The highest level of GENIUS


Found this comment on The Pixar Blog, and wonder what does it take for a visually stunning film to have even the visually handicapped community who can see none of the images appreciate its genius?

Is there a way we can find out if the DVD or BlueRay release will have the DVS track included? I'm blind, and I love the Pixar films. If you're wondering why, it is simply the story, every time. But, this movie specifically requires description. DVS stands for Descriptive Video Service. Pixar contracts the Media Access Group at WGBH Boston to create the descriptive narration for theatrical use. It so far has never made it to a Pixar home video release, despite the begging and pleading of many of us who simply can't visibly see their genius. I would hope that they would include the descriptive track for this film if no others, simply because the entire thing short of a few scenes on the ship will be lost on a visually impaired audience.

WALL-E Bluray/DVD out TODAY!
