...Which is exactly why I don't bring mine to church!


You all may recall that same word is used in Walt's own Sleeping Beauty.


I don't have a problem with it.

I don't have a problem with the word Hell at all. I guess it was just awkward hearing Owen Wilson's voice say it coming out of a car for kids to hear.

These films are rated PG for a reason, and not G films.

Not that it changes the point, but the Rat was rated G here in the states.

Really? Wow...my earlier comment is redundant. :(

I thought I saw some PG ratings on some Rat material. No idea what it will be here yet, though if it's a G more likely it will be a U (Universal) here.

I actually assumed it was PG after seeing it. When I did the review for A-V I double checked it and was surprised to see the G. Cars was much more of a G film compared to Ratatouille.

Yes, it was. I knew it was G going in, but coming out thought it deserved a PG due to some of the more 'risqué' and gruesome scenes.

Yeah, I also just assumed it was PG after I saw it.
Eh, as I watched the film I did feel that some scenes were a bit risqué. But I think it only felt that way because I wasn't expecting it.

In the end, I didn't think it was a big deal. Just because it wasn't a typical "family friendly" film, doesn't mean that it wasn't appropriate for children. It's just different from what we're used to (a good thing in my opinion :wink: ).
Although my opinion might not really count on this. My parents let me watch Roger Rabbit over and over again when I was 6 :P

So the "Rat" is rated PG in some countries? That makes sense. I thought for sure that it would receive a 'PG' rating here in America, but I guess not....

As for the whole "Welcome to hell" line: I thought it was hilarious -- best line in the whole film. Heck, look at my signature. I don't see what some people's problem is. Heh.

I thought we scared you away or something, but its great to have you back!! Remember me? Haha, of course you do! :P

I also just read your review and it was very beautiful. It was just cute, how it all came from the heart! :)
Lol. Heheh. Hi, Dan. ;)

Thanks for the comment! And yeah, I am absolutely ecstatic. I can't get enough of the film! If I see it again tonight it will be the ninth time I will have seen it.... :P

I went back to the movie on July 4. Enjoyed it just as much the 2nd time. Interestingly, sitting in front of me were 2 couples who were probably in their 60s; they seemed to really enjoy it. I know I should have more new notes than this, but 2 things that really cracked me up this time:
After the first disastrous attempt to hide Remy in his clothes, the way Linguini scolds Remy as if scolding a pet: "Biting - NO! Scampering - NO!"
And during Linguini's drunk scene, when Skinner is interrogating him about whether he ever had a pet rat, worked in a lab with rats, etc., the way Linguini says, "Nope-ity Nope-ity Noo," as if they're playing 20 questions. Oh, and the "rat - patootie" line got a big laugh.
Also, I just got on Ebay this evening and started looking at the stuff. :shock: Wow, apparently there is a ton of merchandise out there! (There's even an Anton Ego plushie! Not to mention the Remy corkscrew and bottle-stopper set.) I like the Remy beach towel, the "Feed Me Emile" hand puppet, and the adorable coffee cups with the drawings of Remy & Emile in the style of the closing credits. But I'd still like to have
a t-shirt with the "Le Ratatouille" bistro sign.
