Never mind artful French flicks in which restless beauties ponder their pout. Never mind films about girls with teeth where the sun don’t shine (mirthsome though Teeth appears to be). This morning, the cinematic presses are all a-flutter with just one thing. That is Wall-E, the new film from Pixar’s cartoon slaves. And my, it looks beautiful.

Here is what is exciting about Wall-E:

It is from "the humans that brought you Finding Nemo", which quite apart from having a rather nice ring to it, also means that whilst it will initially appear to be a quirksome comedy made-for-kids, it will actually make you cry harder than a triple bill of The Way We Were, Beaches and Steel Magnolia. I.E. LOADS.

Like Nemo, it will probably teach you everything you ever needed to know about being a proper human being. There is a longer rant here about Pixar being more useful than the King James Bible when it comes to teaching young minds about kindness and love, but we will leave that for another day.

Look at this girl robot – a smooth and shiny white obelisk with blue neon eyes. She is heavenly.

It has a bit set in space which looks like Bladerunner’s Japanesy city, but filtered through Buzz Lightyear’s HD telly. It is all a bit wow.

It is has not got any Elton John songs in it.

And that is why Wall-E will be absolutely amazing. It is out here on 18th July. Watch the trailer below.
