message: Well, whoever searches for "Ratropolis" in the search, it links to this article, Flushed Away. However, Ratropolis is the working title for this film.  --PJ Pete

message: seems the heinous 149million dollar budget should be mentioned. its the reason for the aardman dreamworks breakup.  http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=flushedaway.htm
"but it would have been too expensive to composite the shots including water, and since the story involves a lot of it, they chose to go all CGI. "
too expensive?  it cost 149 million!!!  talk about flushed away..
:this website says that the actual production budget was $90 million.  It seems that the 149 million figure is the "total cost" and includes a number of other costs such as marketing, etc.  You know, it makes me kinda happy that this CGI film wasn't as cost-effective as Aardman's previous films.  It seems that it's proven now that stop motion costs MUCH less than CGI and is a better investment.  Hopefully Aardman will go back to doing stop-motion films now. Esn 15:51, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

message: It sounds bizarre since he's the same height as Sid, but my kids were insistent that Roddy was a mouse not a rat. Well lo and behold, according to the official web site he's a mouse. (Go to the official web site http://www.flushedaway.com/flash/index.html and click "View Source" on your brower's menu, and see the in text: "Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust �society mouse� who lives the life of a beloved pet in a posh Kensington flat.". So unless the movie actually calls him a rat, the article should change to say he's a mouse. Rocksong 23:44, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is Roddy a mouse? 

message: I think Roddy and Rita might be in love. There was a small scene in the movie that was in slow motion when Roddy and Rita stared at each other and a love song was playing. In another scene Roddy and Rita were having dinner and the slugs sang a love song. Also in the end of the movie if I remember corectly Roddy almost kissed Rita, but Rita's grandmother interrupted.4.167.214.75 23:40, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Roddy and Rita in love? 

message: The following is in the triva section; 
:"During the World Cup Final sequence, a rat with a Texas accent and ten gallon hat asks where the helmets and quarterbacks are, before finally stating that "these Brits don't know how to play football!" This is a reference to the stereotyped lack of American interest in the World Cup."
::I can assure you that this is the wrong conclusion. The scene actually refers to the tendancy Americans have, of medding in the affairs and traditions that exist outside their borders. This mainly due to the need to make everthing in the world more "American". If you don't believe me then just ask anyone who isn't American / the writers of the scene.(82.43.189.130 17:53, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've lived in both England and America, and from my experience the end would be referencing the fact that americans don't pay attention to football/soccer and don't view it as the real thing. They think american football is the only type of football.  I've had many debates about this I assure you. Barr13 03:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I thought this was an obvious reference, the way the hair sits and jumper colour etc. She also mimics Lara Croft when descending from the high pipe early in the picture.
