Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Disney's first fully computer-animated film without Pixar, and they were clearly trying to prove something. The alien designs were reportedly changed last-minute to be less scary for test audiences.
The 'sky is falling' panic metaphor accidentally predicted how we'd all behave online by 2020. Also, this film's marketing bombarded us with that one image of Chicken Little's massive head for months.
