For the Ratatouille Friends and Family Screening
Not going to spoil anything until it hits the theatre, I'll just say I was completely speechless at the end of it. I felt... full, complete, very happy and was so inspired. Some people said the story follows too much of the usual pixar's cliche, but that didn't bother me.
Loved it and will go see it again in a bigger theatre.

Can't wait to go and check it out.
Ratatouille made me happy.
Ratatouille > Monster Inc > Incredibles, for me.
(Oh and I don't know what the case is in the US, but yes, it did just come out a week ago in Singapore. SQUARE)
Anyway, this Movie is totally awesome. As lame as the concept of a rat wanting to be a chef in paris might sound, pixar probably pulled this off about as well as they could. It looks so good it's unreal, an of course the animation is what you'd expect from pixar.
I'm not sure how it holds up to the incredibles, but I'll watch it a few million times more once I have the dvd.
Still looking forward to seeing this on a big screen, despite the fact that (apparently) the story isn't all that great. I love how the scenes had lighting painted in by the concept artists before the 3d lighting was done, it really shows in what I've seen so far.
The only Pixar film I've seen in the cinemas was The Incredibles and easily my most favourite Pixar film to date. Might end up going with a few people from work to check it out once its released here.
