Something I always loved about this movie is how it actually really taught a lesson that resonated with me in a way that generally most media can't do. Often "lessons" in media feel a bit superficial to me but the way Ego wrote out the review it really took a lesson most people have grown up hearing in some way about not judging a book by its cover and expanding on it to say great things can appear behind any cover and preconceived opinions on that cover cannot stifle that greatness. So it's not just don't judge a book by it's cover but also don't hold back on your dreams just because you think other people don't think you can achieve them or are judging you for trying.
@@DivusMagusthe internet hasn’t made everyone a critic. It’s given the critics a platform to be heard more easily and efficiently. They were always there.
There is a theory that the old lady at the beginning is Ego's mom and the reason the Ratatouille dish transports Ego to his childhood is because Remy basically learned to cook from watching Ego's mom/using the same recipes that she did. I think it makes a lot of sense!
I don't think that makes sense. Ego has enough money to invest in Linguini's business and help them build their own restaurant but leaves his mother to live in dilapidated cottage in the countryside all by herself? It doesn't make sense and feels like trying to make concrete "this is why x" theories rather than take the movie on an emotional level that simply talks how certain things can hit us. Movies should not be treated like math equations where X needs Y to equal Z. There is no "reason" based in logic that the ratatoullie hit Ego other than on an emotional level.
Ego never visits his mom then somehow Ego loves his mom and cherishes her in his memory? and leaves her to live alone in improvished lifestyle? Also houses were different and Mabel (old woman) and Ego's mom had different look. Ages of Gustaeu, Mabel and Ego won't make sense in that regard. I think that doesn't make any sense. If Mabel was Ego's mom that will make Ego worse person in my eyes and it also makes Remy's genius cooking, gifted special smell skills more bland. We saw Remy was improving dish because of his cooking skill and special smelling ability, and if he just copied Mabel's dish then Remy's not that special anymore.
@@c-puff It's a fun theory is all. It doesn't make anything "better" just an interesting connection that could be true, because animators like to leave in easter eggs even if they are never stated outright in the movie, and sometimes there are details that are remnants of original plot points that get removed, so you never know. Besides, I never thought of her house as dilapidated (until she destroyed it, lol). And why would Ego need to buy her a place if she has a place to herself that she has lived in for so long? It would be his childhood home basically. So I think it makes plenty of sense still. Otherwise, it could have all been a happy coincidence that Remy picked the perfect dish to remind Ego of his childhood, and that is fine too.
For the part when Linguini gets wet, one of the animators dressed in a chef outfit and jumped into the pool at Pixar, to use as reference for how one would look like when being wet in a chef's outfit, with the tranlucency and which part of the clothes gets stuck on the skin.
And when they went to Paris for research, they actually found the pest control shop that Remy’s Dad shows him and it’s just like how it was in the movie.
This is my comfort movie. It’s just so cozy. The color palette, soundtrack, setting, overall theme and messages.. i just love it all. It’s like warm soup on a cold day for me.
same!! had the privilege to walk around France pabellion at Epcot, the ambience music and the aroma of fresh baked bread... it was raining too, felt like this movie always feels 🖤
@@Abbyssma I love the new France pavilion in Epcot! I went this past January and picked up a crepe and ate it under a streetlamp as the sun set... it was magic.
This is my favorite Pixar movie precisely because of this! My comfort movie. To think all those years ago I almost didn't watch it because I thought the ads looked dumb. How many times must I learn this lesson? Don't judge a book/movie/etc by it's cover.
One of the first recipes I learned in culinary school was Ratatouille. It's as tasty as it looks in this movie, pure perfection. Gusteau character is inspired by Paul Bocuse, one of the most important Chefs in modern gastronomy. I loved this movie years before I became a chef and pastry chef. It perfectly shows how passionate chefs are regarding food, ingredients, and techniques.
I also learned how to prepare this dish but i didn't like it at all 😭 I had high expectations but it just tasted like salty vegetables with dirt lmaoo Im sure we did something wrong but our teacher told us it was supposed to taste like that 😹
@TheDaringPastry1313 yeah, we did like a stew. It's not like it looks on the movie. The thing is that in the movie a stew wouldn't look stylish enough like in the confit byaldi version of Ratatouille.
Gusteau is in fact, not inspired by Bocuse, but by Bernard L'oiseau, another incredibly famous and mediatized French Chef who took his own life in a bout of depression after losing a Michenlin Star on his namesake restaurant.
Yes, absolutely From Lawrence of Arabia to animated Food Critic. (Yet to actually see Lawrence of Arabia, but I know it's his biggest film) with so many other amazing films.
The camaraderie between you guys is just beautiful! I looved watching you be worry over Remy at the beginning, like when he fell to the water inside the bottle, your reaction was awesome, when Remy was caught, Dave had his hand on his head xD loved everything, loved you conversation at the end about childhood food and laughed a lot with you! Thanks guys!
The Oak’s talk about not judging people’s dreams immediately reminded me of one of my favorite quotes from Greta Gerwig’s Little Women - “Just because my dreams are different from yours doesn’t mean they’re unimportant.” Said by Meg March, about to get married to a poor man she loved dearly, to her sister Jo who wanted to be a famous writer and wanted Meg to run away and become an actress on the stage. Loved this reaction, love this movie, love you guys ❤️❤️
Ratatouille is Top Shelf Pixar. Right there with the best of them. I love love love this movie. Anton Ego was voiced by the legend Mr. Peter O'Toole. Also, in EPCOT they now have a Ratatouille ride. It's a ton of fun and does a great job of putting you inside the movie.
The main reason that the other cooks (beside Colette who did change her mind after being reminded of Gusteau's motto "Anyone can cook") left was that they thought that Linguini was insane and that they thought there was no hope to please Ego and therefore save the resturant's reputition, it was akin to sailors abandon ship before it starts sinking.
This film is a loving ode to creativity and artistry and the power it has on us as human beings. It can give us purpose, transport us, and even give us something to judge and make sense of. And it’s perfect.
Not gonna lie, the grandma gunslingin on rats is the most crazy and gangsta thing I've seen in a Pixar movie 😂😂😂😂. Also, Pixar movies like to tease future projects in their films. The silhouette of the dog was actually that tease. It's the model of Doug from Up
Bird was attracted to the film because of the outlandishness concept and the conflict that drove it: that rats feared kitchens, yet a rat wanted to work in one.
As a child i actually only listened to the CD and never watched the movie because I didn’t even know there was one. I thought its just the audiobook. So when i was chilling with my nieces the other day we decided to watch a movie, they chose Ratatouille. I didn’t think much of it. When it started and i recognized the voices and the story seemed familiar to me i almost started to cry lol. I felt like a child watching their favorite story for the first time! It made me so happy watching your guys‘ reaction :)
Theres a crazy fan theory about how Remy managed to make Ratatouille exactly how Ego remembers as a kid: The old woman at the beginning is Ego’s mother. People have compared images of her house to the house in the flashback and noticed that they look pretty similar. Also, if Remy spent so much time learning to cook by watching the old woman, then her being Ego’s mother would explain how Remy could make Ratatouille exactly the same
One thing to keep in mind with Pixar movies: every movie, the team challenges themselves to create/develop something new. If you watched their movies in order it may be more apparent. But at the time Ratatouille came out, water physics and animation was sub-par in CG. This was their first movie they made that really delved into water physics. That may be why it seems to well done to you. Each movie they make introduces a new foray into some CG advancement. That is one of the core ideals behind PIXAR.
And it's also something to keep in mind when watching their short films that usually play before the main feature in theaters. Their shorts are always meant to test out new technologies that are gonna be on full display in the film we're about to watch, or on their next film. Like Geri's game, which came before A Bug's Life, was testing out human modeling and rigging technologies they were gonna use for Toy Story 2, with Geri himself appearing in that film.
I thought Finding Nemo was the movie where they delved into water physics. If anything, this movie is the one where they experimented with how to make CGI food look as appetizing as the real thing.
This was one of my favorite movies, especially because of how accurately the animation team represents professional kitchens. Also, whenever I smell scrambled eggs, bacon, refried beans, and tortillas it makes me think of my family and my home! Saturday breakfasts were the best!
The animators shadowed Thomas Keller at his acclaimed restaurant, French Laundry, to get the kitchen scenes and menu right. The ratatouille served at the end is also his recipe, which you can get at the French Laundry website. 😊
I love this movie. I had pet rats as a kid and they are the sweetest animals. My one rat Chucky used to sit on my shoulder like Pikachu and hang out with me all the time. This movie just brings me back to my childhood, and the comedy is fantastic.
My favorite Pixar movie! Love the setting, the look, the music and the story. The ratatouille in the movie you see is not the traditional presentation of the dish. It's usually chopped up and looks more like a stew. The style in the film is called confit byaldi and it's a fancier version that chef Thomas Keller actually put together for this movie. Also Pixar always hints at upcoming movies in their movies. This movie was in 2007 and UP! was in 2009 - 7:51 was Doug from UP!
One thing ill add to the aftertalk; Remi did not judge Emile, he wanted to show and expose the person he is the closets to, to something he loved and he thought might share in his passion for it, but he was ok when it was not his thing. Who of us that really burns for something does not try to talk about it with those closest to you. A good friend or family even if they do not have the same interest will still be interested in your passion and let you talk and share about it. 💛
This moment has a name in France (I'm a french woman). We call that " une madeleine de Proust " which is something who reminds us memories of our childhood. It came from the french writer, Marcel Proust, who write in one of his books, a moment where after eating a madeleine, the MC remembers when he went to his aunt's house, as a child, and the fact she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea
My favorite Pixar movie period. It’s really structured more like an independent film and yes, emotionally it’s not as intense as other Pixar but it’s the most contemplative for a Pixar
53:10 There’s actually a French dish called Hachis Parmentier, which is basically that, mashed potatoes with ground beef. It’s very tasty, and if that sort of thing is a comfort food for you, you should definitely try and look up a recipe!
The animation was indeed amazing. Even that little moment when Remy get's a piece of cheese from Linguini the first time, he's almost eye popping which is a rat "I'm so cosy and love this" thing! I bred fancy rats for years so I'm obviously biased but I LOVE this movie 🥰
@gavinshirley they come in all colours and patterns with curly fur, larger 'dumbo' ears, naked(never bred those though as they have health issues). They're are also super smart and you can train them like a dog(UA-cam rat tricks, they're adorable!)
This is my favourite Pixar movie of all time. It means a ton to me for personal reasons and as an artist. I feel everything they say, the joys and the struggle. I still think this kind of story is where Pixar shines most. When in the end it's a small confined slice of life story with a unique perspective and fantastic twist.
17:13 as an Italian I am trying my best not to yell at you 🤣 too much love for ya! Please don’t break it, put it in and as it softens, usually takes a few seconds, you can shove the rest in ❤
@@elizabitty213at least like use proper utensils to cut the dried pasta before you use it in a small pan, and not waste any of it, I presume?
@@iamarizonaball2642 no cutting at all. You can fan out the spaghetti like around the pot, all around it if you have to and after a few seconds, the bottoms softens enough that you can shove the whole thing in 🤓
I love rats, I've had a few pet ones, and they really caught their movements perfectly. The eyes and noses of the rats in the film are obviously incorrect, but it works a lot better this way for expressing emotions in a way that's easy for humans to interpret. It's a nice change to see a film that doesn't treat rats as evil pests. Rats are cute and clever and absolutely hilarious little creatures, so it's great that people get to see that side of them too, even if it is in an animated movie. (I am aware that wild rats can be very destructive too, and cause a lot of problems for people. I'm not trying to say they're complete saints who can't cause any trouble. Far from it tbh! They are little chaos potatoes.)
I thought the critic's voice sounded familiar but mistook him for another. According to my brother, Peter O'Toole voices that character (I checked, and he was correct). It's such a sweet little film.
Great reaction guys. The amazing voice for Anton Ego was Peter O'Toole. He was from the same era as Christopher Lee and Ian Mckellen and just as great. Hes also in 2 of my favourite films, Troy (2004) and Stardust (2007). If you guys havent seen them, i highly recommend them. One is lighthearted and fun, the other is bloody and epic. I'll let you decide which is which😁👍
I forgot he was in Stardust! I just finally saw Lawrence of Arabia which was so epic and really cinematically ahead of its time -- highly recommend -- but one I have always loved that I grew up watching is How To Steal A Million 😊
fun fact, the exterminator's shop at 24:19 is a real shop in Paris. It's Maison Aurouze "Service d'extermination des nuisibles", and they do display dead rats
Great reaction guys ! In France, when food brings us back to our childhood (because we used to eat it as a kid), we have an expression "Madeleine de Proust". Proust was a famous French writer ; in one of his books, his character used to eat madeleine as a child. Several years later, as an adult, he eats a madeleine, and it brings him back to his childhood (just like Ego in Ratatouille). When you eat, many years later, food you ate as a kid, it's more than just the taste and the smell of the food itself. It's about the past, about memories, about your family, about the places you used to go to. Hi from Northern France btw :)
Rats are great! Very intelligent and very dextrous creatures and they do have quite the variety of personalities, too. As someone who's owned pet rats for quite some time now, I gotta say: This movie did a really good job animating how rats actually move, too! Plus it's true that they LOVE food and can be quite picky about it (even though in a pinch they can eat a whole lot of things) and even that they can be quite resentful if you wrong them until you win them back over (food helps a lot with that). Also, they can be fucking FIERCE if they feel the need to fight which Delta Team going after the inspector is a great representation of in a weird way haha
They're also trained to find victims trapped in debris as well as sniff out mines. Certain species may not live long but they are absolutely worth having
What delightful film this was to watch! The look on Quinn's face at 1:55 😆 & that banter with you all at 12:57-13:26 was funny! What Quinn said about "knowing your path & not living your life for somebody else to make them happy & feel that's what ya have to do, eventually you have to fly & do your own thing" that advice REALLY resonates with me as that's exactly what I was doing in my life in the past, so it was really nice & very heartwarming to hear those words from Quinn, they meant alot to me & thank you so much.❤❤
I have to tell story 😊 A couple of years back, my daughter's brother-in-law (Who is a pretentious chef) Came to our house for dinner. To be honest, there was several unexpected guests. So, I had some beef stroganoff Hamber Helper in the cupboard and I got to cooking to add to my meal. I've always added extra touches like sour cream and mushrooms. He is the type of chef that likes to brag.... I didn't tell the unexpected guests that I had added "Hamburger Helper" to the menu lol knowing him, I was playing Devils Advocate 😉 Not only did he eat it, he went back for a large seconds 😅 and was telling me how good it was and was my recipe 🥰 When I told him it was just Hamburger Helper... the look on his face 😂 You would have literally thought I'd severed him Rat Sh¿t 😂😂😂 it made him mad and he sulked the rest of the evening... I still laugh my ass off when I think of this ❤ Thanks for the opportunity to share this story guys
I hope I’m not the only one who noticed Dug’s Shadow from “Up” to this day??? 7:53 😯 IT IS a Pixar Animation movie!?🤔 Loved the reaction by the way, one of my favs❤️
Favorite part is that they mass-sanitized Remi's family in the steamer thing and no one seems to have reported any sickness from that night at Gusteau's so it clearly worked 🤔
Great reaction! Love your commentary. Funny story about this movie, when it was in theaters I was a child and begged my mom to take me to go see it. My sister came with us and not even half way through they wanted to leave bc the thought of rats in a restaurant freaked them out 😅 understandable but I just thought Remy was so cute as a kid
You've got to hand it to whoever wrote Ego's character. He was set up right from the start as the villain but it was Skinner, Ego was just a pessimist. You can see from the scene when he writes the review, he knew that when Ratgate would come out that it would ruin his career and he still told the raw uncensored truth of his experience. Then when the Restaurant was closed by the Health Inspector he came to their rescue and invested the money for a new one. In regards to the decision of what to serve him, it makes so much sense. All of his career chefs have been serving Ego their most fancy and inventive dishes and he didn't love almost any of it. To serve him a home cooking style dish was an inspired move.
Man... every time I click on one of y'alls videos, be it reactions, or gameplays, I always sing "Your love is like Bad Medicine, Bad Medicine is what I need," in my head. As always, great reaction guys!
As a foodie (as most of us are) this is one of my favorite animated films. It's quite a niche setting but delicious animation, acting, and message. oh, and delicious food :)
Caught a release super early! LOVE IT!!!! Just about to start but so happy you guys chose this one! This is how I break you guys down Answer: Loves to rewatch and watch reactions of his friends. Though he hasn't seen all they have, he had a head start. Mason: Breaks down movies really well into what strikes him at the time and has really great energy. Oak: Genuine reactions and though he hasn't seen a majority of the stuff, he always goes in with an open mind. Diamond Dave: He is a mix between all 3, but his smile and enjoyment really peeks when he starts adding the commentary. I love you all and keep doing what you are doing!
Peter O'Toole’s most famous role was Lawrence, in Lawrence of Arabia, in 1962. It's a true history, a film masterpiece, and an acting tour de force. It was meticulously restored for its 50th anniversary re-release in 2012. The restoration process was led by Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. I’d love to see you react to it.
Anton Ego was played by the great Peter O'Toole. "The Stunt Man" is an overlooked gem of his, "My Favorite Year" and "The Lion in Winter" are great. He's one of the generation of great actors that came up post-war in England, along with Richard Burton and Richard Harris.
When Remy was running in the ceiling durin the beginning. The scene where he dropped into an apartment; there is a theory that the dog was Doug from up!!
I remember having watche this in the movie theater when I was a kid, it´s honestly one of my favorite childhood memories. Not only did I love the movie, but also I wanted to learn how to cook. So afterwards, my mom started teaching me how to make omelettes and scrambled eggs and such. I do love Ratatuille, it´s such a nice film
Skinner is voiced by late Sir Ian Holm who famously played Old Bilbo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, and Ash the Android in Alien and Alien: Isolation video game (in the game's bonus modes which reacreates scenes from the original movie).
I'm a french woman and I'm always proud when a movie takes place in France. If you watch it in french, I have two fun facts for you : Colette's gesture was inspired by the french chief, Hélène Darroze, and her french voice is the singer of the song we can hear during the movie. Also, what happened to Ego, after eating, is what we called " une madeleine de Proust "
I would love to see you guys react to "A silent voice". It's such a great an emotional movie, that for whatever unknown reason lost at the oscars to Boss Baby. I think it would be especially nice for Oak, since he loves to talk about life lessons and stuff :D
I also really like the scene where we see Remy squeaking at Emile in front of the old lady. It's such a simple scene, yet an excellent way of establishing to the viewer that the rats aren't actually speaking English. I always break my spaghetti in half. The noodles are too large to fit in the pot otherwise.
Nooooooooo, don't break it, drop it into the pot and within 30-40 seconds the submerged part becomes soft enough that you can easily submerge the rest with a little stirring.
@@Eagle3302PL That may be so, but I also don't need the noodles to be longer than they are when snapped in half. Even when snapped in half, I sometimes find myself biting them instead of slurping them up. Not to mention that I'm so used to it after so many years, it would completely throw off my measurements.
This is actually my favorite Pixar movie, which might be an unpopular opinion but I stand by it! Was so fun watching you guys react to this, can't wait to see what's next!!!
In the eye of an Italian, it's a sin to break your spaghetti or any other type of pasta before putting it in boiling water. I learned that the hard way, and now I never break my pasta before adding it to the water.
all the cooks left not because working with a rat is unclean (I mean it's probably a part of it) but it's more because Linguini had been lying to them the whole time and it would hurt, especially to Colette.
This movie is one of our favorites. I admit, y'all had me convinced the voice was Ian McKellen. 🤣 I kept envision Gandalf as the critic! 🙄 My food memory trigger is fried chicken (my Mama and my grandma, every Sunday). Or, for weekdays, it was pintos, cream potatoes and homemade biscuits...my mama made the best around! Again, awesome review and comments. ❤️
When Diamond Dave was talking about the rats living in the studio my mind immediately thought about older Disney movies like Lion King and they had real lions at the studio and they had deer at the studio for Bambi.
there are 4 types of movie lover 1] have already watched it and can find even the little unnoticable hilourios jokes 2] fallows the destinations that developers intended to or want watchers to do the same thing and help others to understand 3] the serious one who focuses on main plot but very sensetive compared to others 4] never watched the movie but knows little about it and gives alternate options or predicts the ending
Knoedeln are my childhood comfort food, I recently pestered my dad to teach me how to make them, he's a wonderful example of anyone can cook, no experience in any kitchen that wasn't his own and he has so much knowledge! Plus lately he's been on a personal mission to revive his mom's recipes from his childhood (they're quite simple, as they were a not well-off family in the German countryside in the 60s, but they're quite comforting), and then I learn them from him, I'm very happy that we can keep her memory alive together like that.
Finally (I'm 2 days late)!!! I loove this movie! I remember watching it first during high school years ago and being so emotional at Ego's review. I watched it numerous times already and realized new things from it especially now that I am working. I was inspired by Remy in many ways. But Ego, who was supposed to be the antagonist of the story, also taught me how to be open to a lot of ideas and other people's creativity in my younger years. Your insights were spot-on! I also love the talk about certain foods which brings back some good memories.
I say to you that as a french woman, but Ego's flashback after eating is something we called, in France, " une madeleine de Proust " which is something who reminds us memories of our childhood
@@a.g.demada5263 wow, thank you for this info! This is off topic but may I ask if this is connected to Marcel Proust's writings? I remember reading about it (tea and Madeline).
@@Mika-zb3qh that's it, it's a reference of one of his books where the MC eats a madeleine and remember when he went on his aunt's house as a child during summer, and she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea. It became one of ours expressions since then and it can be anything
Re: the animators studying the rats. Walt Disney did that for his animators, brought in animals for them to get familiar. I've seen footage of them with deer for Bambi.
Still my favorite Disney movie. Pure enjoyment, the visuals of food, the comedy, the relationships. Just a fantastic time, plus it gets you real hungry😅😅
people love this movie so much that fans on tiktok made a musical out of this during the pandemic and actually got some pretty big names involved in the project like Adam Lambert who currently is the lead singer of Queen
You guys hit the nail on the head this cannot be compared to Up or CoCo it is not the same but I still like it. I trudelt loved you guys talking about food memories. Such a great reaction guys ❤
Is there a specific food aroma that transports you back to your childhood? Where does this animated film rank for you? What was your reaction? What did we miss?

Food? Not really. But cigarettes, yes. Cigarettes and coffee will always take me back to my childhood. My father had the breakfast of champions.
Sloppy Joes, it's the food that my Grandma gave me that got me to finally eat and enjoy meat.
@@mimic1984 🤮 Onions and peppers? Yuck. I refused to eat those as a kid.
@@John_Locke_108She didn't make her SJ with either of those, everything but those.
This movie is a masterpiece and in therefore a definite 5/5
Fun fact: rats don’t have a uvula, so they don’t have a gag reflex. That means the soup was so bad, it broke the rules of nature
i knew this little fact, but never really put 2 and 2 together, so this comment made me lmao
I bet you’re fun at parties.
Copied comment
the way this is always a top comment on any ratatouille reaction lmao
@@Abdul_Mateen. nope, it’s something I discovered when I was looking through my moms old vet textbooks
Ego's review at the end always get me choked up. Such beautiful words
Something I always loved about this movie is how it actually really taught a lesson that resonated with me in a way that generally most media can't do. Often "lessons" in media feel a bit superficial to me but the way Ego wrote out the review it really took a lesson most people have grown up hearing in some way about not judging a book by its cover and expanding on it to say great things can appear behind any cover and preconceived opinions on that cover cannot stifle that greatness.
So it's not just don't judge a book by it's cover but also don't hold back on your dreams just because you think other people don't think you can achieve them or are judging you for trying.
@@marslara Yes definently a unique morale in a movie and honestly very fitting in today's world, where the internet has made everyone a critic.
@@DivusMagusthe internet hasn’t made everyone a critic. It’s given the critics a platform to be heard more easily and efficiently. They were always there.
@@SusanaCanales1 yea you right.
Brad Bird is a genious.
I like Oak's point about Emile just being happy the way he is. Not everyone wants to "hustle" 😁
Yep! Love Emile :D
Lol Remy yelling at Emile while he's stuffing his face is the dynamic me and my mum have when she makes me go on a diet
There is a theory that the old lady at the beginning is Ego's mom and the reason the Ratatouille dish transports Ego to his childhood is because Remy basically learned to cook from watching Ego's mom/using the same recipes that she did. I think it makes a lot of sense!
This is correct. You can clearly see in Ego's flashback that the house in the beginning of the movie is the house in his flashback.
Oh my god how have I not heard of this 😲
I don't think that makes sense. Ego has enough money to invest in Linguini's business and help them build their own restaurant but leaves his mother to live in dilapidated cottage in the countryside all by herself? It doesn't make sense and feels like trying to make concrete "this is why x" theories rather than take the movie on an emotional level that simply talks how certain things can hit us.
Movies should not be treated like math equations where X needs Y to equal Z.
There is no "reason" based in logic that the ratatoullie hit Ego other than on an emotional level.
Ego never visits his mom then somehow Ego loves his mom and cherishes her in his memory? and leaves her to live alone in improvished lifestyle? Also houses were different and Mabel (old woman) and Ego's mom had different look. Ages of Gustaeu, Mabel and Ego won't make sense in that regard.
I think that doesn't make any sense. If Mabel was Ego's mom that will make Ego worse person in my eyes and it also makes Remy's genius cooking, gifted special smell skills more bland. We saw Remy was improving dish because of his cooking skill and special smelling ability, and if he just copied Mabel's dish then Remy's not that special anymore.
@@c-puff It's a fun theory is all. It doesn't make anything "better" just an interesting connection that could be true, because animators like to leave in easter eggs even if they are never stated outright in the movie, and sometimes there are details that are remnants of original plot points that get removed, so you never know. Besides, I never thought of her house as dilapidated (until she destroyed it, lol). And why would Ego need to buy her a place if she has a place to herself that she has lived in for so long? It would be his childhood home basically. So I think it makes plenty of sense still. Otherwise, it could have all been a happy coincidence that Remy picked the perfect dish to remind Ego of his childhood, and that is fine too.
For the part when Linguini gets wet, one of the animators dressed in a chef outfit and jumped into the pool at Pixar, to use as reference for how one would look like when being wet in a chef's outfit, with the tranlucency and which part of the clothes gets stuck on the skin.
And when they went to Paris for research, they actually found the pest control shop that Remy’s Dad shows him and it’s just like how it was in the movie.
This is my comfort movie. It’s just so cozy. The color palette, soundtrack, setting, overall theme and messages.. i just love it all. It’s like warm soup on a cold day for me.
Thanks this is how i too feel
same!! had the privilege to walk around France pabellion at Epcot, the ambience music and the aroma of fresh baked bread... it was raining too, felt like this movie always feels 🖤
@@Abbyssma I love the new France pavilion in Epcot! I went this past January and picked up a crepe and ate it under a streetlamp as the sun set... it was magic.
This is my favorite Pixar movie precisely because of this! My comfort movie. To think all those years ago I almost didn't watch it because I thought the ads looked dumb. How many times must I learn this lesson? Don't judge a book/movie/etc by it's cover.
One of the best animated movies to come out in the 2000s!! Excited for this reaction
One of the first recipes I learned in culinary school was Ratatouille.
It's as tasty as it looks in this movie, pure perfection.
Gusteau character is inspired by Paul Bocuse, one of the most important Chefs in modern gastronomy.
I loved this movie years before I became a chef and pastry chef. It perfectly shows how passionate chefs are regarding food, ingredients, and techniques.
But that was confit byaldi, not technically the same dish. Ratatouille is traditionally a stew.
I also learned how to prepare this dish but i didn't like it at all 😭
I had high expectations but it just tasted like salty vegetables with dirt lmaoo
Im sure we did something wrong but our teacher told us it was supposed to taste like that 😹
@TheDaringPastry1313 yeah, we did like a stew. It's not like it looks on the movie. The thing is that in the movie a stew wouldn't look stylish enough like in the confit byaldi version of Ratatouille.
@lex8437 lol it shouldn't supposed to taste like that. It's quite tasty, but you do have to like vegetables though.
Gusteau is in fact, not inspired by Bocuse, but by Bernard L'oiseau, another incredibly famous and mediatized French Chef who took his own life in a bout of depression after losing a Michenlin Star on his namesake restaurant.
I kept screaming at the screen, "Its Peter O'toole!" 😂 That man had such a marvelous voice.
Lol right!? His voice is so distinctive and recognizable to me ever since the first movie I saw him in & that was High Spirits.
Ngl, I always used to think it was Patrick Stewart.
Yes, absolutely From Lawrence of Arabia to animated Food Critic. (Yet to actually see Lawrence of Arabia, but I know it's his biggest film) with so many other amazing films.
Unmistakeable.
I just watched Thomas Kinkades Christmas Cottage and my God that man was a gem.😢
The camaraderie between you guys is just beautiful! I looved watching you be worry over Remy at the beginning, like when he fell to the water inside the bottle, your reaction was awesome, when Remy was caught, Dave had his hand on his head xD loved everything, loved you conversation at the end about childhood food and laughed a lot with you! Thanks guys!
😁🤜🤛
The Oak’s talk about not judging people’s dreams immediately reminded me of one of my favorite quotes from Greta Gerwig’s Little Women - “Just because my dreams are different from yours doesn’t mean they’re unimportant.” Said by Meg March, about to get married to a poor man she loved dearly, to her sister Jo who wanted to be a famous writer and wanted Meg to run away and become an actress on the stage.
Loved this reaction, love this movie, love you guys ❤️❤️
That film is on our list to watch :)
@@BaddMedicine I’m thrilled to hear that! Can’t wait for your reaction, I hope you guys love it!
I love this movie. I’m a cook, and as a woman that has been working on kitchens for years and I can’t express how this movie just touches my heart 💞
RIP to the late Peter O'Toole who voices Anton Ego. Who also appears in the movie Troy.
Ratatouille is Top Shelf Pixar. Right there with the best of them. I love love love this movie. Anton Ego was voiced by the legend Mr. Peter O'Toole.
Also, in EPCOT they now have a Ratatouille ride. It's a ton of fun and does a great job of putting you inside the movie.
I work at a restaurant and the cooks play the soundtrack to this movie to set the mood. I love it
The main reason that the other cooks (beside Colette who did change her mind after being reminded of Gusteau's motto "Anyone can cook") left was that they thought that Linguini was insane and that they thought there was no hope to please Ego and therefore save the resturant's reputition, it was akin to sailors abandon ship before it starts sinking.
Just the visual of ego eating that ratatouille and his reaction to it, is so stunning and a beautiful moment.
Someone call the Doctor because Badd Medicine is back!
😤Goated intro
That line will NEVER get old
@@DTLions26 it’s just a intro 😐
@@DTLions26it’s ok. When you grow up a bit more stuff will not make you cringe so easily. It’s a faze most of us grow out of.
‘Clears throat’… Somebody*😂 jk best intro though!
This film is a loving ode to creativity and artistry and the power it has on us as human beings. It can give us purpose, transport us, and even give us something to judge and make sense of.
And it’s perfect.
Not gonna lie, the grandma gunslingin on rats is the most crazy and gangsta thing I've seen in a Pixar movie 😂😂😂😂. Also, Pixar movies like to tease future projects in their films. The silhouette of the dog was actually that tease. It's the model of Doug from Up
I thought it looked familiar, thanks 😊
also there's a scene where linguini shows his underwear and you can see the incredibles symbol on it
One thing I love so much about this movie is how amazing the physical comedy is... it's so well animated
That's one of the reasons Brad Bird wanted to work on this movie. He loved the potential physical comedy with Linguini
Oh the comedic timing of the jumpcut back to Linguini soaked after he dove into the river to get Remy is hysterical🤣🤣🤣
Bird was attracted to the film because of the outlandishness concept and the conflict that drove it: that rats feared kitchens, yet a rat wanted to work in one.
This movie inspired me to branch out and actually cook things i was uncomfortable with beforehand.
I love the cooking scenes in this movie. They just feel soooo warm and comforting
As a child i actually only listened to the CD and never watched the movie because I didn’t even know there was one. I thought its just the audiobook.
So when i was chilling with my nieces the other day we decided to watch a movie, they chose Ratatouille. I didn’t think much of it. When it started and i recognized the voices and the story seemed familiar to me i almost started to cry lol.
I felt like a child watching their favorite story for the first time!
It made me so happy watching your guys‘ reaction :)
I never knew that only had it in audio but this is an awesome memory!
Theres a crazy fan theory about how Remy managed to make Ratatouille exactly how Ego remembers as a kid: The old woman at the beginning is Ego’s mother. People have compared images of her house to the house in the flashback and noticed that they look pretty similar. Also, if Remy spent so much time learning to cook by watching the old woman, then her being Ego’s mother would explain how Remy could make Ratatouille exactly the same
Ego's monologue at the end always warms my heart.
One thing to keep in mind with Pixar movies: every movie, the team challenges themselves to create/develop something new. If you watched their movies in order it may be more apparent. But at the time Ratatouille came out, water physics and animation was sub-par in CG. This was their first movie they made that really delved into water physics. That may be why it seems to well done to you. Each movie they make introduces a new foray into some CG advancement. That is one of the core ideals behind PIXAR.
And it's also something to keep in mind when watching their short films that usually play before the main feature in theaters. Their shorts are always meant to test out new technologies that are gonna be on full display in the film we're about to watch, or on their next film. Like Geri's game, which came before A Bug's Life, was testing out human modeling and rigging technologies they were gonna use for Toy Story 2, with Geri himself appearing in that film.
@@JiReyAnimationBounding shows off hair physics used for Incredibles
@@JiReyAnimation And people praise the fire animation in Elemental so Pixar is still ahead of their game.
I thought Finding Nemo was the movie where they delved into water physics. If anything, this movie is the one where they experimented with how to make CGI food look as appetizing as the real thing.
@@ninakrishnamurthy6674 Nope. Finding Nemo uses almost zero water physics. Just one shot of Marlin above water and a few things in the dentist office
This was one of my favorite movies, especially because of how accurately the animation team represents professional kitchens. Also, whenever I smell scrambled eggs, bacon, refried beans, and tortillas it makes me think of my family and my home! Saturday breakfasts were the best!
Mmm that sounds delicious! I'd have bad gas all day after eating it though :P
The animators shadowed Thomas Keller at his acclaimed restaurant, French Laundry, to get the kitchen scenes and menu right. The ratatouille served at the end is also his recipe, which you can get at the French Laundry website. 😊
I love this movie. I had pet rats as a kid and they are the sweetest animals. My one rat Chucky used to sit on my shoulder like Pikachu and hang out with me all the time. This movie just brings me back to my childhood, and the comedy is fantastic.
My favorite Pixar movie! Love the setting, the look, the music and the story. The ratatouille in the movie you see is not the traditional presentation of the dish. It's usually chopped up and looks more like a stew. The style in the film is called confit byaldi and it's a fancier version that chef Thomas Keller actually put together for this movie. Also Pixar always hints at upcoming movies in their movies. This movie was in 2007 and UP! was in 2009 - 7:51 was Doug from UP!
please keep forcing/dragging diamond dave out of his office to keep react with you guys 😄
I appreciate this! More to come 🤜🤛
One thing ill add to the aftertalk; Remi did not judge Emile, he wanted to show and expose the person he is the closets to, to something he loved and he thought might share in his passion for it, but he was ok when it was not his thing. Who of us that really burns for something does not try to talk about it with those closest to you. A good friend or family even if they do not have the same interest will still be interested in your passion and let you talk and share about it. 💛
When the food takes Anton back to his childhood it always gets me haha
This moment has a name in France (I'm a french woman). We call that " une madeleine de Proust " which is something who reminds us memories of our childhood.
It came from the french writer, Marcel Proust, who write in one of his books, a moment where after eating a madeleine, the MC remembers when he went to his aunt's house, as a child, and the fact she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea
My favorite Pixar movie period. It’s really structured more like an independent film and yes, emotionally it’s not as intense as other Pixar but it’s the most contemplative for a Pixar
53:10 There’s actually a French dish called Hachis Parmentier, which is basically that, mashed potatoes with ground beef. It’s very tasty, and if that sort of thing is a comfort food for you, you should definitely try and look up a recipe!
The history of Chef Boyardee is very interesting which makes Ego's comparison even more interesting.
The animation was indeed amazing. Even that little moment when Remy get's a piece of cheese from Linguini the first time, he's almost eye popping which is a rat "I'm so cosy and love this" thing! I bred fancy rats for years so I'm obviously biased but I LOVE this movie 🥰
I have never heard of rat breeding.
@gavinshirley they come in all colours and patterns with curly fur, larger 'dumbo' ears, naked(never bred those though as they have health issues). They're are also super smart and you can train them like a dog(UA-cam rat tricks, they're adorable!)
This is my favourite Pixar movie of all time. It means a ton to me for personal reasons and as an artist. I feel everything they say, the joys and the struggle. I still think this kind of story is where Pixar shines most. When in the end it's a small confined slice of life story with a unique perspective and fantastic twist.
17:13 as an Italian I am trying my best not to yell at you 🤣 too much love for ya!
Please don’t break it, put it in and as it softens, usually takes a few seconds, you can shove the rest in ❤
He might be using a really small pan 😬🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤣🤣
@@BaddMedicine oooooh maybe! Well then I will say, large pans are your friend sir and remember anyone can cook! 👨🍳 hehe 😉
@@elizabitty213at least like use proper utensils to cut the dried pasta before you use it in a small pan, and not waste any of it, I presume?
@@iamarizonaball2642 no cutting at all. You can fan out the spaghetti like around the pot, all around it if you have to and after a few seconds, the bottoms softens enough that you can shove the whole thing in 🤓
@@elizabitty213 ah, didn’t think of that.
42:50 The Oak just casually explaining Little women plot. "Just because my dreams are different than yours doesn't mean their unimportant"
I love rats, I've had a few pet ones, and they really caught their movements perfectly. The eyes and noses of the rats in the film are obviously incorrect, but it works a lot better this way for expressing emotions in a way that's easy for humans to interpret. It's a nice change to see a film that doesn't treat rats as evil pests. Rats are cute and clever and absolutely hilarious little creatures, so it's great that people get to see that side of them too, even if it is in an animated movie.
(I am aware that wild rats can be very destructive too, and cause a lot of problems for people. I'm not trying to say they're complete saints who can't cause any trouble. Far from it tbh! They are little chaos potatoes.)
I thought the critic's voice sounded familiar but mistook him for another. According to my brother, Peter O'Toole voices that character (I checked, and he was correct). It's such a sweet little film.
Absolutely stoked, another Pixar gem.
Great reaction guys. The amazing voice for Anton Ego was Peter O'Toole. He was from the same era as Christopher Lee and Ian Mckellen and just as great. Hes also in 2 of my favourite films, Troy (2004) and Stardust (2007). If you guys havent seen them, i highly recommend them. One is lighthearted and fun, the other is bloody and epic. I'll let you decide which is which😁👍
Ugh LOVE Stardust so much. Ian McKellen is also “in” it as the narrator! Such a lovely movie
I forgot he was in Stardust! I just finally saw Lawrence of Arabia which was so epic and really cinematically ahead of its time -- highly recommend -- but one I have always loved that I grew up watching is How To Steal A Million 😊
fun fact, the exterminator's shop at 24:19 is a real shop in Paris. It's Maison Aurouze "Service d'extermination des nuisibles", and they do display dead rats
Great reaction guys !
In France, when food brings us back to our childhood (because we used to eat it as a kid), we have an expression "Madeleine de Proust".
Proust was a famous French writer ; in one of his books, his character used to eat madeleine as a child. Several years later, as an adult, he eats a madeleine, and it brings him back to his childhood (just like Ego in Ratatouille).
When you eat, many years later, food you ate as a kid, it's more than just the taste and the smell of the food itself. It's about the past, about memories, about your family, about the places you used to go to.
Hi from Northern France btw :)
Rats are great! Very intelligent and very dextrous creatures and they do have quite the variety of personalities, too. As someone who's owned pet rats for quite some time now, I gotta say: This movie did a really good job animating how rats actually move, too!
Plus it's true that they LOVE food and can be quite picky about it (even though in a pinch they can eat a whole lot of things) and even that they can be quite resentful if you wrong them until you win them back over (food helps a lot with that). Also, they can be fucking FIERCE if they feel the need to fight which Delta Team going after the inspector is a great representation of in a weird way haha
They're also trained to find victims trapped in debris as well as sniff out mines. Certain species may not live long but they are absolutely worth having
What delightful film this was to watch! The look on Quinn's face at 1:55 😆 & that banter with you all at 12:57-13:26 was funny! What Quinn said about "knowing your path & not living your life for somebody else to make them happy & feel that's what ya have to do, eventually you have to fly & do your own thing" that advice REALLY resonates with me as that's exactly what I was doing in my life in the past, so it was really nice & very heartwarming to hear those words from Quinn, they meant alot to me & thank you so much.❤❤
I have to tell
story 😊
A couple of years back, my daughter's brother-in-law
(Who is a pretentious chef)
Came to our house for dinner. To be honest, there was several unexpected guests. So, I had some beef stroganoff Hamber Helper in the cupboard and I got to cooking to add to my meal. I've always added extra touches like sour cream and mushrooms. He is the type of chef that likes to brag.... I didn't tell the unexpected guests that I had added "Hamburger Helper" to the menu lol knowing him, I was playing Devils Advocate 😉
Not only did he eat it, he went back for a large seconds 😅 and was telling me how good it was and was my recipe 🥰 When I told him it was just Hamburger Helper... the look on his face 😂 You would have literally thought I'd severed him Rat Sh¿t 😂😂😂 it made him mad and he sulked the rest of the evening... I still laugh my ass off when I think of this ❤ Thanks for the opportunity to share this story guys
Anton Ego is voiced by Peter O'toole, a great and legendary English actor.
13:38 iIt always drove me nuts when Linguini calls oregano a spice - It's not a spice, it a HERB!!! Edit: Sorry, passionate nutrition lover here.
I hope I’m not the only one who noticed Dug’s Shadow from “Up” to this day??? 7:53 😯 IT IS a Pixar Animation movie!?🤔 Loved the reaction by the way, one of my favs❤️
10:34 best part about that is rats are incapable of gagging or throwing up. The smell of the soup was so bad it broke the rules of nature.
I like his eyes at that moment 😂
Favorite part is that they mass-sanitized Remi's family in the steamer thing and no one seems to have reported any sickness from that night at Gusteau's so it clearly worked 🤔
I don't know how I missed this in the lineup, so very excited!!! Love it, love it, love it ❤
I never noticed before - but the dog's shadow at 7:53 is Doug from "Up"!
Great reaction! Love your commentary. Funny story about this movie, when it was in theaters I was a child and begged my mom to take me to go see it. My sister came with us and not even half way through they wanted to leave bc the thought of rats in a restaurant freaked them out 😅 understandable but I just thought Remy was so cute as a kid
You've got to hand it to whoever wrote Ego's character. He was set up right from the start as the villain but it was Skinner, Ego was just a pessimist. You can see from the scene when he writes the review, he knew that when Ratgate would come out that it would ruin his career and he still told the raw uncensored truth of his experience. Then when the Restaurant was closed by the Health Inspector he came to their rescue and invested the money for a new one.
In regards to the decision of what to serve him, it makes so much sense. All of his career chefs have been serving Ego their most fancy and inventive dishes and he didn't love almost any of it. To serve him a home cooking style dish was an inspired move.
Man... every time I click on one of y'alls videos, be it reactions, or gameplays, I always sing "Your love is like Bad Medicine, Bad Medicine is what I need," in my head. As always, great reaction guys!
It would be awesome if Bon Jovi would let's us or give us a great deal to distribute that song 🤣🤘
As a foodie (as most of us are) this is one of my favorite animated films. It's quite a niche setting but delicious animation, acting, and message. oh, and delicious food :)
Caught a release super early! LOVE IT!!!! Just about to start but so happy you guys chose this one! This is how I break you guys down
Answer: Loves to rewatch and watch reactions of his friends. Though he hasn't seen all they have, he had a head start.
Mason: Breaks down movies really well into what strikes him at the time and has really great energy.
Oak: Genuine reactions and though he hasn't seen a majority of the stuff, he always goes in with an open mind.
Diamond Dave: He is a mix between all 3, but his smile and enjoyment really peeks when he starts adding the commentary.
I love you all and keep doing what you are doing!
Peter O'Toole’s most famous role was Lawrence, in Lawrence of Arabia, in 1962. It's a true history, a film masterpiece, and an acting tour de force. It was meticulously restored for its 50th anniversary re-release in 2012. The restoration process was led by Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. I’d love to see you react to it.
Anton Ego was played by the great Peter O'Toole. "The Stunt Man" is an overlooked gem of his, "My Favorite Year" and "The Lion in Winter" are great. He's one of the generation of great actors that came up post-war in England, along with Richard Burton and Richard Harris.
Diamond Dave's "Go fix your house" got me🤣
Fun fact : in the minute 7:53 the shadow of the dog is from the dog in the movie up (Dug)
When Remy was running in the ceiling durin the beginning. The scene where he dropped into an apartment; there is a theory that the dog was Doug from up!!
ratatouille is the movie that made me IN LOVE with cooking as a child
7:53 That was Dug’s shadow by the way! From UP! 😊
One of my favourite movies. My childhood movie and just the perfect movie to just watch anytime and appreciate it.
Fun fact: France has over 1000 kinds of cheese. Apparently, they like it.
Also, the right cheese absolutely works with strawberries.
Fun fact: strawberries can actually pair very nicely with Brie cheese in particular. Try it!
Ahhh, so glad you reacted to this! My FAVORITE Pixar movie.
I remember having watche this in the movie theater when I was a kid, it´s honestly one of my favorite childhood memories. Not only did I love the movie, but also I wanted to learn how to cook. So afterwards, my mom started teaching me how to make omelettes and scrambled eggs and such. I do love Ratatuille, it´s such a nice film
Seen this movie many times. Just now realized the adult reference of her sipping the spoon then quickly looking down at him with him smiling.
Skinner is voiced by late Sir Ian Holm who famously played Old Bilbo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, and Ash the Android in Alien and Alien: Isolation video game (in the game's bonus modes which reacreates scenes from the original movie).
loved this movie as a kid and even in french class we watched it in french, it actually fit perfectly.
I'm a french woman and I'm always proud when a movie takes place in France.
If you watch it in french, I have two fun facts for you : Colette's gesture was inspired by the french chief, Hélène Darroze, and her french voice is the singer of the song we can hear during the movie.
Also, what happened to Ego, after eating, is what we called " une madeleine de Proust "
I would love to see you guys react to "A silent voice". It's such a great an emotional movie, that for whatever unknown reason lost at the oscars to Boss Baby.
I think it would be especially nice for Oak, since he loves to talk about life lessons and stuff :D
I also really like the scene where we see Remy squeaking at Emile in front of the old lady. It's such a simple scene, yet an excellent way of establishing to the viewer that the rats aren't actually speaking English.
I always break my spaghetti in half. The noodles are too large to fit in the pot otherwise.
Nooooooooo, don't break it, drop it into the pot and within 30-40 seconds the submerged part becomes soft enough that you can easily submerge the rest with a little stirring.
@@Eagle3302PL That may be so, but I also don't need the noodles to be longer than they are when snapped in half. Even when snapped in half, I sometimes find myself biting them instead of slurping them up. Not to mention that I'm so used to it after so many years, it would completely throw off my measurements.
The rat killer shop does exist in Paris, complete with stuffed rats in traps and all.
I boil my spaghetti noodles whole and stir them occasionally to keep them from sticking.
This is actually my favorite Pixar movie, which might be an unpopular opinion but I stand by it! Was so fun watching you guys react to this, can't wait to see what's next!!!
In the eye of an Italian, it's a sin to break your spaghetti or any other type of pasta before putting it in boiling water. I learned that the hard way, and now I never break my pasta before adding it to the water.
all the cooks left not because working with a rat is unclean (I mean it's probably a part of it) but it's more because Linguini had been lying to them the whole time and it would hurt, especially to Colette.
was waiting for someone to mention Dug from "Up" at 7:53 but no one caught it! 😅
This movie is one of our favorites.
I admit, y'all had me convinced the voice was Ian McKellen. 🤣 I kept envision Gandalf as the critic! 🙄
My food memory trigger is fried chicken (my Mama and my grandma, every Sunday). Or, for weekdays, it was pintos, cream potatoes and homemade biscuits...my mama made the best around!
Again, awesome review and comments. ❤️
When Diamond Dave was talking about the rats living in the studio my mind immediately thought about older Disney movies like Lion King and they had real lions at the studio and they had deer at the studio for Bambi.
there are 4 types of movie lover 1] have already watched it and can find even the little unnoticable hilourios jokes 2] fallows the destinations that developers intended to or want watchers to do the same thing and help others to understand 3] the serious one who focuses on main plot but very sensetive compared to others 4] never watched the movie but knows little about it and gives alternate options or predicts the ending
Knoedeln are my childhood comfort food, I recently pestered my dad to teach me how to make them, he's a wonderful example of anyone can cook, no experience in any kitchen that wasn't his own and he has so much knowledge! Plus lately he's been on a personal mission to revive his mom's recipes from his childhood (they're quite simple, as they were a not well-off family in the German countryside in the 60s, but they're quite comforting), and then I learn them from him, I'm very happy that we can keep her memory alive together like that.
Finally (I'm 2 days late)!!! I loove this movie! I remember watching it first during high school years ago and being so emotional at Ego's review. I watched it numerous times already and realized new things from it especially now that I am working. I was inspired by Remy in many ways. But Ego, who was supposed to be the antagonist of the story, also taught me how to be open to a lot of ideas and other people's creativity in my younger years. Your insights were spot-on! I also love the talk about certain foods which brings back some good memories.
I say to you that as a french woman, but Ego's flashback after eating is something we called, in France, " une madeleine de Proust " which is something who reminds us memories of our childhood
@@a.g.demada5263 wow, thank you for this info! This is off topic but may I ask if this is connected to Marcel Proust's writings? I remember reading about it (tea and Madeline).
@@Mika-zb3qh that's it, it's a reference of one of his books where the MC eats a madeleine and remember when he went on his aunt's house as a child during summer, and she always gave him one after dipping it in her tea.
It became one of ours expressions since then and it can be anything
Rats are physically incapable of vomiting. Yet Remy still wants to throw up when he smells Linguini's stew. That's how BAD it is.
Awesome to have all 4 of you guys!
Re: the animators studying the rats. Walt Disney did that for his animators, brought in animals for them to get familiar. I've seen footage of them with deer for Bambi.
Watched this movie with my entire family, in Sweden, when I was eleven years old.
Loved all of it. It's a great piece by Brad Bird.
16:16 Poor little guy. He was starving.
Still my favorite Disney movie. Pure enjoyment, the visuals of food, the comedy, the relationships. Just a fantastic time, plus it gets you real hungry😅😅
people love this movie so much that fans on tiktok made a musical out of this during the pandemic and actually got some pretty big names involved in the project like Adam Lambert who currently is the lead singer of Queen
You guys hit the nail on the head this cannot be compared to Up or CoCo it is not the same but I still like it. I trudelt loved you guys talking about food memories. Such a great reaction guys ❤
When my mom used to make hamburger helper we always had slices of wonder bread w/ butter to go with it
