ratatouille

these pixar chaps are getting quite good now aren't they? y'know, pushing the abilities and ignoring the limitations of animation. ratatouille really sets them apart from the likes of dreamworks and warner. this film looks incredible, there is a definite beauty to the way it lights up the screen. never did i ever imagine that my jaw would drop over the level of attention in an animated egg, for example. but that's not all, rising far above the likes of shrek and even the (genius) ice ages, 'rat-a-too-ee' is filled with out loud laughs, subtle wit, hundreds of energy and a depth and a level of detail that is quite simply unobtainable in any other film-making. i loved this. can you guess?
