Plot Summary
What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL*E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL*E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet's future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL*E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets an adventure into motion. Joining WALL*E on his journey across the universe is a cast of characters including a pet cockroach and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.

Trivias
- The teaser trailer contains part of Michael Kamen's score for Brazil (1985). Michael Kamen was going to score another Pixar film, The Incredibles (2004), but died before he could.
- Jim Reardon left his position as supervising director of "The Simpsons" (1989) television series to do animation on this film. Appearing on the audio commentary for his episode "Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo", Reardon finally confirmed the title of the film he was working on - prior to that he would only say that it was due in 2008.
- The main character's name is actually an acronym, standing for Waste Allocation Load Lifter -- Earth-Class.
- There is almost no human voice-acting in the movie. Most of the predominantly robot cast of characters is voiced by Ben Burtt through mechanical sounds of his creation.
