The WALL-E DVD contains two deleted scenes, which is rare for Pixar. In each case, Stanton recognized late in the process that the respective scenes didn't fit with the overall picture. "We have more of what you'd expect a deleted scene to be than the other movies," he said. "A lot of people don't realize that we only animate a section of a film when we know it's working. It's so expensive to animate it. At least we recognized it and we fixed it. We just fixed it so much later than we're used to."
