a wolf angel is not a good angel

I watched Ratatouille the other night and I just don’t get the universal acclaim being heaped on it. I mean, it’s not a bad movie. It’s a cute, fun movie. It has incredible, incredible animation — seriously beautiful from beginning to end. But that’s it. The story is meh, the accents made me want to tear my ears out, and it’s ultimately forgettable, nothing like their much better movies (Toy Story, Finding Nemo). Their next movie is again about a boy (robot, this time), and this marks the end of my giving them money for their movies.

The short at the beginning of the movie is great, though. (Looking it up, they’ve apparently decided that the entirely sexless aliens are both male. Sigh.)
