"I, Mobot"
Tomorrow marks the opening of one of my most anticipated summer films, Wall-E. Reviews are finally in, and they are astounding, only aiding this anticipation. Some Metacritic-made-easy quotes: NYT: The first 40 minutes or so of Wall-E -- in which barely any dialogue is spoken, and almost no human figures appear on screen -- is a cinematic poem of such wit and beauty that its darker implications may take a while to sink in. Voice: A film that's both breathtakingly majestic and heartbreakingly intimate. But Radar Online brought a different take than any of the reviews (so far, at least. maybe this will catch on).. Take Wall-E, the new movie about an ostensibly male robot's romance with an ostensibly female visitor robot. Seems hetero enough, sure. Yet, on a closer inspection, Wall-E's story of overcoming isolation and social awkwardness in a new, fast-moving cosmopolitan world seems like a classic coming-out tale. Radar celebrate's Wall-E's coming out with a trip down homo-robot memory lane. Check it. Comments
