WALL-E is a 2008 American animated science fiction film produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures and directed by Andrew Stanton, following a solitary waste-collecting robot left behind on an abandoned, trash-covered Earth. The film is notable for its almost entirely dialogue-free first act, conveying character and story largely through visual animation and sound design rather than speech, an unusual approach for a mainstream animated feature aimed at a broad family audience. WALL-E was widely named among the best films of 2008 by critics across both animated and live-action categories, and in 2021 it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.
