Indeed, the French did do a lot to inform the world about democracy and revolution. One guy, however, seems to have missed the memo. That is who we’ll be discussing today.

Chef Skinner was the main antagonist of Disney’s 2007 film, Ratatouille. And he was a tyrannical villain.

  1. hopper from bugs life is a better tyrannical villain.bugs life itself is kinda mid but hopper is so much better imo.

  2. Dude, you popped up on my for you page just 3 days ago, and i absolutely love you. I've watched all your videos and can't get enough!

  3. I can't Believe you Mentioned Albert Camus and Antonio Gramsci, two of them are Brilliant Individuals who Criticised Oppressive Societies, Especially Capitalism!

  4. Great analysis. Although I see Skinner as more of a "comedic villain". But both can work. He is comedic and tyrannical.

  5. Gousteau: represents democratic values
    Skinner: is a mini-dictator to contrast
    Linguini: is literally the rightful King trope

  6. Linguini and skinner height represents there true power over the restraint, skinner is intimidating but short (little true power) while linguini in timid but tall (lot of power) and until linguini meets remi hes slouching only after does he stand up straight

  7. To be fair, the french became TOO democratic, since deriving too much power simply from the will of the most people is a recipe for tyranny. Even in a country that is largely made up of the same ethnicity, language, etc, they have been very politically unstable since 1789, with even relatively long lasting establishments like the fifth french republic being an incredibly divisive place, and it looks like they are on the verge of the SIXTH french republic.
