This was one of the most inspiring animated films I HAVE EVER SEEN! I loved following the most unlikely character in their pursuit of their passion despite all odds. The music was gorgeous and the overall vibe was so captivating. Enjoy :)

Gotta say you’re one of the best movie react channels. You always pay attention and don’t talk over important parts, but still give a lot of substantial commentary and opinions.
Yeah since I first saw him I've always considered him an intelligent reactor
hes also just genuinely nice and comes across as very sweet so i feel like i can watch him react to anything
Fr, i watch almost everything he uploads
@@Sean-do1cthow do you know..? Do you know him outside of the channel?
Anyways, he deserves alot more subscribers. His reactions/timings to do them are sublime
BIG FACTS
Fun fact: Rats don’t have a gag reflex. That means the soup was so bad, it broke the laws of nature
Oh dear… that’s just horrific
Which is why rat poison works, they can't throw it back up.
Was looking for this, love that this is the one comment every Ratatouille reaction gets
I laughed out loud 🤣
Usually Pixar is so good at making things realistic meaning the fact they messed up is hilarious to me.
I love that you pointed out how completely accepting Ego was to the idea that Collette was the chef. It's such a small point, but an important one that opens the door to him accepting Remy as the chef.
For real tho, like why even is it that for years and even now society expected women to stay at home and cook, yet she had to work the hardest just to be acknowledged as a cook because she's a woman? Make it make fricking sense.
A major fan theory is that the critic’s mom is the old lady from the start of the movie which is why Remy knows how to cook like his mom
Even the house almost looked the same in Ego’s flashback.
I don't think the old lady is his mom. She has a much lighter skin tone than the mom in the flashback and also, it seems like Remy didn't do much cooking before getting to the restaurant.
@@CrashNTheBoys2002that point actually doesn’t hold up under scrutiny…I don’t remember the details, but some furniture is in different places and the fact that they have a lot of the same things is just then reusing models
It’s a cute theory, but I don’t think it’s canon
@@alexanderbering7845 Old people's skin gets lighter as they age due to melanocytes (pigment cells) decreasing
@@WorldWeave you really think parents don’t move furniture around? Before Pixar was bought by Disney, they never used the same models. Go watch Wall-e, you will notice they don’t use the same models for the humans on the axiom.
"change IS nature" ROUND OF APPLAUSE PLS
I love that Ego went from being a critic to a small business investor, essentially seeing talent and helping foster it to the point that maybe they'll be the next ratatouille
What I really love is, that even tough the whole clan needed to flee because of his actions, Remy's father never blames him but just is happy to have him back.
Same with the end when despite him not understanding Remy's love for cooking still supports him with the whole clan.
So beautifull ❤
Yeah! He does say “ You didn’t make it easy” and Remy says sorry and then his father says he’s just glad he’s home. So even better than not blaming him, he makes sure Remy understands what he did but sees he’s genuinely sorry and then moves on which in my opinion is a good balance from a parent.
@@thecocoacouch It absolutely is! And that might also be the reason why Remy's father is the leader of the clan. He knows how to threat his people right, make them learn the right things and hold them together like a big family.
I wonder how many comments will repeat the "RATS DON'T HAVE A GAG REFLEX, THE SOUP WAS THAT BAD" spiel.
I like the little detail that Ego is much more healthy and happy looking in the last scene because he's eating Remy's food.
“Change is nature, and it starts when we decide” is my favorite line. Has to be in the top 10 favorite animated quotes for me
Just love that it brought him back in his mom’s cooking … because mom’s cooking is always the best.
This is especially funny after Colette screamed “You CANNOT be mommy!” when training Linguini. 😆
unless you're my mom who can't boil a potato
Not only that but it (literally) brought more color into the scene and more importantly into him
yeah or dad, my dads cooking is much better than my mums lol
My dad is the cook in my life. Still the best food I ever had
Funny story. Remy's voice actor is a comedian by trade and profession. He got the job when the director saw him doing an iconic standup bit describing the endless amount of food at a restaurant. The director loved the delivery of how he described each food item that he instantly called him for an audition. It was Patton Oswald who also has a bit about ranting about Star War and many other various food items. He is a funny man.
I can't believe you haven't watched this one! It's one of those masterpieces you watch and instantly becomes a comfort movie. One of the best ever.
Right? I recall watching this one as a kid.
a detail i love is that ego’s cheeks are more round at the end, because he has been enjoying food more!!
I actually kind of admire Ego. He isn't just an arbitrary naysayer. He has incredibly high standards, but when something meets them, he's prepared to give it praise.
I think Remi's dad took the risk cause he was trying to make his relationship with his son right he was trying to be 'Ok I'll take the risk you say it's safe I'll trust you' make sense?
Love his comment to Ego accepting colette instantly
I've actually made the Ratatouille dish they make for Ego. Its good, but really hard
When the food critic eats the food and we as the audience get sucked into his childhood is so brilliant and reminds how a smell or dish can bring you back. ❤
I absolutely adore this movie as someone who has pet rats because even though it's animated and nothing like this would ever happen in real life, it can help to fight against the horrid stereotypes of rats. They're such sweet creatures, intelligent and loving. Obviously wild rats aren't quite as great as domesticated rats but it's still nice to see a movie pushing past the stereotypes and portraying Remi and his family as a much more friendly species than what most people would think rats to be.
I love your reactions, you're extremely good at picking apart certain aspects and details that most wouldn't be able to even notice. Keep it up. :)
Also, I really like the scene where Remi is going through the sewers because rats are very skilled swimmers and so I think Remi's chance of surviving without his book is probably higher than you would think.
Fun fact, rats are quite clean animals, one of the main things they do is grooming. Pet rats are actually cleaner than dogs!
Now, this was the movie that inspired me me to be a chef! It really showed how much I value and cherish food. There's just something about the beauty of how to create something from just about anything. Also, fun fact, Pixar actually went to a French kitchen for accuracy and inspiration for the movie.
Mate, your channel is growing because you are such a sweet, genuine person in all these videos. It's almost annoying how nice and kind you are, but its only annoying because many people can never be that kind and you make them look bad. I am one of those people but i get more joy from watching your videos.
Can't wait to see the next ones and your reactions for The Legend Of Korra. Keep being awesome man!
Obviously Ego's monologue at the end is wonderful, but I love the one at the beginning when he says, "I don't believe 'anyone' can [cook]." It's a brilliantly subtil turnaround of Gusteau's motto, in which he could really be saying it in two different ways, and you're not really sure which way he means it. Either he's just refuting the idea that literally anyone can cook, or he's taking it further and saying no one can cook! And to top it all off, in the ending monologue, he finally realizes that Gusteau meant it in a different way himself. Brilliant!
I have just realised, the reason why I've always thought the maximum Michelin stars was FIVE was not because of Stray Kid's song, but because of THIS MOVIE!!!!
My gosh i can’t escape the stray kids even on here 💀😂
what i thought of too hahaha, jisung might have been led astray by this movie too when writing the song
12:04 which is funny, because rats can't actually throw up.
And little did we know that Emile's voice actor, Peter Sohn, would go on to direct Elemental!
OH MY GOODNESS, I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT!
Wait, who??
After Google 😮 he directed and co wrote Elemental???? Woah
"Right to his rat heart" lmfao why was that so funny
How am I just now realizing that Ratatouille wasn’t just a food Ego’s mom used to make…it was his comfort food
Honestly, the way people in the street reacted everytime they saw Remy... no one in Paris would react that way, we are too used to seeing rats there 🤣 One time, I was sitting at a café with my sister having a drink and we saw 4 rats organize themselves to steal food from a bin: one of them climbed to the top to check what was inside and then seemed to screetch orders at the others below so they would know where exactly to bite the plastic bag to tear it up. No one else batted an eye as they walked around the scene, we laughed so hard!
OMG that is hilarious!
"His nane sounds like 'a meal'"
...DAMMIT I NEVER FIGURED THAT OUT
I also never noticed (despite watching this movie countless times) that Anton's office was shaped like a coffin :P
Look at Anton's typewriter, it's in the shape of a skull
You’ve rapidly become one of my favorite reactors. You’ve got a rare combination of heart, humor, insight, and artistic knowledge that really makes you stand out among the crowd. Your editing is also really good, finding that difficult balance between comments and appreciation of the film, catching the important points and cohesively cutting it all together to make a compelling story. Keep up the good work, mate!
This is one of my favorite Pixar movies, glad you're watching it.
Fun Fact : I'm a young French man name Rémy
So of course i saw this movie like a thousands time
It's always pleasant to see reactions about it
about France, about cooking and about rats XD
I would 100% eat at Ratatouille restaurant if it exist
They had Thomas Keller, a world renowned chef consult on this. So, the authenticity is out of this world. Even my brother who is a chef, watches this and laughs at Colette’s intro of the line because of how true those stories are.
"Imagining explaining this plot to someone who has never seen it" I feel you now must watch Everything everywhere all at once! hahaha
Love Ratatouille Linguini and Collette relationship is great. To contritely belief Rats are kept has pets and are clean and healthy and very affectionate. It's because of the environment that some of them are in.
Ratatouille is DELICIOUS. In the France pavilion in Epcot (right next to the Ratatouille ride which is SO MUCH FUN) there's a crepe restaurant that serves a ratatouille galette (a savory crepe made with a special kind of wheat), and it's something I try to get every time I'm in the park. So, SO good.🤤
Also as I said, the ride is a ton of fun. It's called "Remy's Ratatouille Adventure" and you're basically shrunk down to the size of a rat and it's a hectic trip through a kitchen while trying to avoid humans. My mother and I were legit screaming and laughing with joy - along with everybody else - just because it was so much wild fun with the way the ride vehicles moved and how phenomenal the effects were. There's definitely a reason it always has such a long line!
Right?! The Crepe was soooo good and the ride was fun as well!!😊😁🐀🥖🇫🇷🗼
@@jackieleggs9274 Isn't that fountain back there one of cutest things you've ever seen??
@@kriscynical It was!!😊😁
"Out of the frying pan and into the fire, literally!" Lol, loved that. So sweet getting to see your reaction to this. I really liked how you caught the little things and details on some parts right away on your first time watching. My sisters both adore this movie, plus I love it since I work in a kitchen too. So nice getting to see you watch this beauty and getting a feel/view into the culinary world.
About the soundtrack. The main theme Le Festin in the personal lemotif for Remy. It tells the story of a thief who abhors stealing so he decides to make something of himself by becoming a chef. Word getting out about his past and his world turning inside out because of it. The joys of wanting to create, the pain that takes to get there, and that the past doesn't define who you want to be. Just like our Remy.
As an undiagnosed autistic kid, this movie helped a part of me not feel monstrous or alien. "remy hears music when he feels things so me doing so much be normal" "remy sees images and colours so i'm not bad for doing so" "I wonder if i can just smell food and know how it must be seasoned? Oh i can so that means i can cook! So i'm a good cook like remy!"
The smallest things that makes it so that at least a part of one's experiences isn't broken or bad matters so much. Nowadays i know that these things are related to autism, arfid and synesthesia and more but mini me just knew "not normal" But with ratatouille i could point and say "It's me 😄"
The irony of Sir Ian Holm playing Chef Skinner, a character with an obvious Napoleon Complex. Actually plays Napoleon in, Time Bandits.
It's hard to believe this movie's 17 years old already.
Your reaction when the ceiling fell made me cackle and choke ohhh my god that deep, aghast inhale was golden
This and Wall-E are my favorite Pixar films (in fact, not just Pixar). I can't believe how lucky I am you practically did them back to back.
Ratatouille IS most definitely a masterpeice. I have loved this film since it first came out, and I got it for my neice, and nephews to watch with me. They still love it as well. It was a great story which had some life lessons in it as well. GLAD you enjoyed it too!!! Brian
Every time I’m watching your videos it feels like I’m watching a movie with a friend and it makes me feel so warm! Thank you
Hands down one of the best animated movies ever! So very few of them actually show rodents not only as something disgusting & deserving to be destroyed but as clever and, let's be honest, somewhat cute creatures. Really appreciate this as a person who's always liked mice and rats (of course pet rats are pretty different from these wild rats, especially when stumbling upon one in your kitchen, but still!). Also there's no need to say how many times have I tried to cook ratatouille and never ever got any close to Remi's level.
Anyway, thank you for another amazing video, Oscar!
Anton Ego was voiced by the great Peter O'Toole, who played the title role in Lawrence of Arabia. It's one of the greatest epics of all time--I hope you can watch it at some point!
The finest chef in France, you could argue VERY fairly, isn't Remy. It's Anton Ego's mother.
She’s a cook but sure 😆
These last few movie reactions are amazing! Literally seeing others react to my childhood 😊
I always love your reactions, your amount of empathy and understanding is something you don't see very often in reactions. Please never change.
This is my comfort channel. Thank you for always being so wholesome and kind and thoughtful with the things that you say. Fav channel EVER ❤
I really love this movie. He's so kind and touching... And I loved my pet rat named Mulder. It is a pity that they live so little(((
Can we talk about how she kisses him and he hasn't even brushed his teeth yet, and she loved it. Lol
The way I tear up every time Anton has the flashback . What a beautiful movie!
6:46 actually no , the force could not kill the rat, and rats can hold their breath for many minutes and are great swimmers generally, that’s why they can come up through the toilet
I'm still waiting for one of my pet rats to make me an omelette in the morning 😊
Pretty sure the chef represents his inner monologue. Notice how when you listen to a good reader or you watch a solid movie the character that inspires you their represented voice is the one that speaks in your mind? Or their style of speaking is parroted in your mind? I feel that's what's happened here with remmy
Just wanted to say that I love your channel so much. I’ve watched a majority of your videos and you are one of my favorite CZcamsrs! ❤️ :)
There is a theory that gustob had a rat cooking for him too, the mom of remy ,and that remys family was living in egos moms house at the start
this is the most perfect timing for this reaction! i just discovered your channel through your live action avatar reactions and went back and watched all your atla and tlok videos and now you're reacting to one of my favorite movies!!
grew up watching it and love it and love Ego
Another great movie, this falls barely short behind Wall-E among the Pixar movies for me.
Ratatouille is just as comforting as the actual dish, the one Remi makes at the end is a fancier version called Confit Byaldi. Which is amazing as well, with an added bonus of looking gorgeus.
my favorite animated movies are this, Aladdin, and How to Train Your Dragon
Love this movie and your reaction. This is hands down my favorite Pixar movie. If you’re interested, I believe Schafrillas has like a 2 hour video talking about this movie as Pixar’s Magnum Opus. Highly recommend
It’s my favorite Pixar film too! So happy to hear you say that! It’s always been an inspiration for me to continue my own work in the arts.
Watching your reaction video to one of my favourite movies is like the perfect start into my day! So thank you! Can't wait for more! 🙂
Remy: humans don't just survive, they create
Me, eating potato chips and an entire bar of chocolate for dinner: preach
You should react the bolt it's such a good movie
Yes!
yesss oscar pleaseeeeee
Omg yes!!
Yeah!!😊😁
Bolt is a great movie react to the extra scene as well.
"This lady" is Ego's mother. So, its claimed. There are said to be key artifacts all over the house that link to Ego's flashback of growing up.
This is a truly great movie, Oscar! 👩🍳 Cheers to writers/directors Brad Bird and Jan Pinkava.
Horst’s stories for what he went to prison for are honestly one of my favorite parts of this movie
First time commenting, you're one of my favorite reactors! Literally brightens my day every time I see you've uploaded. You seem like a very beautiful person in and out and I appreciate your input about the movies you watch, I think it's difficult to find reactors with such openness to new, complicated or just very complex movies so I'm glad I found your channel !!
Loved the reaction as always
This is my absolute favorite film, I'm so glad you watched it and enjoyed it. Whenever I'm having a bad day, I put this film on and by the end of it, I always feel better. It's a comfort film for me. (And I may or may not have "your only limit is your soul" as part of a tattoo.)
Fun fact about 12:01…rats have no gag reflex…Linguine made the soup THAT BAD….it BROKE. NATURE
I never understood that. Isn’t the gag reflex a reaction to a foreign object touching certain parts inside your mouth/throat? Rats can’t vomit, though, so it still broke nature 😄
@@otter011I think they literally can't vomit or gag at all. It's why they have such a good sense of smell to make sure what they're eating is good and why rat poison is so effective.
Man you uploaded this just as I was cooking my dinner what perfect timing. I haven’t seen this movie in years I forgot just how much I loved it
This became one of my favorite movies the very first time I saw it. I'm so glad you've now watched it too! And the funny thing is, I either was in a culinary program at the time or got accepted into one a short time after. So really that's another reason this movie resonates with me.
Ego's review wasn't about food. It was about the movie industry at large.
I never put it together until you pointed out that Emilie’s name sounds like “a meal”. I just thought they chose a European name since it’s set in Europe. 😅
The dog's shadow that barks at Remy, is actually Doug from Up.
I get so used to watch your videos, because your commentary moments are interesting, I like a lot, i'm so glad that I found your channel
The little "1" that you did when Collette started telling off Linguini at around 20:35 was priceless
17:25 Aw, Remy didn’t even get to eat his omelette. No fair.
Anton Ego is voiced by the great Peter O'Toole and the character was inspired by Louie Jouvet, a French actor and director. Was Judge Claude Frollo the guy to who you were referring from Hunchback of Notre Dame?
Oh yeah. They leave it ambiguous whether the image of Auguste Gusteau is actually real or just Remy's imagination. In the script for what it's worth they name him Gusteau's spirit and he in some cases knows more than Remy should have privy for a figment of his imagination.
Please Watch ”Enchanted” you wont regret it 😂
My favorite Pixar by far, this movie was clearly made with love
26:35 - When you said "all the rats eat out of necessity; they never even taste it"... that reminded me of something interesting: Although there is very limited research on the following (one really good [ironically rat] study on the following done was from 1940!) ... it is perfectly legitimate considering what we know about the nervous system, conditioning and learning / memory: Animals (and humans IF on a healthy whole food diet) CAN use taste and [IF legitimate] cravings to actually know where nutrients are, and therefore in order to know "how much of which foods" to eat. That does NOT work for processed foods however because the added tastants and less-healthy, disproportionate nutrients actually "trick" our brains into (for example) thinking we're getting an essential nutrient that we're NOT. For example, it is believed that when we craving sugar, it is likely because we ACTUALLY need vitamin C or another essential nutrient that USUALLY (in a whole natural food) comes along WITH that sugar (i.e. oranges for example naturally contain BOTH sugar and vitamin C). However, if we try to satisfy our sugar craving with mainly processed food (which virtually never contains vitamin C or natural levels of other essential nutrients)... then we'll be missing out on the vitamins and/or minerals that we likely actually needed, which drove us to subconsciously crave the sugar in the first place. Then days later we wonder why we still crave too much sugar AND feel like cr*p AND are unhealthy. But making one's diet only whole (single ingredient, whole) foods for a while really works; I personally get berry / banana and duck [i.e. skin] cravings now instead of candy and chips cravings since I've been mainly "whole food" for so long lol.
But going back to how "legitimate" cravings can work... to make it short, since we (nor animals) do not have taste receptors for ALL essential nutrients, we instead use the combination of ability to taste what we CAN and remember how it makes our body feel, even days later... in order to know what nutrients we may need "more of". Again, it always must be emphasized that ONLY is expected to work for WHOLE, unprocessed foods. But they've done actual studies- for example when rats were first deprived of thiamine (vitamin B1) for a while, and then given two piles of food, (one of which was deficient in vitamin B1, one of which DID contain B1), rats eventually figured out which pile of food DID contain the vitamin they'd been missing (even though there is no separate taste receptor for it). An additional experiment was then done where the two piles were made to taste different... and the rats figured it out even FASTER.
10:57 out of the fring pan into the FIRE 🔥
You ask, you shall reaseve from the universe
Yeeees!!! 😍😍 Ratatouille and HTTYD are my favorite animated movies!!! ♥️♥️ I'm so happy you reacted to them and even more that you liked them!! Linguini has my heart but Collette is such an amazing character. The music is incredible, when you listen to the whole score you realize that is pretty much the same melody with different rhythms and styles which makes it even more amazing 😍 gosh I love this movie
i feel like you'd love a monster in paris now! great film with a lovely soundtrack, iconic characters and a heartfelt story
Fun fact, rats are exceptional swimmers 😊
Love this reactor he’s the best 🔥🔥🔥💯💚
Cocoa couch channel is amazing 🛋️
This movie shows what rats in real life go through
This is one of Pixar’s best films that they’ve ever made
your reactions are like a comfort place for me cause I feel like you are such a warm and empathetic person 🥰 thank you for another video and please keep posting often ❤
Fun fact: The titular dish, ratatouille, is a French vegetable stew commonly served in the more rural areas of the country (hence why Colette asked Remy why he wanted to serve Ego a 'peasant dish').
Earlier in the movie, Colette had berated Linguini (Remy) for his more relaxed cooking, saying that 'you cannot be mommy'.
Remy, in choosing ratatouille as the dish, accomplished two things. He proved Colette wrong and, in the same vein, won Ego over because his big dish was representative of a mother's cooking.
Finally, because ratatouille is a stew, the movie's creators interviewed an actual American haute cuisine chef, asking him how he'd prepare ratatouille if he were serving it in a high-class setting. The method the chef gave them is what Remy served
I always get hungry when i watch this movie. I love it! ❤
The old lady at the beginning is actually Anton’s mom. You’ll notice the houses are the same in the flash back. 💜
I imagine the ghost is sort of a Jiminey Cricket type. His psyche, but also the visual representation of his desire: he’s a rat, BUT WANTS to be a cook. And so he fights back and forth. I imagine it’s also his creativity, like you said.
This movie was great! Glad to hear you liked it
You have to re-watch this film if you want to notice the insane number of cultural references in this film, including many references to other movies : for instance one of them is about the character of Trinity in Matrix (motorcycle scene)...
