lowdown: Disney's attempt at Computer animation sans Pixar. 

low expectation:   
         A bunch of aliens invade a strange planet with talking animals.  I'm rooting for the aliens, because there's nothing creepier than a little CGI chicken who wears glasses, stripey t-shirts and has teeth.  Why does the chicken have teeth?  So he can eat chicken nuggets, of course.
      The other day I saw a McDonalds commercial for Chicken Little tie-in Happy Meals.  Now all I can think of is how little kids are eating Chicken Little nuggets.  See what happens when Disney doesn't have Pixar?  Pixar wants you to be able to play with its tie-ins.  Disney wants you to eat its characters.  I am looking forward to the Bambi 2 jerky because venison jerky is really good.

official synopsis:
     This time the sky really is falling in Walt Disney Pictures' new computer animated film CHICKEN LITTLE. This epic tale presents a new twist to the classic fable of a young chicken who causes widespread panic when he mistakes a falling acorn for a piece of the sky. In this hilarious adventure, Chicken Little is determined to restore his reputation. But just as things are starting to go his way, a real piece of the sky lands on his head! Suspense, chaos, and plenty of laughs ensue as Chicken Little and his band of misfit friends, Abby Mallard (aka Ugly Duckling), Runt of the Litter and Fish Out of Water, attempt to save the world without sending the town into a whole new panic. This time, when it comes to saving the world, it helps to be a little chicken.

Expectation Key


there's no possible way I will ever see this

I might eventually see this but I'm not really expecting much

anticipating the release of this one but I'm sure to be left unsatisfied

such high expectation of this film only leaves room for disappointment
