10th Place: Ratatouille- 11 Votes [39.29%]


Ratatouille (/rætəˈtuːiː/; French pronunciation: ​[ʁatatuj]) is a 2007 American computer-animated comedy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the eighth film produced by Pixar, and was co-written and directed by Brad Bird, who took over from Jan Pinkava in 2005. The title refers to a French dish, "ratatouille", which is served at the end of the film, and is also a play on words about the species of the main character. The film stars the voices of Patton Oswalt as Remy, an anthropomorphic rat who is interested in cooking; Lou Romano as Linguini, a young garbage boy who befriends Remy; Ian Holm as Skinner, the head chef of Auguste Gusteau's restaurant; Janeane Garofalo as Colette, a rôtisseur at Gusteau's restaurant; Peter O'Toole as Anton Ego, a restaurant critic; Brian Dennehy as Django, Remy's father and leader of his clan; Peter Sohn as Emile, Remy's older brother; and Brad Garrett as Auguste Gusteau, a recently deceased chef. The plot follows Remy, who dreams of becoming a chef and tries to achieve his goal by forming an alliance with a Parisian restaurant's garbage boy.

Development of Ratatouille began in 2001 when Pinkava wrote the original concepts of the film. In 2005, Bird was approached to direct the film and revised the story. Bird and some of the film's crew members also visited Paris for inspiration. To create the food animations used in the film, the crew consulted chefs from both France and the United States. Bird also interned at Thomas Keller's French Laundry restaurant, where Keller developed the confit byaldi, a dish used in the film. Ratatouille premiered on June 22, 2007 at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles, California, and had its general release on June 29, 2007 in the United States. The film grossed $623.7 million at the box office and received critical acclaim. The film later won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, among other honors.

Let's hear your argument then? I still think it's one of the best

Posted by: Rabbit Froot 9th February 2015, 02:13 PM

A Bug's Life pleaaase

Posted by: J▼hnkm 9th February 2015, 02:26 PM

Both WALL.E and A Bug's Life are great, well they all are, but they are more great than some others. Up for me now, as explained before, it never quite manages to live up to the promise of the first 10 minutes.

Posted by: Jonjo 9th February 2015, 02:35 PM

'The Incredibles' for me again. It's good, but doesn't quite live up to the potential it could've been considering it's a superhero movie!

Posted by: Joey XCX. 9th February 2015, 02:37 PM

A Bugs Life... Wall-E is SO much better.

Posted by: Leonardo 9th February 2015, 02:45 PM

WALL-E, never wanted to watch it a second time, unlike the others.

Posted by: Severin 9th February 2015, 02:47 PM

Wall-E. A pretty but tedious film with a horrble 2nd half

Posted by: Jonjo 9th February 2015, 03:26 PM

If 'Wall.E' goes this early, I'm DONE with each and every single one of you!

Posted by: M¤th 9th February 2015, 03:45 PM

Wall-E is an absolute gem, needs to stay.

Posted by: ♡ Heezus Froot ♡ 9th February 2015, 04:04 PM

Up Up Up Up all night long, oh Up Up all night long.

Posted by: Acidburn 9th February 2015, 05:31 PM

Wall E.

Posted by: Totto 9th February 2015, 06:40 PM

Still haven't seen Up and Toy Story 3.

Posted by: HausofKubrick 9th February 2015, 06:46 PM

'Ratatouille' deserved a couple more rounds imo

'A Bugs Life'. Again.

Posted by: Liаm 9th February 2015, 07:21 PM

Defintiely Walle-E ,I found it so dull.

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 9th February 2015, 07:21 PM

STOP THIS
#savewalle
#voteabugslife

If walle goes, my hand may accidentally slip on the warning button for people who voted it out

Posted by: Rabbit Froot 9th February 2015, 07:25 PM

tbh Wall-E is my next target

(i think)

Posted by: Joey XCX. 9th February 2015, 08:15 PM

I know Wall E was a bit more experimental and not to EVERYONE's tastes. I wouldn't be upset if it went next round but it is SO better than A Bug's Life.

Posted by: Lukuzz 9th February 2015, 08:20 PM

Up

Posted by: Dobbo 9th February 2015, 09:00 PM

How dare you all vote A Bug's Life...

Wall-E was a fun film so that can stay. Surely Up is on borrowed time, what a nondescript film.

Posted by: Blank Slayberry 9th February 2015, 11:09 PM

I just went with The Incredibles.

People who voted for Wall-E and Up have absolutely no hearts, no lives, and shouldn't be allowed on Buzzjack.

Posted by: *Tim 14th February 2015, 11:23 AM

Wall.E tbh

Posted by: Jonjo 14th February 2015, 11:31 AM

f*** this shit. y'all are so backwards. 'Wall•E' is a masterpiece. Also ew at 'Up’ getting votes too. 'The Incredibles' is good, but overrated. There have been so many films that do the whole superhero thing to much better effect.

Brb, gonna go cry with my 'Wall•E' figures!

Posted by: Davidson 14th February 2015, 06:35 PM

Wall-E is the best non-Toy Story Pixar film. Just so perfect

A Bug's Life is by far the weakest here.

Posted by: Dobbo 14th February 2015, 07:43 PM

As a side comment I'm surprised Finding Nemo hasn't received ANY votes whatsoever. By no means the worst here but it hasn't even been mentioned in any of these polls yet. People in a state of indifference perhaps.

Posted by: *Tim 14th February 2015, 07:52 PM

Finding Nemo is their best tbh

Posted by: Chez Wombat 14th February 2015, 07:57 PM

Because you have to be stone cold to dislike it, simple (plus it won the rate last year I think)

Though on the topic of stone cold, I can't believe Wall-E/Up are so close to going Voted The Incredibles, only one I'd rank below 9/10 left.

Posted by: J▲hq 14th February 2015, 07:58 PM

Finding Nemo / Monsters Inc. for the top two

(not happening)

Posted by: Severin 16th February 2015, 06:46 PM

Finding Nemo is perfect in every way.
