Fun Fact: Rats are physically incapable of gagging. So in the part where Remy runs by the soup, Linguini ruined it so much, that it broke the laws of physics! Also, I love this film. Truly Pixar's magnum opus, and a message of inspiration to any artist.
During the pandemic, some random people on Tik Tok wrote songs for an imagined "Ratatouille" musical...and some of the songs were so good that a bunch of Broadway actors decided to actually perform it. It was brilliant.
God I love this movie. One thing I enjoy is that Collette tells Linguini to 'Not be mommy' and yet what gets to Ego is that Remy's cooking reminds him of his mother. Anton Egp is so interesting to me as a character, his speech about passion and criticism gets to me too
@@RedRoseSeptember22 I remember earing somewhere that food is excellent when it reminds us our mom's. Also, as a french, I can tell that Ego's flashback is what we called " une madeleine de Proust " meaning something (not only food) who reminds us our childhood
The whole line is "Anyone can cook, but not everyone should." It takes a certain kind of dedication. It's why I'll always be a home chef, and never a restaurant chef. I can't cook good food under a time crunch, but I'll make you the best breakfast you've ever had, if I have enough time.
I was happy to see you picked up on the rat cam stuff instantly, the handheld style when Remmy is running on the ground and such. This movie is shot like a real movie, with "real" fake cameras. That's why Brad Bird is so well regarded in animation. He directed the crap out of these movies. Even the Iron Giant is very distinctly "shot' like a live action movie with real world "constraints".
My exact thoughts. The way it’s directed like if a camera is following Remy on those action shots is beautiful. Such a well directed film, not to mention the soundtrack is lovely as well.
The scene about Ego eating the Ratatouille and then being reminded of his mother has a very deep meaning. 1st the food reminded him of his mother's cooking. 2nd it also reminded Ego of why he loved food so much in the first place: His starting point, and why he became a food critic in the first place. It was probably to find food that has his mother's taste and flavours again. Or he came to love food so much because of his mother. As a grown Asian man that had married and moved out of my parents' house because I got a home of my own, I do still miss my mother's cooking sometimes. There are things from your youth you take for granted that as you get older, you start to miss them.
I had that idea too : food is considered as delicious when it reminds us our mother's cooking. By the way, what happened to him is what we call in France " une madeleine de Proust "
@@dmetri4205 mine's speciality was pumpkin soup. But what reminds me of her is the odor of her perfume (we kept the empty bottle after her death) who has the smell of rose
The theory is that the old lady from the beginning is Ego's mom. It makes sense when you realize that Remy had access to her specific spice rack and favorite recipes that she would cook for herself. Remy had the exact knowledge to impress Ego, because he learned from Ego's own mother (in a roundabout sort of way).
I heard an "extended version" of this theory. The Old lady is also Gusteau's mother that makes Gusteau and Ego brothers. Gusteau was thought to be mother's favourite child. (Maybe that's why she's always watching Gusteau's tapes? It is the only physical memory left after her favourite son? I'll write about the reason later.) Both boys had passion for cooking but only Gusteau succeeded, maybe Ego didn't because he had low self-esteem because of childhood experiences? Ego decided not give up on food industry completely and decided to be a critic. When Gusteau's, a well known chef, learned that his brother is a well known food critic, he invited him to his restaurant to rate his food. Ego saw it as a chance for personal revenge for him being "the worse son", even though Gusteau was never aware of it, and rated the food badly no matter its actual quality what made Gusteau's restaurant loose a star. When Gusteau learned that the rating wasn't based on the food quality but on something from their childhood that he would react to and stand to his brother's side *if he only knew* and felt really sorry for his brother, Gusteau got depression or other bad psychic disorded and commited su1c1de. That made Ego think that he had no rational reason to be that harsh and unprofessional towards his brother, and because of mourning after his brother's death (maybe as a personal act of honouring him) he decided to be professional to the marrow what ended in him being a harsh critic pointing out even simpliest, smallest mistakes.
Fun fact: Contrary to popular belief, rats are suprisingly clean animals as they groom and clean themselves multiple times a day and are less likely to transmit diseases and parasites that dogs and cats can.
You can actually make ratatouille in different versions like the vegetable way, or even apple way, with apple slices and other varieties it’s a very interesting dish
Will never forget seeing this when I was 12. I got out of church and saw it after, and it has been a favorite of mine ever since. Even inspired my love for cooking that I have today.
This movie helped remind me about my love of cooking. It inspired me to get back into it after almost ten years of kinda not doing anything more expressive than cheap ramen and egg dishes. Don't get me wrong, I still do those even now, but now I am making them even more complex and trying to create new flavour profiles that I and everyone I feed will enjoy. And I owe it all to the end of the movie, with what everyone knows now as the Ratatouille Moment.
This one was a real sleeper. It went under a lot of people's radars when it came out, but I'm glad people are discovering it anew. It's really wholesome, and the ending gets me every time. I'd credit this movie with tempering my criticism of art, music, movies, video games, etc. Great reaction!
Fun fact - Patton Oswalt got offered the voice for Remy after his description of KFC's Famous Bowls, as he was so descriptive in his takedown of it that the Director (I think) took notice. Edit: Apparently it was for Black Angus Steakhouse, and how weird their advertising has become - ua-cam.com/video/kM_xDjhkOU4/v-deo.htmlsi=AYxn34fgGgaMnaxe - and yes, it was Brad Bird that loved his descriptiveness of the food.
I used to watch this everytime I went over to my grandma's when I was needed to be babysitted I had a few films on dvd in like 2008 when I was 6 and this was an awesome movie!
Man I loved this movie as a kid! I am not a fan of rats and I'm even less a fan of them cooking my food, so the fact that the movie made me go past that and made rats somewhat cute is a serious accomplishment in my book.
Just like 'UP" this doesn't need a sequel its perfect as a stand alone movie . ❤ Loved your reaction to both movies. Mello well on your way to 200k deservedly so. So until the next time 💜
We all had a moment where food brought you back. One day, my mom calls me over and tells me to try this rice she got from this restaurant, I ate some suddenly I was back in my abuela's little kitchen, and she was making her special rice, so good you'd clean out the pot. We had lost her the year before so it's what I needed
😂Seeing Mell's reactions to everything was fun & great commentary! The editing was both meme worthy & fitting. Btw, Mel if you haven't seen the theory, the Theorizer speculates that the old lady at the beginning of the movie was Ego's Mom who has been obsessed with Gusteau since he left her for a younger model (Linguine's Mom Renata) & Gusteau "died from a bad review" because the review came from his son Ego.
This movie is a masterpiece. I first watched this movie when I was in high school and it got me use my brain a lot for a kid. This movie is pretty deep.
I was really impressed with how the rats moved; I know the animators spent a great deal of time observing real rats, and it paid off. My favorite scene is the chaotic first time Remy finds his way into the restaurant's kitchen, and Emil coming to and checking himself over after the lightning incident is hilarious. And Anton Ego missed his mark trying to put down Gusteau for reminding him of Chef Boyardee; Hector Boyardee ('Boiardi') was a famous gourmet chef starting in the 1930s and well through the 1960s, though by then he was making most of his income off of pre-made Italian food.
I think that's the point. Boyardee was a highly regarded chef reduced to a brand of cheap canned products just like they were doing to Gusteau. They even compared him to another famed chickeb maker in Colonel Sanders, who was renowned for his amazing fried chicken yet even he admitted KFC's chicken was bland as all hell.
@@billbill6094 Well, that's a possibility I hadn't thought of. Bear in mind, though, that Ego wrote that criticism before Gusteau died and Skinner started to mass-market his name on cheap imitations of the great chef's food.
The kitchen senes are some of the most accurate ever on the screen. The movements are great a the chefs are wearing checkered pants or “checks”. All of the kitchen positions and titles as well. Great movie!
I love this movie. My dad dragged us all to the theatre when it came out, and I’m so glad he did! I also make ratatouille like Ego’s mom (the stew version, not the fancy restaurant version) in the summer when the vegetables are fresh from the garden. It definitely makes everyone extremely happy when it’s on the table
I'm fully convinced that Ratatouille is a certified hood classic movie! I mean think about it: he opens up the movie with the classic "this is me" freezeframe, the whole premise is about Remy making it out the gutter (literally) and still trying to be down with and make his family proud, he had to hide his talents behind a white boy/human lmao and ends the movie by finishing his story in real time having achieved all his goals 😭🤣 I'm telling you it's the hood classic movie formula down to a tee!!! 🫶🐭
I adore this film because it hits close to my heart, I cook for the absolute joy of it and sharing my creativity with friends and family who actually enjoy it. And the moral is a good one to fall back on, that anyone can cook.
Many chefs and people that have worked in restaurants regard this movie as one of, if not *the* most accurate portrayal of what it's like to work in a kitchen. Particularly the scene where Collette is teaching Linguine how to be a proper chef. One of the many reasons why Pixar's movies excel is because they research the hell out of the topics they're making movies on.
That’s… actually a really good way of putting it… it’s of the same quality and atmosphere as one of the short films Disney/Pixar does, but in a full length movie. Never thought of it that way.
that would make ego an awful person who could just go see his mother anytime and doesn't. it only makes sense that his mother has passed away. you can only get that kind of heartfelt and slightly painful nostalgia when someone is gone, the option is not there to experience the way their presence impacts your senses. not everyone has to be related, it cheapens the movie
Pixar was amazing. Company just wasn't the same after John Lasseter left. He was the heart/soul of Pixar, and honestly Disney, he was at the heart of almost everything Disney/Pixar for a generation, and heck was even responsible for the Studio Ghibli/Disney Collaboration.
I hope you can watch the Iron Giant next, it was also directed by Brad Bird the same guy who did Ratatouille and The Incredibles, and trust me Mell it will make you CRY!!!!
I'm gonna assume voice to text did that to Brad Bird, but yes they're the same director. His pixar films seem to be Intentionally made to Not make people cry.
@@TheMarvelousM No i actually f*cked up with his name so you don't have to assume lol, also I know the Pixar movies didn't make people cry I'm talking about the Iron Giant the only NON-Pixar movie that he directed that made people cry.
i think youtube ate my comment so my very first rat his name was Remy after this film. he was a real OG rat and honestly pocket puppies are so smart and beautiful. Thank you for doing this film! ❤❤
Ratatouille is one of my favorite Pixar movies. Remy is a great cook, very enjoyable and has some funny moments. We all have dreams of our own. Anyone can cook 🐀🥘🧀🍓🍇🍝🍷🥹🤣
I work in a Pancake restaurant,and when the Rush Hour begins, the chefs are going crazy with pans, and all other stuff. I have learned to be patient, and the Chef is very happy with me😀
Fun Fact: The outside area in Ego's flashback is the same as the old lady's in the beginning of the film (you can see the stone bridge over the river to the right of kid Anton), meaning that the old lady was mostly likely his mother.
Ratatouille is a French peasant dish, consisting of roasted vegetables. I found it in the frozen section of a grocery store, and added a little grilled chicken alongside it. It was ridiculously delicious.
a good movie for foodies of all ages! sadly on tiktok it shows that a LOT of people cant cook to save their lives, but that wasnt the point of Gusteau's motto, it was that if you put your heart into it, you can be a good cook, you can do anything that your heart desires if you put in the work.
no it wasn't lmfao, did you listen to Ego's review at the end? He said not anyone can be a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. Basically, don't discount someone just because they're poor or rich.
Nooo... you weren't crying about the Pixar movie... :D But yeah, this is great movie too. BTW. you have to try to watch Soul (2020) movie... it kinda bombed but it was due to pandemic and Disney+... but it is great movie too about the purose of life.
Mell! I haven't finished watching your reaction yet, but I am SO GLAD you've discovered my favorite snack! Fruit and cheese is SO good. Play with your favorites and what's seasonal to your area. You can't screw it up!
Ratatouille is indeed a great Pixar movie, but for me, the best Pixar is by far Wall-E. This movie is just amazing, it conveys so much emotions with robots that almost don't talk :D
The reason he chose that dish is because of the lady he was living with in the beginning. It was likely her, so who is the critic. Ans he read her books so in theory he wouls know the recipe. Its also why its probably prepared differently
I was like 4 when my parents and I went to the cinema for this film. It was my first time and when I tell you, after the first kitchen scene where everyone chases after the rat, I ran out the room. My father had to go after me and missed the whole movie while my mother stayed and continued to watch it. HAHAH
The Ratatouille dish in the movie is actually called confit byaldi if you ever want to try it, but the real Ratatouille isn't as symmetrical and more of a stew-like appearance.
I actually saw Ratatouille in the movie theater when it first came out in 2007 I was 8 years old I absolutely love this movie... I love food so of course I get hungry every time I watch this movie or any movie that has food in it... Great reaction MelVerse like always...
Last year while we were on my daughters MakeAWish trip to Disneyworld we went on a ride called Remys Ratatouille Adventure and its like you're a rat running under the kitchen, it was one of our favorites 😂

@@MiArcangellol but that was the joke the movie was making lol why all the hostility
@MiArcangel You feel better now after spreading some negativity? Just absolutely had to right?

no gagging no vomiting. so if they eat something bad it can kill them.
side note: they give rank farts sometimes though holy lord lol

Man, there was a time when Pixar made nothing but S-tier movies. Ratatouille and The Incredibles, all time greats, are just a few of many.
imo Soul is the only recent Pixar movie that actually feels like a Pixar movie (if that makes sense lol)
Soul is definitely one that could have easily fit in with the later golden age of Pixar. (Ratatouille and Up era I mean)@@gabe6495

Well Ego says it best at the end… it’s not that anyone in the world can make a great cook, it’s that a great cook can come from anywhere.
I love that the old lady was still shooting even though the rats were outside the house.😂
I love how she was literally determined to chase them out of town to kill them

Of course. Pixar theories (or any cartoon theory) are some of the dumbest things mankind has ever created.
OMG I was actually thinking if you have already watched this movie while watching your Brave video😂
Pixar was amazing. Company just wasn't the same after John Lasseter left. He was the heart/soul of Pixar, and honestly Disney, he was at the heart of almost everything Disney/Pixar for a generation, and heck was even responsible for the Studio Ghibli/Disney Collaboration.
Ratatouille was one of my favorite movies from my childhood! I'm glad you reacted to this! 🖤🔥
Like the new style ti the intro. It made me not want to skip through it 🔥
WoH, this show takes me back to Culinary class back in the day for me 🥺🛐

I hope you can watch the Iron Giant next, it was also directed by Brad Bird the same guy who did Ratatouille and The Incredibles, and trust me Mell it will make you CRY!!!!
I'm gonna assume voice to text did that to Brad Bird, but yes they're the same director. His pixar films seem to be Intentionally made to Not make people cry.
@@TheMarvelousM No i actually f*cked up with his name so you don't have to assume lol, also I know the Pixar movies didn't make people cry I'm talking about the Iron Giant the only NON-Pixar movie that he directed that made people cry.
…Superman
i think youtube ate my comment
so
my very first rat his name was Remy after this film. he was a real OG rat and honestly pocket puppies are so smart and beautiful. Thank you for doing this film! ❤❤
Awesome reaction of my favorite Pixar movie!!!!😊😊😊😊
Pretty sure that cook book is laminated, because it's meant to be kept in the kitchen where a lot of messy, and staining, accidents can happen.
I came for the Gusteau jump scares!🤣
The way Ego’s pupils gotten smaller at 25:23 is kinda creepy😅
bro
i was not expecting a damn jerma reference in one of your videos of all places
Ratatouille is one of my favorite Pixar movies. Remy is a great cook, very enjoyable and has some funny moments. We all have dreams of our own. Anyone can cook
🐀🥘🧀🍓🍇🍝🍷🥹🤣
I work in a Pancake restaurant,and when the Rush Hour begins, the chefs are going crazy with pans, and all other stuff.
I have learned to be patient, and the Chef is very happy with me😀
Fun Fact: The outside area in Ego's flashback is the same as the old lady's in the beginning of the film (you can see the stone bridge over the river to the right of kid Anton), meaning that the old lady was mostly likely his mother.
Love this movie!! Your reaction had me cracking up! 😂
Ratatouille is a French peasant dish, consisting of roasted vegetables. I found it in the frozen section of a grocery store, and added a little grilled chicken alongside it. It was ridiculously delicious.
It's funny because I'm french but I hate ratatouille 😅
I loved the scratch N sniff stickers that came out for this movie, I used to collect them as a kid
Man I always love your reactions!
31:13
I can only ever see the YTP version of this scene where Linguni has a heart attack because Ego orders egg rolls extremely dramatically
a good movie for foodies of all ages! sadly on tiktok it shows that a LOT of people cant cook to save their lives, but that wasnt the point of Gusteau's motto, it was that if you put your heart into it, you can be a good cook, you can do anything that your heart desires if you put in the work.
no it wasn't lmfao, did you listen to Ego's review at the end? He said not anyone can be a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. Basically, don't discount someone just because they're poor or rich.
20:33 - 20:38
I like the part where he combines this scene with part of the trailer
Nooo... you weren't crying about the Pixar movie... :D
But yeah, this is great movie too.
BTW. you have to try to watch Soul (2020) movie... it kinda bombed but it was due to pandemic and Disney+... but it is great movie too about the purose of life.
This was a blast watching it in the theater.
Mell! I haven't finished watching your reaction yet, but I am SO GLAD you've discovered my favorite snack! Fruit and cheese is SO good. Play with your favorites and what's seasonal to your area. You can't screw it up!
9:30
Holy hell that caught me off guard 😂
Ratatouille is indeed a great Pixar movie, but for me, the best Pixar is by far Wall-E.
This movie is just amazing, it conveys so much emotions with robots that almost don't talk :D
Got them editing skills on point! Had me dying bro. Merry Christmas, keep up the great content!!
Strawberry with cheese made me think of cheesecake when I tried it 😂
Finally you get to watch my childhood movie
My wish for 2024: please give the Star Trek franchise a chance.
And peace on earth.
@@Texbun2 As much as I appreciate him, I don't think it's within his power.
@@martinbraun1211 HA! Okay I will keep my expectations to Star Trek all of the movies....
As a kid, I thought it was okay. As an adult, I think it's one of Pixar's top 5!
The reason he chose that dish is because of the lady he was living with in the beginning. It was likely her, so who is the critic. Ans he read her books so in theory he wouls know the recipe. Its also why its probably prepared differently
I’m so beyond happy you enjoyed this !
PLEASE REACT "SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMARRON" or DISNEY'S "TARZAN"!!! 🤩🔥💕
I was like 4 when my parents and I went to the cinema for this film. It was my first time and when I tell you, after the first kitchen scene where everyone chases after the rat, I ran out the room. My father had to go after me and missed the whole movie while my mother stayed and continued to watch it. HAHAH
This is my personal favorite Pixar film and my pick for best film of 2007
You did it! You didn’t cry during a Pixar movie!!
The Ratatouille dish in the movie is actually called confit byaldi if you ever want to try it, but the real Ratatouille isn't as symmetrical and more of a stew-like appearance.

The Mount Rushmore of Pixar films:
Toy Story (as an entire franchise)
Up
Ratatouille
Finding Nemo
I actually saw Ratatouille in the movie theater when it first came out in 2007 I was 8 years old I absolutely love this movie... I love food so of course I get hungry every time I watch this movie or any movie that has food in it... Great reaction MelVerse like always...
Last year while we were on my daughters MakeAWish trip to Disneyworld we went on a ride called Remys Ratatouille Adventure and its like you're a rat running under the kitchen, it was one of our favorites 😂
The editor for this video is hilarious
