chicken little was a success (in box office) and it was the only reason why pixar still makes movies for disney

I think they should put this movie back into production. Especially when you consider that Wreck-It Ralph was originally a cancelled film from the 90s called High Score.

Also Fun fact: In an earlier version of Chicken Little, there would be no aliens and Chicken Little was a girl. The story would follow a female chicken suffering from paranoia who, as a result, caused several panic outbreaks in her hometown. Not only becomes a freak to the town, but becomes unforgiven to her father. In order to build her confidence, she was sent to a summer school known as Camp Yes-You-Can where she met her friends who were the same as in the final product, although the Ugly Ducking was at this point a male. Unbeknownst to Chicken Little and her friends, the sheep who ran the camp were wolves in disguise who were plotting to eat all of the students. Chicken not must fave her fears to become a hero, but must proove her dad she can make him proud. A basic Coming-of-Age story that Disney later scrapped.

Chicken Little was only a moderate success at the box office. Yet even before Disney bought Pixar, they decided on their own that they shouldn't be making Sherk-like stories, which was why they overhauled Tangled that was still deep in production at the time.

@@newbiegamelover4767 idk what Disney was thinking throwing out this storyline?

@@ursascorner4865 Someone should make a fan-cut out of these scenes and turn it into a better movie

here for it, wish they could bring this concept back (with some less prolematic elements) for that line alone

Same.... but who knows. My favorite Disney movie is 'Beauty and the Beast'. You know it was created originally by Walt, then suddenly archived several varios works and reworks after reworks of the script that was in some storage facility. He made several in fact for Beauty and the Beast throughout his life, but kept throwing them into storage. Why??? Because he couldn't get it to not sound or be boring by the second act. When the people who did write the Beauty and the Beast we know found these scripts. They began using concept he made and making notes, to create the one we know today. They worked through the challenges that Disney himself couldn't. If I recall he even had tried starting people working on it several times, before canceling it, cause he never could get over hurtles in theboriginal tail and make it excitingn or worth the watch. This in itself gives me hope that movies like this, Me & My Shadow, BOO (I secretly was looking forward to that one when I heard of it in 2011 the whole Casper consept in books and movies always apeals to me), etc... May actually be picked up within a decade or even several decades from now, slightly reworked to make it work for the existing audiences and will be picked up again. To be honest, its people like us. If we make our way into the industry that can change it and help bring these projects back. Our generations are capable of this. If enough get into the industry and get enouhh people behind us to state "we want to revive a project" and find ways to fix/solve what the excutives may have been worried about and could be worried about. We may have something. I mean get the original involved if you can. And make soemthing new from it. Retooling only where needed. You never know. There are so many projects that are now beloved classics that had this very thing happen to them. Sometimes it takes a project being set down, then looked at again with fresh eyes years later for it to be realized again. I mean just look at Harry Potter for example. JK tooknover tennyeara to find someone who saw its potential to get it published. An entire decade past, it took fresh eyes of a new decade to get it into production. Just the same thisncan happen to films. For all we know it may come to happen one day.

Hopefully one of these days they could put it back into production like they did with Wreck-it Ralph. For those who don't know Wreck-It Ralph's production went as far as back as a 90s and was originally titled High Score but it later on got canceled.

They should have went with My Peoples I don't know why the name kept changing

@@greenghoul157 they could have even mixed it, 'a few good people' or 'people of the ghost moon' also sound nice.

Some folks will tell you that it just came down to the fact that “Chicken Little” had far better name recognition than “My Peoples.” Which is why Disney then decided to press ahead with production of that Mark Dindal movie rather than continuing with Barry Cook’s film. Despite his project being canceled in favor of Dindal’s, Cook harbored no ill will against his former officemate. “I have nothing against Mark,” says Cook. “He’s been a great friend for a long time, and he’s a very talented director.” Besides, Cook knew Dindal could certainly relate to some of his recent experiences. For instance, Dindal had to rework his original idea for Chicken Little, which once involved a female version of the title character being forced to attend Camp Yes-U-Can after the infamous “sky is falling” debacle.

The Romeo-Juliet twist is probably inspired by the romance between RoseAnne Mccoy and John Hatfield (who pulled a dick move on her in the end). But most folks don’t know about the hatfield-mccoy feud. I was actually pleasantly surprised that FiM had an episode based on their feud. I myself only learned about their feud through a parody from The Andy Griffith show.

@@username-mk4qv There was an episode of Time Squad about, and House of Mouse/Mouseworks did their own version of it.

@@Pepperknight341 Flintstones did one too and I think there was an Arthur episode that had something similar.

Hey that’s my last name lol

With a dash of Toy Story in it.

Yessir

And the infamous Elsa face syndrome. Don't forget about that.

Ikr I wish Disney would experiment more with character design like with how Pixar tried to make Luca look like a Studio Ghibli movie instead of making the characters look the same from movie to movie, Raya and Moana are almost the same character

Probably would've been funnier if the Abe Lincoln doll was the shortest imo, could make for some fun sight gags

@@redpanda6497 and was that before they finalised on her design and they continued using that infamous earlier design was on most promo material and merchandise before they changed it to the final one from the film.

Well this isn't the 1st time Disney bet on the wrong horse. Back when Pocahontas and The Lion King were in production, Disney put the A-Team on Pocahontas and the B-Team on The Lion King because they thought Pocahontas would be a huge hit.

I wouldn’t take much issue with The Emoji Movie if it were just another bad kids movie like Norm of The North, but The Emoji Movie’s big issue (for me) is how shamelessly it celebrates smartphone culture!

I never liked Chicken Little that much, but I kinda dislike it more once I discovered how it originally was going to be like... and also how it replaced THIS super interesting and looking flick.

Yeah I loved it personally growing up but I can see why ppl aren't as fond of it next to other Disney/Pixar stuff. I'm also not salty towards it after watching this video, as it sounds like both films would've existed side by side had those new execs didn't drop the "CG only" mandate or whatever for the movies being produced by that studio

TBF it seems like any mythology that isn't Greek (or Egyptian) don't get any attention here in the West (obviously in the East, they focused on their own mythology). Which sucks because I would really love to see a story inspired by or based upon Native American mythology.

@@kittykittybangbang9367 The West has a Greek kink it’s so annoying. Even Egyptian stories don’t get as much attention

TBF Cartoon Saloon has been bringing Celtic mythology stories into the main stream a lot more recently with “Secret of Kells” “Song of the Sea” and most recent, “Wolf Walkers” there’s also “My Father’s Dragon “ which isn’t confirmed if it’s based on Celtic mythology yet but there’s a high likelihood. There’s also “Brave” from Pixar which, although not as critically acclaimed, had some interesting Celtic mythology inspiration as well.

The 90s wouild by far handle it better than current Disney would. Nowadays they only produce bad stereotypes and since they pander to China heavily they would include minorities only so to be able to delete or censor them later. Not to mention that most complaining of movies in the past comes from white middle age obese female twitter users and unrelevant "news" sources and not actual minorities.

I wish they made a movie called the things you wear on your feet sorry for any misspells.

I mean Disney sorry.

Still upset how dirty they did Atlantis and Treasure Planet. Also Gargoyles.

It was by far better than current Disney though.

Disney hit a rough patch around the early 2000s when other studios were making more money and they were trying to compete with them and transition into CG but they did it pretty badly with several box office flops around this time, I love Treasure Planet and Atlantis though

Actually the bubbles specifically were animated by an overseas company (chinese I think), they almost didn't make the deadline and the little mermaid almost went without bubbles. I don't blame them for being late though, just thinking about having to animate thousands of bubbles makes my toes curl.
