Yep.

As much as I like any other.

It's in the realm of my favorites.

It's really that good.

The PQ/AQ is also the best BD has ever had.

Sounds good. I'll probably be getting this for the grandkids, and me.

Was there much dialogue in the movie?

The price is pretty ridiculous in the stores here. $30-32 for the 2-disc and $36 for the 3-disc. Amazon sells both for $24.99.

I saw it in the theater, and am looking forward to getting this on blu-ray. The first large chunk of the movie has almost no dialog (perhaps 40, 45 minutes or so). Once wall-e is on the space ship, there are lots of people around, and then the speaking increases. My son, who is 4, got the gist of the movie.

Thanks for the input. I heard there wasn't much dialogue, just curious. I'll get this movie probably the same time I get TDK.

I took my 4 year old daughter to see this opening weekend. It was her 1st movie in a theater and she loved it. I enjoyed it too. I preordered the BD from amazon and do not have it yet.

I watched this as a rental tonight and I thoroughly enjoyed it so I will be looking to pick it up for a decent price.

I liked how they conveyed the plot without dialog.

That was my favorite quality in the plot.

There isn't a single line of dialog in the first 45 minutes, and you still feel 100% connected to the story.

It's a simple story about a guy falling for a girl who's out of his league.

It's basically an almost silent movie, combining Hello Dolly, E.T. ( ), 2001 and Buster Keaton/Charles Chaplin.

My movie of the year, can't wait for copy to arrive.

deepdiscount had the 3 disc version for $27.83 with free shipping. Bought it last week, still waiting to get it, maybe tomorrow.

I am genuinely excited to see the PQ/AQ of this movie. The story to me was good, not quite great. But my son loves anything robot based and had to have the Wall-E toy 2 weeks before we even saw the movie. He's 17. LOL! Just kidding, he's 5.
