Ratatouille

Here's also a POSSIBLE Stanton project, or Pixar, or Disney: ???????

"Princess of Mars". It sounds familiar because Disney was going to get the rights in the Katzenberg era and it fell through for some reason:

Here's the Variety story on this;

Not to belittle WDFA or Disney, but it seems like NO ONE there knows exactly what kind of films they want to make--they're like, all over the place!

Or maybe there's conflicting opinions? I'd wager the latter....

No problem! I'm glad you guys liked the picture.

Kaszubas - I must also admit that I liked their old look just a tad bit more, especially Emile's. They looked more like scrawny, sewer rats in the teaser, and in this new picture they resemble house rats more. They're both cute, but I still favor Remy's and his brother's older look.

Oh, and yeah...I figured as much. I know that the animators aren't the only ones in charge of design -- I only mentioned just them because they create the eventual result. Sorry I didn't explain myself correctly.

JV - Cool! I saw you post this up on Pixar Planet. You should post up that other link that lists a bunch of Ratatouille books, as well. Thanks for the information, in any case.

Isn't it a little soon for Pixar to be doing another space-/technology-related film right after WALL-E? Or maybe it's just me?

Mitch - I'm was but I did not want to double post, but I will now, thanks!

Edit: Here's some more Ratatouille Books that Wal-Mart gives:

Ohh...I see.

And yeah, there they are! Money is going to be pouring out of my pockets this year.

And you're welcome again, JV.

Mitch - Well I read here that they would not be starting on the movie till the next decade.

JV - Ohh...I see. Heheh -- didn't catch that part. Well then, I say "fire away" to the Pixar team.

Who said it Pixar was doing it? I clearly remember reading that they wanted to do it live-action.

Meg - Oh yeah -- yeah...you're right. Heh. Me and my memory and quick-talking mouth.

Upcoming Pixar is pointing at nice test animation of Emille

There are also some very beautifully sculpted clay maquetes of some of main characters

Wee! Gonna go check 'em out right now!

EDIT: I can't get the Emille animation to work. Nuuuu.

Meg, I had the same problem at first. At the time, I could only get a few of the options to work for me.

However, I tried the site again a couple of minutes ago. Oddly enough, all four options worked this time. Hence, you might want to try the site again.

I love the sculptures AND I LOVE the animation!!!!
I can't wait to see this movie!!!

After a few tries, I got the animation to work for me, but it was so dark I could hardly see anything. However I got it to work for me after I put it in theater mode.
