10 More Insane Movie Theories That Actually Make Sense

10. Humans Eating Other Humans - Wall-E

In spite of the often devastating emotional gut-punches involved, and though they are beloved by people of all ages, Pixar movies are aimed at younger audiences. You'd be forgiven then, for not expecting anything like cannibalism to pop up in something like Wall-E.

This isn't explicitly referenced throughout the film, however there is a theory put forward by The Film Theorists YouTube channel that is so detailed and comprehensive it's actually difficult to argue with.

The people on board the Axiom, the ship sent into space while the robots like Wall-E cleaned the Earth, were on a trip that was supposed to last for five years. In reality, it actually lasted 700, went through five generations of captains, and would have certainly run out of food years before the events of the movie occurred.

And yet, not only is everyone still being fed, there isn't a person on board who isn't overweight. When you put together two of the biggest issues the ship would have faced over the course of its unexpectedly long journey, namely the disposal of dead bodies and the lack of food, it feels like a foregone conclusion that the ship found an efficient, albeit horrifying solution for both.
