==Synopsis==
WALL-E is a movie featuring a garbage clean-up robot, named WALL-E: Waste Allocation Load-Lifter Earth Class, who is left behind alone on a desolate version of the planet [[Earth]] in the year 2815. Unlike all his fellow units (of the same name), WALL-E manages to survive alone for 700 years, mainly due to spare parts and his occasional companion, a cockroach.

One day, WALL-E, through his rummaging, finds something in a boot filled with dirt--a [[plant]]! Never having seen a [[plant]] before, he stuffs it in with his other collections. The next day, by coincidence, an unmanned spaceship arrives on the planetary surface, bringing a new [[robot]], E.V.E: Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator.

WALL-E, seeing her for the first time is elated and in love; a full montage ensues as he tries, to no success, to impress E.V.E. However, he finally gets the courage to introduce himself, and during a sand (or junk) storm, takes her for cover inside his hangar. There, he shows her many novelties he has found--a Rubik cube and [[light]] bulb for two--and tries to dance with her to the music from [[Hello, Dolly!]].

However, after a while, he decides to show her the plant; she almost overloads and shuts down, disconnecting the power in WALL-E's hangar. Over the next few days, he tries, unsuccessfully, to wake her up, usually getting electrocuted in the process.

Meanwhile, WALL-E, unable to hold the Holodeck open any longer, is crushed under its weight, to the horror of all onboard. Luckily, EVE and M-O find the planet and put it on the deck, sending them all to Earth--home.
