Trivia: Near the beginning, when Remy is in the sewers and begins to make his way up to the skyline of Paris, he is startled by a barking dog in one of the apartments. If you pause and look at the silhouette of the dog, it greatly resembles Dug the dog, from the 2009 Disney/Pixar release Up - another precursory nod to an upcoming movie by Pixar. (00:16:35)

Trivia: The number A113 has appeared in every Pixar film. In this one, it appears on the big buff rat who appears when Emile comes with more rats for the food. He is the one who asks "Is there a problem?" The number can be seen on the gold tag on his ear. (01:11:10)

Trivia: When Skinner is driving his car and sees Remmy skittering towards Linguini, but he says it was just his keys, listen to the music playing on the radio. That is the same song that is playing later in the movie, after Skinner is fired.

Question: When Remy is stuck in a cage, chef Gusteau tells Remy he never did. Remy never did what?

Answer: Remy tells the imaginary Gusteau that he's given up, and Gusteau replies that Remy is only as free as he imagines himself to be. Remy counters that he's "sick of pretending" to be a rat for his father and to be a human through Linguini. He then adds that he even pretends Gusteau actually exists, just so he can have somebody to talk to, and that all of Gusteau's responses are what he himself already knows to be true. So when Remy asks, "Why do I need to pretend?" that's when Gusteau tells him, "But you don't Remy. You never did." Which basically means Remy is both a rat, and an extraordinary cook.
