WALL-E (promoted with an interpunct as WALL•E) is an American animation film released in 2008 and directed by Andrew Stanton. Walt Disney Pictures released it in the United States and Canada on June 27, 2008, grossing $23.1 million on its opening day, and $63 million during its opening weekend in 3,992 theaters, ranking number 1 at the box office.[1] It eventually grossed $223 million domestically and $533 million worldwide.[2] WALL-E received critical acclaim, with an approval rating of 95% on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.[3]

The film was nominated for several awards, including seven

Sound Editing and Best Original Screenplay at the 81st Academy Awards.[5] Walt Disney Pictures pushed for an Academy Award for Best Picture nomination,[6] but it was not nominated, sparking controversy over whether the academy deliberately restricted WALL-E to the Best Animated Feature category.[7] Film critic Peter Travers remarked, "If there was ever a time where an animated feature deserved to be nominated for best picture it's Wall-E."[8]

The feature has won Best Picture from the

Empire's 2008 online poll of the 100 greatest movie characters.[14] Time listed WALL-E number 1 in its top 10 movies of 2008, praising the directors' achievement in connecting with a large audience even though the characters have nearly no dialogue.[15] In early 2010, Time ranked WALL-E number 1 in "Best Movies of the Decade."[16] In 2016, the film was voted 29th out of 100 films regarded as the best of the 21st century
by 117 film critics from around the world.
