It's time now to start getting excited about "WALL-E," the next big release from Pixar (June 27), which sometimes seems to own the Oscar for best animated feature. In the seven-year history of that category, Pixar has won three times ("Ratatouille," "The Incredibles" and "Finding Nemo") and lost only twice ("Cars" was surpassed by "Happy Feet" and "Monster's Inc." got squashed by "Shrek").

"WALL-E" was written and directed by the writer/helmer of "Nemo," Andrew Stanton, who penned "Toy Story," "Toy Story 2" and "A Bug's Life" before the Oscars created a category just for animated fare.

"WALL-E" is the tale of a silly, adorable robot left alone on Earth to clean up the mess after the planet's been deserted by the humans who trashed it to the point of being uninhabitable. When a sexy search robot named Eve drops by to check out the scene, lonely WALL-E falls in love and all heck breaks loose.

BuyNLarge not only sells robots that will do your laundry, fold the clothes and put them away in your closet and drawers, but also an electronic nanny called "NANC-E" that will feed and "stimulate" your infant baby. You can also buy a space condo and check out the retail company's corporate annual report that's so upbeat and chirpy that it's a musical.
