Why Wall-E is better than Avatar

1) Wall-E took risks. The thing about avatar is that its safe, it feels like a movie made by executives and business men, coldly planning out every aspect of t...he film so they can make money, apart from technology nothing is revolutionary, and technology isn't a risk. Wall-E takes a lot of risks, it could have easily been a flop, but it is about conveying art. From the rising towers of trash, to the dance in space, its all about trying to convey a real sense of meaning, not just showing images for its own sake. I mean, its like an American silent film more than anything else. Also avatar's moral isn't shocking, its just rehashing old cliche ethics, while Wall-E's point is kinda of shocking, its the story of Adam (wall-E) and EVE turning to labor as the path to salvation, turning away from the "false god" of Buy N large, the empty soulless void of capitalism and merchandise, but finding love in meaning. IT also attacks ... See More capitalism, the real thing, not the fact awkward business man of avatar, but instead the brand loyalty, the ease of cruise ships, the hollow existence of hedonism
2) It doesn't contradict its own message. Avatar glorifies a stone age society, which doesn't make any sense, because that movie required 310 million dollars to make, and the most advanced technology of a decedent, hedonistic, escapist society to be successful, marking itself with which is just hypocritical. Wall-E doesn't claim that technology is bad, just that it needs to be inferior to humanity, taht it serves to assistece not to dominate, its is still vauble. And they explain why the humans are on this endless capitalistic cruise ship, its easy, and useful. The message of technology is far greater when they clearly thought it out. Also the film is subtle, their isn't some revolution where they declare implausibility that society will never use technology again, its just shows the waste, but also how nice the humans are. 3) Its about people and hte real. Avatar is an escapist fantasy, the jungle doesn't feel like a jungle just the product of an animator to dazzle us, thats its purpose. In contrast, Wall-e Contrasts the clean, wonderful and perfect ship world to the dirty, grimy, destroyed real world, but it is the world of the real, as broken and grey as it is, ... where human kind can grow and create beuty, rather than simple living like parasites. The humans in this look so weird because by embracing technology they have given up their humanity, the robots are more human then they are because the follow the ethic of work and experiencing life, even if it is a hard life, rather than simple having an endless wave of pleasure. The story is about us, about who we are and what makes us who we are. Its encouraging us to leave the comfort of the ship and come to the ruin, and make a paradise, not escape into this virtual sex world. And that is beautiful
