Hello and welcome to the we Recommend podcast, a movie podcast where every week we recommend a movie for you to watch and then come back here and listen to us discuss. I'm Jesse, I'm Jason, voice confirmation required. Uh, accepted Because this week we recommend WALL-E.
Speaker 2:WALL-E. I spent a lot of time. Okay, I didn't spend a lot of time, but I did look up the conspiracy theories on WALL-E. Oh really. I didn't know there was any. There's one where they believe that WALL-E is Satan. Okay, makes sense, he's good, because Eve comes Eve. It's like the Garden of that. Wally is Satan Okay, makes sense, he's good, because Eve comes Eve. It's like the Garden of Eden. Garden of Eden, eve gets the plant that destroys mankind.
Speaker 1:See, I was thinking that, I don't know. Wally is supposed to be Adam, eve is supposed to be. No, he is Satan.
Speaker 2:Okay, so we're just going to get the negative aspect the other one is um, where did all the food come from on the axiom?
Speaker 1:well, it's all, it's people oh, holy crap, it could be people.
Speaker 2:I yeah where is it coming from? Whoa soylent green as people. That's awesome. Yeah, they're definitely eating people.
Speaker 1:It's those babies. They're just lining them up. Hell yeah the taste. How are they having babies there?
Speaker 1:They can't even like what are they doing to have babies? They fuck. I mean, do you think they have like machines that move them? Yes, okay, that's what I thought of you. It's like they can't even. They can barely walk. How are they going to have sex? They just kind of roll around. Maybe they just do like IVF. Yeah, they probably have to donate sperm every once in a while. They just have machines. It's probably like they put a tube on the guy and then it leads to the girl.
Speaker 1:And then they just watch some sort of podcast.
Speaker 2:I was thinking more of like an in vitro fertilization, but like there's probably like some kind of jerk-off tent that they all kind of you know your chair wheels you in there, machine sucks you off. Saves your sperm for later. Saves your sperm.
Speaker 1:Cool, that's really cool. So welcome to the episode about this Pixar movie we're going to get deep into the details, we're going to get deep into the details we're going to get disgusting. This is going to be our filthiest episode yet.
Speaker 2:I'm glad you finally broke the seal on Disney.
Speaker 1:I have been waiting to do a Pixar movie and I just didn't know which one. And it just felt, for some reason, after Killing of the Sacred Deer, WALL-E felt right.
Speaker 2:Just wanted to be happy again. Just wanted to do WALL-E?
Speaker 1:Well, it's also. I've only seen it once. I just realized that before this, last time I watched it I saw it in theaters or at the drive-in and that was the last time I watched it. But I consider it my favorite Pixar. I do that with all my favorite movies. I'm like I'll watch it once every 20 years.
Speaker 2:I don't know why it's easy to do that when you don't have kids, because that's why I've seen it a billion times. Yeah, that's true, anytime.
Speaker 1:A pixar movie comes out. I feel bad because you're probably watching it for the next hell yeah. No, I don't mind, I love pixar, I don't know well, speaking of pixar, what's your favorite favorite pixar? Yeah, uh, well. Or if you want to give me like a top three, yeah, I don't know. I feel like ever since, like none of their movies since Soul has been like a banger. I liked Red, but you know, compared to like WALL-E or like Turning Red, the one where she turns into a panda?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that one's good the world almost burned down and was Baymax.
Speaker 1:No, that's Big Hero 6. That's not Pixar.
Speaker 2:That's not Pixar, that's Disney Studios or something Gotcha, I don't know.
Speaker 1:There's too many series. They're both starting to look the same.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they look great.
Speaker 1:Disney and Pixar. They're starting to do the same type of animation.
Speaker 2:I'm like what's the difference now at this point?
Speaker 1:except there's this usually better writing in Pixar movies. Yeah, I can't even remember which movie is a Pixar movie and which one isn't yeah, all the Toy Stories, the cars, the two universe, the Monster Incorporated movies, those are kind of cool. The two Incredibles, yeah, those are good. The two Finding Nemo's, and then you got like Coco Luca, oh man. Luca is so good, I haven't seen Luca.
Speaker 2:Coco is too Good dinosaur. There's going to be a second Coco. Onward, onward is fucking amazing.
Speaker 1:I haven't seen Onward. I hear that some pants make you cry, though.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, they do. It's so touching, but it is really good. I would say my top three would be probably the Incredibles and Onward and man, I don't know, maybe Luca, it's just so sweet.
Speaker 1:That's a pretty wild top three, I feel like for Pixar, mine would probably be WALL-E, either Toy Story one or three. Just if I wanted variation, I wouldn't put both of them in there. Um, and then it's probably either Finding Nemo or Monsters Inc. I don't know. Hell yeah, I guess it depends what mood I'm in. If I want to follow Albert Brooks looking for his son, then I definitely want Finding Nemo. I don't know.
Speaker 2:You'd like Onward. It's fucking sweet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I want to watch it. I just, I don't know. I just there was a while where I just never watched any of them until Soul. It's like the new ones just don't look as interesting to me as like I don't know. I mean, I didn't even think soul was like amazing or anything.
Speaker 2:I thought it was good, but the music was cool yeah, it was a fun movie so yeah, up until this point I was afraid of repercussions to suggest the disney movie yeah why? What it's afraid you might hurt me. What do you mean? I love disney movies oh no, I love disney movies and there's even um disney dream light valley, the game for the. I have it on the switch and you can have wally as a buddy. Yeah, it just follows you around and helps oh, that's awesome.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's awesome. He's the nicest guy. He's also kind of a creepo, just a little bit.
Speaker 2:He's a great bachelor, yeah, especially in the beginning.
Speaker 1:Yeah, most organized bachelor. The boy knows how to live alone. I mean the cockroach dude, so cute.
Speaker 2:I love the cockroach. I like how they made him indestructible.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Every time he gets right over it's like, oh no, I'm fine. And then I like that. Whenever he rolls around on him, everybody's like, hmm, and it's great. I love when robots are given human personalities. It's awesome. So Wally Stars or? Is voiced by Ben Burtt. Do you know anything about Ben Burtt? He voices R2-D2. Oh, really, that's cool. He's pretty much just done a ton of Star Wars films.
Speaker 1:He just goes, beep-boop, mm-hmm. He said. He did like 29 years and 10-month tour of duty with Star Wars and he thought, well, at least I don't have to do any more robots. But when Pixar called, I could see this was something more like a Frank Capra romance, with Buster Keaton thrown in and you had the challenge of not only creating the sound of this fantasy world, but even the bigger task of creating principal characters built out of sound. So he didn't want to do any more robots after just like 30 years of doing robot voices for Star Wars.
Speaker 1:That could get tiring and they pulled him back in. He also worked on ET and I feel like that's why Wally kind of sounds like ET sometimes. Oh yeah, my wife who saw it for the first time was like why does he just sound like ET?
Speaker 2:And I was like no, he does sound like ET, ET and I was like no, he does sound like ET. Et is gross. I love ET. So many wrinkles. He's a good guy though he's got his magic finger. Yeah, he knows where that finger is.
Speaker 1:They used to make toys out of it. It's like they all just look like penises, man, all the toys just look like penises, let's see. So I guess the director andrew stanton. He came up with the design of wally at a baseball game because someone gave him a pair of binoculars that looked just like his eyes. Sweet, and he said he couldn't even pay attention in the game because he just kept focusing on these binoculars like a movie out of this.
Speaker 2:binoculars look so cool. Watch your son is on the field.
Speaker 1:No, I have to look at these goggles or binoculars, and I guess the original title for the movie was Trash Planet. Yeah, that's cool. It also had, like a much different plot.
Speaker 2:Oh, was it the one where it's, like the tale, as old as time. Beautiful sexy robot comes to Earth and falls in love with a trash monster.
Speaker 1:It was about a family of aliens going on a summer vacation on a planet and it's supposed to be a resort and there's this tiny little robot that drives them nuts.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1:I'd watch that. That's what it was. It's like I'm trying to think. I feel like that's mean, I don't know. I just think that Wally's too nice of a guy.
Speaker 2:Do you think Wally ever like Put something inside Of his compactor that really shouldn't Be in there, like a?
Speaker 1:gun, yeah, and just Shoots at him yeah. Like oh god, that's gonna be some Massive reflux, I think.
Speaker 2:Or he just gets like Gets into a patch of dildos.
Speaker 1:Yes, this feels good.
Speaker 2:Like a can of hairspray Just explodes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, man, I think he'd be able to handle it. I mean he's able to, he can handle anything.
Speaker 2:But he's the last one on the planet. What happened? Did he kill the other ones? No, I think they just. Eventually, this is a Highlander situation.
Speaker 1:I guess they just eventually ran out of their I don't know Of the sun. Well, I'm assuming is that there was just like an issue with his programming to where he became smarter than them. So he's like, well, let me make sure I can rebuild myself. So anytime I see another one die, I'm going to take it.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm saying. He needs parts. Cannibalize it. Yes, he needs the parts. Yes, he just sneaks up on it.
Speaker 1:Give me those wheels, and then he eats them and poops them out and your eyes and then builds an entire skyscraper out of them.
Speaker 2:He should have built a monument to himself.
Speaker 1:You know what was the point of making them look like skyscrapers the trash skyscrapers. Maybe he just likes Legos, Was that?
Speaker 2:just Wally's idea. Maybe it's his programming.
Speaker 1:But why would they want it to be? Let's get back in five years to the planet, and then you come back and it's like, well, now all our sky's clear. So they made them look like planets. I don't understand the point of this.
Speaker 2:He's also been there. Maybe he's built other things, because he's been there for hundreds of years doing this.
Speaker 1:Like over like 705 years right. In the movie. It's the 700th year for the five-year anniversary of their journey which is the best.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's probably built like pyramids, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:He's probably really improved the infrastructure of the city. I bet there's a Sphinx out there with his face on it.
Speaker 1:That would be great. So there's a couple of cameos. You got the Pizza Planet truck yeah Shows up, and you also have the finding nemo sea turtles make a cameo oh yeah what really?
Speaker 1:yeah, when let's see in another piece, pixar easter egg, the sea turtles from finding nemo can be seen in the film's animated credit scene. Amusingly, there's also a small cameo from mickey mouse in the form of a silhouette that's been used in several pixar movies. Another credited credit sequence, easter egg that's easy to miss, is an appearance of appearance from the bird from a bug's life. I don't see that yeah, it's just like a sparrow you know, honestly, I haven't seen a bug's life and I want to see ever.
Speaker 2:I want to know this bird's back, like history yeah, why they got a cameo um, oh.
Speaker 1:So I guess in the rich early versions of the script that the, the human characters, were actually just going to be gelatinous blobs. They basically are, and they're practically there, yeah.
Speaker 2:They weren't going to have bones or anything. So little bones.
Speaker 1:Oh, also the voice actor who plays Eve. Elisa Nye is her name. She's not really an actor, she was just an employee working at Pixar. She recorded all of Eve's dialogue just to give the animation team something to work from, While the casting people looked for a more famous actress to take part. However, the producers ended up liking her performance.
Speaker 2:She worked for free, right? Great, we'll use that one. She's salaried, so we don't have to pay her extra. Okay, good, no billing, though in the credits no billing. Well, I mean, I guess she does get some. I don't know, I don't know how all that works.
Speaker 1:Oh, I guess WALL-E began development in 1994. So I guess the initial idea for WALL-E first came in a now iconic lunch meeting between Pixar's top brass John Lasseter, pete Docter, john Rampt and Andrew Stanton ramped in Andrew Stanton In 1994, as Toy Story was nearing completion. The four brainstormed ideas for the studio's next Prologix and Monsters Inc, finding Nemo, bugs, life and WALL-E were all born at this meeting. So that's pretty cool.
Speaker 2:They're all born.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to think which movies did Andrew Stanton do? Because this director? Have you been seeing ads for Three Body Problem I have since I guess the director of this also directed an episode of that, anything about it? But yeah, I mean either. It just seems to be the craziest crap that shows up on my Facebook app with an ad.
Speaker 2:I'm like what the? Hell is this? I can't wait until Fallout the series comes out, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I get nervous about those things.
Speaker 2:Fucking love Fallout.
Speaker 1:It's probably going to be shitty but I'm still going to watch it. So I guess Andrew Stanton did Bugs Life and Finding Nemo. That's why those two cameos were in it Two solid movies. Yeah, so the cast, so part of the cast. You have Ben Burtt as Wally, elisa Knight as Eve, you have Jeff Garland as Captain Fred Willard, our boy as Shelby Fortright as the BNL CEO.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, I fucking love that guy.
Speaker 1:John is voiced by John Ratzenberger. Sigourney Weaver is the ship's computer. Really cool, I did not notice that. It kind of sounded like a speaking spell to me.
Speaker 2:Sigourney Weaver is the ship's computer.
Speaker 1:Hell yeah, really Cool. You didn't notice that voice.
Speaker 2:I did not notice that it kind of sounded like a speaking spell to me.
Speaker 1:Oh, really, that's just. You know our space girl out there Just doing some more space voices. All right, bro, you ready to get into the movie?
Speaker 2:I want to see the sequel to this, when the alien comes aboard the Axiom and destroys it.
Speaker 1:Or maybe he's hitched a ride to planet Earth I want to see the sequel to where Eve and Wally have a baby. You just want to see them have sex.
Speaker 2:Pervert.
Speaker 1:Whatever You're lost, bro, you're jealous, that's it All right. So, approximately 700 years in the future, the Earth is overrun with garbage and devoid of plant and animal life, the consequence of years of environmental degradation and thoughtless consumerism. This is late-stage capitalism. Yeah, essentially, the surviving humans are living on a spaceship called Axiom, after vacating Earth centuries earlier. Axiom is operated by a large corporation called Buy and Large, whose B&L logo appears even on the artificial sun visible from the ship's main concourse. It's pretty dope, though, like I mean B&L, bring them here.
Speaker 2:You think they're supposed to be Walmart? Yeah, I think we already kind of have it. Yeah, I mean B&L, bring them here. Think they're supposed to be Walmart? Yeah, I think we already kind of have it. Yeah, totally Walmart.
Speaker 1:Well then, can I get a freaking chair that just wheels around by hovering?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but it's gonna break. That's true, maybe a.
Speaker 1:Walmart. Yeah, it's gonna break. You'd have to go to Target to get the good one, or just like I don't know good one, or just like like I don't know, just probably. I feel like more more likely it's.
Speaker 2:It's amazon. Now, right, bno is probably amazon, yeah, but they don't really have any big like costco super centers yeah, but I feel like eventually, once, they probably take over yeah, when they take over the rest of the planet? Yeah, they definitely will. It will become a theocracy. The only one religion is Amazon.
Speaker 1:Amazon, amazonia With our god. Jeff Bezos, yeah, and then his disciples. Let's see, we got Elon Musk, god, who else? Joe Rogan?
Speaker 2:I hate this religion already.
Speaker 1:So the original plan was for humans to live in outer space for five years while cleaning robots, wallies prepared Earth for recolonization. However, after 700 years, only one wallie remains. Yes, the movie starts at this point. There can be only one. Yeah, wally spends all his days compacting debris into solid blocks and pooping them out. We see the giant trash skyscrapers. We got a roach. He's the cutest little guy we've ever seen. Wally has so much personality. It's great. It's all in his eyes. Now it makes so much sense that the director was obsessed with these binoculars, because it's all his personality is right here.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I love it whenever he's like trying to adjust so he can see and he just kind of sits there and just if you saw it at home, he's totally a windows machine. Yeah, and eve is Well it's because, whenever he charges up, you have the zoom. Yeah, so good.
Speaker 2:Like Windows 10 booting up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, when we see him ride around, we see a bunch of dead Wallys that are broken down. He replaces parts from them, which is awesome.
Speaker 2:It's kind of dark, but also awesome.
Speaker 1:You just got to remember, he's the only Wally with personality, hopefully, Otherwise it'd be sad. We also see him. He kind of collects interesting artifacts. He got like lighters, hubcaps, light bulbs, Spork, Spork Love it and he's like what the hell and he keeps them in his garage. He sails with a cockroach. His only friend man is he lives in a twinkie.
Speaker 2:Is he like ariel? Like how she's got her little grotto of human things?
Speaker 1:oh, snap oh yeah, oh shit he's a fish.
Speaker 2:Oh no, the their same company's gonna have to sue the same company now.
Speaker 1:So at night he watches hello dolly on vhs and dreams of having a hand to hold. He also. We also see him admiring space, dreaming of who else could be out there into a giant dust storm rolls in, damn dude hello dolly was the the senior play at our in my high school really, I only know. I only know the song that starts at the beginning put on your Sunday clothes.
Speaker 2:This is the only thing I know from Hill or Dolly we won't come back until we kiss a girl with her permission yes, today it was at in the part of the song, or?
Speaker 1:just like a little added part for you so the next day, while he wakes up and running out of battery, we see him charging up with the sun.
Speaker 2:He's all groggy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, when he wakes up, he's like Hungover from a long night of drinking oil or something.
Speaker 2:He puts like some kind of aerosol can in his belly. He just gets high as fuck. Some kind of aerosol can in his belly, he just gets high as fuck yeah.
Speaker 1:That's awesome. Cockroach is like man. You have a problem. We need to talk, yeah man, it's like if I quit doing aerosol cans you can't live in a Twinkie anymore. It's like, all right, man, keep doing it, don't do that to me. So later that day, while compacting, he finds a brawl and a fire extinguisher, and until he finds a lonely plant, not sure what it is, but recognizing that needs soil and carry, he picks it up and puts it in that dirt field.
Speaker 2:Old Jew, which is great. I love it. I love what he puts.
Speaker 1:He puts the brawl on his head and he's like I'm keeping this. Then he gets a fire extinguisher and it's just like it's awesome. I love my favorite is whenever you got that. What's the little like paddle, oh, where you have the ball on the string and then he starts hitting himself in the face paddle ball.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I hated those things because I was broke. Really, you get really into it, you get a good going and then the string is so cheap, it just snaps.
Speaker 1:That's true, and it's like a dot of freaking glue. Yeah yeah, not made to last, exactly so while returning the plant, wally sees a red dot that turns out to be an enormous spaceship landing and it apposes another robot Eve Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator.
Speaker 2:Is that what this is?
Speaker 1:Yes, this is all great, though, because, wally, he just starts freaking out when the thing's coming down.
Speaker 2:Instead of rolling away, he just digs under the ground.
Speaker 1:He has nowhere to go. Like hi, hi, hi, hi. It's such a funny idea, though he's a survivor. And then I also like the bit of the spaceship when it lands, because you think it's going to be a giant thing coming out of it, or a bunch of people Like stairs.
Speaker 1:And then you just have one thing and it looks like, oh, that's a giant robot, I guess. And then that thing pops up and then starts taking out something else. I'm like, okay, so is this a robot? And then another arm comes out and starts pressing buttons and then it opens and it's like, okay, it's another robot.
Speaker 1:and then it's like, oh, okay, it's this kind of weird cylindrical shape. And then she pops out yeah, it does look like the Macintosh. Yeah, it's awesome, though, because I don't know, it's just a funny little bit where you're like, is this ever going to end? And then it's just this tiny little robot, that's it. So we we see her giant ship fly off then, because at first she comes in and she's just very serious and starts scanning the ground. But as soon as the ship flies off, she becomes free, hell yeah, and just kind of flies around and it's beautiful and magic.
Speaker 1:It is very cool.
Speaker 2:Very. The music is amazing yeah.
Speaker 1:I love when they're like this part where she's flying around, and then the second part where it's Wally and her flying around. It's great, she's fast man. Yeah, she's like she rules breaks the sound barrier eve crushes, so wally is immediately smitten and hopes to hold her hand, though. But eve is quick to use her plasma cannon, which can blast a hole through anything almost destroys the room, nearly got shot by her.
Speaker 1:Um, while he's kind of having a rough day at this point because when the ship also got blast off again he has to dig again. Then he tries to make contact with her like three times and get shot at by her, essentially, because she's deadly yeah, it's like she's not messing around. And while while eve is searching, roach comes up to her. She shoots, but he lives through it like always, can't kill me bitch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she likes Roach now because he runs up her and is like, while he makes a noise and then gets shot at again, she scans him and then just leaves.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I've been there. Yeah, I've been scanned and now I'm alone. Yeah, she's deemed me um unimportant yeah um, but when she leaves, he follows.
Speaker 1:Um, he gets ran over. Oh yeah, when he's following her, a few of the little bits is he gets ran over by the carts, which is hilarious, like, ah uh, builds her a sculpture. She doesn't care though and then gets crushed by pipes immediately.
Speaker 1:It's eyes are like little Christmas ornaments and she's like, hmm, this must have been here the whole time. Eve flies around earth looking for vegetation, but becomes distraught upon not finding anything. I don't know what happened to my voice there. That was weird. She gets stuck on a magnet and then blows up some shit because she pissed off. She was so pissed yeah such a great shot, though all of it makes floating.
Speaker 2:It was so dope, all the ships just fall down, yeah, like leg or dominoes and then like they all start exploding. Yeah there's a huge explosion and this leads like.
Speaker 1:Wally's like now would be a good time to approach her. Yeah.
Speaker 2:And.
Speaker 1:Leslie's, like Wally's, like now would be a good time to approach her. Yeah, After she just destroyed giant ships and he kind of it's like a classic nerd bit where he's trying to like slide up next to the girl. It happens in freaking Scott Pilgrim versus the world. Same same bit, Except I guess they got it from Wally yeah.
Speaker 1:She asked for a directive and which leads them to all introduce themselves. And at first she's speaking like a couple different languages. And this is where we get the Molly Eve or Eve. He's like Eva, eva, and then she kind of is laughing at him. And then he's like hey, eva, and then she kind of is laughing at him and then he's like hey, come with me.
Speaker 2:There's a giant dust cloud, but she's like no, I love when she's like directive and then he puts some trash in him.
Speaker 1:And he comes out all wonky.
Speaker 2:So fucking cute.
Speaker 1:Great yeah, dust storm coming at him, Dust storm comes at him and he takes her back to his garage.
Speaker 2:I want to go back to my place.
Speaker 1:He's like yeah, you'll be safe here, Nothing to worry about in my garage. I'm just a harmless old robot. So he takes her back to the garage where he shows her his collection of human artifacts. He shows her his stuff and she is able to figure out what most of it does. Like you have the light bulb, he holds, it does nothing. She grabs it, lights up and he's like wait a second what you have, the Rubik's Cube, and he turns around for one second and she turns back and she solved it.
Speaker 1:You have the bubble wrap that she does in five seconds. Hell yeah, uh. But then he puts on hello dolly. They both kind of dance a little bit until he goes a little too hard.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she just starts jumping and then he weighs like a ton wait a second spin.
Speaker 1:Then she starts spinning and knocks him into the not a great side of the wall. But whenever they kind of dance he breaks his eyes while doing it and then he goes to fix it. She lights up a lighter. Which kind of sets?
Speaker 2:the mood Lights up a cigarette, it's like you don't want any of this Wally Directive.
Speaker 1:But yeah. So it's kind of like he's falling even more in love with her, because it's kind of like candlelight look to her and then he goes to try to hold her hand and she completely pulls it away. Wow, that's beautiful, you sound just like her. So she's still resisting holding his hand. However, she shows her, he shows her the plant he found. This activated what is my voice doing.
Speaker 1:I'm so tired. Still, I pretty much just woke up before you got here. This activates her prime directive. She takes the plant into a special containment capsule within her body, sends a signal to her mothership and then goes into hibernation mode.
Speaker 2:This is what happens whenever you give your significant other a really terrible gift.
Speaker 1:He's like we will not talk for weeks.
Speaker 2:This is exactly what she wanted, and now she's through.
Speaker 1:You just walk in. She's laying in bed. It's like are you okay? Your gift sucked. I'm in hibernation mode now. No, but it's really sad because Wally's so sad and he's like Eva. He's alone again and he's all confused. So Wally tries to make her safe and comfortable. He shelters her from thunderstorms, that's so funny. Takes an umbrella, gets shocked by lightning. Grabs another umbrella, immediately gets shocked by lightning. It's like come on, thunderstorm. This is a little ridiculous.
Speaker 2:It's so romantic too. He's just like taking her on little boat rides through the oil spills.
Speaker 1:Takes her to a park where he can watch the sunset next to her.
Speaker 2:Tries holding her hand, but his hand gets stuck.
Speaker 1:Forcefully holds her hand. It's like you know what Her sleeping is. Not consent, Wally. Just saying You've been watching too much porn, Wally.
Speaker 2:He just he just knows what he wants and he's been able to take what he wants for hundreds of years.
Speaker 1:Yes, so several days later, the mothership returns and collects Eve. Wally hitches a ride on the ship, though it's this great sequence. Then we get this great sequence through space, where he charges up at the sun and immediately charges them up.
Speaker 2:He's like nyeh he's closer to the sun, I guess, and then he puts his hand through Neptune's ring.
Speaker 1:I'm assuming it was Neptune.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's some kind of space dust.
Speaker 1:But the ship eventually returns to the Axiom, several light years away from Earth. It's essentially just a giant cruise ship in space.
Speaker 2:It looks great I thought there should have been more rock and roll music playing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know. Did it remind you of this part, reminds you of what's the movie that we did? It's like our fifth episode, corbin Corbin.
Speaker 2:Dallas it does yeah.
Speaker 1:The Fifth Element.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the Fifth Element when they go to the hotel.
Speaker 1:Yeah, looks just like it kind of a little bit. What was that called Paradise? Something Foster in?
Speaker 2:Paradise yeah.
Speaker 1:How could we forget that we only had to set it five minutes? Where is Chris Tucker in this movie? Right, he would have been a great Wally. He should have been Fred Willard's character. He could have been one of the other robots, willard's character or it could have been one of the other robots yeah, wally, baby Wally.
Speaker 1:It should have been a radio. There should have been a radio on deck. That should have been him. That would have been perfect. So Eevee I keep wanting to say Eevee, because freaking Pokemon, eve and Wally, are examined in the landing bay. We meet Moe. Yeah, moe's the coolest. I love Moe. He's my favorite character.
Speaker 2:I'm not lying. He's so OCD about the movie. He is my favorite character. He's hilarious.
Speaker 1:He wants to clean. Wally so bad. Eve is still in hibernation mode and is taken to the ship's commander, gopher. Wally pursues her, followed by Moe. He's just a cleaning robot. If you're just listening, you've never seen it. And he's great. He's got this little thing, and so it looks like his hands are just like holding this bar thing, and so there's times where he'll like hit the ground with it because he's like, and then he wheels around I don't know, it's just so. He's just such a cute little robot. I don't know.
Speaker 2:It's almost like a little grinder or something.
Speaker 1:Yeah it looks like a grinder. Yeah, I just love later when him and Wally shake hands with his hands. It's so cool On the way Wally sees humans for the first time. They're obese and largely unable to move on their own. They are carted around the axiom in hover chairs with video screens that allow them to communicate with one another. See a variety of advertisements for drinkable food products.
Speaker 2:Cupcake in a cup.
Speaker 1:I literally had an insurer right before doing this podcast, which is drinkable food essentially. I don't know man. Pretty cool though I like these hover chairs, I know I don't really like it.
Speaker 1:I don't like the screens. I do not like the way those screens look. I don't want to see through my television, oh okay. And also I don't like the fact that anyone can just kind of communicate with you while you're in the chair. There's got to be like a privacy setting. I would just be like in call. They'd immediately message back. I know you're not doing anything, you're in your chair anything. You're in your chair, answer your phone. Nobody does anything. This place sounds like a nightmare to me.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's pretty awful and also it could have been cool at first, you know, before they lost all their bones, yeah I just feel like there's always gonna people, there's always gonna be people that aren't gonna be lazy, though.
Speaker 1:So I don't think everybody would have been this big. I get that. It's just a relative like uh, pixar way of like hey, everybody's the same because we all can't be lazy like this, but there'd at least be like one person be like just working out, just like what golly, this is a real mess right here, baby, but the drinkable food products.
Speaker 1:if it tastes good I'd totally go for that like. If you couldn't make a drink that tasted like a cheeseburger, I'd drink it. It's probably been done, you know. But like actually tastes like a cheeseburger, not like when you buy a potato Cheeseburger, flavored potato chips and tasty like that just tastes like a salty cheeseburger. They're like a salty chip that almost thought about being a cheeseburger. So when Wally accidentally knocks one of the humans, john, off his hover chair, wally helps the man back into the chair and introduces himself. Confused and grateful John introduces himself in return. Oh, I also forgot to say everybody rides. So even the robots follow these little lines on the ground, that kind of span off Like the traffic lanes, yeah. So when John gets knocked off the chair he just kind of lands and everybody's about to run into him and then more lines come off and then they can kind of go around him. Very efficient. It's really cool. I was like man, they thought of everything here.
Speaker 2:I thought it was cool too when he disrupts John.
Speaker 1:it's like the first time John has ever not looked at a screen.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he has seen anything at all. It was like he's never looked out the window and never just stopped to smell the roses.
Speaker 1:It's like no one's ever just been, like, oh, my eyes kind of hurt. Could you just turn off the screen for me and then looked out into the like the fact that they're in this giant, beautiful, like resort area. They didn't even know they had pools. What are you talking about? They had to be kids with some sort of attention like weird attention span, where they're like, oh there's water, let me jump. But unless the whole point of like the drinkable food is the fact to hurry up and get everybody fat so they can all just sit in their chairs and not be combative or anything, I don't know.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, it's kind of like To keep them, pacify them.
Speaker 1:Yeah, pacify them, keep them safe. That's what it kind of seems like maybe a little later in the film.
Speaker 2:Stop them from asking any questions. Yeah.
Speaker 1:So Wally, trying to get to Eve on a train thing, knocks Mary, a woman, out of her hover chair, who's like in a comatose state because you know, everybody in those chairs are like she didn't even know they had a pool. Then he is finally with Eve because he's essentially being like, hey, move out of my way so I can get next to her. So Wally rides with Evie to the chambers of the captain, who's voiced by Jeff Garland. I love when, right before he goes into the captain quarters, there's a little robot and Wally waves and is like and then the yeah, the receptionist robot, yeah, and then the robot looks at his own hand and is like, holy shit, wait, what does that mean? Why did I do that? Which we'll get the conclusion a little later it's hilarious.
Speaker 1:So when we eventually meet the captain, we realize that he's kind of catered to, just like the rest of the humans on the thing. So we also briefly meet Otto, the ship's autopilot. His eyes flash A113 just for a brief second, which we'll find out what that means later. Okay, the captain is really excited to make morning announcements. This is where we get the great line. It's our 700th anniversary from the five-year mission. I also love that. It's like 1230, and he's like wait a second, it's 1230. Why didn't you wake me up to do morning announcements? It's the only thing I get to do.
Speaker 1:And then so he turns the clock back to whenever it's morning time and it's like bro, you've messed everything up the whole day.
Speaker 1:Nobody cares, yeah, no one even realized it. So the captain is confused, but excited about operation uh, recolonize, which is triggered by the eve's find uh, the plants. Yeah, um, when the captain reactivates Eve and orders her to produce the plant, it is missing. The captain orders Eve and Wally to be taken for repairs but after they've left, decides to educate himself about Earth. It's like define Earth, she says, and it talks about land and seas. Define seas? Hell, yeah, dude, he's thirsty for knowledge. And then, when Wally and Eve are leaving the Captain's Deck, they come out in the receptionist robot.
Speaker 2:It's like really fast with his hand, Like wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.
Speaker 1:Love this new thing. It's like this. It's so funny and great. So in the repair bay we see a bunch of silly robots. You have like the paint robot that's just spreading paint everywhere.
Speaker 2:All the defective robots? Yeah, like the makeup robots that just beat the shit out of everyone.
Speaker 1:And then you have the boxing robot. You're just like it's this. And then you have that one tennis robot.
Speaker 2:That is just constantly hitting tennis balls at this other robot and hitting it in the head.
Speaker 1:But Wally mistakenly thinks Eve is being harmed by the repair crew and uses her plasma cannon to save her, inadvertently releasing other robots who had been taken in for service. Eve is getting hell, pissed off.
Speaker 1:Because she's just in a spa all day over there and he's thinking she's dying. It's a classic, um, it's a classic awesome powers bit, you know, in the awesome powers movies, where they always do like a section of each of those movies. Where he's behind, they're in like a tent and then you have the bad guys looking at him and it's always like you have someone, looks like someone's putting their hand up his butt and stuff.
Speaker 1:That's so funny. So during the breakout, security robots take photos of them. The ship's computer announces to humans that Eve and Wally are all renegade robots. These dope shots yeah, she's holding things. You have angry. Eve takes Wally to an escape pod to send him back to Earth. Wally is still wanting to hold her hand, though he just keeps looking at his hand. It's like Wally man, you got to really read the room here. Wally only wants to go back if she goes. I love whenever he gets in the ship and he starts patting on the head.
Speaker 2:Yeah come on, let's go, let's go. What are we?
Speaker 1:waiting for? Come sit next to me, please, before she can put him in the pod. They see Gopher putting the plant in the escape pod. After Gopher leaves, wally goes to rescue the plant but is blasted into space. Before the pod self-destructs, wally uses the emergency escape hatch and a fire extinguisher to exit the pod with the plant. He was like oh, no, um, but then like sees him out with the fire extinguisher kind of floating around, just flying around like crazy yeah, a joyous eve.
Speaker 1:Plays slash dances in space with wally yeah, that's a cool scene. Even gives him an appreciative electric kiss. So fucking cute it's adorable yeah it's hilarious's hilarious.
Speaker 2:Kind of sexy and great and amazing. Could you sell, wally?
Speaker 1:And love exists. And then we see Mary and John, mary's, just looking out into space, like what the heck this has? Been out here and then sees Evie and Wally, he's like whoa. And then she goes and like bumps on John and it's like hey. And then she goes and like bumps on John and is like hey, look at this. Then Mary and John accidentally touch hands and now it's like, it's like ooh yo let's lose some weight and make some babies.
Speaker 2:Let's go play in a pool. It's probably more like let's eat cupcake in a cup. They're like let's go get to our reproductive machines and let them jerk us off, oh God.
Speaker 1:But they start liking each other, mary and John. We see the captain is still learning about Earth. It's like you can farm and grow pizza, yes. And then he asks one last thing define dancing. And then, while Wally and Evie are out flying around, sigourney Weaver's just telling us defining dancing and why you see them dance around to music.
Speaker 1:It's great, I love it, this movie very pretty rules then we see mary and john hanging out by a pool. So, using the garbage shoe, eve and wally sneak into the captain's cabin to give him the plant. He looks into eve's memory and to see how Earth is now and sees no blue skies and he's like where is everything this?
Speaker 2:isn't Earth. This sucks, bro. The planet of the apes. What did we do?
Speaker 1:God damn it. Then Eve sees her memories of Wally while she was in the hibernation. Now she's in love.
Speaker 2:Captain finds Pornhub on the internet and we don't see him for a while. He's just like wait a second Earth.
Speaker 1:Meh, we'll skip it. Explain pornography, bro. There's going to be so much Axiom porn when we get back to Earth.
Speaker 2:There's just going to be so much about it.
Speaker 1:The captain takes care of the plant and realizes he has to take care of the planet too, because he takes the plant, put some water in it and then he's like he's looking at earth like we have to do this to our planet. Gotta save the planet and this is what we start in planet start getting our.
Speaker 1:hey, be nice to the earth. Message of the movie the power is yours. But then Otto shows up and reveals he was the one who stole the plant earlier. It has no intentions of allowing a return to earth because of centuries old directive that was issued when the earth was believed to be permanently uninhabitable. The captain pleads his case to the auto, but the auto has orders. The captain says he doesn't want to survive, I want to live.
Speaker 2:I want to live, damn it.
Speaker 1:Auto calls for Gopher to take the plant. It's like fuck you, captain. It throws the plant into the garbage chute, but Wally catches it. I also love so whenever we see the directive like the new A113 directive Fred Willer gives he's like we're fucked. It's over. We screwed up. It's like what happened, Like was it just riots. I don't like. They're just like screw it, we're done, they figured out.
Speaker 2:This is like Trash robots are not going to be able to do this in five years.
Speaker 1:This ain't happening. It's going to take longer than that.
Speaker 1:We're out. We have another ship where it's actually going to be better than this ship. But Otto blasts Wally, eve and the plant back down the garbage chute and confines the captain to his cabin W, wally and Eve are being shot into space with the rest of the trash and Wally is badly damaged by auto shock. It's real sad because the rest of this movie, up until the very end, wally is decommissioned at this point. Oh, it sucks for Wally. But while they're being almost sucked into space, luckily Mo finds Wally and gets stuck in the space chute doors and allows them to not get sucked into space. We see Wally's computer chip is completely destroyed and he may die. Wally and Moe, they kind of shake hands for a second.
Speaker 2:It's so cute Like he's on his deathbed.
Speaker 1:It's like Wally Moe. Yeah, moe Eve can't find a proper chip though. Yeah, she goes digging through all the trash. Oh boy, it looks like he's about to get out of it. Um, but wally shows her the only way to get help is to get to earth, because he's showing her the plant. He's like directive and she's like no, I can't do this. And he's like bitch I said directive get me to earth, and she's. Oh, don't call me bitch Wally.
Speaker 2:It's insensitive yeah.
Speaker 1:They are making their way to the captain quarters and the rogue robots come to help them while they're being chased by police. They even like shit out of the police. And they're even like kind of humming the put on your Sunday clothes that Wally plays and then he starts playing it and they're all like let's go.
Speaker 2:Revolution.
Speaker 1:So meanwhile, the captain has figured out how to hack into the ship's communication system and tells Evie and Wally to head to the ship's central deck, where a special machine will return the ship to earth when the plant is placed inside it. Yeah, he's also fighting auto yeah, and like auto has purposely turned his own like head wheel to the right so that the ship is on its side.
Speaker 1:Oh, and all the stuff. They're kind of following it everybody um. With the helps of the liberated robots, Wally and Eve make it to the central deck where the special machine has risen from the platform. We see the boxing robot really go to town on some police robots.
Speaker 2:You know what that kind of reminds me of All these robots. Did you ever see Astro Boy?
Speaker 1:No, I've never seen Astro Boy, it's really good.
Speaker 2:They have this place where they throw all the defective robots right. And then you've got these three robots that are like the robot liberation front, the RLF. Yeah, they're really funny, but I don't know. That's a good movie too.
Speaker 1:Also kind of reminds me of— Nicolas Cage, isn't it?
Speaker 2:Oh really Hell yeah, he's Astro Boy's dad.
Speaker 1:Man. We went to go watch Late Night with the Devil and there's like two Nicolas Cage horror movies coming out this year and it's great and they also have a. I saw a trailer for a movie where you it's the point of view of like a Jason type character and you're just kind of following him as he walks through woods and kills teenagers. I guess Is he humming the same song as Wally.
Speaker 1:Yes, stab, stab, stab, that would be pretty dope. We also see the captain fighting Otto and he kills Gopher Rip. When the machine rises, all the humans are escorted to the plant machine. It's great. They're just like sleeping, just sitting there, but like littleorted to the plant machine. It's great, they're just like sleeping, just sitting there, but little tubes fly over their heads. It's great. Otto tries to force the machine back into the platform but is prevented by Wally who wedges himself between the floor and the machine being crushed. Goddamn Wally. And then the captain manages to stand up on his own and shuts off Otto.
Speaker 2:We get the 2001 Space Odyssey song. Manages to stand up on his own and shuts off Otto. It's an epic moment. The 2001 Space Odyssey song plays I love that shit.
Speaker 1:Eve puts the plant in the special machine found by Mo. Let's go, Mo and everyone gets super stoned. Smoking a bowl and Axiom is whisked back to Earth. What are we doing again? It's like Lightspeed. It's great we're going to save the planet. Yeah, bro. So Wally has been nearly completely destroyed. By keeping Otto from collapsing the platform Once they reach Earth, Eve rushes Wally back to his garage and repairs him. We also see Roach was waiting in the same spot. Roach is having a party. Yeah, it's like having a party.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like a house party.
Speaker 1:You just see like they've just been having, like crazy cockroach orgies and stuff.
Speaker 2:Oh yes.
Speaker 1:It's like damn bro.
Speaker 2:The other roaches will eat their own eggs and wings to keep from starving to death.
Speaker 1:Really.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I had a teacher who kept one in a jar for like a year Just to see what it would do. Just to see what it would do while it's starving to death.
Speaker 1:It's morbid now that I think about it. Jesus Christ, dude, I would have been so bummed out, especially if I saw Wally then went to his classroom and be like I'm going to liberate you.
Speaker 2:Just blast the fuck out of him with Eve's gun. Yeah.
Speaker 1:So once Wally is repaired, wally doesn't recognize her and begins to compact garbage. Eve is super sad, holds Wally's hands and gives him an electric kiss again Dang boner time. As soon as she went up and got really close to him, I was like, oh crap. This is the part of the Pixar movie where I start to tear up.
Speaker 1:He doesn't remember I was like oh no, remember the robots don. Oh no, Remember the robots, don't cry, jesse. But this, the little electric shock, properly reboots Wally and his eyes start twitching and then he's back to normal. The captain teaches the other humans how to nurture the plants and heal the planet.
Speaker 2:He's like we're going to grow pizza plants.
Speaker 1:Yes, vegetable and pizza plants.
Speaker 2:I like where your head's at. John, yeah, or captain.
Speaker 1:But then before the movie ends we get like this long shot or this camera pan where we realize it's going to be much easier for them to grow and rebuild the city because just outside the city plants have already begun to flourish. And the movie ends and during the credits we see them rebuilding the planet essentially back to normal. And I like how, whenever you see the credits and like at first it starts off as caveman paintings and then gets fancier and fancier, as you go oh cool as they're kind of rebuilding society.
Speaker 1:Oh nice, I didn't recognize that. And then that's the end of the movie.
Speaker 2:Fucking awesome movie. I love this movie so much.
Speaker 1:It's great, it's just like a little Pixar movie so happy. They're just filled with joy.
Speaker 2:I know it's amazing All the cute little robots, mo I love Mo Mo rules.
Speaker 1:He's the best. Apparently, they have another movie called I think it's like a short called Burn E.
Speaker 2:I've never seen it. I need to go through and watch all these Pixar shorts. I've seen a lot of the shorts, but I don't think I've seen that one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, man, it's just so. What is it about the movie that you like so much? What makes this, what makes wally better than other pixar movies? I think because he's.
Speaker 2:He doesn't really have a big vocabulary and he the only way he can kind of show emotion is like through his eyes.
Speaker 1:His eyes. Yeah, and the way he twitches them. But I think he's.
Speaker 2:It's just so cool how you can see all this personality he has, even though he doesn't say shit hardly, yeah, and it's very impressive that how little dialogue there really is.
Speaker 1:I mean, usually it's just robots just saying their names.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but it's still good. You still understand what's going on. It's really just adorable. Yeah, and the director's it's like love supersedes all language and I love that.
Speaker 1:the directors, I guess was just while working on this anytime they took a lunch they would watch silent movies, so they could incorporate it into this movie. So it would be, you know, oh cool, how watch silent movies to kind of. So they could incorporate it into this movie.
Speaker 2:so it'd be, you know they'd be like how did silent movies, how did it? Keep our attention and stuff through the years they like they do something, and then the words pop up and then they do something else. Do you think wally ever had any other vhs's? Do you think hello dolly was like his favorite?
Speaker 1:I think that's the only one he had. Honestly, maybe it's the only one he found and he's like, oh, there is no other one, this is the only one.
Speaker 2:This is the only movie. This is the only movie anybody's ever watched.
Speaker 1:Alright, so we're going to move on to our categories. The first category is the good, the bad, the ugly, the fine. It's where we talk about the good of the movie, Something we like. The bad, Something we didn't like. The ugly, Something that didn't age well. The fine, Something that did age well. For me it's like. The good is like. I kind of like the lack of dialogue and the similarities to silent films, and it's just the music and the like.
Speaker 2:Grand vistas of the scene.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2:It kind of gives you, tells you everything you need to know, sometimes yeah, which then led to my bad the scene exactly. Gives you, tells you like everything you need to know, sometimes yeah which then led to my bad um.
Speaker 1:Disney plus streaming app. Look, didn't look that great on my tv. It just whatever, especially anytime it panned into the sky. You can kind of see it may just be like it could, maybe it's my tv. It's not good enough for hdr, or whatever I don't know, I don't have, I didn't. I don't always have this trouble. I don't have this trouble when I use my physical media, so it must just be streaming. What do you mean? Like books?
Speaker 2:Well, no, like when I put it, when I put it in my Blu-rays it just looks a lot better when you put a book in a Blu-ray and it plays the book movie, the movie.
Speaker 1:To me, that'd be legit. What do you got for bad?
Speaker 2:You got anything, not really, man it's just there's nothing really bad about it and it's hard to find something like that in these types of movies. We kind of picked the best Pixar movies.
Speaker 1:It's hard to find bad stuff, so the ugly. I just put how annoying people are anytime a new piece of technology comes out and they say we're just heading to wally town. That's what didn't age well for this movie for me.
Speaker 2:People just annoy me with it people like and they're like, just basically our parents anyone who doesn't understand what's because you know you got the new apple vision and you saw people.
Speaker 1:They showed people, uh, like on a train using it and I'm like I don't know, man, just seem like what's the difference between a laptop and something you put on your eyes?
Speaker 2:except like it just looks a little sillier right now I mean, eventually it won't look as silly, I don't know you got somebody with with the Vision Pro thing. He's like air jerking somebody off.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know, that was the only thing that I thought. Maybe didn't age. Well, I don't know, maybe the trash sucks.
Speaker 2:Trash sucks, let's not cover the planet with garbage.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let's figure that out. I am down with eating human flesh. Yeah, okay If it comes to that, so I will put that as also not aging well. If it comes if, like, a year from now, you get arrested and it's like Jason had human meat in his house, it's like, ah crazy, all right. And then we have the Find Something that aged well, I put Pixar.
Speaker 2:Pixar's killing it.
Speaker 1:They always crush Disgreat movies.
Speaker 2:I also like dystopia movies. I love that whole feel. That's why I like Fallout so much. This movie kind of reminds me of Fallout in some ways.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I love post-apocalyptic worlds. I guess Post-eucalyptus, Post-eucalyptus worlds.
Speaker 2:Planets overrun by koalas.
Speaker 1:Yeah, all right, everybody's got to clap. So we're going to go to our next category, called double feature. It's where we recommend a movie alongside this movie, and I picked Wall-, I picked Wall-E.
Speaker 2:I picked ET. Hell yeah, I was never really a fan of ET. Wow, that's a bad take, but Bad take by Jason. Now that you're talking about like Onward, I kind of want to see Onward again.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you really-ward. I want to see onward again. Yeah, you need to re-watch ET, bro. What's wrong with you, even as a kid man.
Speaker 2:I never got into it. You're off the pod.
Speaker 1:You're off the podcast.
Speaker 2:I did go on the ride at Universal Studios, Dude I love that ride.
Speaker 1:You see all the little miniature stuff. Yes, it's great because at first it's like regular ET and it's a little silly, and then the acid that they put inside your veins halfway through kicks in, just tripping balls, and then you're on a whole other planet.
Speaker 1:It's so weird. I don't know. I love that ride. I know when I got on it, people were like what is this shit? This looks dumb. And then, I know, when I got on it, people were like what is this shit? This looks dumb. And then, I don't know, as it kept going, I was like this rules, what are we talking?
Speaker 2:about. That's kind of how I felt about the Jaws ride. Yeah, it was just so.
Speaker 1:Uh, janky, I've never seen the Jaws ride. Cause it's not there, cause they put the stupid Fast and Furious ride there and I'll yell about it forever.
Speaker 2:It was just so bad, it was fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It's kind of like how they should probably replace the dinosaurs with the yokel jaws.
