Remote Controlled "Ultimate Wall-E" Available For Pre-Order at $250
Maybe it was a miscalculation, or perhaps it is Disney trying to capitalize on the success of the film, but the Ultimate Wall-E remote controlled robot is now available for pre-order at $250—about $60 more than originally expected. Not a big deal, though—this toy is so feature-packed, it is almost like having the real thing. [Disney]

Zero-Gee Computing Recliner Proves Our Fat Future is Now
Everyone saw Wall-E, right? And how the luxury cruisers of the future glide around in floating touch-screen-equipped easy chairs? Then the Zero-Gee gaming/blogging "workstation" should look mighty familiar. Its ergonomic, reclining frame is designed to ensure your ass is free from the forces of gravity as you type, type, type yourself into oblivion. There's even a caddy for your liquified cupcakes-in-a-cup, and you're also positioned nicely for a root canal or any other minor surgeries here as well, which you'll need soon enough.

Wall-E Animator Tops Everyone Who Ever Wanted to Make a LEGO Wall-E
Were you thinking of building your own Wall-E out of LEGO? Pfft. I mean, no, go ahead. Just don't ever put it next to this model by Angus MacLane, who actually helped animate the film.

Wall-E Review: One of the Best Sci-Fi Movies in Years, Disguised as a Cartoon
Wall-E might be the most sympathetic, lovable robot ever created on film. While R2-D2 was hilarious and endearing, he had the benefit of C3PO to translate for him and a cast of human characters to carry the weight of the story. At the end of the day, R2-D2 was simply comic relief, but his descendant, whose voice was also created by Ben Burtt, is so full of humanity that you feel like your heart might just burst. Simply put, Wall-E is a masterpiece. More »

Wall-e Is Huge Glorious Robot Clusterfrak
Explorer robots, pilot robots, cleaning robots, broken robots. Robots robots robots. Robots everywhere. After drooling over this featurette on Pixar's Wall-e robot cast—with the creative team getting all Jon Iveish with us, explaining how their design follows function—we can only say two things: first, consider us officially excited. And two, we are happy George Lucas is not involved with this movie at all.
