When will we see the first theatrical Ratatouille trailer?

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · November 21, 2006, 2:38am

[b]I know some of this might have already been talked about but I made a new topic anyway.

I think we will see the first theatrical trailer for Ratatouille in early February when the SuperBowl is

on, February 4th to be exact. Because Cars had a TV spot for the SuperBowl last year so why shouldn?t

Ratatouille?

When do you guys think we will see the first theatrical trailer for Ratatouille?

Hmm…that’s a good speculation: The Superbowl. I never would have thought of

that. And yes, they did show a couple of Cars trailers made specifically for that

occassion; they were quite funny, actually.

Me? I estimate that a new

Ratatouille trailer will be released sometime around Christmas, perhaps with the

film Charlotte’s Web…which will be airing in cinemas this December.

Side-Note - As a side note, I

would also like to mention that Charlotte’s Web (the book and the film) both

feature a rat named Templeton (who, of course, happens to be my favorite character). Since there is a fuzzy

rodent in the movie, perhaps they will pay tribute to this by showing a new

Ratatouille trailer? We may never know until we know… (heheh)

Super Bowl’s way too far away.

Christmas is more likely.
Summer 07 is very crowded with lots of blockbusters, so Disney will start the

marketing early.

The_Star_Swordsman · November 21, 2006, 2:42pm

I hope soon. I get anxious every day.Maybe we will see it

as a preview 6 months before the movie is actually realeased.

That’s not the only connection Templeton has with Pixar. Templeton is voiced

by the superb (and handsome ) Steve Buscemi, and he also voiced Randall Boggs and once said that he would

be very, very pleased to return to Pixar one day.

Mitch · November 21, 2006, 8:33pm

lizardgirl - Ahh…yes. How could I possibly forget that?

I rather wonder whether Mr. Buscemi will voice a minor character in

Ratatouille? True, he has not even been mentioned; however, it is a possibility,

especially seeing that he wouldn’t mind returning to Pixar in the near future.

The_Star_Swordsman · November 24, 2006, 11:38pm

I wonder. What will the new theatrical trailer feature?

Mitch · November 24, 2006, 11:44pm

[b]The Star

Swordsman[/b] -

Probably a little bit of everything, I imagine:

Snapshots of Paris

(the Eiffel Tower included, of course)

Glimpses of the sewers
A peak at Remy’s family, perhaps

Insights into previously “un-talked” about characters

At least, that’s what I hope it contains

– heheh.

Groaning · November 25, 2006, 4:46pm

I’m pretty sure, we’ll see Auguste Gusteauo and Linguini.

CountSolo · November 25, 2006, 6:03pm

I’ve actually had this question for quite a while now, so here it

goes…

Has it actually been confirmed that the name of the fat, brown rat in the trailer is Rollie? I’ve

never seen any official sources that confirms this. I know this might sound crazy, but don’t you think it’s

possible that Linguini IS Rollie? Just a thought.

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · November 25, 2006, 6:34pm

[b]CountSolo: No Rollie name has not yet been confirmed but I just say ?Rollie?

because it easier then saying ? the fat brown rat?.
A few days ago on Wikipedia it said Linguini is was Rollie

but its not on there any more. You might seen this post I did on another topic:[/b]

In the paragraph for the new Ratatouille review it says:

[b]Remy

finds himself paired up with a garbage boy named Linguini in a famous Paris

restaurant. [/b]

[b]Notice it says garbage ?boy? and not ?RAT?. I still think Rollie

is Rollie and the garbage boy is a garbage boy named Linguini not Rollie.

So there?s my opinion on

Rollie.[/b]

The_Star_Swordsman · November 25, 2006, 7:10pm

Have we always thought Linguinie was a boy character, ever since he was introduced to us?

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · November 25, 2006, 7:11pm

[b]TSS: I always

have.[/b]

Mitch · November 25, 2006, 7:17pm

CountSolo - As of yet, the name “Rollie” is just a temporary name for

that “fat brown rat” whom we have seen in the Ratatouille teaser trailer.

So far, his name is just a rumor that has been floating around for some time now. Personally, I hope they change

it. I’ve already seen a Disney character named “Rollie”; however, this is

Pixar and not Disney, and names can’t really be claimed, so…

[b]The Star

Swordsman[/b] - I have also assumed as much. Since we only know about one human character and (at

least) three rats, perhaps some of us are just desperate for more human characters. (snigger)

As of

today, the tally is as such:

Remy -

rat
“Rollie”

rat
Remy’s father -

rat
Auguste Gusteau -

human
Linguini -

human/animal?

Personally, I believe that Linguini is a human. We’ll soon

find out though, won’t we?

Groaning · November 25, 2006, 8:53pm

Probably in the trailer, if Linguini is really such an important

character.

And I think that Linguini is a human, btw.

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · December 30, 2006, 8:50pm

[b]Hey guys did you see the 1st ever Ratatouille TV spot on

Christmas morning? Nothing new it just showed parts of the teaser trailer, I only saw the last part of the TV

spot where Remy?s voice could be heard saying ?Merry Christmas, Eat well and I?ll see you this summer?. That?s

all I heard in the TV spot.

just wanted to drop by and tell you guys. I’ll see you guys

later![/b]

The_Star_Swordsman · December 30, 2006, 9:35pm

Oh wow, I missed that. What channel did you see that? And what time did the TV spot show?

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · December 31, 2006, 11:01pm

[b]TSS: I saw it on ABC at a commercial brake for the Walt Disney parade.

[/b]

Mitch · January 1, 2007, 4:48am

JV - Ahhh! No way! Maybe they’ll show it again tomorrow during the Rose Parade?

I can’t believe I missed that! Thanks for making me jealous – and thanks for letting us know, as well,

JV.

JV_IS_TIZ_PIXAR · January 1, 2007, 7:10am

[b]Yeah

maybe![/b]
