Chicken Little

I don't know-- I had no idea what you were talking about. Saw the words "mature" and "disturbing" and a mental alarm went off, that's all.

I can't recall the exact words but what he meant was that the new Zorro movie will be focused on love, relationships and responsibility

Sounds like a Spider-Man film.

I love the new posters posted on the main page. They definitely get your attention. I am more and more intruiged by this film. I think it could be really good. Can't wait 'till it comes out. I used to be sceptical but it looks solid.

I hope soooo badly that more people begin to feel that way. To be honest, I don't know why people are so skeptical about Chicken Little. The early reviews have been positive, the campaign thus far has been solid... the film really deserves more respect than it is getting for the time being.

As for the posters, I like them too, in that they will definitely attract Chicken Little's target audience. Plus, they are very eye-catching.

I've been interested in it, ever since I saw the friggen NEAT trailer.

I think what most people are skeptical of is not so much the movie itsself, it's more Disney's decision to stop making 2d and do CG only, they take their frustration out on Chicken Little by saying it's gonna suck and that they made a mistake and bla bla bla. Ever since I heard it's being directed by Mark Dindal I've been looking forward to it more and more. I love New Groove, I hope he works his comedy magic on this film as well.

Shame they're not doing the same for Valiant. It's a good little movie that deserves more than the drop-in-the-middle-of-summer release date Disney is giving it.

Plus, releasing it under the Touchstone label ensures that it won't get that extra boost due to the Disney name as well.

The only thing I can think of is that they are doing this to bungle Valiant's release and cause a flop so that it will make ChickLit that much more "successful".

Like the new posters though.

yeah, 'cause we all know nothing should stand in the way of Disney Feature Animation's big return to financial succes. And looking at their track record, I don't think it will be all that hard to top every film since Lion King. The highest grossing Disney flick since Lion King was Tarzan with $170 million. Since they are throwing an over the top promotional campaign and the fact that people mistake Chicken Little for being Pixar, I don't see the sky falling anytime soon. It's a shame Valiant will be sacraficed along the way. Can't wait to see Valiant, hope it's as good as you say it is. It looks fun.

Just asking, but is "Valient" getting a wide release in the US?

Post by **Ben** » April 8th, 2005, 9:02 am

Yep, through Disney's Touchstone Pictures, in August.

Then I just might go see it.

I've always thought that Chicken Little looked pretty good to me. I think the story idea is very, very funny and I really look forward to seeing this one. Oh, and Zach Braff doing the voice is a major, major PLUS! This guy is hillarious (see Scrubs on NBC). I'm confident it will do very well.
