The extras begin with two computer-animated shorts presented in Dolby 5.1 and, like everything else on the set, 16:9 enhanced. Presto (5:15) will be familiar to anyone who caught WALL•E in theaters and didn't arrive late. Like many Pixar shorts, this one sees how far it can go with a single-joke concept. Here, the joke involves a magician with two hats that serve as a portal and one bunny unwilling to perform without eating a carrot first. While thematically it's unrelated to the feature, its inclusion here is welcome.

A Pixar DVD wouldn't be complete without some Easter eggs. I scoured the menus in search of them, but came up empty. Viewing on DVD-ROM, I found three, which the press release confirms is the total.

Director Terry Gilliam praised the film as "A stunning bit of work. The scenes on what was left of planet Earth are just so beautiful: one of the great silent movies. And the most stunning artwork! It says more about ecology and society than any live-action film—all the people on their loungers floating around, brilliant stuff. Their social comment was so smart and right on the button." [124] Notes on a Score" (10:39) turns the focus on composer Thomas Newman, the Newman second most-employed at Pixar. In interviews and production footage, we learn about Newman's scoring process and collaboration with Andrew Stanton. Newman travelled to London to compose the end credits song " Down to Earth" with Peter Gabriel, who was one of Stanton's favorite musicians. Afterwards, Newman rescored some of the film to include the song's composition, so it would not sound intrusive when played. [21] Louis Armstrong's rendition of " La Vie en rose" was used for a montage where WALL-E attempts to impress EVE on Earth. The script also specified using Bing Crosby's " Stardust" for when the two robots dance around the Axiom, [23] but Newman asked if he could score the scene himself. A similar switch occurred for the sequence in which WALL-E attempts to wake EVE up through various means; originally, the montage would play with the instrumental version of " Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head", but Newman wanted to challenge himself and scored an original piece for the sequence.

Mistaking the process for torture, WALL·E intervenes and inadvertently releases all the other faulty bots, causing him and EVE to be designated as rogues. Frustrated, EVE tries to send WALL·E home in an escape pod, but before she can, the two witness a small robot, GO-4, stowing the plant in a pod set to self-destruct, revealing that WALL·E did not steal the plant. WALL·E tries retrieving it, but is launched into space. EVE uses an emergency exit to chase after WALL·E, and witnesses the pod explode, although both he and the plant survive unscathed. He and EVE reconcile, celebrating with a dance in space around the Axiom.

The technical beauty here welcomes more admiration than Pixar's past efforts, even if upon release those each felt like new benchmarks. There is the setting of outer space, which since Toy Story 2's emphatic opening has seemed like one vast canvas begging the studio to tell more stories there. There is the sound design by Spielberg and Lucas collaborator Ben Burtt, which turns mechanical sounds into personality, electronic ones into voice, and us into receptive learners of a new language. a b c Rod Dreher (July 5, 2008).
