Cannibalism in WALL-E
Death is a subject that Pixar doesn’t want its viewers to think of. However, since it’s such a natural part of life, of course fans are going to wonder what happens to the dead passengers aboard the Starship Axiom. If we dig deeper into life on the Starship Axiom, nobody eats anything. Why is that?
Of course, Pixar isn’t going to display people munching on the limbs of others. No, that would be far too dark! However, what we would suggest is that the robots in charge of running the Starship actually blend the dead passengers into a high-protein paste that the living passengers happily slurp up. Is that any better?
