Wall. E Paragraph**

**Q-** In a paragraph, describe the setting of Wall.E’s world in the first half hour of the movie. Is it a viable depiction of our planet’s future? Explain.

**A-** I think that in the movie, the setting was trying to show loneliness. Wall. E is on Earth, after everyone has left. Wall. E seems to be there to clean up Earth, since everyone has left. Wall. E spends his time making garbage cubes, collecting things that he can find around the area, and get doing what he can. He found a plant, and decided to keep it so he could have something else for his collection that he has never seen before. Wall. E is in the world all-alone, until Eve comes along to try to find something. Wall. E and Eve had gone into where Wall. E stays because of a sand storm. He showed Eve the plant, and that’s what she had been searching for.

I think it is a viable depiction of our planets future, because one day if something were happens, there would be no more Earth. I think if we do anything worse than what we do now, we could end up leaving Earth.

Wall.E Response.**

**Q-#1-** What is the significance of the name "Buy and Large"? Explain in a few sentences.

**A-** Buy and Large is the name of a store; or as it is shown in the movie, is like where the get all of their things (Food, clothing, etc). Everyone lives on Buy and Large, because thats the only thing that they will give on the ship.

**Q #2-** 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.

**A-** The lifestyle in the Axiom is, all the same. They do the same things everyday, but they get no exercise. They sit in chairs that take them everywhere, they sit and talk to people on the screens, and they eat Buy and Large food all the time. I don't think that there are any similarities, because they get no exercise, and they only eat out of cups. Their lifestyle is very different from ours right now. People on Earth today, cook food, and get exercise everyday. The message to learn would probably be if life had to be like that, we would all have to get out and do exercise more.

**Q #3-** What do the portraits of the Axiom captains tell us about humans over the time since they left Earth?

**A-** As you see in the movie, the people don't eat anything healthy at all. They all sit in chairs and eat food in a cup. In the movie, it shows portraits of the captains that were on the Axiom. From the time they got on the Axiom, the captains were very skinny, and as they years went on and on, the captains got bigger. Because of the Buy and Large company taking over everything, they all have been getting bigger and bigger.

 * Q- ** 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.)


 * A- ** The artifacts that Wall.E has collected symbolize a lot of things. He had kept extra parts for himself, just in case something were to happen to him. He collected, toys, a ring box, lighters, old appliances, and any old food he could find. He kept most things because he thought they were cool or he thought they would come in handy. He would put things in order, like if he found certain toys, they would have different areas to place them in. Whenever he would find things; he would take them and put them in an area, even if he already has more than one of them. He found old t.v.'s and old appliances that he collected, and found out how to use them. Some things he found like the appliances, the ring box and the old food; tell us about the human race. It some what shows that people could be wasteful. We just throw things away, even if nothings wrong with them, like the appliances, the ring box (which had a ring inside of it). In Wall. E's world, the world wouldn't be so empty, if we didn't waste so much. It tells us that the human race is actually pretty wasteful. The plant was the only significance, of living life on Earth so far. When Wall.E found the plant, and when he gave it to Eve, it meant that there was still life on Earth. With Wall.E being a kids movie, it does have a meaning outside of what kids may think. The meaning is saying that if we keep doing the things that we're doing, and stay the way we are; the world could become like it is in the movie. This is what I think the about the artifacts that Wall.E collected and what the significance and the meaning of them were.
