Thank God this is up for rating. Avoid the theatrical cut. This is the director's intent. I still remember being in the theaters waiting for a World's Finest movie. I got something so much more. I'd have to wait for this edition however to come out on blu-ray but it changed all the issues I had with the theater cut experience. The reason we got the Snyder cut movement was because of this. We knew the studio tampered with an epic vision. If you want the true Ultimate experience watch this back to back with Man of Steel and Zack Snyder's Justice League.

WALL·E
(2008)
Funny, romantic, adventurous, this little movie has it all.

First off I'd like to say I give this movie a 9.5 out of 10. It's nearly flawless and its great to see robots with emotions. Not only is it a great story and wonderfully animated, it's great to look at too. Everything from the abandoned city, the space station, and the universe are all magnificent and wonderful. My favorite character besides Wall-e and EVE is the captain of the space station and I'm surprised John Ratzenburg didn't voice him (he got a fat guy that was thrown out of his car). I love how the animators and story goes into showing how robots will and can take over all our little duties making us extremely lazy. But how much is helping and how much should we give them to do? I loved this movie and it by far ranks as one of the best of the Pixar films.
Better than the Temple of Doom and a great addition to the series.

Don't get me wrong, Crystal Skull has many flaws. But I've already seen it twice, and I loved it even more the second time. The first time coming out, I thought it was okay and a decent addition to the series. I went home and watched the Temple of Doom after already seeing the other ones. Temple of Doom wasn't one of my favorite movies, but I liked it a little bit better this next time I saw it. Anyway, finally seeing all three films together in such a long time and going to see the fourth movie again with my buddy who is a huge Indiana Jones fan, I found myself enjoying Crystal Skull even more. It has a great story, great characters, and Indy is just the same as ever, just maybe a bit older. I mean yeah the fridge, monkeys, and the Mac character are a little annoying but it mulls over the second time and you're already used to it, knowing the story that's about to unfold. Sure this movie isn't as brilliant as Raiders or the Last Crusade but it has the spirit and the rhythm and is a brilliant film for its genre. I think people go in expecting too much and that's the problem. I consider myself a bit more prepared seeing what Lucas did with Star Wars (though Revenge of the Sith wasn't bad) and figure it could have been much worse. Thank goodness for Spielberg's input and directing. Anyway, I highly recommend seeing this film. It is a bit more sci-fi than the others, but I also think Spielberg and Lucas are making homage to the B movie sci-fi pictures of the 50's. If you love the trilogy (which I'm guessing you do), you can also see the small homages to them as well. Definitely seeing Temple of Doom after so long, made me love Crystal Skull even more. It gives you that complete feeling coming out of the theater and you know that in your heart, Crystal Skull was better than Temple of Doom and a great summer movie.
