Realizations about WALL-E

Prior to this experience, I never really liked the movie Wall-E. I didn’t like how little dialogue there was for much of the movie but watching it again, I was able to see the beauty in the silence of the movie. I feel like the writers and directors decided to eliminate much of the dialogue for the movie to be representative of the “hiatus” that the Earth needs from humans’ everyday activities and overall nature. Another relevant theme explored in this movie was capitalism’s effects and what it is doing/has done to the Earth. This is especially relevant in this time because climate change is a heavily debated topic in politics with one side denying climate change as a problem and the other disputing the opposite. Regardless of one’s views, it’s crucial that we are mindful of what we are doing to the Earth.
