Editorial Review: Product Description: Pixar Animation Studios, the innovators behind Toy Story, Finding Nemo, and Ratatouille, has again reinvented the genre with WALL E. When a robot searching for a connection finds EVE, a sleek female probe-droid from outer space, he embarks on an adventure-filled journey across the galaxy. Inspired by classic films, and a brave venture in its own right, WALL E is set to awe audiences this summer. The Art of WALL E includes more than 250 imaginative pieces of concept art, including storyboards, full-color pastels, digital and pencil sketches, character studies, color scripts, and more. The astute text—featuring quotes from the director, artists, animators, and production team—unearths the filmmakers' historical inspirations and reveals a studio confidently pushing the limits of animation. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - mmmmm......Mix feelings about this one. The info its great like always and its nice to read. But the pictures, although many and beatiful, they are not so stricking as other publications such as the art of the incredibles, the art of ratatouille, ect. Nice to own though. Rating:  - The "E" in Wall.E stands for ExcellentThe "Art of ---- " books that are published in connection with the release of (mostly) animated films have evolved over the years from expensive, large format, coffee table smashers to smaller (and thankfully less expensive) formats. However, the artwork between the covers of the latest generation of these books is no less lush. In the tradition of "Art of..." books, The Art of Wall.E documents the development of the characters and story line through a wealth of drawings that range from thumbnails ... Read More Rating: - Beautiful BookIf you like seeing the work that goes into making a movie, this is a great book to get. Maybe not the best of Pixar's "art of" books, in my opinion, but it is full of wonderful sketches and paintings that led to the final film. Rating:  - Great Art of Wall-EIf you take a look in this book, and actually carefully go through every page, you'll see that Pixar puts an incredible amount of work and effort to make sure its animation looks ideal and stunning for every scene. The rough sketches and digital animation look amazing and the book explains many nuances in the whole making of the movie. Rating: - Missed opportunityFirst of all let me say that my rating doesn't have anything to do with Wall-e which is a great movie or Pixar which I love. Here I'm rating this book only. Regrettably, I must say that "The Art of Wall-e" is a missed opportunity. It could have featured many more drawings about wall-e (the actual character) and its genesis. Out of its 160 pages this book manages to devote to the design of this robot and to drawings showing how wall-e "works" a mere 4 pages (pages 48-49 and 52-53).
