One of the best reasons for HDTV. This weekend, Wall-E arrived. I recorded it and the family and guests watched it together, Sunday evening. What a wonderful film. I don't recall having teary eyes watching an animated film since I was a kid viewing Bambi. The politics were terrific. The animation phenomenal. I don't think these folks ever miss a beat.

Either Disney has a lot of confidence in it, Pixar has tremendous pull, or someone rightly decided that sometimes you just have to let go of counting the peanuts and make a fantastic movie just because. Also, thank gawd for posting the inflation-adjusted gross as well. I'm so sick of people throwing numbers around like movie grosses and stock market figures just for dramatic effect without fairly comparing them to accurate past numbers.
