Movie Watch: Go, Wall-E, Go!

Yesterday, I watched Walt Disney's new animation film, Wall-E, with mayi and maomao at Plaza Singapura.

The film is a very fun and touching story on WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class), which has its own feelings and learns to mimick after human beings. He was left behind on an abandoned Earth which is polluted beyond hope. Yet, day after day, he would work to clear the pile of rubbish, collecting little tokens to be kept at his home.

Soon after, he came across EVE (Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator), which was brought to Earth by a spaceship. And so, the viewer gets a robotic version of love that transcends all boundaries and space.

Wall-E is extremely likable as a kind robot who would sacrifice himself for Eve's directive. Together with Eve, they managed to get the humans to return to Earth and save it. Beyond the film's fun adventures lies a simple message that only we can save our Earth from pollution.

This film is truly good and when the DVD release comes, I will buy it for remembrance. So, as usual, I have attached pictures from the Internet of the movie for fun:

















After the film ended, all 3 of us went to Chinatown for some korean dinner where xin would join us. The little eatery is located along Mosque street and it was very crowded when we arrived at the place. Luckily for us, we managed to get a table before another huge crowded descended on the place. All of had ramen for dinner and I ate lots of kimchi, much to my stomach's delight.

I have been craving for kimchi for a long time and this dinner hit the right spot very well. Mao stayed for a short while before going home as she wasn't feeling well. And so the remaining 3 of us walked to Central after dinner for a cuppa of coffee before heading for home.

I suppose after tonight, it would hard to get anybody out as everyone would be too busy with their lives to bother. And so, I shall end my writing here.
