I was going to see it anyways, but after reading this article clearly I'm going to leave the theater very hungry.
Quoted: To create the precisely rendered restaurant in the new animated movie “Ratatouille,” the filmmakers took cooking classes and studied the work of top chefs.

Quoted: The basic premise of the MSG150* is this: Over the next year or so we will eat lunch at every restaurant in Seattle's International District (aka Chinatown) and (a) collect interesting data, (b) write funny and useful reviews, and (c) make a million dollars.

Wow, a fake restaurant and an intentionally terrible wine list wins Spectator's "award of excellence". Awesome.

Quoted: Portland may seem an unlikely place for such status, a city destined to play second string on the West Coast to San Francisco and Seattle. But in the last five years or so Portland has grown and evolved.

You must be Derek's friend before you can comment on this Fave.I can't wait to see this!!! le rat est très astucieux!!!
I skipped over a bunch of this article to avoid "spoilage" (heh heh), but wow, sounds quite impressive. I wanted to see it anyway -- hello, talking mouse! (rat, whatever, close enough) -- and now want to see it even more :-) Hm. Will have to ask folks for advice on bringing baby to quiet movie theater...
The idea of a rat somehow assisting in food preparation isn't very appealing to me. But I am also the guy that gets annoyed by the gratuitous and ecologically incorrect usage of penguins in animated films. I may not be the target audience.
Pixar is disgustingly good at what they do. I, too, can't wait to see this one.
