I'm the least excited about Wall-E than I have been about any Pixar movie. Not only does the design of the character SCREAM Short Circuit, which turns me off like a mechanical switch ... but I feel betrayed by the trailer which, to my surprise and disgust, gave away the entire movie.
Pixar trailers have been known to be deceptively sub-par. But they have never before, to my witnessing, given away every setpiece and plot point the way modern liveactioner trailers often do. So now I feel as if I've seen Wall-E and the element of surprise will be sorely lacking when I do see it.
And I do intend to. I do not expect it to be bad. It's Pixar. I expect it to be entertaining and enjoyable. But I'm sad it will be significantly less surprising to me than all the prior Pixar films.
