I'm a guy and I'd prefer Beauty and the Beast. That's mainly because it's the better ride of the two.I'd be very fine with either. Though I do lean a bit more toward Ratatouille because it's more gender neutral.

Although I would counter with the fact that Beauty and the Beast has a large presence in fantasyland in MK. They also have the stage show in DHS. Ratatouille doesn't have anything in WDW.Because boys should only like things with boys as the main character, but girls shouldn't care what gender the main character is, right?
Anyways, Beauty and the Beast is undeniably a better movie than Ratatouille, so I would 100% prefer an attraction based on it.

There is a possibility this ride comes to WDW in Epcot.... this or Ratatouille.
It's kind of a bummer that there's tons of Princess related things is all. It's pretty heavy handed with the girliness. I didn't even consider the gender of the animal, just that it was something a little different is all. Sorry I offended you, wasn't my intent.
Los Angeles will be home to George Lucas' $1-billion museum
Originally this was planned for Chicago but there were numerous protests from neighbors and businesses on Lake Shore Drive.

It looks great!
Well you do have Star Wars Land coming which, if one were to classify things as "boy" or "girl" would be more of a "boy thing". I would think Toy Story Land and Pandora are pretty gender neutral - and certainly not "princess"
The BatB ride sounds like it has the potential to be amazing but does seem like Ratatouille would fit EPCOT/World Showcase better being connected to food and be weird/not ideal for the BatB ride to be in one park while the BatB castle was in another park
I would consider Toy Story to be very male-slanted too. Growing up with Toy Story all of my guy friends (excluding me, I never got into it) LOVED it, but my girl friends (of which I've always had more) hated it. There are probably about as many female characters in Toy Story as Star Wars, and I feel like they're less prevalent. I'm an expert on neither though, so this is purely just perception. I do think Avatar/Pandora is more gender neutral, especially considering the only person I know who's reaction to the movie was "I loved the story" is a woman, which is promising since everyone else I know pretty much said "the graphics are cool but I never need to watch it again."
I think it would be fine to introduce BatB to Epcot, since technically Belle is already there, and all sorts of different Disney IPs have presence in multiple parks. Right now BatB has installations in both MK and HS, as does Little Mermaid and many more. To echo something I said in a different thread though, I'd be happier if Disney updated the BatB Live in HS (perhaps to the new movie's theming, it'd be more on brand for HS & movie making than classic disney fairytales), than if they opened a new attraction elsewhere. Ratatouille might be nice, and I am surprised it has next to no presence in the parks, but for me personally I don't think it needs a whole attraction.
My initial thought was Toy Story was, if anything, "boy" as well, but moved it ti "neutral" to be conservative and not argue the point (definitely think the first movie was more "boy" with Buzz and Woody but with adding Jessie and stuff the universe of "Toy Story" I see as pretty gender neutral)
And I agree they could add BatB there - just thinking of the two I can't really think of anywhere else to put Ratatouille whereas you already have BatB elsewhere so from a "fit the location" standpoint I would put Ratatouille higher, is all (that's why I said "not ideal" - but yes, definitely could have it there)
OK, now this is just rubbing it in!
