Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful, blessed time on the 25th. Now let's see if we can get through the new year....

Happy New Year!!!

Ratatouille Website Updated!!

Just when we thought things couldn't get any better: Voila'! Take a look at this:

Ratatouille Website

The official Ratatouille website has finally been updated! Although there is nothing new that we haven't seen before, the improved look will almost definitely catch your eye. As of yet, there are no new trailers to view -- just the same old teaser trailer is availabe for the moment. However, the synopsis page is rather catchy: it is made to look like a menu. And the official poster for the film is avaible to download off the site.

There is no doubt about it: we are definitely getting closer!

Who's Who...

Well, this sure straightens out a few things. As you can see, it appears that the girl's name starts with the letters 'c', 'o', and 'l', suggesting that her name is, more-than-likely, Colette.

Thanks goes to the blog Upcoming Pixar for the picture.

Apparently, a few new characters from the film are depicted on the cover of this booklet. Among them: a young woman, two men, Remy, "Rollie" (the fat brown rat), and another rat who may be Remy's father or some other relative of his.

Update/Extra Information:

I have just been informed -- thanks to the blog JV Pixar News -- that the name of the lady in the above photo is, more than likely, Emilie; the young man is probably the afore-mentioned Linguini; and the short man on the left-hand side is most likely chef Auguste Gusteau.
