Wall-E and Feed Comparison The movie Wall-E and the novel Feed by M.J. Anderson differ in several areas; however‚ they have many connections in the author’s use of consumerism. Technology is so crucial to the society in Feed and Wall-E‚ that when it ceases to function‚ people are helpless and cannot survive without it. For an example in Feed‚ when the main characters’ Feeds are hacked‚ they can barely survive a few days without technology. While sitting in the hospital they are miserable‚ “They

Disney-Pixar’s Wall-E is a complex story for an animated‚ children’s film. Released in 2008‚ just a few months after the first generation IPhone hit the market‚ it paints a startling picture of our possible future.

I believe that Disney Pixar’s WALL-E and M.T. Andersons view on human nature is that humans will always cause destruction. Anderson displays this belief on the very last sentence in Feed: “Everything Must Go”(Anderson 299). This shows that he believes humans will live until they have destroyed everything.
