*Wall-E 2: Electric Boogaloo*

Y’all are talking about the sound design and the lack of dialogue but CAN we TALK ABOUT the fact that the taller robots expressions are conveyed so well with just a lit triangle?? These animators and character designers are brilliant

Whenever Pixar animates robots I gain a year of life.

Must be a sad life to have been programmed to know a high five, and not being able to actually do it.

Pixar said SparkShorts is where they give Pixar filmmakers money to create whatever film they want, something that tells a story about them. This is why I love these shorts so much! They tell a story about something, or some things, the film maker experienced or feels. Very powerful!

These look expensive and crazy time consuming! Pixar, you're a class-A gem for putting these online for free!

A metaphor about: "Those who does not move does not feel the chains that bind him". Revolutionary robots

Unable to high five your only bro? Welp, time to destroy the bourgeoisie.

Pixar's got me crying about robots. It's like Wall-e all over again

As I did with WALL-E, I really enjoyed the sound design in this short, especially the ''voices'' of the two robots.

One's a shovel that's not the keenest robot around, the other's a hammer that's surprisingly cool and elegant for such a blunt implement. Within roughly 8 minutes, we see how deep their friendship is, their characters, and the struggle that's worn them down for an unknown amount of time. We see them comfort and reassure each other, and even risk everything to protect each other... and finally find a strange sort of freedom, now stuck together with something they're much more fond of. Probably my favorite short film of all time. Years later and I'm still watching this over and over. I like it when Pixar animates nonverbal, expressive robots, what can I say? What I'd give to see a full-length film seeing these two... Where they end up going, if they'd still be chased, if those sleek fellows living it up in those towers are any friendly.

It’s so amazing how well they animated their emotion so well without faces

Leave it to Pixar to tell such great stories in a little amount of time and with no dialogue.

Pixar does love it’s rogue AI

3:49 "I'll be back" "Alright"

amazing how you can fit more relatable characters and motivations into an 8 minute short than some people manage to put into full length feature films

I’m loving these new shorts, thanks Pixar

And this is why you don't give a fireman robot 100x magnifying capabilities. He was clearly overqualified for the position.

TBH, short films where there’s no dialogue, and the characters are portrayed through their actions are my favorites. I love this!

When you're so advanced... That the rich continue to rely on slaves for basic needs.

This is wickedly cool, I love it. Robots forced to work together on a space train seek freedom together after growing to like one another. It's such a simple, yet so bizarre idea on the surface, but is executed extremely well here given the time and budget. A super powerful story

WALL-E would be best friends with these robots. Another great SparkShort, Pixar. The animation looks absolutely stunning!

This seems like the setup for a great co-op video game.

Alternate Tile: What a wired VR headset feels like

Just realized that "Smash" and "Grab" are the names of the robots

This is like a mix between Wall-E and Portal2 and I love it

"in the future, machines will have very high accuracy and efficiency" The machine: 1:52

Even 3 years later the animation is crisp and smooth. Talk about artists being ahead of their time

Don't you just hate it when your umbilical cord restricts your movement.

Pixar don't even need faces in their characters to create emotions

Their animation is getting so good and much better from when they started in 1995

I've watched this at least 6 times, I love it so much. Wish there was a whole movie about these two!

I felt really sad when that one robot got shot and I only knew him for 5 MINUTES. That's saying something.

They kinda remind me of the 2 robots from portal 2

No dialogue but still delivers the feel to the audience. Great work, Pixar.

Love how they used a streamlined steam engine, considering they looked very futuristic.

I miss when UKposts was filled with animated shorts like these.

"how are we going to fuel the train? 100 iq person: Let's use some claws and a conveyer belt 200 iq person: Sentient robots

The vibe I am getting from this is, smash the rich, grab the means of production.

There is a lot like 70 Years of Experience in this short 7 minutes movies

I really liked this, a lot more than Purl. Cute little short story in a fun setting to explore. Also liked how they went from being separated to being attached to each other.

Well now they're friends for life.

explain a plot badly: a train is destroyed by robots because they couldn't high five they escape

I don't know what it is about Pixar short films and movies, but I just love them! They always make me smile, and right now, we need more of that in our lives!

Caution: Rogue Robots

Now THAT'S a compelling story How the triangle eye on the tall one was able to express so much emotion! Amazing

I'm a simple man -- I see a robot with a hammer and sickle for hands in a dystopian Pixar short about production, disruption, and societal position, I click.

I never thought a short film about two robot husbands revolting against the government because they can't high five would be so entertaining

The lengths we go just to high-five your bro.

This is actually pretty cute they can finally high-five

wow that train derailing really did a number on the tracks 6:24

This radiates the same energy as wall-e. I love it

Are these Wall-E's cousins

Pixar’s SparkShorts are one of the most amazing ideas they’ve created so far. To see other aspiring artists in the fields work and undeniable talent is an amazing and inspiring thing, especially for someone who’s dream is to be in that chair behind the movie.

The expressions shown by yes the eyes but also the body movement is so good. I love how they move it feels like they have personality and are real

When robots shows more human emotions than humans themselves.

Infinity train is looking good.

I have a big question about this... What are those robots at the top of those glowing spikes... like a high class of robots while a low class works hard and never gets to reach beyond limits provided by the high class?

That was a great mix of friendship, overcoming obstacles and stations in life, love and sharing while satisfying the Sci-fi nerd in me.

I really like how there is no dialogue yet we feel and understand it, this reminds me of the classic pixar movies. I feel the creativity in this short :3

Folks, this looks like the closest thing we'll get to Wall-E 2 so... Enjoy

This was dope. A Pixar short about two robot slaves breaking free from their oppressors? Yes please.

The music!!! And the lil robot noises!! So cool!

Der Film hat mehr Tiefe als ein 90 min film. Spannung, Action und Freundschaft. Sowie die grandiose Animation.

this short is so interesting. the 2 robots don't desire to live amongst the upper class, they desire autonomy. they don't seek to destroy the bourgeoisie, they seek to live out their lives beyond the reach of society. their escape was violent, yes, but only because it appeared to be the only way.

Ooooo I love these Sparkshorts! As someone who is going to major in animation they make me very happy. The ability to tell such a compelling story without words is nothing short of amazing. Edit: WOAH!!! I’ve never gotten more then maybe 10 likes on a comment. I’m so happy people like what I have to say. Good luck to anyone who reads this and is hoping to go into animation like me. Second Edit: I HAVE COMMITTED TO SCAD!!!!! Yay!!!!

I love these robot boyfriends and they need a movie! Or at least a cameo lol

The True Lesson: “*THIS SHORT IS BEAUTIFUL*”

It's amazing how these animators can create a story filled with emotion using no words. Great job to everyone who worked on this!

Commit felonies to high five your friends

i still love this SSOOOOOO MUUCCHHHHH!!!!!!!!! smash (the bot with the hammer) sounds SSSOOOOOOO COOOOOOLLLLL!!!!!!!!! i draw and design robots myself, and i really wish i could use smash’s “voice” for some of my robots...

I love how you can make complex emotion with just simple robot aperture eyes.

Gosh darn it sentient friendly robots are my weakness

This short is quite smashing, it really grabbed my attention.

Train explodes Me: That's deep

I love Wall-E so this animation gives me *LIFE*

I legit appreciate the zero ads before these. Disney doing it right, saving some money collected so we can just enjoy this content.

The attention to detail is amazing it's always Pixar upstaging Pixar

This is the one I want as a whole movie, since the last robot Pixar movie we had was wall e and I don't think there's been anything else like it.

Really cool animated short. Sort of a futuristic Sci-fi where robots dominate the environment & 2 of them decide to go against their programed duties. It does make me wonder why we humans like the idea of robots showing & expressing emotion 🤔. In any case, I enjoyed this one!

Reminds me of Wall-e, especially the sounds

Plot twist: these are Wall-E's family

came for the title, stayed for the gorgeous animation and cute story

This looks like a co op game and i need it

Can't do high-five. *Let's destroy everyone* Edit: Thanks @Blakka Fly for correction.

robots consider hand holding/touching as the ultimate expression of intimacy/expression, ergo the plot of wall-e and,, this short

why are the noises at the beggining satisfying edit: *Why are the robots adorable*

This is by far the best Pixar short ever

*I am a simple man. I see Pixar short, I am a happy man.*

I’m getting portal 2 vibes here

Robots too have emotions ❤️

I LOVE those robot designs!

Some people dislike this But not us Not us

This reminded me of Wall E in a way.

The SOUND DESIGN in this, god I'm in love.

Imagine if the short film to be played before Dumbo (2019).

Great animation overall! Beautiful lighting and shadow work. I find it amazing how much expression could be put into robots who cannot speak and do not have normal facial expressions. I give a solid 9/10! Pixar's back at it again!!!

They went from an inconvenient scenario to a more inconvenient scenario.

Honestly I could see a whole movie come out of this, while the steam powered train seems a bit out of place, the idea of two robots that break free from their shackle and enter a city in which no others are like them; could have an interesting plot.
