Improved Essays

He has tank like legs, with eyes that look like binoculars with claws for hands. Throughout this whole film you can see how much WALL-E changes, mostly because of the people around him. I think the one quality I see, that doesn’t change is his curiosity. It seems that WALL-E follows a day to day routine. Every morning he powers on, gets his little cooler puts it behind him, and opens the door to greet the new day. As he strolls through the deserted city, it seem that he’s like the only one left on the planet, except for his little bug friend. He starts his daily duties by doing what has been programed to do,

    On June 12, 1987, former President Ronald Reagan gave one of his famous speeches, “Remarks at the Brandenburg Gate.” On a superficial level, Reagan uses the speech to petition to the Soviet Union for peace, nuclear and chemical arms reduction, and the demolition of the Berlin Wall. He also highlights the progress and prosperity that have arisen in the western world since the division between communism and democracy was established. Beyond the surface, Reagan subtly disparages communism while simultaneously building up democracy. He emphasizes the importance of freedom, liberty, free trade, and other democratic ideals and uses the speech to inspire hope and restore faith that the western world will prevail through adversity.…

The fact that they felt scared to talk shows that their independent thought and freedom to express those thoughts was being heavily repressed.
