Ratatouille 2 Sequel Idea
I’ve been thinking about what Ratatouille could do for a sequel and I think I finally have an amazing idea.
Months after the first film, La Ratatouille is thriving. The city has accepted a rat can cook and he has reservations every night. Paris then announces a food truck festival for Christmas. Remy builds the most amazing and festival food truck and parks it in the city. Then a food truck pulls up and it is fully automatic with robots. ROBOCHEF.
Their slogan:
“Food, perfected.”
People flock to that food truck because the robotic food tastes just as, if not more amazing. This is classic man (rat) vs. machine. Remy then tries to take down the machine truck, but to no avail. He sneaks into the truck.
He pulls wires.
Unplugs things.
Drops something into the machinery.** **It is repaired quickly each time. He then goes on an adventure to stop the head company behind ROBOCHEF, only to discover, AI robot food is taking over the entire city. It is his mission to then show people why they fell in love with food to begin with. The stories behind it. The human connection.
Remy could approach the robot at the end.
Remy puts a little piece of his Christmas dish on the robot’s serving tray. The robot scans his meal.
The robot analyzes it.
ROBOT:
“Recipe incomplete.”
Remy smiles.
“Exactly.”
The robot can’t quantify the reason someone added an extra pinch of salt because their grandmother used to do it that way.
The first movie is about:
“Anyone can cook.”
The sequel could evolve that into:
“Anyone can cook. But cooking isn’t just about the food.”
That’s the progression for Remy.
Plus Pixar can address AI in this film and the dangers of it.
Thoughts?
