Brad Bird Directing Ratatouille
In a Disney shareholders meeting on Friday, it was announced that Brad Bird, award-winning writer/director of The Incredibles and The Iron Giant, would direct Pixar's next animation project, Ratatouille, the story of a skinny rat in a Parisian restaurant:
Pixar Animation Studios' Brad Bird will direct "Ratatouille," the computer-animated mouse tale that was developed in-house by the studio's Oscar-winning short-film director Jan Pinkava ("Geri's Game"). The deal was confirmed Friday at the Disney shareholders meeting in Anaheim. The story centers on a skinny rodent who fancies himself a gourmand and lives in a Parisian restaurant.
Bird is probably one of the most talented directors in Hollywood today. Even with how bad Cars looks, I have complete faith in this project now that it's in his capable hands. The only hands I've ever put more trust in are God's, but after allowing me to lose a bologna sandwich yesterday, even after several "sandwich prayers," someone's about to be bumped into the number two position, since, last I checked, Brad Bird hasn't let me lose any sandwiches, while God has let me lose at least four.
