For those who may be unaware of the availability of audio description in movie theaters:

WALL*E is audio described, albeit by a human, not an Apple voice.

Movie auditoriums that are properly equipped can play the DVS (Descriptive Video Service) sound track to WALL*E. For theater locations, other audio described movies and an explanation on how it all works, go to:

It would be nice if Apple could incorporate audio description, or
whoever produced the movie.
Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage, Alaska.  We could simply access it by
using the Menu commands and arrowing till we find Video Description,
or something like that.

I had to chuckle many times throughout the Pixar animated "Wall-e"
because it featured many voices that were clearly Macintosh
voices. Many of them were pitched down but were easily
recognizable to anyone using VoiceOver. Also, whenever Wall-e
rebooted himself, the Macintosh boot chime sounded. Very cute.
