My favourite eco-celebrity: WALL-E
Seriously. How could I have forgotten WALL-E in yesterdays trip down memory lane? He’s my favourite of them all! He’s got a lot of winning things on his side — namely, he’s a robot. Robots are an automatic win with me, for future reference.
For those of you who did not see the 2008 Pixar film, WALL-E is the story of a robot (named WALL-E, of course) who is designed to clean up a waste-covered Earth far in the future. He eventually falls in love with another robot named EVE, and follows her into outer space on an adventure that changes the destiny of both his kind and humanity.
Apart from the super adorable characters and hilarious moments, I really loved that this movie had a moral without being at all preachy — it wasn’t in your face like some other kid-targeted movies that shall remain nameless… *cough* Happy Feet *cough cough* Spy Kids *choke*
While the story’s major theme is about irrational love defeats life’s programming, its eco themes are unmistakable. I commend the film for speaking to people of all ages and backgrounds about some of the more serious environmental issues such as pollution and the destruction of wildlife habitats.
If you haven’t had a chance to check out this fantastic movie, I highly recommend you do so!
