fancycwabs...about Ratatouille, which you probably won't find in any actual reviews.
Otherwise, there's not much else to say that doesn't sound like a stuck record. It doesn't measure up to the level of awesomeosity that was The Incredibles, but few things do.
- Early on, there's a complete unrelated story and resolution that happens in the space of about five seconds. It's not even a setup-punchline, but it's still great.
- There's also a great moment of 2D animation that makes me excited about what Pixar could do with the old-school group at Disney
- Ego's typewriter is the greatest typewriter this side of Naked Lunch. His study is similarly awesome.
- It's neat that Anthony Bourdain is listed as a consultant--it probably helped with the actual kitchen dynamic in ways that only someone who's cooked professionally could fully appreciate.

3) I loved everything about Ego. O'Toole (?) did a great job, but I think Jeremy Irons would have blown this role away. The "flashback" at the end was hilarious.
4) I didn't even catch that.
Overall...-awesome-. Top 1 or 2 among Pixar movies for me.
