Thank you for interviewing him! What a wonderful Q&A session, such a knowledgeable and lovely man!

[@angelbarrios426]

15:37 Those words from him are a good advice not just for animators but for anyone who has creative ideas to develop into stories. Great interview 👍.

[@ianwhitlock757]

Another great interview Andy and really nice to hear Sam talk so openly about his experiences directing the film. It's a side of him few got to see with the constant pressure of keeping all the departments fed over the years it took to complete. Hopefully it won't take too long for us to get the chance to do it all again on another project with him.

I loved the movie you did a great job making it

[@ivanbozhkov1105]

Hi! Thank you Andie to sharing genius movie and director to us, I know Chicken Run because of you, and now I fell in love with it! 🤗

[@cshayy]

My sons aunt bought the grumpy cloud flipbook for christmas. He is so happy. Merry Christmas

[@dratenik7]

Yes, I've learnt that myself that when you are developing a story or just an idea for story, don't think on how are you going to create it with all the technical stuff. Now you are creating a story so everything else must go out from your head. And only after it, you are adjusting technical stuff to story and what you are actualy capable of in making the movie.

I got to see the movie and I loved it. You guys did an amazing job

[@Ilovelegowoodywoodpeckerset]

5:46 Wow my childhood lFlushed Away” we need sequel Sam Fell or Something Else like Series Title interesting 🧐 story about the end what is gonna happen? Flashbacks a lot

[@Wade4Kni7ght]

I love how you two just talk about the movie how the stop motion works so cool and how does it feel releasing chicken run 2, I haven't watched it yet?😢

[@danthehurlingguy5dabest]

The movie is really good and entertaining and I looked out for your animation it was goood

[@Informal_Jester]

Something I find interesting and dark about the farm and how it works, to me it just metaphoricly reminds me of how today we live in a society that has been indoctrinated, forced, or even manipulated into woke/lefty ideologies making us think the things that are evil and may destroy humanity are now suddenly good, while the things that are good and have kept humanity from destruction are now suddenly seen as evil being called hate speech, fascism, communism, bigotry, phobic, etc. Now I get that this movie probably wasnt made to show that but I seriously just find it very comparitive.

[@splat-is-me]

Just too say I bought your starter kit today.

[@michellelin2377]

Congrats to the first one!

[@brohne]

The 20th person to comment ❤❤❤ But I love the concept!

[@TheFlashStickman]

I'm not gonna lie, the movie was pretty mediocre. The animation, flawless as to be expected from Aardman. But the humor, it just felt kinda rehashed and unoriginal, unlike the first film, which I absolutely adored.

[@floppy3433]

Yeah. The movie wasn’t my favorite. I disliked how they just brought back Mrs. Tweedy when I thought she died at the end of the first. A giant door fell on her!

[@TheFlashStickman]

Honestly one of the biggest gripes I have with the film is the fact that Rocky was reduced to nothing but a bumbling fool. When he first gets over the fence and puts on display complete incompetence followed by what seemingly looks like he's getting captured, Ginger doesn't even bat an eye, like she doesn't even care. In the first film he saved Ginger, twice. This time 'round he didn't do anything. He was the "comedic" relief I guess? I thought the rats were supposed to be that.

[@TheFlashStickman]

And while I'm here I might add, "COCKA-DOODLE-DOO!" was just cringe.

[@MrgamerstyleTURJO]

Sooo cool you got your dream come true
