But just as things are starting to go his way, a real piece of the sky lands on his head. 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.

Oh, dear goodness. We are so very sorry.

We are. And if it hadn't been for your son there, well, we might have vaporized the whole planet.

What?

Goodness! What a shame that would have been.

Where else would we pick our acorns?

We stop on the way to the in-laws. Every year.

Looked on all the other planets. You only find them on Earth.

Just as it says here on your primitive graphic display.

That caught our eyes.

OK, everything's been put back to normal, except for this one, over here.

Hi, y'all!

Foxy?

She got her brainwaves scrambled during reconstitution.

No worries! We can put her back the way she was.

No! She's perfect.

Scary. Whoops!

Darling! Look at the time! We better get a move on.

All right, then. It was good meetin' ya.

Sorry for the whole full-scale invasion thing.

But, hey, I'm a dad. You know how it is with your kids.

When they need ya, you do whatever it takes.

There goes that panel again.

Every year we come, this thing falls off.

Someday it's going to hit somebody on the head.

Nonsense!

You can't return the panel.

Now that's ridiculous. You threw away the receipt again.

Silence!

Melvin, did you just try and use the big voice on me?

Um... uh...

Who we talkin' about?

So I'd like to see the movie they make about you now.

So I'd like to see the movie they make about you now.

I just hope they stay true to what really happened.

Oh, son, these people are from Hollywood!

Oh, son, these people are from Hollywood!

One thing they'll never do is mess with a good story.

Is mess with a good story.

Red alert! Man your battle stations!

Status report, Mr. Fish.

Commander Little, the evil Foxloxian Army has broken through the planet's atmosphere.

But that means...

Yes, I know. The sky... is falling.

Commander Little! No!

Please... call me...

...Ace.

Oh, Ace! No!

I never intended to bring you into this... Abby.

Runt, do you copy? - Yes, commander?

Runt, my friend, an alien fleet is about to invade Earth.

Civilization as we know it depends on me and, to a lesser extent... you.

So I've just got one question for you:

Are you ready to rock?

Ain't no mountain high enough, ain't no valley low...

Raise your pork shield, Runt. Prepare to engage.

Stay on target. Stay on target!

Give 'em a taste of the other white meat!

- Cap'n! Look out!

Runt!

Runt, are you all right?

No, no. Ya gotta go on without me, commander.

Just leave me some ammo, a little water, some chips if you have 'em.

This is amazingly accurate.

He was my good friend.

Oh, Abby.

At least I still have you... Abby.

- Ace! - Abby.

- Ace! - Abby.

Ace!

Good people of Oakey Oaks.

Though at times it may feel like the sky is falling around you, never give up.

For every day... is a new day!

A new day!

Oh, Ace!

Come on, Runt. You can do it.

I won't go breaking your heart You got to act quickly, Dad. Try this.

There you go!

There it is!

I'm having fun now!

That was great!
