Wall-e

Today, with very little coercing but coercing none the less, i went to see Wall-e with my friend Matt. barring parents we were the oldest people there by about 13 yrs but that in no way impeded our enjoyment of the film minus some choice screaming from the kids in the second row. The film while not overly long was long enough. the first 30 minutes have virtually no talking and while that is a sometime a fine tactic (see There Will Be Blood) for in this i was bored, though my boredom was quelled somewhat but the appearance of a song from the musical Hello Dolly. Hello Dolly is one of the first films i ever watched and have always loved it so unfortuately for Wall-e i spent the next hour or so wishing i was watching Hello Dolly instead. The Plot of Wall-e is tolerable and has its funny moments but it is hardly built to compete with other films i have seen lately aimed at children Narnia and even Space Chimps provided me with more stimulating viewing.

Now to reveal one of my deepest of shames.... I love High School the Musical!!
this is truly shocking to anyone who knows me. but there we are i admit my flaws freely. today in the Previews before Wall-e i saw the trailer for the third movie, i cannot wait to see it!!!
