Hoping Chicken Little is a dismal flop
 

A movie about freaking Chicken Little!? What's next? The movie version of Little Ms. Muffet?

Disney certainly has fallen a long way since their artistic revival of the late eighties and nineties. It seems they make most of their money these days by lame sequals which spit on the memory of the classic originals. Dumbo 2, Peter Pan 2, Cinderella 2, The Little Mermaid 2, 101 Dalmations 2; how blantantly commercial can they get?

IS this the same as our Chicken Licken? Where the sky is falling in? With the other bizarre names like henny penny and goosey loosey??

yes & my 6 yr old wantd to see this real bad~ it looks cute~

There was a Dumbo 2?! :confused: :laugh:

I don't remember there being a Dumbo 2:shrug:

The sequels usually are distributed only on video, and I don't see anything bad in them: it makes children happy to find their heroes in new adventures, like with Mickey Mouse.

Why would you hope it's a flop though, just because you think it's a stupid idea? Brace yourself then, because during the previews they showed a trailor for a Little Red Riding Hood animated movie. I forget the title, but it looks hysterical. It's like CSI meets Red Riding Hood. There is a detective and he has to get the truth by having all the characters tell their side of the story.
Anyway, I think you jumped the gun with your feelings on Chicken Little. It seems like you just wrote it off as a film based on it's original story. Of course if they just did a film sticking to that storyline it would be very weak. Still, to "hope" it's a flop seems kind of rotten.

I saw it, and it was pretty good. They actually put a very creative spin on the Chicken Little story. The little kids in the theater loved it, and there were a good amount of jokes geared towards the adults to keep them happy too.

You aren't exactly the target audience for such animated features, are you?

Good point. I was thinking the same thing. Would I go see it, no. but that doesnt automatically make it a bad movie

Lmao!!
 

Okay, I so wanna see this! Who are the voices, do you remember? I guess I could go look it up for myself. :rolleyes: LOL

Chicken Little looks cute and cartoons today are hysterical because of the adult jokes they put in them. Toy Story is my fave movie of all time. :)

Zach Braff, Don Knotts, Patrick Stewart, Fred Willard, Cahterine O'Hara, and Adam West? Why can't they get these actors to star in a real-people movie together? I'd be all over that in a second.

All three of them are favorites of mine. Some of the funniest people out there.
