1. 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 planets future

The first thing I saw was the piles of garbage and then while he was on the transportation system I saw lots of the same type of robot that Wall.E is. I think this is not a viable because we probably wouldn’t let garbage get that high up.i also don think we could get that much garbage or just leave earth behind full of garbage and surrounded by satellites while we go into space

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.)

Rubic Cube: The rubic cube might have to do with human intelligence and in some lack there of. Ring box: When Wall.E found the ring box he threw away the ring this might mean something to do with what Wall.E values. The plant: The plant might be the last plant left so Wall.E keeps it to try and save it. Movie: The movie has to do with love and things like music.

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: 4. Buy and Large seems to control a lot of things such as the government and travel. I think Buy and Large means to buy things in large quantities. 5. everybody on Axiom sits around and does not notice things like the pool in the middle of the room or all of the stars outside of the ship because of the chairs they are all in putting a screen in front of them and causes them to forget about the world around them. Some people on the ship go as far as not even moving their neck to talk to somebody beside them. I notice that they also like shade and they like relaxing. They also are confined to the tracks so they can go over the pool or anything like that. _ Friday,March 26,2010 6. What do the portraits of the Axiom captains tell us about humans over the time since they left Earth? A: I think it tells us that as the people kept on living in space they gained more weight but it after that it is beacause of the micro gravity on the ship.
