@Siphonay
the cinemasins guy thinks Ratatouille takes place in contemporary France does he believe it still looks like the 60s over there wtf
I'm offended about how much this guy know nothing about France lol he failed to recognize La Marseillaise and now he's sinning this for being unrealistic except that it's an actual store that exists in Paris
(cw dead rats)
@Siphonay cinemasins is terrible tbh
@maple I mean bad faith is pretty much his trademark and that's assumed on his end but yeah
@Siphonay tbf my one experience of p
@Siphonay tbf my initial experience of paris was that there was dog shit everywhere
much like living in leith in edinburgh
@colon_three @Siphonay over the last 3 or 4 years either the amount of dog shit has decreased dramatically or I have just become used to constant dog shit.
@Siphonay J'ai horreur de ces devantures
@Nocta oui je trouve ça horrible aussi
@Siphonay have you seen the cinemasins is bad videos from Shaun? It's basically picking apart how much they didn't understand movies and I find it really funny
@noiob I'm going to check it out
@Siphonay But he did not sin it for being "unrealistic". He sinned it for the concept.
That there is a real shop doesn't change that he finds the concept sin worthy.
@turi oh but him sinning stuff for being unrealistic without looking at the deeper meaning or context of it is a pretty common occurence though
okay well maybe it does take place in the modern era, I just zoomed in on a newspaper and it has "www.journal.fr" written on it, also Colette's bike looks pretty recent
The old TV at the beginning can be justified by it being an old lady's house and maybe by stretching a little bit, the old TV and fridge in Linguini's house is because he lives in a small, cramped and cheap apartment because he's poor?
But even considering that Pixar really fantasized Paris in this movie
Also DNA tests are mentioned in the movie which weren't a thing until the 80s
luluberlu 
@Siphonay bah tiens il traîne sur mon disque dur depuis que j'ai revu les indestructibles, je vais peut-être le regarder ce soir du coup
c'est malin de faire des LT hein pff roh
Yeah I think it was Pixar's intent to make the period of time when Ratatouille takes place blurry because there's such a mishmash of stuff from different timeframes, and these headlines (I think of "Belgium to boycott world conference" doesn't match with anything that really happened), also there's no date on this newspaper
So yeah Ratatouille takes place in a fantasized, uchronic Paris
@Siphonay I like how the subtitles act like a worker strike would be big news in Paris instead of just 'oh, it's tuesday already?'
Tsatnosk
@inmysocks @Siphonay it's obviously a wednesday. Why would dock workers strike on a tuesday? :P
(The paper says wednesday)
@inmysocks @zatnosk my favorite headline news on this is "National soccer team scored more goals to win the game"
@Siphonay It feels like the typical Pixar, ultra idealized version of the world. Like, look how quaint and beautiful things are, but also they have smartphones, but no one is an edgelord.
@Siphonay Yeah. I’ve also noticed they don’t like certain kinds of movies either. Like superhero.
@Siphonay i didn't mean to misread "CinemaSins" as "CineMasins" but I'm sticking with that now because he has lost the right to a sensible title he's a dingus.
