User blog:MegaToon1234/Elijah's Movie Reviews: Ratatoing

Are you ready for Ratatoing? No? Well, we'll watch it anyway. But first, do you wanna know what it's made by? Vídeo Brinquedo.

Vídeo Brinquedo is a Brazilian animation studio, located in São Paulo, that produces low-budget direct-to-video animations. The company was founded in 1994 to distribute children's animation with the intention of distribution in its home market of Brazil, as well as to other global markets. They are known in the United States as Toyland Video, and in the United Kingdom as Brightspark.

They've used to have their own channel on YouTube to showcase their B-cartoons, but now, funnily enough, it's been eliminated by YouTube admins themselves due to "multiple copyright infringements". Not that it has stopped Video Brinquedo from creating another one. Also, they distribute Sonic X, Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, and Little Lulu in Brazil. The 4Kids actors are in a lot of these, notably Dan Green, Mike Pollock, Wayne Grayson, Lisa Ortiz, Veronica Taylor, Maddie Blaustein, and a few others. Just look at Tiny Robots, it features Jason Griffith, the voice of Sonic, as Trank.

The company primarily distributes mockbuster films with concepts blatantly plagiarized from films by Pixar, Disney, DreamWorks and other major studios.

Back in Netflix on Wii, I seen the The Little Cars, it's pointless, trust me. But, back to Ratatoing. On the adverts, it was said to be inspired by Ratatouille, but Ratatoing's a rip-off. What's next? The 44 minute-long film, tells the story of Marcell Toing, a mouse who is the most gifted chef in Rio de Janeiro. He owns the famed restaurant "Ratatoing" along with his crew, consisting of fellow mice Carol and Greg. They plan out weekly raids on human kitchens to acquire fresh ingredients for use in their dishes. However, rival restaurant owners are desperate to discover Marcell's secrets and are willing to risk putting their own restaurants out of business to unearth them. Also, even though it was awful, it was a popular YTP thing, too. But hey, maybe you find the Chinese copy of it. Because, a 2008 study in Beijing found that the Chinese DVD copy of Ratatoing had a high amount of piracy. And now, be prepared to waste your time with this rip-off. You have been warned. Oh, cue text commentary with MangoUno.



That's it, throw it away in the trash!
