It's a classic romantic comedy. Lonely trash robot meets sentient space probe. You'll laugh. You'll cry. Your soul will be shattered and jettisoned into the abyss.

Our last movie of Eye of the Duck: A Space Odyssey is WALL-E. So you know we had to leave you (and ourselves) in an emotional black hole. Thanks, Pixar.
