WALL-E is a great movie?

Right now at the Internet Movie Data Base (IMBD) this new film..WALL-E is being rated as one of the top 20 all time films.
My view of this film is....
.Wall-e is "disturbing." It ends in a disturbing way.
... It was meant to be, and this is the genius of it. On many levels, it is very disturbing. Not just the idea that there is garbage piled up here on earth. The humans are depicted in a disturbing way Moreover, we also see that the values and ideas of those humans are very disturbing.
..It is my opinion, (just mine) that the Disney Corp..did not know the true meaning of this film when they bought Pixar and agreed to let this one go forward. It is not the kind of message that Disney would ever send out, yet there it is.
,,This one is really meant to let you think on a much deeper level, and judging by reviews, it works.
..WALL-E is bitter sweet, but a winner with a multi layered view of humanity as seen through the eyes of two robots. See this, whenever you can. Even if it is a year from now on CD it is worth your time. But I honestly do not think it is a kids movie, other than the fact that kids will like it too.

Oh, one more thing. It is in a strange way, a warning to us all.
.. In a loving way. And I do think that it going to win the award for "Best Picture" It is time an animated film won, and this one will win.



Here is the link for you to see for yourself. What do you think?
