In a distant, but not so unrealistic future, where mankind has
abandoned earth because it has become covered with trash from products
sold by the powerful multi-national Buy N Large corporation, WALL-E, a
garbage collecting robot has been left to clean up the mess. Mesmerized
with trinkets of earth's history and show tunes, WALL-E is alone on
Earth except for a sprightly pet cockroach. One day, Eve, a sleek (and
dangerous) reconnaissance robot, is sent to earth to find proof that
life is once again sustainable. WALL-E falls in love with Eve. WALL-E
rescues Eve from a dust storm and shows her a living plant he found
amongst the rubble. Consistent with her "directive" Eve takes the plant
and automatically enters a deactivated state except for a blinking
green beacon. WALL-E, doesn't understand what has happened to his new
friend, but true to his love, he protects her from wind, rain, and
lightening, even as she is unresponsive. One day a massive ship comes
to reclaim Eve, but WALL-E, out of love or loneliness hitches a ride on
the outside of the ship to rescue Eve. The ship arrives back at a large
space cruise ship, which is carrying all of the humans who evacuated
earth 700 years earlier. The people of earth ride around this space
resort on hovering chairs which give them a constant feed of TV and
video chatting. They drink all of their meals through a straw out of
laziness and/or bone loss, and are all so fat that they can barely
move. When the auto-pilot computer, acting on hastily given
instructions sent many centuries before, tries to prevent the people of
earth from returning, by stealing the plant, WALL-E, Eve, the portly
captain, and a band of broken robots stage a mutiny.
