WALL-E - Official Synopsis

After hundreds of lonely years doing what he was built for, WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knickknacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator). 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 waiting aboard the luxury spaceship Axiom for news that it is safe to return home. Meanwhile, WALL-E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most incredible comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

WALL-E - Fun Facts for Kids

In the film, WALL-E is the last working robot left on Earth. He is a small trash compactor who dutifully keeps doing his job even though all of the humans and other robots are gone. According to Disney, in order to design WALL-E animators actually went to recycling stations to observe giant trash crushers and other machinery at work, and they also studied real robots. Disney's WALL-E website lets kids try their own hand a creating a robot character. But, kids can even go a step further and create their own robot with LEGO MINDSTORMS products.
