What did this scene try to convey?

that you apparently have autism if you can't understand this shit

That if the writers hadn't put the deux ex machina of him liking the food because of nostalgia, the rat would've gone splat.

The feeling of being a 20-year-old watching Rata2ille.

some kind of weird pretentious shit?

I can't believe anyone even remembers this boring-ass movie.

That Ego had humble beginnings and remembered how he used to enjoy life before he found out you can get paid more money than police officers, firefighters, and military personnel just for eating (swallowing or not) and badmouthing others.

The dysentery he was going to get from rats cooking his food.

Literally not the point of that scene. The point was that he was so harsh about his food critic job that he thought only top chefs could make good food, then he remembered that even a humble woman like his mom could make delicious food as well, which went against everything that he believed.

His Oedipus complex

This happened to me with Infinity War

The French have mommy issues.

Pixar could tell how to make good scenes without realizing that they'll inevitably be made into shitty memes by reddit in about 10 years.

desu every food item in this movie looked like shit. I don't know why everyone cares about food so much. Sure I'd rather eat something that tastes good over something that tastes like shit, but it's not a fucking religious experience, especially not if it's french garbage like in the movie.

a visual representation of nostalgia

1) Taste and olfactory sensations can evoke powerful memory recall.

2) The pen drop means he is no longer evaluating as a critic, but genuinely loving the meal as a gourmet.

It's a scene that becomes more apparent as you get older.
When you're younger you're attracted to certain kinds of content, media or consumables that bring you joy. At first anything will do but as time goes on you find yourself growing bored of the same old thing. But this isn't a bad thing, in fact it's just the opposite- the deeper you dig for better content and consumables the more you're exposed to the culture surrounding these things. You're introduced to creators and connoisseurs who share your passions and introduce you to bigger and better things.
But as the years go on you find even being apart of this community isn't enough to keep you from growing bored with what's being put in front of you. At first you assume that it's just the world around you that's going to shit- maybe you lash out, start trying to motivate people to 'do better' and try draw attention to the things that bother you about your 'meals' in hopes that people will start making better things. Maybe you actually find some success in doing this, but it's mostly temporary.
You look at the people who are still able to enjoy the most pleb of shit- you used to pity them but now you find yourself envying them. You try to remember what it felt like to enjoy food/movies/cartoons and comics that much but it feels like such a distant memory at that point.
But if you're REALLY lucky- one day it might come back to you. One day you come across this new thing- something so incredible, so wildly different and yet so deeply familiar that it reminds you why you fell in love in the first place. More than that- it gives you hope that there's still things in the world to fall in love WITH.
I swear to God OP, it feels like having years added to your life.

I think that's what Bird was trying to convey here. Because at the end of the day I think Brad's a connoisseur as well as a creator. He's probably just as familiar with this sensation as the most seasoned critic.

Rats make good food.

t. korean

it was his first time cumming hands free

>trusting (((critics)))

> French garbage
Good lord, son. Worst take all day

I think that was the best explanation for it.
One gets so bored of eventually seeing the best of the best and trying to tear it apart that they lose sight of what got them to love things in the first place.
I think the scene shows that even some basic and mundane dish like a ratatouille can be just as good, or even better, than even the finest dish.

He was poisoned

>this was Peter O'Toole's last film

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Remy's food was not merely good, it actually reawakened Anton's ability to really enjoy food, which had begun to die after years of spite and crabbiness.

He shit, pissed, and came in his pants all at the same time. An experience so profound that he had a minor stroke that made him think he was back at home, eating his mother's ratatouille.

This.

A common theme in Ratatouille was people getting so caught up in the bullshit that they lost sight of what they loved. Collette was so wrapped up in petty powerplays against her and proving herself as a female chef that she lost the pure joy of cooking. Ego got so wrapped up in his role as a blase critic that he forgot what a joy food can be.

the english have nanny issues

That he is eating food with rat feces in it just like he did in his childhood days

la recherche du temps perdu

>not remembering the scene where Remy teaches the rats to wash their hands

It's like you know NOTHING

His father was actually a rat.

Critic-shaming is a gamble; it can go two ways: either they get defensive and make a point of slamming your movie for "unrelated" reasons, or they get defensive and make a point of praising it so nobody can say they subscribe to the negative stereotype.

It worked pretty well for this one and Birdman

always thought his mother should have been the old lady whos' attic Remy and family came from.

Everyone has their favorite dish that reminds them of home.
Now is this a /cock/ thread?

A more PG version of this

That's the thing: you can't be a food critic and have no taste. A true food critic is someone who loves food and is open to try anything.

The critic has a bias because he had that food as a kid making his review pointless
