Chicken Little

There has been quite a buzz around the halls of Disney regarding their latest feature animated film, Chicken Little. Some are saying it's the best all-CGI feature-lengh cartoon Disney has produced in-house. Others are calling it a wake-up call for people who fall asleep in theaters. And although the jury is still out -- what with only 17% of top film critics having turned in their positive reviews -- there is a strong feeling that Chicken could go down in history, one way or the other!

Some thing, though, are not so subjective and open to debate. For example, take a look at these statistics about the film, taken from yesterday's press release about the movie's spectacular first weekend:

1) Chicken Little is the second Disney feature to be based on one of Walt Disney's original Silly Symphonies (the other was "The Nightmare Before Christmas," based on the award-winning short "Skeleton Dance.")

2) A record number of people were fired to make this film possible.

3) It has the longest all-dialogue joke about pee ever committed on film.

By the way, there is already a buzz in Hollywood that a precident-setting voicework-only best actor Academy Award nomination may be in store for Adam West thanks to his brilliant performance.

I'll have more news as it becomes available!
