This movie was a huge misstep for Pixar. Absolutely dreadful garbage.
How so? Without any justifications and denials I shall make the true claim that you are an Indian and a tranny.
>>151870368Don't.
It gave us Colette so it's a good movie

One of the worst Pixar movies. Pinkava wrote a dull story with boring characters and an unappealing premise. Bird was brought late in development so he could salvage it, but he was unable to. Lasseter was too busy taking over WDAS and trying to save Meet the Robinsons, so he was unable to do much for Ratatouille either. This was made right during Disney's adquisition of Pixar, so development was a bit of a mess. It shows, cause there's a lack of polish to the writing, pacing and characterization here that you didn't find in other Pixar films at the time.

>>151870368You prefer The Good Dinosaur? Cars? The fifth sequel of Toy Story?Ratatouille isn't even close to being one of the worst Pixar films.
>>151872413The Good Dinosaur was good.
>>151870368I stand with you, this movie was total shit.
>>151870368I never got the Pixar hype. The comparisons with Ghibli exist to prove that the Oscars have bad taste and also to elevate the pitiful content of Pixar films to an artistic level. In the end, they make a product. A very entertaining one. But it's like watching something from a third-rate Hollywood director (Ron Howard) instead of the original (Spielberg). Pixar would be better with smaller budgets and riskier premises. I think the D+ content farm ended up giving the studio more leeway to break out of that stilted format that was occasionally broken up by a Brad Bird project.
>>151872413The Good Dinosaur actually has a moral lesson to tell, the point of Ratatouille is "gluttony is good".
>>151873363Totally agreed except for the Brad Bird part. His only good film at the company was first The Incredibles, and even with that in mind, it wasn't his best movie, that was The Iron Giant for Warner.
something something Ayn Rand
Shrek the Third made more cash than Ratatouille back in 2007. Not surprising, since it's a more entertaining film (especially in some dubs).
>>151873369Lies and deceptions! A hot woman didn't get Architect-tier fat in that movie, so gluttony wasn't good!
POST IT
>>151873369The point of Ratatouille is that "anyone can cook". Ratatouille is only great due to the Ego segment and narration at the end.
>>151870488/thread
>>151873369>Film literally states its message at the end>Retards still don't get the moral of the story.
>>151874843It wasn't at the beggining of the movie?
>>151870368This movie began the trend of the Oscars automatically awarding Disney “best animated feature” almost every year until the last few years.
post it
>>151874923Another reason on why to hate this movie.
>>151874531Why does the ending have the guy giving up on his dream of being a cook to serve tables for a rat born gifted?
>>151875184Linguine never wanted to be a chef, he just wanted a steady job to make ends meet and inadvertently became a chef after accidentally taking credit for Remi's cooking. Nigger you should watch the movie instead of criticizing it based on clips you saw on youtube.
>Iron Giant : Main character is a child>Incredibles : Most characters are adults, but there's still Dash, Violet and Jack Jack, plus some young minor characters like Kari>Ratatouille : Every single character is an adult. Not a single child to be foundBird officially lost his heart here. No Pixar movie shouldn't have kids in it
Ratatouille is a hard movie to like. It's got too much of a high opinion of itself, yet it's a heavily flawed movie. This is why humble writing is important in animation. Audiences embrace and connect more with humble films. They don't like that feel of pretentiousness while at the cinema.
>>151875408>No Pixar movie shouldn't have kids in itExcept A Bug's Life, Finding Nemo (no some fucking background characters don't count), Cars, or Wall-E?>inb4 those movies all suck!Oh and Turning Red, Luca, the Good Dinosaur, Toy Story 4, and Brave are good movies all of a sudden?
>>151875453You just described Wall-E
>>151875408There's no pivotal kid characters in Wall-E and that's in their top 3 easily.
>>151874385>>151874928This isn't /tv/, retards
>>151870368Ratatouille is easily a top 5 Pixar movie. Probably #3 after Toy Story and The Incredibles.
>>151875507Wall-E was great. Unlike Ratatouille. Don't try to be a contrarian so hard.
I'd be willing to bet that 90% of this thread is one person samefag spamming. Exact same opinion and writing style.Thanks hiro for getting rid of the IP counter!
Looking back, Meet the Robinsons was the best CG film of 2007. Unlike Ratatouille, it manages to leave a good message while also being entertaining, creative and humble ( Ratatouille is dull, unimaginative and has its head far up its ass )https://youtu.be/JlkBbb7SKyA
>>151875768Wall-E is unironic oscar bait and goes down immensely in quality the moment the narrative shifts to Humanity's bullshit. Should have just played it straight with the Robot Romance.
>>151870368only in terms of the art style. everything else was tremendouswell, except the inevitable issue with any of this kind of movie where 'actually animals are sentient, but nobody is aware of it despite centuries of carefully studying them for signs, and no explanation or excuse as to why we think it's okay to just trap and kill them'I don't think there is a solution to that. we just want talking animals in movies and that doesn't make any fucking sense, so..
>>151875849>Wall-E is unironic oscar baitAnd Ratatouille wasn't?
Ratatouille ain't 96% good. Just RT blowing things out of proportion again.
Even Bird seems to acknowledge that he sorta missed the mark with Ratatouille, since he hasn't directed more original animation films since. Even if you like the film, it's hard to deny that it's easily Bird's weakest animation screenplay. It's not nearly as tight or well written as Iron Giant and Incredibles' screenplays. Lots of awkward interactions and not particularly funny jokes.
>>151875494Nemo and Dot are kids
>>151870368Agreed. The movie itself is boring as fuck. The idea of making food tasting an orgasmic sensation is cringy. The rat is annoying as fuck. The lanky loser is an outright scumbag that goes gaga with the slightest taste of money. The romance between him and the tsundere tomboy is terribly unrealistic. The Jafar midget is just a moustsche twirling baddie with the character depth of a piss stain. The only thing good was the soundtrack, very relaxing although maybe too much stereotipically french.
>>151875849We're not talking about Up, anon.
>>151876310Based, Up is only praised because of it's first five minutes.
>>151876310>>151876316Honestly, it really bothered me that in that time people were praising Up to the extreme, saying it was the new Pixar masterpiece, that "Pixar did it again", and all that tiresome shit, while diminishing Ice Age 3 for being "just a silly comedy and nothing more". Another proof that the influence of Pixar movies in the CGI sphere was an awful disaster for the perception of animation.
>>151875752This. Ratatouille is PEAK
>>151872413I might actually prefer The Good Dinosaur to Ratatouille. It's boring but at least it looked good, and it made me feel like I was watching something of mild importance. Ratatouille is nothingness made manifest.
>>151874843Its message is stupid and the entire plot exists solely to disprove it. The amount of contrivances required for this to make even a shred of sense is astonishing, like the food critic ignoring his life's work and just coincidentally having been served that specific meal, in that exact way, possibly with the exact ingredients to creat the same experience, I mean jesus fucking christ.
>>151877532Because no movie has ever used coincidence before and coincidences don't happen in real life. Garbage critique for a kids fantasy film.
>>151877637Eventually the contrivances pile up to the point where there's no plot. It's just random nonsense happening. Pixar and Disney were never this retarded since the renaissance.
Merry Christmas, /co/Have some Egg nog.
>>151874877At the end of the movie it is refined into not everyone has the talent to become great at an art, but a talented person can come from anywhere.
>>151876310>>151876316>It only is praised for the first 5 minutesEvery retard that says this haven't watched the rest of the film
>>151877532>like the food critic ignoring his life's work and just coincidentally having been served that specific meal, in that exact way, possibly with the exact ingredients to creat the same experienceOh fuck off with this criticism. The ratatouille wasn't the key meal. Remi could have literally picked any meal so long as it was a common folk dish Ego had in his youth of which there are hundreds. Ego had his flashback because it was a meal that tasted like his mom used to make, with honest to god effort and care. That's what caused Ego to be overcome with nostalgia, not the fact it was ratatouille, but because it tasted how he remembered it tasting as a kid. If it was just the fact it was ratatouille he'd have had his flashback the moment he saw the dish.
