Thanks to all for the kind
words!
Was it my favorite PIXAR movie??? Hard to say, Cars has my heart but Ratatouille was just pure
entertainment that it is going to be a hard pick between the two.
I say 111 minutes is about right, I was
so involved the whole time, it wasnt until after the credits that I was thinking I should have timed the
movie.
Thanks again to everyone, PIXAR does it again!

Pixar does it every time…
You’re welcome,
ROBONICS95! Gosh, I need to see this movie…
Congrats! Glad you had a great time!
Wow, ROBONICS95, it
sounds like you had a lot of fun. Did you talk to any Pixar peoples?
One little thing I left out…
It seems as though
PIXAR has created itself a new little logo.
I was very disappointed when a fully computer
animated “Cars” lost “Best Animated Feature” to a movie with
little to NO animatiion, just pure motion capture generated images (My opinion,
should not even be in the same category).
Toward the end of the credits you will see something along the
lines of “100% Computer Animation. No Motion Capture Involved”
Nice, PIXAR!
Really? You mean they replaced the lamp
jumoing on the “I”?
Neat. But I
thought I read something on Upcoming Pixar that said Pixar had made a featurette on
how they did.
Anyway, thanks for the scoop,
ROBONICS!
No, it was just an added logo that I had not seen in ANY of the credits from previous
PIXAR movies.
That would be very interesting if that article
was correct as PIXAR proudly displays that “No Motion Capture” was involved.
Do you have a link
of that article?
Oh man, now I am really excited for ratatouille. i am
glad you got to watch it
LOL, I like that very much! Go Pixar!
ROBONICS95, I’m so jealous that you watched
the screening of Ratatouille at Pixar!! Man!! lol, I’m happy for you though, and I’m really really glad that
you enjoyed it!! I’m so excited to watch it!
thanks for the review and for telling us about it!! the
merchandise sounds awesome! i can’t wait to see them!
and that must’ve been really cool to be in Pixar and
seeing all the Ratatouille related things and the clay figures/development pictures!!
wow…
lol
and that’s interesting that the put in another logo…
hahaha that’s so awesome!! haha, go
Pixar!!!
Yeah, Cars should have won that award!! They put in so much effort and detail and their story and
everything about the movie was more deserving of it! that was a disappointment…
but we know that
Pixar rocks, and it does!
[SPOILER IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE 9-MIN PREVIEW OR
MOVIE]:
and to bawpcwpn: haha i love your icon/ picture!! i love that scene where
Remy sniffs the soup and he’s all nauseous!! that was way cute!

Glad you enjoyed yourself,
ROBONICS!
I have yet to hear one bad review yet of the film, so this is
veeery promising!
Hilarious!
Anywho, I drove sort of by Pixar
today, on the freeway about half a mile from Pixar headquarters. There are quite a few Ratatouille billboards
around Emeryville. I took a moment of silence to the Pixar people who do great animation, not motion capture…
Yay Pixar!

Motion capture has a strong tendency to look a bit creepy, anyway, especially when used for
the face.
For me,motion capture depends. The Polar Express was
sort of creepy. Monster House made the characters look more cartoony so it didn’t creep me out as much.
ROBONICS95 - How did we forget to ask you this question. Was the Pizza Planet truck
in the movie?

Haha – that’s cute.
And yeah, I’m with JV on this: Did you catch the [i]Pixar
Planet[/i] truck and/or an A113 reference?
Gasduude, did you read the posts afterwards?
PIXAR was more or less ragging on the use of Motion Capture…
Unfortunately, I was so involved in what was going on in the movie that I missed it. I
definitely have an idea of a few scenes it may have been but with all the action taking place during those scenes
I can see why.

ROBONICS, just a couple of questions I thought of:
What
was the score like?
Were you crying at the end, like at the end of Monsters, Inc.?
Do you think it
will win the Oscar?
