Has she been coming to Earth for 700 years, too?
Are all EVEs sentient?
I think they're all like that, built with AI programming in their artificial brains and allowed to develop their own personalities. I think there have been many Eve's sent to Earth over the centuries, but she was the first to bring back a living plant.
My current theory is that she isn't nearly as old as Wall-E. It's possible the various Eve's preceding her wore out over time, so she was probably a brand new one built in the Axiom's robot factories deep in the ship, and possibly only a few months old when she first visited Earth. It's hard to tell, despite her shiny, new-looking shell and cutting-edge tech.
How did humans go through many millions of years of evolution in only 700 years?
How did Bugs Bunny learn to speak English?
are talking about the fattening?
I don't have the numbers, but I thought that happens pretty quickly to even current astronaughts so they work very hard exercising to keep it in check.or did you mean something else?
The humans in this movie were far more than just "fat." Their skeletal systems had changed shape, way more than just "losing bone density." They'd de-evolved into adult sized infants.
EDIT: Just learned some cool stuff about this. In the early drafts of the story, the ship that comes to earth is totally weird and alien. When WALL-E encounters the lifeforms aboard the ship, they're green translucent gelatinous blob creatures that speak unintelligible gibberish. Then at the very end there's big Planet of the Apes style twist where it's revealed that the alien blobs are the descendants of humans who left earth millions of years ago and life in low gravity caused them to gradually evolve into this weird form. Then Pixar decided it would be a better and more relatable movie if they were cute neo-baby people who had only been gone for a few hundred years instead of millions.
All of the robots in WALL-E's universe have advanced intelligence. But, I also think WALL-E has an effect on his fellow 'bots. As soon as he meets them, things change. EVE is almost entirely business-minded until she meets WALL-E. The other 'bots act out only after they meet WALL-E.
Heck, even the humans on the AXIOM don't start snapping out of their state of cultural and spiritual torpor until after they meet the adorable, eponymous droid.
Very well stated.
WALL-E was a positive disruption in their routines, helping them see their own role in another way. For machines, is it possible for them to learn behaviors or is it just an aligned circuitry of sequences? Machines that can operate independent of an automated network usually have no CPU, allowing them to go outside their programming. So the question becomes, are they capable of emotion? WALL-E shows that such a change in character starts from within.

Very interesting.
