Wall-E...the sad future of human kind

I'm uploading this video to make a point about the dangers for human kind, if we become addicted and cover all our needs, through the internet. This started from a discussion, about e-learning in my university class, and how education would lose it's very important role to socialize people, but it's also a lesson for human kind.

woah.. this was the most strong critic to the human race... make me think, and the best part is minute 3:38... the girl disconected by wall-e... and she feels like she born again, watching a "new world" who ironically, was in front of her all da time... BEST CRITIC TO US

We really need to quit relying so much on technology, or well all end up being boneless slugs :0

Fear, selfishness and a lack of desire to improve ourselves are what causes humans problems. I myself have never met another person as vicious and pure evil as I have been myself at times. I've thought about killing myself, my family, and random strangers just out of pure hatred. But once I developed a conscience it became clear that love, peace and joy is a much better way to live your life.

@xiujk12 No, it's people that makes people fat.

If people started having some self-consciousness, this would not happen.

@Tripo1iSamson It's not anti-corporate. It's anti-monopoly. This isn't a movie about economics as much as about a single company that has monopolized on every possible industry, becoming a de facto totalitarian government. Corporations are (usually) not all that bad (the largest corporations tend to be the exceptions to this rule, but most companies are fair, and provide reasonable employment), but this particular company has progressed beyond that.

Its the axiom that makes people fat.

If there is no axiom or BNL, this would not happen

@3ohfive telling gay people they're precious and special and all that typical unoriginal jive. So if Pixar is so open-minded and wonderfully enlightened or liberal, then maybe they could practice an open-minded idea and for once not make business, capitalism, or a corporation the villainous character to be used in their unoriginal, recycled ideas. Fair enough?

[Tripo1iSamson]

@3ohfive governments world-wide have committed more atrocities, overstepped boundaries, stolen more money, and done loads and loads of worse things than any corporation anywhere. If I told you that any money you made from selling anything must be taxed at an ever-increasing rate in order to pay for my job, what would I be? Either a mobster or a government tax collector. And not mention, Pixar made some long video about how "it gets better," some excessively positive video aimed at

[Tripo1iSamson]

@3ohfive Fair enough. Merry Christmas by the way. The generic "anti-corporate" message is so overused in movies that it's become a regular "this is the villain" type trope. It's unoriginal and often stems from misunderstanding. In WALL-E, there's no actual transactions made- no cash changes hands, no goods change hands. It seems like any company involved in the world of that movie is more like a totalitarian government. Also, to this day,

@Tripo1iSamson why is the anti-corporation narrative annoying? genuinely curious here.
