... View More. . . is right twice a year, and Disney's CHICKEN LITTLE accurately forecasts D.J. Trump's total eclipse of the Son. Disney casts the title character here as Lowest Common Denominator Trump, but the brains behind the curtain belong to the Steve Bannon-like Foxy Loxy, whose Bible is the Breitbart Playbook. As Bannon, Foxy guides Little's Trump into bamboozling his logically-challenged flock of mostly Red State Chickens. Little is the reigning local yo-yo champ, presaging Trump's hourly vacillations between Bad and Worse. Little proves to be inordinately proud that its dad Fred ran for the Presidency of the KKK, and that another Grand Imperial Gizzard (Beauregard Sessions, played here by Cocky Locky) is in charge of Making America White Again. Foxy soon lures all the Trumpster Chickens into his Death Cave, which becomes a graveyard of wishbones. This suggests that God will Punish our formerly Great USA for allowing its KKK takeover by having the sky fall on us (presumably, a North Korean EMP blast from Outer Space). As Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Maria, and Nate bear out CHICKEN LITTLE's Cries of Doom, who could argue with the Disney folks?
... View MoreTo really understand this cartoon you will need to know who was the main masters of propaganda of communism, like Antonio Gramsci, Lenin, Marx etc. All the lines read from the RED book are instruction of how insert ideas in the minds of the society, taken from the books written by these socialists. It is a manual of a Cultural War, and the western Christian world is right now loosing this war.See this: "Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity. In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society."
... View MoreThis Disney short is a bit preachy, but in its original incarnation, it was a lot more obvious and a lot more dated. That's because Walt felt that the obvious references to WWII would date the film. In hindsight, although the film isn't perfect, it does hold up pretty well today.This is a retelling of the old story of Chicken Little. It's pretty obvious that it was meant to be a metaphor for spreading and believing rumors during wartime, but no mention is made of the war--just Chicken Little and all his stupid poultry friends believing ANYTHING that the wicked Fox tells them. I give this one a 7 despite the dated theme. Why? Because the Fox is a great character and I loved the very dark and twisted ending. Well worth your time.One negative, by the way, was the film's use of repetitive animation. Like the lower quality Hanna-Barbera films of the 60s, you see the same images again and again--in the hopes that the audience wouldn't notice this. I certainly did.
... View MoreI remember reading the 'Chicken Little' book as a child but this cartoon turns it on its head with one eye on the time it was made, 1943, during the Second World War.The sly and hungry Foxy Loxy reads from a text which describes how to lie and cheat your neighbours - in this case to persuade Chicken Little and others than the sky is falling, and so the world is about to end.It showcases the power of propaganda, panic and persuasion to achieve an aim (Foxy of course wants a hearty supper of chickens and ducks). Cocky Locky is the political leader who gets depicted as a fool, while Henny Penny and her cronies spread gossip and hysteria.A clever cartoon, perhaps too sophisticated for children, but enjoyable on some levels to a younger audience with a bit of forethought, a bit like 'Animal Farm'.
