Robot Love, FX Houses, and Cats

Wed Jul 2, 2008, 11:22 PM
I never thought that my first journal in over a year(my last entry on my alt account dates 2006) would begin with a movie review. As a matter of fact, I NEVER write reviews. But after seeing Pixar's latest film, which left me mesmerized, I just felt I had to share with all you watchers my experience with WALL-E, definitely among of the most moving, romantic, "feel-good" movies in animation history. (Perhaps even in MOVIE history)

WALL-E is essentially a love story, but also smacks at themes of environmentalism and modern-day consumerism - for it opens with dismal view of a dystopian Earth, having long since been abandoned by the humans that trashed it. Doesn't sound like a "feel good" movie, now does it? That's where WALL-E and EVE come in. The first half consists of no dialogue -- the interaction between the two protagonists is all in pantomime. And it is MAGICAL! I didn't think so much development was possible with characters who couldn't speak. These two felt alive, had so much emotion, and blatant attraction to each other, and conveyed it better through wordless exchanges than most "talking" characters in Disney's previous films.

I won't give away anything else. The film is simply beautiful. For those of you watchers who haven't seen it yet, I URGE you do so. You will be moved.

I give WALL-E a 9.5/10.

So, yea...On another note, I apologize for my lack of art updates, and for being remiss on acknowledging comments and faves. I'm planning on going through my 200 somewhat messages and thanking every single one of you who left really nice comments.

As for my art, I've barely had time to do any of my own stuff. I've been working at a special effects studio in Hollywood as an illustrator and concept artist, which is pretty cool, but draining. So, yes. I'm working six days a week now. Damn those deadlines! I wish I can upload some art I've done for the studio, but I can get in big trouble for that. Damn those non-disclosure agreements! XD

Oh, I got a new cat! (Well, I've had him for alost a year now; just never mentioned him until now) His name is Sidney. =D

The next thing I post will probably be Kr1mzon's gift art I promised her for her birthday...in '07. >.> Man I feel like shit.

I may have to grace my page with a tribute to <3 WALL-e and EVE, too, because I love them so much!

Ta ta until next time!

Hey you, long time no see! :hug: Did you change accounts?
Yea, I thought I'd keep my other account more professional. =) (although my Zim fan art did help me get a job). I didn't want clients to see my dirties lol =P

Sorry for the late reply! ^^;
No problemo :hug:
Heh, I can understand not wanting clients to see certain things depending on the type of job one is looking for. People are judgmental :C
You have an, incredible style! =3

I think I shall watch you! ^^
