    • Trivia
      The second fully computer generated theatrical movie produced in-house by Disney, rather than being hand-drawn, the first one being Dinosaur (2000). This would be the new style for every Disney animated theatrical movie afterwards, apart from The Princess and the Frog (2009) and Winnie the Pooh (2011).
    • Goofs
      When the scoreboard is seen the beginning of the scene at the game, the scores are: "Taters: 4 2 4 1 2 1 :14 Acorns: 3 2 4 1 3 2 :13" But if the scores are added up, the Acorns score comes to 15.
    • Quotes

      Mayor Turkey Lurkey: [to an alien] Oh, we surrender! Here, take the key to the city!

      [alien zaps the key]

      Mayor Turkey Lurkey: [holds up another key] Key to my car?

      [alien zaps key and car at the same time]

      Mayor Turkey Lurkey: [holds a box of Tic Tacs] Tic Tac?

      [alien zaps Lurkey]

    • Crazy credits
      At the very end of the closing credits, Buck and Chicken Little appear, looking out at the audience. Chicken Little says "Can we get some popcorn on the way out" and Buck points out of the screen and says "I think there's some on the floor". (Note that this scene is only in the 3D version. The 2D version ends with the Walt Disney Pictures logo.)
    • Alternate versions
      The 3D version has many changes to make use of the process:
      • Fireflies were added to the "Where to Begin..." shot, along with the removal of a flare.
      • The "Walt Disney Pictures presents" now has a sky background, and both texts have a drop shadow effect while the top slowly zooms in.
      • A bench was removed when the water tower ball crushed the movie theater.
      • Two extra balls were added during the "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" song.
      • An extra plane was added when Fish Out of Water was re-enacting King Kong.
      • Extra dirt was added when the cow fell to the centerfield.
      • When Chicken Little tries to point at the piece of sky, he now points at the camera instead of the left.
      • When we first see the aliens, their grappling hooks are now moved to the center of the screen.
      • When the aliens switched from their grappling hooks to their knives, the front was rotated so it could look at the camera.
      • Both camera and alien overlays were now stretched to fit the entire image.
      • One of the shots to when the aliens start cracking parts of the fake sky to start their invasion was re-animated, and a bunch of debris was added falling in.
      • Electric sparks were added when the motherships separated. This could possibly have originally been a goof in the 2D version since the sounds of it were left intact.
      • Extra magic dust was added after the characters sing "Don't Go Breaking My Heart," and the credits appear a second early.
      • Credits for the 3D conversion were added, extending the credits to when the music ends.
      • The Disney logo was replaced with a specially made post-credits scene featuring Buck Cluck saying goodbye to the audience and Chicken Little asking if they can have some popcorn once they leave, to which his father replied that there is some on the floor.

    My whole family found it fun and entertaining

    My three kids (15,12 &10) laughed through the whole movie.My 15 year old son laughed so hard he couldn't stop coughing! My husband (who hates to spend money to see movies at the theater) felt it was worth the expense, though he said there were one or two spots where he lost interest. But overall, he felt it was a good all around Disney movie. I thought the message was excellent, and a very accurate portrayal of what kids go through today. I also love a movie that isn't under written with political agendas, crude adult innuendos, or excessive body function humor. Chicken Little is free of all my pet peeves. I would recommend this movie for a fun family outing.
