Pixar are my film-making Gods. If I don't do my dissertation on either them or Disney it'll be surprising (and about LotR and PJ's awesomeness). Ratatouille was one of their better films though (better than Bug's Life, for sure, although that's one of their worst films). I loved it - the creative talent involved was absolutely awe inspiring, from writer to animator. All the stuff with the humans in was a bit annoying though, especially the romance, which was utter bull.

Seriously, I could rant all day about how overrated "Finding Nemo" was. Despite some good jokes, the "plot" was incredibly repetitive and predictable, and the film was encased in more sap than the mosquitos in Jurassic Park.
It's a Disney movie, what did you expect? XD All of Pixar's films are like that, except for perhaps Toy Story 1 (can't say about Cars though, never saw that one).

pet rats can live up to six years, so think carefully before you get one. if you go that route, get a very young rat, and handle it often. they are incredibly intelligent, can learn their names, can be taught tricks, are extremely social animals, and can be quite affectionate. but it's really mean to them to get one if you are not going to treat it like a dog - interact with it every day. they get bored easily....
I really second this. Apparently males are more friendly than females though. My friend had a pet rat who was adorable. She took him into school once for rag week when the dress up theme was pirates as a replacement for a parrot. XD He had a habit of climbing up/down clothes though, and they have really scratchy claws which can leave marks in interesting places.
