I’m not saying that’s why he did it but it could be a big factor, and if he is older now he probably has a lot of trauma thanks to that awful channel and the awful people in it, Poor Emma too, she said she wanted to go back to her home before she met the horrible family; the older kids however are sadists but maybe that’s either their faults or the parent’s faults.

What gets me is that if you changed the character dynamic of the two of them you could have a way better movie. Like, imagine if he was an actual supportive dad who believed in his son and defended him from everyone. He could have a history of being similarly not believed or cared for by the townfolk as a child over something else (which they try to gaslight him into believing never happened) and be wanting to defend and uplift his own son in a way he never had. Maybe the end of his arc would even encompass that somehow.

You know, the life of Chicken Little sounds like the perfect setup for a villain backstory. A child literally being ridiculed and beaten down by everyone around him, and has a worthless father that never supports him. This was more than enough for Chicken Little to harbor hatred for the world. With his new found knowledge of the aliens, he then gets a hunger for retribution by taking advantage of Kirby being lost. As the invasion begins, Chicken Little looks back at all the torment that happened to him in the past, but he doesn't feel any pity for the people, especially his father. Instead, he seethes with pure joy and satisfaction, watching as the world burns. If the writers stuck with that plot, the movie would have been a whole lot better!

It’s really funny how they think that they can spend the majority of their time outside of the house and expect a child to just acknowledge that they are paying for the power and the groceries and every little thing without the context of a larger world to understand that. With them hardly ever talking to you hardly ever acknowledging your existence only really coming to speak to you if there’s a problem. They never teach you anything they never comfort you they never give you any wisdom when you’re stressed. But because they paid the power bill we’re supposed to just understand their “unconditional” love.

[@twentyonetortas5921]

I'm sorry that you've dealt with a crappy self-absorbed and unaware father. I hope that now and long into the future, you'll have people genuinely care, love, support, and accept you as you are. If not now, then I hope you'll learn that it's alright to believe in yourself and be your own support system in the meantime. The wrong people will never bother to recognize how amazing you are, how much you've improved, and/or properly show support as their heads are shoved so far up their butts. So I hope that you're not seeking your father's praise and support because based on your comment, he should not be needed or wanted. Like who the hell would take criticism from the same person you certainly wouldn't go to for advice? And who wants support from a guy that's doing nothing?

[@superfanmusicmaker]

The really fucked up part about them making a board game, a movie and all the other merchandise directly based on what Chicken Little did, is the fact that they realistically wouldn’t have been able to do that without Chicken Little or his parent/guardian’s permission. So there’s a very good chance that Buck *agreed* to let them make all this merchandise mocking his son and is probably getting royalties from it.

I've noticed that they seem to treat CL's being undersized like a disability, both in and out of universe. In universe, the issue of him being as small as he is seems like it's always being tiptoed around, like "as long as we don't outright make fun of him being a shrimp, we can hold our heads high while still ridiculing him because at least we're not ablest". Buck is a former star athlete of his school days who wanted his son to be a big, burly jock like him, and is openly ashamed of having an imperfect child who apparently can't do sports. Out of universe, it's used in joke after joke until CL needs to be cool, at which point the smallness becomes a plus when he improvises, which feels suspiciously like an autistic child who is a prodigy at the piano or a talented artist as a 'silver lining' to their condition. I might be reading too deep into it, but it's just a thought that makes the town's attitude even worse.

Despite how much people dump on this movie, it did strike something of a chord for me as a kid. Belive it or not, people like the protagonist actually exist and this movie is kind of validating for anyone who's experienced that kind of treatment. My Dad wanted a football player and ended up with my asthmatic self instead. I was always told to sit down and shut up in order for him to "save face," attract as little attention as possible, even when I would TRY to participate in sports just to please him anyway just for his disappointment in return. I was always looked at by the people proximal of those situations as kind of a geek and a loser. I knew exactly what it felt like to be this main character. It's almost kind of funny that it gets so much criticism because in a meta way, the film is the "chicken little" of films that gets picked on so much. It gets accused for the town being needlessly cruel and the father being horribly degrading but that's... kind of the point? To me, that's the most realistic thing about this movie. I've lived that experience. And ironically I think the films' strongest strength is that sort of message. That the people we go out of our way to belittle and mistreat often don't deserve it and we should be a little more considerate or supportive. If Bionicpig sees this and is looking for more early to mid 2000s movies to review, I'd like to formally submit my recommendation for Over the Hedge. No other reason than nostalgia.

[@paolaanimator]

They’re not “supposed to be” who you want them to be. They can be whoever they want, and so they might not be your “ideal” child.

I also never understood why Buck went out of his way to drop off Chicken Little at a bus stop in the beginning of the movie when he could have just as easily drove him directly to the school to avoid all of the nonsense Chicken Little had to go through in the opening. Amazing song aside, Buck was obviously already driving him far enough away from their house, so why couldn't he just drop him off right at the school instead? Was he so ashamed of being seen publicly with his son, that he refused to drop him off a couple extra miles down the road?

[@michelleschrock9141]

And his son wouldn't loose his pants when he crossed the road and accidentally got stuck in a pice of sticky gum.

Chicken Little is like a very bad version of Shrek. Dreamworks was founded by ex-Disney creatives with Shrek basically being an "Anti-Disney" movie.

I honestly cannot see why I was so obsessed with it, I think it was just one of those random things I decided was going to be my life for the next 6 months to a year along with Happy Feet and Xiaolin Showdown. I definitely was well aware of how shitty Chicken Little was being treated in the movie and idk maybe that was why I liked it (I was bullied a lot so maybe I related to him???) but rewatching it as an adult, I fully realized how almost unwatchable and cringe inducing it is.

The fact Chicken Little was originally going to be a girl makes me a little sad. Like they could've kept the mother dead and make it so that the father is trying to raise a young girl, who's more into "masculine" activities like sports, games etc. But the town puts a lot of emphasis on the fact that people should be put into certain boxes based on how they look, and because of these standards the father feels like it is his fault his daughter is more of a tomboy. And the whole sky is falling thing could be how the town twisted one of Chicken Little's more "masculine" interests, making her the crazy lady of the town. edit: And now that I think about it, they could make the fox a into a parallel of Chicken Little, who has to do more masculine things because of her body type, while wishing to be more feminine. Would make a way better character arc than.... mindwashing her...

Actually the original story wouldnt have been the same at all, it would have been about Chicken Little going to summer camp and stoping literal Wolves in Sheeps clothing…..the sky falling was just gonna be an Acorn and she was Prone to Panic Attacks :| that was the original idea….if u look into it the person who came up with the original idea says this is the idea. We have a TON of TV shows and Movies from the 90s and Early 2000s showing that its okay to dress and behave how you want, one of my fav charas from that Area is from the show “Recess” and is a tomboy who also enjoys some girly stuff, not saying we didn’t(dont) need more but I am saying that that was over done at the time that’s probably why he would’ve gone with more of the story he was going to go with rather then the “single dad raising a daughter whos a tomboy and he blames himself cause she gets made fun of”

This movie made me cry as a kid. It still kind of gets to me because I felt a lot of pressure to live up to a higher standard than most of my family-graduating high school and going to university. Most of my family had to drop out of school to get a job and look after their kids. My mum made me work extra hard and is part of why I got so sick from stress when I already have Ulcerative Colitis.

If you think it's unrealistic that massive groups of people would bully a little kid, you've never been on the internet when you were a kid. People fucking hate kids. Hell, not even just online, I got stories upon stories about my own childhood.

[@durratulaishah3703]

I remember reading somewhere people don't want kids because "crying and yelling are the only things they do", Or "kids are cringy" or smtg like that. (I'm not sure if it counts)

Remember when Smash fans bullied a little girl for beating a pro as Isabelle?

We literally have feminists killing their kids before they're even born.

Nothing stamps "I HATE CHILDREN" on a persons head more than becoming a politician.

[@ivyg6178]

I feel sorry for the little rooster ☹️ I know it's a movie for kids and it ends more or less happily, but still. There is something sad and dark that isn't adressed properly.

Damn it sounds like Buck Cluck and Odin could go bowling together or something. Buck Cluck doesn't defend his son from relentless bullying, Odin does the same thing. Now I can't get the image of Chicken Little using the aliens to destroy the town
