WALL-E

WALL-E

The movie situates on the year of 2700 where the world has long been uninhabitable. Humans have abandoned the earth because it has been covered with trash and waste which causes devoid of the plants and animal life. All human beings where continue their life in the outer space while the earth is preparing to its restoration. For how many years, only one robot remains on cleaning the earth, that is Wall-e. Wall-e (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) is the garbage collecting robot that has left to clean the mess of the earth.

Watching the movie, made me realized how the earth will be looked like when people act as an irresponsible human being throwing all their trash that leads to destroying the mother earth. Wall-e as a garbage collector robot has expending years to clean up the garbage left by uncaring and selfish people who are enjoying their lives in the spaceship Axiom. They have just waiting for the day when the earth is ready and available to be inhabitable. The movie is reminding everyone of us we might end up just like what is in this movie. We might headed to the same direction in which making our world inhabitable. As what we observe to our surroundings today, we have effectively polluted the land, water and air supply. Here in the movie, people are not worried on what happened to the earth and even thinking of learning to conserve it. However, we can never blame them because everything they do is cared by the machines. We all know we are too much dependent on technology since it makes us to save time and become efficient. Unfortunately, our dependency with those machines have isolated us from one another. The movie stresses out the rampant commercialism in Axiom. In the spaceship where people are aboard everything is being provided. Even if those things are not needed. For the Big and Large Corporation everything is provided that given them away to profit. As you observe on the people on Axiom, they are all suffering from obesity. Obesity has become the epidemic on the people on board to the spaceship because everything is cared of by the machine in which walking and standing became useless activities to humankind. They don't have time to have some exercise because they are comfortable of having hover chair in doing everything all day. With this movie, it makes us realized that yes technology is a great help us, it make things easier but too much reliance of those might as well give disadvantage to us.
