It was lonely and empty until Eva came in to his world then it felt full and then Eva got a hold of the plant and went into a non-responsive state and that is what we were left. I think it is possible but it will be longer than 200-300 years I am thinking that it will happen in 275-375 years from now and it will sorta be like that except we will have a huge mountain of junk that got compressed by the robots and that we will still have people on earth to fix the robots and keep them going to clean the mess up faster

2. Make note of and describe some of the “artifacts” that Wall.E has collected. What is the significance/meaning of these objects as symbols? What do they tell us about the human race? Explain in a paragraph. (Use the following chart to collect notes as you view.)

He has collected some weird things but he has collected some lighters and tapes parts for him self so that he can stay running and do what he was programmed to do. Clean the earth up so that it will be habitable again. He also picked up things that he found interesting things while what he would call interesting but we would call regular stuff they do say that we are pigs. Don’t care about the environment.

5. Describe the lifestyle of the people who inhabit Axiom. Describe any similarities with these people’s lifestyle and the lifestyle of people on Earth today. What is the message to be learned from this comparison? Explain in a paragraph

The connection that I see from them to us is that we are polluting this world and for them they are far beyond polluting the world they are to the point where they started to clean up they were lazy talking to the people that were 3 feet away form them on a computer screen

6. What do the portraits of the Axiom captains tell us about humans over the time since they left Earth? Over time people got fat and then there kids got even fatter and so on.
