seriously? you think Andrew Stanton sit for days writing a screenplay set with a background of consumerism and ecology with the intention of writing another version of romeo and juliette with two robots as protagonists ? generally when an author writes a simple love story, his purpose is to have a backbone for his own message he wants to convey with other contextual elements of the story
- a257 4y ago> In the DVD commentary, Stanton said that he has been asked if it was his intention to make a movie about consumerism. His answer was it was not; it was a way to answer the question of how would the Earth get to the state where one robot would be left to continue the cleanup by itself. Nevertheless, some critics have noted an incongruity between the perceived pro-environmental and anti-consumerist messaging of the film, and the environmental impacts in the production and merchandising of the film [1] [1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WALL-E#Themes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WALL-E#Themes)
