Admist all the glitz and glamor that was Epcot's 25th Monday, this snuck under the radar. It's the new WALL*E theatrical trailer, which hit the internet Monday, Oct. 1.

Pretty funny exchange with the lamp and WALL*E during the "Pixar" animation.

Oh my....I can't believe they are passing that off as the first official trailer....what? an added 15-20 seconds?

I was pretty excited though...his expressions are amazing...the Pixar logo intro was great...

I was just dissapointed when it turned back into the teaser.

Oh yeah, I immediately thought of that -- the new theatrical trailer is more of an extended teaser, which basically a trailer is nowadays.

Still, it looks pretty cool and I liked the new Pixar slate.

Watching the trailer for this movie gives me the chills. I'll take as much Wall-E as I can get right now, I can't wait to see it! I've always loved Pixar and think they do good work, but I feel like this is going to be their best film yet.

Something different?

I'm not seeing what everyone is describing. The only thing I pull up is the original teaser with the "lunch" dialogue at the beginning. Am I looking in the wrong place? :shrug:

Mark me down as skeptical. Since seeing the first illustrations for the film, I just am not into this. Thinking in terms of a business decision, I think this could be the first Pixar film that doesn't knock it out of the park.

Granted, everything they've done has generated enormous amounts of revenue... I'm failing to see how this will appeal to a broad audience... let alone and international audience.

I also am failing to see how it will work in terms of synergy and the parks. They'd have to incorporate an attraction into Tomorrowland or World Showcase if they are going by theme. If it were to go into DHS, I couldn't see any decent fit.

Time will tell, and I will for sure go to watch it in theaters... but I'm skeptical of this decision.

I think the main thing about this film is that the trailers don't reveal much at all about the plot. So it's a big mystery to us all.

I'm sure the Disney-Pixar film would do great. As terms of incorporating it into the park, I don't think it'll be much of a problem. Look at Ratatouille. It hasn't been incoporated (as of yet) into the parks except for the occasional character appearance. This film would work great in Tomorrowland, Innoventions at Epcot (or any part of Future World for that matter), or even the Studios.

I personally can't wait to find out more about this film. :)

I've actually been thinking the complete opposite this whole time. First of all, because much of the first half of the film will have no dialogue at all - so you don't even have to understand English to get it. Also, the topic matter (Earth is so polluted that humans need to leave while it gets cleaned up) should be pretty meaningful to everyone.

How much of this movie is not going to have any dialogue?

Only the first opening minutes or much longer?

In my opinion, this could seriously hurt the movie's appeal.

Ew. I think it would be weird and annoying if a lot of the movie is without dialogue.

Are they talking about everyone not talking, or just Wall*E? Because if it's just Wall*E not talking for a lot of it, then that's fine...
 
I'm hoping that most of the movie is without dialogue. It would almost be considered ground-breaking if it did well and had little to no dialogue (It wouldn't exactly be ground breaking considering that films have already gone through the silent stage :p )

Look at R2-D2, people love him, kids love him and he has never said a word. I'd go see an R2-D2 only movie...

From Wikipedia regarding the dialogue: "There is little traditional dialogue in the film; Stanton joked, "I’m basically making R2-D2: The Movie", in reference to Burtt's work on Star Wars. To create dialogue, Burtt took various mechanical sounds, and combined them to resemble dialogue.[4] For a character named AUTO, Burtt used old Maritime military sounds to express the character's emotions.[5] Jeff Garlin is voicing a Captain, who is the only animated character who speaks.[7] Fred Willard will have a live action role as the CEO of Buy and Large.[8] John Ratzenberger is not confirmed to have a part. If he does not appear, WALL-E will be the first Pixar film to not feature his voice.[9] Producer John Lasseter said about the film's lack of dialogue that "the art of animation is about what the character does, not what it says. It all depends on how you tell the story, whether it has a lot of dialogue or not."[10]"

To me, this sounds pretty amazing. And very cool that Lasseter trusts his story and characters enough that dialogue is not as neccessary. I think it's going to be different than any movie out there. In a good way.

I don't know. Judging from this description, it might be a hard movie to sell.

How can we have an entire movie without dialogue. Unless, the movie is extremely short.

No one ever said that a movie needs dialogue to be good. As long as the story is good and that story is conveyed to the audience, dialogue is just a detail. I think the fact that the movie has no dialogue has a lot of people curious and wanting to see it, in fact. At least it's that way for me.

I just read on this Pixar blog that the theatrical trailer for Wall-E could be attached to National Treasure: Book of Secrets (opening on the 21st). If that's true, then that is really exciting and another good reason for me to go see NT.
