Corrected entry: The Law of Conservation of Matter appears not to apply to the Axiom. Large amounts of waste are dumped from the Axiom by the WALL-A robots, but matter cannot be created from nothing. Considering this was originally to be a 5-year cruise, all the supplies would have been consumed long before WALL-E returns 700 years later.

Wall-E (2008)
Corrected entry: Wall-E is clinging to the starship and it flies near a star, which allows Wall-E to get a very good charge from it. Sadly, at that distance Wall-E would have melted down and its entire electronics would be fried due to solar radiation. Even being a robot, he was made to work on Earth, not outside it.
Correction: The fact that he doesn't melt down and receives a charge seems to dispute that. There are no specifications shown as to how toughly built Wall-E is.

Wall-E (2008)
Corrected entry: When Wall E and Eva are floating in space outside the space cruiser they have the plant in their hands. As soon as the plant was exposed, it should have died as there is no oxygen in space.
Correction: This is a common misconception. Exposure to space is not instant death. Heat transfer in vacuum is very inefficient and plants do not use oxygen (they give off oxygen). An average living organism can survive for approximately 30 seconds in outer space and Wall-E had the plant out for only 5-7 seconds.

Correction: This overlooks the possibility that the Axiom (particularly its robots) doesn't harvest asteroids or planets automatically to provide raw materials. Order A113 proves that the Earth government knew that Earth might be unsaveable, so the Axiom must have been built knowing that it might never return.
