Love Me

Love Me has an intriguing concept. In the world after human extinction, a buoy falls in love with a satellite. To be together, they review historical accounts of humanity and create avatars of themselves, played by Steven Yeun and Kristen Stewart.

The idea may remind you somewhat of the plot of Wall-E, where we are compelled to root for the success of robot romance. Love Me was screened at Sundance a year ago and has middling reviews, so the execution may not quite live up to the idea. Releasing a movie in January doesn't inspire that much confidence, but I certainly enjoyed the trailer. Love Me opens in theaters on January 31. (via Gizmodo)
