The Rotoscopers continue with their Mice & Rats podcast series by reviewing one of Pixar's most critically acclaimed films: Ratatouille.

Highlights

Main Discussion: Ratatouille (2007) First thoughts and recollections of the film.

Chelsea can't get over the fact that the main character's a rat. Morgan and Mason love it. Morgan's experience searching for ratatouille, then being terribly disappointed with its taste. Our love for Anton Ego: the antagonist who has a change of heart at the end.

The pre-Monsters University lighting/rendering really shows. Animation tropes: "This is me" narration opening and firearms not running out of ammo until you need it. Anton Ego's transformation and final monologue. Crappy knock off time! Ratatoing!

Mail bag: Logan, Joshua K., Tom, Drew
