Corrected entry: How are the people of the Axiom able to breathe without any plants to take in any of the carbon dioxide given out by humans, and breathe out oxygen? Recycling air would be impossible.

Wall-E (2008)
Corrected entry: When the Captain is doing the morning announcements, he states how it's the 255,642 day on the Axium making it the 700th anniversary. This can't be true since in 700 years (including leap years) there would be 255,675 days. And if they weren't including leap years (given that on a spaceship allowing for the earth's rotation wouldn't be necessary) there would be 255,500 days.
Correction: This is assuming that they're still using the Gregorian calendar for measuring the number of days in a year (and even then, your figures are incorrect because 1 in every 200 years, the leap year is *not* observed). In the far future depicted in the film, it's possible that humanity has developed a newer calendar.

Wall-E (2008)
Corrected entry: Wall-E only knows the name of the other robot as Eve-a (as he calls her throughout the film), but when lasering their names into the pole, he writes "Wall-E & Eve". Since he never saw her name printed (and never corrected his pronounciation) he should have carved "Eve-a".
Correction: The mispronunciation is not because he doesn't know her name, but because his "voice" has limited capabilities. he can't make a "v" sound without the "uh" after it.

Correction: Why would recycling air be impossible? Submarines, space shuttles, the international space station, etc. all recycle air *today*. the film takes place in a far future.
