Oh, that is cool, CGI! :astonished: I never noticed that Pete Sohn cameo! Awesome find! :wink:

#142

Is that orange haired woman in the Mars scene…Renata Linguini?!

#143

I’d say that was a random extra they designed just for the short.

#144

RMSH: I agree with Martin.
Martin: Hey, Martin, is there any art of Renata in The Art of Ratatouille?

#145

On the flip side, that curly-haired redhead boy looks a little like Alfredo Linguini…

#146

A113- No, there isn’t any depictions of Renata in The Art of Ratatouille. I don’t think she was ever going to be on screen so, they didn’t bother designing her.

#147

He is supposed to be Alfredo.

#148

Yeah, I’m pretty sure he is. As a matter of fact, I think they actually modeled all of the guy characters in Your Friend The Rat off of Linguini. At least it seems like it, anyway :stuck_out_tongue:

#149

true dat!^

#150

How do you know? There are other characters in YFTR that look a lot more like Alfredo.

#151

According to to the credits of the short, Lou Romano was part of the cast. He must have voiced the character’s squeals and “hello”.

#152

He did. But I was asking about the character on the Mars bus. :blush:

#153

The same eyes, the baseball cap, the general face shape… I’m pretty convinced. :wink:

#154

Thanks for that, CGI.

See what we’re talking about, LBER and Martin? :wink:

#155

Huh? I agreed with CGI Clownfish! :question: Me & LBER knew it looked like him and probably was him, we just can’t confirm because we don’t work at Pixar. We didn’t really need a pic to see the resemblance, but thanks anyways. See what I’M talking about A113. LOL

#156

Interesting! I didnt notice that before, but then I wasnt looking that hard. It does look like him.

#157

PixarVixen was one of the first to notice the WALL-E cameo, but I never noticed the charicature of Peter Sohn until you guys mentioned it.

Nice spotting! :wink:

Martin: I see. xD
LL9: Yeah, those things are very easy to miss in 2D animation.
Mitch: Where were you? (and welcome back)

#159
