I can’t say I ever remember being excited for the release of a G-rated movie… not that I attach much importance to ratings anyway, especially after watching This Film Is Not Yet Rated. But the point is: there’s a G-rated movie coming to town, and I’m excited for it. Just so happens that it’s animated. Yep, I’m really pumped for the release of a G-rated, animated movie. How old am I? A grizzled 28.
Pixar hasn’t let me down yet, and I’m expecting big things from Wall*E. When I’m looking forward to a film, I try to avoid all reviews until after I’ve seen it, but I noticed that AV Club gave it an A. They also published an interview with Andrew Stanton, the film’s writer/director.
Mel and I learned our lesson from going to see The Incredibles opening night in NYC, and this time we probably won’t smuggle in 2 giant cans of Sapporo each (way too much liquid for a comfortable viewing experience), but we’ll be there. Oh yes, we’ll be there.
