And this movie will be 10x better than Live Free Or Die Hard
Massa... by Zarles	Jun 21st, 2007 02:15:22 PM
As someone who's liked a lot of girly-ass movies and other assorted nonsense, how could you think Finding Nemo was just okay? That said, I can't WAIT to see this. I missed the goddamned sneak preview showings last week, and I'm still bitter. My ass is in a seat come the morning of the 29th.
No doubt a modern classic... by i pwn teh suk and i pwn it well	Jun 21st, 2007 02:18:12 PM
But there's something about the title that just sounds, well, evil. Anyone else get that vibe?

This is gonna beat Die Hard 4 in box office by Kragmose	Jun 21st, 2007 02:32:35 PM

Am I the Only One Who... by Deandome	Jun 21st, 2007 02:44:00 PM
...is dying to get a Neil Cumpston review of this film? Who cares if it's utterly biased because the star IS Neil Cumpston....I'd just love to see him take on something other than a jolly-good bloodbath flick from time to time. "I LAUGHED SO HARD, MY PANCREAS POPPED OUT...ATE SOME POPCORN...WENT DOWN ON MY DATE AND BITCH-SLAPPED SOME BROTHERS WHO WERE TALKING TOO LOUDLY..."
I'm sure this is a good movie, but how do the guys at by lost.rules	Jun 21st, 2007 02:45:14 PM
AICN have time to write reviews when they're all taking turns sucking Brad Bird's cock all the time? Not to mention Eli Roth.
No animated rat movie will EVER surpass NIMH... by Osmosis Jones	Jun 21st, 2007 02:46:54 PM
...but I'm eager to see Ratatoulie anyways.
Terrible trailer by henrydalton	Jun 21st, 2007 02:47:41 PM
Hope the movie's better than the godawful Cars or the way below par Finding Nemo. I'm not holding my breath though.
Are rabbits a type of rat? by Kamala	Jun 21st, 2007 02:50:23 PM
If so, Watership Down rules all animated Rat movies.
What's that noise? by lost.rules	Jun 21st, 2007 02:51:58 PM
Everytime I read an article about Brad Bird, or Eli Roth, on this site I keep hearing this slurping sound.

Massawyrm, your writing style borders on incomprehensible. I say that in the nicest way possible.

Dang, is anybody going to DISS DIS by jimbojones123	Jun 21st, 2007 02:56:00 PM

Rowley... by Err	Jun 21st, 2007 03:18:35 PM
Don't diss Massawyrm, he's got years of classes on film critique under his belt. [/sarcasm]
Just rewatched NiMH by seagrass	Jun 21st, 2007 03:20:36 PM
and the voice acting in that still blows me away. Justin and Jenner...damn. "Take what you can...when you can." "Then you have learned...NOTHING." and then of course Carradine's Great Owl is nigh untouchable.
Love seeing Ratatouille get the love it deserves by PullMyFinger	Jun 21st, 2007 03:24:24 PM
After the screening, I was worried people might misjudge it, but it's getting its due deservedly so. Count me as one who plans on seeing it a second time.

Even the food geeks.... by Aloy	Jun 21st, 2007 03:34:20 PM
are wetting themselves over this one with all the foodie details. Might just be one of those great confluences of geekdom. Die Soft? Dies hard.
Yeah...who cares about the 20th review of Ratatouille? by MonteCristo	Jun 21st, 2007 03:37:18 PM
What about the Scarecrow?
I think I got a nibble by DirkD13"	Jun 21st, 2007 03:38:06 PM
That was THE BEST Simpsons trailer so far. Genuinely funny and cut like an action trailer too! Oh and Pixar rule, they've given me countless quiet hours from my three-year old.

Brad Bird...genius. Eli Roth...mostly useless. by Ninja Nerd	Jun 21st, 2007 03:50:34 PM
Comparing these two guys is like comparing a hot fudge sundae to a pile of shit. If Bird's body of work doesn't tell you the enormous talent he has, then you need to die, today, and hope reincarnation is for real. Sorry for the mini-rant, but there's no way ANYONE (listening, lost.rules?) can compare these two. As for Pixar films, my "watch a zillion times" choice is The Incredibles. Cars, Nemo, and the Toy Storys aren't far behind. And while it was NOT a Pixar film, The Iron Giant is a brilliant film. As well as Vin Diesel's best acting effort. Bird rules. Roth just makes me retch.
O.K. Try reading my posts next time Ninja turd by lost.rules	Jun 21st, 2007 03:53:32 PM
READING CAN BE FUN! YEAH!
Brad Bird by Bloo	Jun 21st, 2007 04:08:51 PM
deserves all the internet fellatio we can give him. That man is an artist. Comedy? You know those excellent seasons of the Simpsons, Brad Brid was a supervisiong producer, plus look at all the great comedy in The Iron Giant (the capachino scene gets me every time) and the Incredibles...Coming of Age stories, look at The Iron Giant, The Incrediables...Able to punch the emotional buttons, again look at the Iron Giant...oh action...The Incrediables and The Iron Giant's flight...Comic Book movie, oh yeah Incrediables...emotional, realistic family scenes, the dinner scene in...The Incrediables and hogarth's inaction with his mother. And he is able to use name actors, some not even known for their voice work, and use them in incrediable ways, Craig T Nelson, Jennifer Aniston, Harry Connick Jr, Jason Lee, Vin FREAKING Disel, I mean comeon...I swear to Morgan Freeman (btw thanks Massa for that I'm so using it now everywhere) that some of you are just looking for any reason to bitch, you can be happy about anything...Morgan Freeman's son.
Massa...jeeze by PhantomSpazzz	Jun 21st, 2007 04:17:59 PM
I just can't stand this guys reviews. Whenever I log on and read the heading "Massawyrm reviews...[insert film here]", I just roll my eyes and mumble "eh christ, not again" under my breathe. I really have something personal against the pixels on my screen that make up the letters in his reviews......Those Jew-Bastard PIXELS!! Anyways, He's a tool.
Anyone else notice? by Mako	Jun 21st, 2007 04:22:26 PM
That all of the glowing reviews here are coming from AICN'ers that were treated very well by the PIXAR/Disney people? And that every opening to each of these reviews thus far... is the AICN Geek Squad saying "You all suck... and I don't because I contribute to AICN and get special privileges that you losers don't." That's okay... don't bite the hand that feeds you. I don't need PIXAR rubbing my feet to tell me if a movie is good or bad. Oh... and THE INCREDIBLES is not a great film. IRON GIANT was great. THE INCREDIBLES was a snore fest.
Watching this now online.... by whataboutbob25	Jun 21st, 2007 04:30:48 PM
Its set in paris, why is the young chef who gets pally with the rat speak like a yank? And the fucking rats have american accents and they like in france.

speaking of love by Rupee88	Jun 21st, 2007 09:18:49 PM
www.voteforhaydn.net ....what a doll. Anyway I would ignore Ratouille if not for the Brad Bird connection. Incredibles is one of the best films from the past 10 years, so I may have to check out the rat.
Thank you Massawyrm! by No time for Haters	Jun 21st, 2007 09:21:40 PM
I was beginning to think I was the ONLY person on the planet to think that Pixar movies are just enjoyable, and not these genius works of art like everyone else seems to believe. Everyone seems to come up with these deep allegories for all his films, and I just don't buy it. I mean the other day I was watching the Star Wars special on the History Channel, and they were making these huge, sweeping comparisons of how this symbolizes that, and this relates to that. How about the fact that George was just telling a fun story? Why does it have to be any deeper than that? Now, maybe Brad Bird has interviews where he states that his movies have deeper meaning, but I just figure the guy is just telling a fun story. So with that being said, on the strength of YOUR review, I probably will go check this out now. If a non-devout Pixar fan like you say it's good- i'm willing to give it a shot.

Brad Bird makes some good damn films by Toxic Frog	Jun 21st, 2007 09:57:07 PM
Iron Giant, Incredibles both rock. I'm really looking forward to this one. You know I almost dismissed Iron Giant cause the trailers made it look like a typically stupid kid's movie. When I saw it, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was an animated film that respects the viewer, rather than talking to the audience as if they're fucking idots (like almost every Disney movie). One of my favorites.
Now this is a really interesting talkback... by Killah_Mate	Jun 21st, 2007 10:41:21 PM
Sort of like a snapshot of the fanboy psyche, drawn against the clean white background of Ratatouille. It's a sweet movie from a brilliant director and a brilliant studio, which most of the talkbackers haven't seen, and can't be authoritative about. Cue the dismissals and the outright hostility. How very interesting.
Wow. by Deathpool	Jun 22nd, 2007 08:46:59 AM
The fact that even a small handful of people thought there was a possibility that AICN was paid of to like a PIXAR movie of all things is incredible. Its like a black hole of retarded. Seriously, who doesn't like Pixar movies? Even the people in this talkback (and guys like Massa) recognized that while they might not think Pixar are godlike beings, they make good movies. And the guy who said they were sucking Brad Bird's cock can die fourteen times. Who's got a better track record than him? Maybe when Bird's made some rat-ass movies that statement might have a leg to stand on.
Soylent... by Err	Jun 22nd, 2007 09:04:34 AM
I was pissed to hear that Dr. Zhivago didn't get back on the list this year. My personal all time favorite film: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind didn't make the list unfortunately.
WHAT A GAY HEADLINE by supercowbell 4 cant stop the cowbell	Jun 22nd, 2007 09:53:36 AM

I really want to see this by Robots In Das Guys	Jun 22nd, 2007 10:49:20 AM
Not as much as teh Bay's Transformers, but hey. And while I haven't seen all of Pixar's films (I'm not too interested in animated films, but that's been changing with time) I'd like to think The Incredibles is Pixar's best work. Of course I don't know for sure, but such is life.
lost.rules, that's just the tip of the iceberg. by ExcaliburFfolkes	Jun 23rd, 2007 09:36:21 AM
There are a lot more names you could add to the list regarding slurping noises around here. Quentin Tarantino, Alfonso Cuaron, Steven Soderbergh, etc. etc.
