You are ABSOLUTELY not alone Alan! This is probably my absolute favorite Pixar movie too! For me it’s always been between this one and The Incredibles (2004).

It would be awesome to see an Analysis of a Hero for Tanjiro or Rengoku from Demon Slayer. You could even do an analysis of any of the demons as well.

My name is Remi and I had a very complicated relationship with this movie growing up because kids would call me remi the rat after this movie came out, but it really is one of my favorites! I love cooking and it’s a fun concept, and I literally tear up every time I hear Ego’s monologue at the end. Definitely an underrated pixar film for sure!

Editing on this episode is 🔥🔥🔥 keep it rolling!

It’s because my parents love to cook and bake is the reason I am a line cook and chef. Also Linguine is wearing shoe not meant for a professional kitchen.

Just like Alan, I say a lot of Pixar films are my favorite when I watch them, but Ratatouille is truly up there in the top 3 (tied with Up and Wall-E; they shuffle themselves in order depending on the situation.) This movie is truly a celebration of cooking and food, persistence and hard work paying off - it also has such a lovely, fun score that always gets stuck in my head when I watch it. Other people have explained the genius of this movie already, but I'm just so glad that you covered it and now more people get to appreciate this movie through your video!

*new intro re Alan and therapy* Insert the “Growth” with the emphatic gesture meme here “Good for her” also works 💪🤙

"If I don't love it I don't swallow." ... That's what she said.

I never watched this movie w this perspective. As my favorite I just loved the cooking scenes. Remy was my favorite character simply for that, ignoring his design and story. When I thought about themes and the meaning of liking Remy. Involves his story for sure. But because he worked hard and loved family. I never had a moment to think how Remy is an artist from ANYwhere. First impressions are just that.

You guys should do therapy of Inuyasha and his brother sesshomaru from the Anime Inuyasha

Please do Magneto and/or Professor X!

Its giving "Do not get in the van even if they offer you candy" but way more complex This is like a children's horror movie

With the 30th anniversary coming up, a therapy video on The Crow would be interesting.

Umbridge is definitely 1000% worse than Voldemort.

I always think it’s sooo insane that Miguel’s ancestors would rather let him DIE than play the guitar…..

Been watching for a long while, have you thought about taking a look into the movie “A Man Called Otto”? Would love to hear your guys’s opinions

"the only respect that matters is self-respect" that hit different + "when Remi chasing the approval of society, the press then Chase the approval of anton ego. What he decided to do, is to just be true to himself. Not being true to Anton, or anything else. He decided who he is and what he wants to be. And he creates his own art, as accepting himself and trying to amuse himself, and that's what resonates with ego" aswell as "growing up You are chasing teachers and parents approval and part of being and adult is being your own parent and own yourself approval"

The bit where Jono fades away into nonexistence as Alan questions the duality of "inspiration and hallucination" made me chortle.

Loved your reaction as always. You should watch society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one

Why doesn't anyone ever talk about how Mulan had the opportunity to go back with no consequences, and while she felt her weakest. Instead, she wanted to overcome her weaknesses, and be a part of something, and probably most of all, just prove she could do it. It's epic.

There is a deep and clever double meaning to the cage conversation. “I am only as free as you imagine me to be. As you are” The surface interpretation is that Ghost-eau is as free as Remmy can be. He is as free as Remmy can imagine him, and Remmy can’t imagine him to be more free than he is. The deeper reading is that Ghost-eau is only as free as Remmy imagines him to be, and So Is Remmy. Remmy’s freedom is also defined by his belief in how free he is. Absolutely brilliant writing

I could watch an entire series just talking about Mulan. This movie was way ahead of its time and is so underappreciated to this day.

The editing is just getting better and better

The review from ego is definitely something i wished i can quote day to day just to flex

To be fair, The Lord of the rings is technically a sequel and The Hobbit is the original story. They just made the Lord of the rings movies first The Hobbit movies have a fair amount of problems but I give them a pass on that front

“Alan Searight, work in progmess” heheh nice

I think the reason that Sadness was the only one who could alter a memory is that she was the emotion that was being repressed, this big change that upset Riley happened and her head is going crazy trying to navigate through it by throwing around all of these random emotions, but nothing works, and by the end when Sadness takes control of the panel Riley finally breaks down and expresses how she truly feels, because once we allow ourselves to cry we’re able to truly open up, and thus it creates the first bittersweet memory that now powers her Family Island, and in essence makes it stronger than it ever was

I hate love triangles. It’s a miserable situation and I never like watching it on screen.

I watched this movie a week or so ago, mostly out of curiosity, because I had not seen it before, and WOW it was so good!! My family is religious, and they have acted like Frollo to some degree. I've given up my faith because of that. I cannot call myself a part of their religion without feeling like i'm just as bad. Esmerelda's song "God Help the Outcasts" was the most i think i have ever cried at a movie. Thank you for making this video.

Ego's typewriter is a skull...but his room is also a coffin!

14:00 the reality of this sentence. Wow. Repent and turn to God! Things will get worst, hold on to God and His Word, the world is temporary. God bless you!

Mulan is my favorite Disney movie.

My brother loves this movie. It's very inspiring

This is my favourite movie period. Because I see myself in Remy. Not just my present self, not just my past self, but my future self as well. I don't know how to cook, so I can't understand cooking. But I do understand passion and art (I'm a designer). And yes, I do want to change the world with it.

ratatouille is one of my favourite pixar movies. if you’re taking comment section recommendations, can i recommend interview with the vampire (both movie and amc show) ? the relationship between lestat and louis is so complex and would love to hear your opinion on it.

It's my favorite monologue, too

1:40 IT'S THERAPIST CONFIRMED: FRENCH ARE ICK RAAAGGGHHH 🦅🍗🏈🗽🇺🇸🎆🦅🦅🇺🇸🎇

My favourite Pizar as well. I watch about every 6 months.

This is my husband's favourite film

Honestly, I would probably fall to Palpatine's manipulations as well. He laid his tactics so well, and executed them so flawlessly.

So, Jono saying "parents are the stewards" reminds me of the speech that Drack gave in the Mass Effect Andromeda game. He talks about how dark his life got, then was given his granddaughter to take care of and then near the end says "parents aren't meant to be a goal or a finish line. We're the starting line. Where you go from there? That's all you." basically I'm saying I learned something from a videogame that seems like good advice.

“that he’s got a granddaughter now… for some reason”

More anime please. Especially more Mamoru Hosoda. Belle, The Boy and The Beast, Summer Wars, The Girl Who Lept Through Time.

Dang, Johno’s biceps were kinda poppin this episode!

If we're taking human mech suits, the OBVIOUS answer is Evangelion.

YOU MADLADS! You referenced Mr. Robot! How I wish you guys would do an episode on Elliot

21:28 "you just needed permission to be you" Unless you are a serial killer. Don't do that.

I'm lowkey astounded there isnt a Homelander video yet, I think that would be the most interesting breakdown of a character ever honestly

Ratatouille is my favorite Pixar movie too
