    Wow i hate agreeing with Benji Shapeeno. Words have meanings, if he not cook your not getting ratatouilled, period. Guess can do other things, but they need to cook too.

      I hate agreeing with Toe Jogan. “Getting ratatouilled into becoming a good writer” fully conveys the idea better than having to re explain the concept. It isn’t just a rat piloting your body, but it does it by pulling your hair to skillfully do a task you can’t otherwise do. There is a certain whimsical fantasy that isn’t present in related concepts. A parasite piloting your body like in Resident Evil or Stargate, or even an AI with combat training like in Upgrade are technically the same thing, but have entirely separate vibes.

        Ben is selectively picking aspects from the movie that fit his agenda, completely ignoring the point Joe is doing, then trying to focus on how bad using ratatouille for “something piloting your actions” is, instead of expanding on what that would look like or having an actual opinion on the concept itself.

        Wtf is this, is Ben there to explore ideas or nitpick every unsubstantial things to “be right”? Pathetic.

    If you’ve never had ratatouille I recommend it.

    Its pretty easy to make, uses very cheap ingredients, and its way tastier than you’d expect from looking at the ingredients (or at least it was for me). The only thing is that while its pretty easy (there’s not much you can fuck up), making all those thin vegetable slices can take a long time and be really tedious if you’re just using a kitchen knife.
