a minority.
** Relatedly, the fall of Buy 'n' Large occurred due to the rise of the Jedi- once people discovered a resource/Force that could not be controlled or regulated by BnL, its control started to slip as people looked to the Jedi for stability. Being peace-loving and minimalist in methods, the Jedi went on to support democratic self-rule
** That or they became the Trade Federation.
Line 48:
* Does that mean that in the timeline where the plant ''is'' found, and Earth ''is'' recolonized - maybe the remaining toxicity in the Earth's atmosphere causes sped-up mutations, allowing humans to develop superpowers eventually, which means the robots don't need to be mass-distributed anymore, and in a few generations.... ''The Incredibles.''
** Along with the Marvel universe, several decades before Mr. Incredible is born.
** Does this mean ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]'' is descended from Wall-E too?
*** Of course. The announcer is GLaDOS, who is AUTO. Transitive Property here.
 
Line 54:
Picks up after the above theory leaves off with Wall-E building other robots. He first starts off building simple robots out of the junk around him, salvaging the circuitry from other Wall-E robots, giving them the same characteristics he has including his ability to "transform" into a box. Unbeknownst to him, he also transfers a "spark" of sentience to each of these robots. Eventually he starts making more and more sophisticated robots out of the abandoned cars lying around, once again building in a "transforming" capability. [[Transformers|You can probably see where this is going too....]]
* This would mean Earth becomes - no, not Cybertron, but rather the Junkion planet. The upstart robot race decides to leave the Earth just as the humans did, settling on a large asteroid that ''does'' become Cybertron, while other robots stay behind to become the Junkions.
** However, one of the sentient robots leaving for what eventually becomes Cybertron is somehow left forgotten in Earth's orbit. With nothing but a bunch of old space junk to keep him company, he naturally begins to brood a lot of resentment. After the pasage of much time, he eventually learns to manipulate all the junk in orbit into a new, much larger body. [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Unicron ''Much'' larger, scarier, and with a deep Orson Welles-ish voice].
** And eventually, a new planet is colonized by the humans, and society begins anew. That would explain some...[http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Carbombya "inconsistencies"] between earth in Transformers and earth in the show.
* Furthermore, if WALL-E is the source of the Transformers, he is Primus, and was sealed by his descendants inside the asteroid that became Cybertron because his aging circuits could no longer handle running his world.
** It follows, of course, that The Matrix is a crystal version of WALL-E's ''Hello Dolly'' video, to which minds have been added over the years. It can destroy Unicron because, being his children, all Transformers have a love of ''Hello Dolly'', and that love touches something buried deep in Unicron, specifically, something buried right around where the self destruct button is.
 
== Alec Azam, from the short film Presto (which plays before WALL-E), was an [[Portal (Video Gameseries)|Aperture Science]] test subject. ==
That rabbit was clearly thinking with portals.
* On top of that, he was being strung along by an obviously sadistic authority figure with the promise of food after he finished his job, only to use said authority figure's "technology" against them in the end. Sound familiar?
 
== Axiom technology was reverse engineered from the [[Doctor Who (TV)|Daleks]] ==
A Dalek may have landed on pre-BnL Earth. The humans decided to kill it and harvest its technology, resulting in spaceships and robots. However, some of the machines acted like their technological ancestors with death rays, [[Cyber Cyclops|singular eyes]], and phallic appearances. And the Dalek legacy is still seen in the form of a pink robot that shoots out make-up.
* And the humans were slowly becoming Daleks. Honestly, they were just fat blobs in chairs that only communicated with technology. They are almost ''always'' in that chair.
Line 75:
** Okay, THAT thought is [[Nightmare Fuel]] because I've been eagerly following their spacecraft development.
*** They actually have an aircraft named EVE, BTW.
* At some point they're going to eat Toyota for their [https://web.archive.org/web/20090426164503/http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Top-Gear-Toyota-Chair_199770.htm fantastic wheel] <s> chairs</s> couches.
* There's actually a real group called the [http://www.wall-ebuilders.com WALL•E Builders] and they have built many different robots from the film including WALL-E, EVE, M-O and Auto.
 
Line 94:
*** That was pretty much my interpretation. Specifically, although the film gives a specific meaning to the acronymn, the name WALL-E certainly sounds like one which a robot made by Wallmart might have.
** I always thought Buy-N-Large was a little too benevolent for a corrupt megacorporation. Building a giant fleet of spaceships to cart the entire human race offworld, with plans to stay there indefinitely, while zillions of robots you designed and built stay on earth to clean up after yourself? All on the company's dime? Come on. Merging with the government explains this plot hole pretty well.
**** Buy-N-Large is a secret branch of the Apeture Science Marketing department.
 
== The Wall-E units are imported from [[Star Wars|Tatooine.]] ==
Seriously, [[Main/Master Hand|I]] ''swear'' I've seen a droid in one of the ''[[Star Wars]]'' movies that looked almost exactly like Wall-E.
* Were you perhaps thinking about Luke's Treadwell farming droid from ''A New Hope''? If that's the case, then yes, the resemblance is quite uncanny. The only real difference is that Wall-E has a much shorter neck and a more substantial body...
** Not to mention that the two L's in WALL-E's name stand for Load Lifter. A certain type of droid in Star Wars is known as a Binary Load Lifter.
Line 140:
* Well, the president of BnL had to have had some ship of his own for he and his staff to leave.
* This isn't a mad theory, this is confirmed by the movie. The ''Axiom'' is specifically said to be 'the jewel of the Buy 'N' Large Fleet', and dozens of ships are seen taking off.
** Although it would take between 10,000 and 11,000 ships to get all of our current population into space, at 600,000 per ship.
*** Perhaps due to the massive amounts of pollution and the decreased amount of resources, the population decreased significantly some time before the ships took off.
*** The Axiom is 'the jewel of the Buy 'N' Large Fleet'. There is nothing to say that this is the only fleet. other organizations may have built much larger ships.
 
Line 165:
 
== Wall-E is a Toy ==
We know by [[Word of God]] that our Wall-E was the only robot that actually worked. Why? Because this takes place in the future of ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]''. 700 years ago, not everyone was rich enough to flee in the BnL ships. One poor family that stayed behind to eventually suffocate survived long enough for their child to find a malfunctioned Wall-E and take some final comfort in playing with him. This made him come alive. When the child died, Wall-E's core programming was able to interact with his Toy status enough to keep him running.
* All other Toys either went with their owners on BnL ships or died when there were no more children left on the planet.
** Well, they "died" only in the sense that they were no longer sentient, as shown by WALL-E's Hamm doll.
Line 189:
My theory is that Wall•E was built around some kind of base code, which was used to make all sorts of robots. Those who needed personalities had the personality code 'linked' into their operation, those who didn't need them (like Wall•E) had it just locked away rather than actually deleted. (This is common programming practice; it takes more work to delete than to just lock away.) Wall•E, over years of operation far outstripping the intended usage, has had corrupted code that's linked back into his personality coding, but the unpredictable nature of it has made his personality somewhat neurotic.
 
* Or, alternately, you can believe [https://web.archive.org/web/20130811201323/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4452250/1/Earth_2110_A_WALLE_Prequel_Story this little oneshot.]
* The robots in WALL-E are shown to be very intelligent and capable, especially WALL-E himself. I assume that robots designed to work for long periods of time alone on planetary surfaces are equipped with strong problem-solving and awareness modules, which effectively develop into sentience.
* Wall-E gained a personality from his constant exposure to Hello Dolly. Not because of Hello Dolly itself, but because it was the only external stimuli that would appeal to higher brain functions. AI functions. Whatever. Also, the songs and their core values helped to develop his personality. If he had been exposed to some other song over the years, his personality would have changed accordingly:
Line 196:
** You've Got the Touch: Wall-E would be very, very [[Badass]]. Also, his collection of stuff would be bigger.
*** And shinier.
** Never Gonna Give You Up: Same as above, only he would try to court MO instead of EVE>
** I shudder to think what would've happened if Wall-E had found Miley Cyrus' "Best of Both Worlds".
*** Annihilation of mankind for its crimes. We got very, very lucky.
Line 202:
** [[Soundtrack Dissonance|It's A Wonderful World: The movie never would have happened because something would wind up killing him by the time the song finished playing.]]
** Ha ha, now you've got me amused thinking what would have happened had the film been [[The Wall]] and Wall-E had been listening to [[Pink Floyd]]. I find that a twistedly delightful notion.
** If it had been Haruhi Suzumiya, Wall-E would have kidnaped... err... kindly asked EVE to join his version of the S.O.S. Brigade due to the fact she an "alien", eventually forcing... err.. asking kindly him nicely to let him go with her to find find an "Esper" robot and a robot from the future. However Wall-E would be unsure whether she's the "Yuki" due to being an alien or the "Kyon" due to him dragging her around and forcing to do things.
** [[American Psycho]]: Wall-E, sick of being constantly confused by the myriads of other Wall-Es that look and act exactly like him, kills them all. He meets Eve, who is also a trigger happy murderer of the most deranged kind. He falls in love with her.
** [[Michael Jackson]]: [[Your Mileage May Vary]]. I personally like the image of him trying to moonwalk and painting one hand silver.
Line 217:
 
== In the new society at the end of the movie, robots are treated equal to humans. ==
This troper found it funny how despite being bored, spoilt and terminally lazy, the inhabitants of the Axiom as a whole seem to be rather good-natured, and quick to refer to WALL-E as 'that guy' rather than 'that robot'. Since they haven't been paying attention to robots for centuries, and by the time they notice them they've become [[Ridiculously -Human Robots|ridiculously human]], quite possibly they don't see any reason not to treat the robots with the respect they'd give any other human. The robots seem to fade out of the picture in the end sequence, but one is seen alongside a human as they try to catch fish with a net. Possibly while the humans are busy rediscovering culture and civilisation, and bringing life back to Earth, the robots are helping them but also continuing to explore their own humanity. Who says you can't get away with [[Happily Ever After]] anymore?
* Why are the humans on Axiom mostly good-natured? I think it's because they've gone generations without being forced to spend a significant portion of their lives locked into performing dull tasks, competing for (perhaps artificially) scarce resources, and vying to survive amidst cutthroat office politics. Uh...no, I don't think I'm carrying any "baggage"...what exactly do you mean?
 
Line 229:
 
== WALL-E is R.O.B. ==
After the Earth's clean-up was finally finished, WALL-E didn't need to be a trash compactor anymore. The Axiom's scientists swapped out WALL-E's trash-compactor torso for a sleeker model, improved the power of his laser, and replaced his treads with thrusters. They gave the same treatment to the other WALL-E models, and changed his acronym, since he is no longer a waste allocation robot. Many years later, WALL-E lives on a floating island (courtesy of the Axiom's tech) with his fellow WALL-E units. This explains why we can have two similar looking robots that are so painfully [[Woobie|woobieish]]. The reason why he ended up doing what {{spoiler|[[Super Smash Bros (Video Game).|Tabuu]]}} wanted is simple. He took EVE hostage.
* Because EVE is never seen in the game, it means that she was held in Subspace... which was essentially erased from existance. Shortly after the ending of the game, WALL-E/R.O.B., realising that all the other robots are gone and there's no reason for him to continue existing, starts a fighting tournament in which he will eventually be destroyed. This tournament is, essentially, all normal Smash Bros. gameplay.
* Alternatively, when Ganondorf shows up to control all of the other R.O.B.s, he makes an offhand comment about EVE being destroyed for scrap. This is why WALL-E/R.O.B. has to be carried off the island -- he cannot comprehend a world without her, so simply becomes catatonic... but then decides to avenge EVE by destroying Tabuu. This then leads to the conclusion of the above theory.
Line 236:
The ending of Metropolis is eerily similar to the setting of WALL-E. Humans have left in a space ship, robots are left on Earth and the planet is a dump.
 
== WALL-E is a retelling of ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' ==
WALL-E is The Doctor, EVE is his companion, Hal the cockroach is Jack Harness the Immortal, and AUTO is The Master.
* Too simple. A better guess would be that it's the American version of [[Doctor Who (TV)/Recap/S31 /E02 The Beast Below|Starship UK]]. The Brits get a [[Space Whale]], the Yanks channel [[Wal Mart]] and [[Virgin Galactic]].
 
== Someone ships HAN-S/M-O ==
Line 244:
 
== AUTO Pilot is the descendant of, or mutated form of, OTTO Pilot from ''[[Airplane!]]''! ==
[[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin]]. At the very end of ''Airplane!'' We see {{spoiler|OTTO pilot, resurrected, now with an inflatable girlfriend and a functioning eyelid, taking command of the now wheelless plane and sending it soaring. Clearly he has big plans}}, having gotten a taste for humanity, a taste for control, a taste for... {{spoiler|fish}}.
 
Alternately, ''Airplane!'' is ''WALL-E'' from AUTO/OTTO's point of view.
Line 260:
EVE and GO-4 have Syndrome's forcefield thingies, and he did say he was going to commercialize the designs... Maybe his successor did?
* Not to mention the electronic voices of the pool robot and help kiosk being exactly the same as the sentry bird and Manta plane on Nomanisan.
* This would actually be an interesting way to reconcile the objectivist themes of the Incredibles and the anti-corporate themes of Wall-E. After the events of the Incredibles, people began seeing the power of the individual and Ayn Rand made a come back. Because of this, more political decisions were made to favor corporations and things like anti-trust laws and environmental regulations fell by the wayside. This directly leads to the rise of Buy N Large which, as we saw in Wall-E, totally ruins the planet.
 
== Buy N Large used to be [[Repo! theThe Genetic Opera|Geneco]] ==
After {{spoiler|Amber}} took over, it was expanded into a company that provided everything the ailing planet needed, not just organs. A few generations later (with a new CEO), the organ failure crisis got worse and it was blamed on the level of pollution, which had skyrocketed. By sending up the spaceships, Geneco got what it had always wanted: control over the entire human population.
 
Of course, the Earth they left behind still looked rather similar, with Big Brother-ish TV screen advertisements for the all-powerful corporation everywhere.
 
== WALL-E has {{Main/[[Tsukihime |Mystic Eyes}}]] ==
The Mystic Eyes of Woobiness! Truly, one of the most powerful of them all!
 
== Buy N Large was taken over by the [[The Hitchhiker's Guide to Thethe Galaxy (Franchise)|Sirius Cybernetics Corporation]]. ==
They wanted to see what made their robots tick, and used them for their Genuine People Personality Project. Of course, Marvin was based on Wall-E's programming, and he's so depressed because there is only one EVE.
 
Line 280:
== WALL-E is a prequel to ''[[Futurama]]'' ==
Explains the [[Anachronism Stew]] involving much of the culture and technology, how Old New York became abandoned, and why all the robots have personalities and genders. All the famous heads in jars were stored somewhere on the Axiom.
** What about the D & D-esque [[UberwaldÜberwald]] that rises and is later razed by ''[[War of the Worlds]]''-style aliens? The end credits show the city going from scrapyard to San Francisco... unless Wall-E's city isn't New York...
** Don't you remember? Bender destroys it after being chased by Sweedish police.
* Also explains why they now have a mental institution for Criminally Insane Robots.
 
== WALL-E is the distant future of ''[[Brave New World (Literaturenovel)|Brave New World]]'' ==
Considering how obsessed that society was with happiness and extreme consumerism, they used up the world eventually and had to leave. Also somewhere between those two points in time, robots were developed and eliminated the need for lower caste humans.
* Also explains how there can be babies in the future, when mankind is way too fat to reproduce.
Line 319:
''They've been returning for years''. Or weeks. But [[Rule of Drama]].
* There must've been some thinning of gravity for a giant dust storm to blow from wherever they landed all the way to WALL-E's city.
** Butterfly effect. Storms can go thousands of miles in [[Real Life]]. And the storms could have been picking up dust the whole way, with no plants to keep the soil anchored. Also, we don't actually know ''how'' far away they landed, maybe just over the horizon.
 
== Buy N Large engineers have way too much funding and way too much time on their hands. ==
Line 363:
OK, so this troper really has no idea if there's ever going to ''be'' a sequel, so this is really more of a hope than a guess. But in the off chance that there is one, I think that Luxo Jr. would make an awesome addition to the cast. Him and WALL-E already have a great rapport together (what with Luxo's bulb being replaced by WALL-E, and WALL-E joining him to form PIXAR), so how cool would it be to have them in the same film? Plus, I think it would be awesome just to see both of them again.
 
== WALL-E is set in the same universe as [[Short Circuit (Film)|Short Circuit]] ==
 
== WALL-E is the future of the world seen in Jennifer Government ==
The two mega-corporations, US Alliance and Team Advantage, eventually merge, becoming the Buy-n-Large corporation. In the face of such economic power, the Government wilts and disappears. With no Government oversight, [[Bn L]]BnL trashes the planet, and takes all of it's happiest consumers to space, leaving the WALL-Es behind mainly as a token and to pander to the investors.
 
== WALL-E is Pixar's gift to the world of fiction ==
Line 372:
 
== The scout ship took a long while to get to the Axiom. ==
The scout ship didn't have a hyperdrive, so it must have traveled at below the speed of light to get to the Axiom. The long travel time, both going to Earth and coming back, explains why no humans were aboard (they would have died of old age, if boredom didn't kill them first). Thus, the early scenes of Wall-E on Earth was much less then 500 years since the launch of the Axiom.
* Only problem with that theory is that Wall-E's pet roach was still alive when he came back. I'd be willing to believe several months passed, though.
* The screenplay points out "weeks" passing with WALL-E on the back of the ship, so while it didn't take YEARS, he wasn't there for a few hours either.
 
== The Axiom was parked over a large gravitational body ==
When AUTO realized he was expected to keep humanity on the ship indefinitely, he had to find some way to deal with the problems of micro-gravity on the human body. Note that the message from the [[Bn L]]BnL CEO clearly shows that he expected the human-ball-of-dough effect to occur within the original span of the Axiom's mission, instead of the generations where it did occur. Auto found a suitable source of external gravity and put itself over the object to keep the Axiom positioned so the body could produce a close to 1-Earth G field on the Axiom. It kept the thrusters firing on a rotating pattern, so that at least one set of thrusters was on at any given moment. This explains why everyone was aboard when the ship 'tilted', since AUTO had changed the ship's angle to the gravitational source.
** I really want to say [[You Fail Physics Forever]]. I really do. But since we're discussing a film where it's apparent the creators do (or at least ignored it for drama)... <sigh>
 
Line 408:
 
== WALL-E takes place in the same universe as [[One Piece]]. ==
[[Bn L]]BnL didn't have to go around buying a ton of small governments; there was already one World Government that was easily overthrown because of their already crumbling state. This also explains the nautical influence of the cruseliners, [[Kawaisa|why all the robots are designed so cutely]], and why everybody speaks the same language.
 
== M-O has a detective monologue running in his head. ==
Imagine an ultra-serious film noir monologue in the same vein as [[Watchmen (Comic Bookcomics)|Watchmen]]. "The world will look up and shout, 'clean us.' And I'll say 'whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa' and get to work." Or something like that.
 
== The other EVE units will try to hit on Wall-E. ==
Line 425:
 
Also, to sustain a large population in luxury for centuries, IN SPACE, requires the use of [[Applied Phlebotinum]] applied to recycling and energy sources, so the technology should be available for people remaining on earth. And if you can survive in space for centuries, you can certainly survive on a perfectly good planet whose only real problem is that the air is unbreathable. (The ominipresent garbage? Raw materials).
So, there probably are other people living on Earth, most likely underground, because it's easier (and safer) to seal off a tunnel than to build a giant air-dome.
 
Why hasn't anyone run into WALL-E? Well,
Line 437:
== The real reason there was an evacuation was because [[Half Life|The Combine were coming.]] ==
 
[[Bn L]]BnL didn't want to panic the people when they found out that the combine were coming to destroy the entire place and only had 7 hours, so they said "Hey, there's a lot of garbage! We better go out into space!" and got out their space cruise ships which they made for a rainy day and ran like hell. Black Mesa and Aperture Science were two sections of [[Bn L]]BnL had, and one of them had to go since they were wasting money. That explains the rivalry.
 
So, basically, one problem. America was affected by the Seven hour war, you say. Well, I have an answer. They saw it coming. They got the warning and skipped off in their space ships while those who couldn't afford going out to space or were basically bait, were slaughtered by the Combine.
Line 448:
 
== WALL-E and The Road take place in the same universe. ==
While the unknown catastrophe is taking place, the rich escape on spaceships, and the rest of the population is left to slowly dwindle and die, like the father and the son. EVE finally returns after the remainder of the human race is wiped out.
 
== [[The Power of Love]] just helped reboot WALL-E's system. ==
Line 454:
However! Being "kissed" by EVE includes an electric jolt that causes a [[Post-Kiss Catatonia|system halt]]... and the resulting automatic reboot. This time, all systems initialise properly, including his long-term memory and all the "quirks" he had picked up.
 
== WALL-E and EVE are reincarnations of [[Atlantis: theThe Lost Empire|Milo and Kida]]. ==
Let's compare: WALL-E and Milo are [[Collectors Of The Strange]] who wear [[Nerd Glasses]] and yellow "clothes". Around the time they find themselves in a new world, they meet [[Action Girl|Action Girls]] EVE and Kida, white-haired blue-eyed glowy "tattooed" warrior women out to protect their people from impending doom.
** You could also argue they're some sort of incarnation of [[Avatar (Filmfilm)|Sully and Neytiri]] (he has wheels and can't leave the ground, she can fly; he's from a crapsack world, she can glow, etc), minus the nerdiness.
*** Or you couldn't, because aside from being less-fitting the analogy would link the CMoA to a... decidedly less universally-beloved property.
 
Line 467:
 
== The garbage disaster also had a biological componant ==
It's the same question raised about the Prawn weapons portrayed in ''[[District 9 (Film)|District 9]]''. Seriously, ''why'' would a simple exploration and retrieval probe (like the rovers that have been sent to Mars and the like) need military firepower of that magnitude? Something that could be used to remove debris or obsticals would make sense, [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|but something that could potentially wipe out fleets of warships]]?
 
Clearly, ''something'' was expected to be roaming the surface. With all the trash left on Earth, it wouldn't be surprising if legally questionable Industrial Waste or genetic experients were tossed out into the environment and possably into the food web. This would've lead to vicious, and [[Everything Is Trying to Kill You|''highly'' agressive monster versions of the wildlife]], and with an indefinite timeperiod inbetween launch and the start of the movie, it's possable that evolution would've gone into overdrive.
Line 484:
** Probably [http://chibiflix.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d21uxz5 this.] Either that of become a [[The Pornomancer|Pornomancer]].'
*** That depends. American, German, Swedish, or Japanese?
* Thank you, porn geographer. By dint of my own diseased mind I ask you imagine what might happen if Wall-E imprinted on [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Azumanga Daioh]]. 'Compacting is so fun/ Compacting is so fun/ Now it's time to press a cube and see what we have done!'
 
== ''WALL-E'' is a propoganda film made by Buy N Large ==
Line 507:
WALL-E is a stand-in Big Boss, so is EVE for EVA, AUTO for Volgin, M-O for Ocelot, and GO-4 for Raikov.
 
== This movie is an unofficial "prequel" to [[Mother 3 (Video Game)|Mother 3]]. ==
The backstory of Mother 3 involves the end of the world occuring, and only a small amount of humans and animals are able to survive by taking a "white ship" to the Nowhere Islands, which is still habitable due to a magical dragon slumbering beneath it. The white ship is, of course, the Axiom (this means that not ALL humans made it to the cruise and some were sadly left behind), and the reason that humanity spends 700 years there without finding out that Earth is still habitable is because they don't send a probe to the Nowhere Island until Wall-E gives EVE the plant. Wall-E had already been living on the Nowhere Island, which could explain why he is presumably the only Wall-E left active. Anyway, after the humans come back to Earth, their memories are erased because of their wish to not harm the Earth anymore with technology, the robots all find some place separate from humans to live, and the society of the Nowhere Islands and Tazmily village as seen in Mother 3 is set up, and within a few generations, people learn how to stay in shape.
** ...This makes so much sense it's scary.
Line 520:
* The occupants rebel against AUTO and shoot themselves back at Earth- AUTO, being unable to learn or do anything but comply to BNL transmissions, fails to stop them, and never realizes that resisting disconnection is futile.
* The humans land on Earth, and try to reverse engineer the robot that convinced them to head back to Earth.
* They leave once again, leaving behind nothing but their reverse-engineered WALL-Es
 
Each time the poorly educated humans try to reverse engineer the robots, they steadily get worse, and they all die, save for one or two, until an EVE robot returns. There never was a BNL plan to pick up the trash, they just decided to send the company out into space for a few centuries while the Earth cleans itself up. The WALL-Es are the product of the first landing of The Axiom, which explans why they are more susceptible to quirks than the ship's robots, and why they have eyes that look like binoculars rather than glowing pixels on a computer screen.
 
== Mo is the real hero of this story ==
He tries throughout the film to thwart EVE's and Walle's evil plot to introduce deadly bacteria to which the crew of the Axiom have no immunities. John and the Captain were doomed the moment they touched [[Wall WALL-E]]. Mo did all the could to contain the spread of contaminants until he finally met up with them in the trash dump when he was finally able to sanitize Walle and prevent him from waging biological warfare on the Axiom. Unfortunately, Walle and Eve had a back up plan. Instead of bringing the germs to the Axiom, bring the Axiom to the germs. Mo failed in his mission and soon [[Downer Ending|everyone will die from the common cold.]]
 
== The Axiom was reverse engineered from another ship. [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|The Arc-Gurren]]. ==

== EVE was originally designed for warfare ==
EVE has an absurdly powerful laser cannon and it is rather [[Trigger Happy|trigger happy]]. However, it's a scout droid. If it was intended to be a scout droid, a simple-yet-powerful laser cutter would suffice for getting rid of obstacles. It was probably originally meant to be a droid used for warfare or for law enforcement, probably not having the codename of ''Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator''. When BnL realized that its control over the world made war unnecessary and impossible, it was redesigned into a scout droid. Unfortunately, cost-cutting and time-saving procedures let EVE keep its laser cannon and trigger happy nature.
* EVE originally meant: EXTREMELY Violent Exterminator?
== AUTO has killed several captains already. ==
Asides from the "Captain", there didn't seem to be any crew aboard and unlikely to have a system to train competent officers given the general cluelessness of the current captain.
* Also, an old WMG stated that EVA's have returned with plants before. Captains who got a hold of it and didn't listen to AUTO had "heart attacks"
** In a way, its possible that WALL-E saved the Captain's life by taking a jolt from AUTO, likely delaying AUTO's ability to give another jolt temporarily and allowing the Captain to wrestle AUTO down instead of dying from a "heart attack"
== Time Measuring Standards have been altered. ==
Its possible that a robot can "officially" be recorded as having been operating for over 700 years, without dealing with issues like wear and tear (or the fact that rust would turned him and any potential replacement parts to dust long before) because time is measured differently in WALL-E's world.
Line 542:
== AUTO can not fully override his core programing and will follow hardwired commands once inputted, HOWEVER, he can give these commands a lot of "interpretation" as long as it fits within mission parameters. ==
* That is why he HAS to send out EVE regularly to check if plant life has returned, despite the fact that if an EVE returned positive, AUTO would be forced to return, and violate the last order in was given: "Just stay in space."
** To minimize the risk that an EVE would return with plant life, Auto keeps directing the [[EV Es]] towards the crappiest, most polluted, most garbage packed place on Earth....however [[Spanner in Thethe Works|WALL-E]] has been on the job cleaning up the place, and miraculously, managed to save a plant and present it to EVE, then [[Hilarity Ensued]].
== The Earth is a lot less messed up than it looks. ==
During the ending, before the humans of the Axiom even had the chance to do more than take a few steps outside the ship, we can see that outside the city there are multiple plants already growing/thriving. Given that it looks like there are regular windstorms and climate change that has turned ports into drydocks, these are some damn tough plants!
