10 Movies That Made You Watch Other Movies

10. Everything Everywhere All At Once - Ratatouille

You shouldn't need any excuse whatsoever to watch Pixar's delightful animated classic Ratatouille, but Everything Everywhere All At Once just went ahead and gave you one anyway.

Protagonist Evelyn (an Oscar-winning Michelle Yeoh) is initially heard misremembering the title and premise of Ratatouille, calling it "Raccacoonie" and claiming that it's about a raccoon, rather than a rat, which sits on a bad chef's head and helps him "cook good."

Naturally this leaves Evelyn's daughter Joy (Stephanie Hsu) mildly annoyed to say the least.

The hilarious payoff to this later, however, is that one of the parallel universes indeed features a teppanyaki chef, Chad (Harry Shum Jr.), with a raccoon on top of his head helping him cook. 

And better yet, Evelyn even later helps rescue Raccacoonie from animal control, because why the hell not?

Even if you've seen Ratatouille many times before, this was a welcome nudge to revisit it once more, and if you'd somehow got to 2022 without seeing it, it was the perfectly unhinged invitation.
