I guess Wall-E gets it, but the producers don't. What a sad realization, but another good lesson to think about...and keep thinking about. Thanks for sharing your experience, Tao OUCH! I guess Wall-E gets it, but the producers don’t. What a sad realization, but another good lesson to think about…and keep thinking about.

Every child who bought a ticket for the movie was given a shrink-wrapped plastic digital watch. We had two watches amongst four of us. They were broken by the time we got home from the movies (about 15 minutes). They were landfill. It was almost too ironic to believe.

Imagine fighting over the a plant while ignoring piles of other stuff laying around. If only we could re-focus our priorities now, <i>before</i> there's only one plant left on the planet. If only we would overwhelmingly choose giant redwood trees over Gap clothes. At least it proposes that eventually we will. Wall-E is a brilliant film.
