I read a post somewhere that someone said that this new Pixar feature is the best animation feature since the puppet kid or the dead deer movie. What does that mean? One person thinks it’s the best ever. Why does that justify attention? I dont care of Lasseter said it, Barrier, me, Kricfalusi…it dont matter. It’s the sort of shit that depersonalize the viewing experience. So many people afraid to actually go into an experience somewhat objectively (admittedly a difficult thing to do in this day an age)… all that matters folks is what YOU think. I had everyone telling me that The Old Man and the Sea was fantastic. I thought not. Now everyone says Peter and The Wolf is a classic. Nah, it’s okay. Beyond that..who the fuck cares? Why does a film have to be the best ever? And what the fuck is the criteria? How does one deem that the Rat film is the best since Puppetboy? Please, tell me? They were made, what, 40-50 years apart in completely different historical/technological/cultural/economic contexts and yet some guy can say it’s the best since and animation people start lapping it up like teens in need of mama hugs and dad approval.
grow up kids.

Dude, what was the point in writing that? Your arguing over nonsense, and completely over dramatizing the whole thing. What are you 6 or something?

with all due respect, Ratatouille is a fantastic feature film. your post a bit ambiguous about whether or not you’ve actually seen the film, but it’s got a lot of “genuine” heart to it and it’s just an extremely well animated movie. I recommend that you watch it if you haven’t.
I’m not saying it’s THE best animated movie ever, far from it, but it is a quality effort compared to most animated features that came out this year.
