Wall-E

It's time for a movie review. Go see Wall-E. Go see it now.

I was literally blown away. The visuals were stunning. First with a post-apocalyptic earth, then with the space scenes. Just....wow.

The story was simple, yet moving. I was in tears, and at the end I was literally rendered speechless for several minutes as I tried to process the movie.

Pixar has not done a bad movie yet, I enjoyed each and every one of them, but this is the first one to move me so. It's their crown jewel.

Now, not everyone may agree - Mrs. Hoerler liked it, but placed it more in the middle of the pack of the Pixar stable. But I freaking loved it, I will buy the DVD the very same day it comes out. Hell, I might have to see it in the theater again.

This will be a slam dunk for a Best Animated Feature nomination, and deserves to win.

But I am going to go one huge step further and say I think it should be nominated for Best Picture, period. It's a rated G animated movie that achieves so much more than most any other movie out there.

You don't need to have kids for an excuse to see Wall-E. Just go see it.

Well, I hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July. We went to Ma Hoerler's and food was grilled. The rest of the weekend was pretty relaxing, I got my laptop, and I have already started my writing.
