One weird apocalypse movie

The other day at dinner, Jimmy told us all about the new movie Wall-E. He has not seen it, but he knows all about it because of its kid-centric Web site.

According to Jimmy, this movie takes place in "the future." To clarify, he specified that Wall-E takes place:

1. Before the Second Coming

BUT

2. After everyone on Earth has died.

I got a good chuckle out of this. Although that sequence is incompatible, I am impressed that Jimmy saw fit to include the Second Coming when thinking about the temporal setting of an animated movie. He's a smart kid and knows the gospel very well, for a seven-year-old.

Wall-E totally looks like the robot from "Short Circuit"... minus the cheesy 80's style
