>In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the *new*. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist *can* come from *anywhere*. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now cooking at Gusteau's, who is, in this critic's opinion, nothing less than the finest chef in France. I will be returning to Gusteau's soon, hungry for more.

I disagree with this. Junk is shit. He already said before a negative review can be fun to read but they can also be very insightful. That makes it automatically better than a piece of shit that isn't either of those things.
Ratatouille has got to be the most forgettable film that Pixar have ever made.
shut the fuck up
You're crazy. It's their best movie.

>finest chef in France
Congratulations on being the king of shit castle. Call me when you're the best cook in Italy.
Without using google, what were the humans' names?
Italian cooking > French cooking
but French chefs > Italian chefs
Anything they made after toys sory 3 is forgettable
Ya, but only a Frenchman cares what the chef looks like. An Italian only cares what the chefs wife looks like.
Prove me wrong, dickhead. Even their bad films people can remember but what the fuck stands out about this one?
I didn't say it was bad I said it was their most forgettable and it is.
I rate this post a balmy 2/10. The level of hyperbole is far too meaty to be considered reasonable and it sticks in the craw.

Lots of faggy shit that won't fill you up for an honest day's work.
Unless it's Italian American cuisine.
Man I could go for a meatball sub right now. Or a chicken parm sub.
Or some of the ole GABBAGOO
Critics are almost always faggots because they risk nothing in trashing other people's work. The only critics I respect are also people who put forward their own art, and are in some ways peers to the people they criticize.
Reminds me of when I went on Scaruffi's website after browsing Sup Forums for a little bit, and that pretentious douche had an entire page of his website dedicated to explaining how "the person who makes art is not the artist, the true artist is the critic." Pathetic.
Peter O'Toole was great in that movie
people who try to shop reaction images without even the most basic knowledge of photoshop disgust me
PAN

Hey Patton, it's strange your wife OD'd and you're engaged 6 months later. I smell foul play you fucking dyke
I agree, it felt even more formulaic than that piece of shit Inside Out
If I get flashes to what their checkbox list must've looked like while I'm watching the movie then it's just not a good experience for me, who would want that really
Well this is basically saying you don't like critics that criticize. They are human, you know, it's inevitable they are going to dislike something, and the job of the critic is to put forth an informed opinion, not to 'produce their own art' or whatever. Now, there are many critics that have no idea how to criticize, and there are fuckjobs that easily start up youtube channels or blogs just to get attention by having controversial opinions, but that can't be generalized to all of them
And putting Scaruffi as your example of a critic is dumb, he's a pretentious old guy who's written thousands of essays on a variety of things and thus considers himself an expert
Yeah it was too formulaic of them to make a movie about a rat in france controlling a human's body for both their benefit.
Good job, you grew up and realized cartoons made for children can afford to be formulaic because everything is new to kids. You're a grown-ass man, you're not supposed to be watching them.
