Aside from being one of the greatest animated films ever made, Chicken Run has a lot of powerful leftist themes to it.

True, other left wing children's movies are the Lego movie, a bugs life and antz
Oh hellz yes, The Lego Movie is a brilliant visual essay on the power of communism.
As a cinephile, I must say that Antz is superior to A Bug's Life, but both movies have brilliant messages empowering the proletariat against corrupt rule. Antz is just a lot more sophisticated about it.
...
No, the corporations just own the studios that finance the movies to be made under the visions of directors and producers.
Go back to film school, fuckwit.
The fucking bee movie is about a worker that dates out of his class and wages war on the capitalists to get the product of his labor back.
No
When the bee's win against the exploiters they all get lazy and stop working which kills everything, therefore only by permitting themselves to be benevolently exploited are they truly fulfilled.
Bee movie is class collaborationist shit.
I see what this thread is secretly about.
Only if you overanalyze an extreme shitpost movie like Bee Movie in that manner. The message doesn't have any fucking metaphors or anything, we actually need bees to sustain our environment, or else we're all fucked. Simple as that. In fact, it's extremely relevant now that bees are an endangered species.
...
wait, are we talking about the same "bee movie"? I thought it was about the bee cucking Ken (Vanessa's boyf)? Are you telling me there were MARXIST UNDERTONES in a film i just thought was about insect and cuckoldery?
And such corporations will not let their products support ideologies that work against them. We need to get all the rich people, and fucking kill them all, then partition their flesh amongst the people.
It's a shitpost movie, user. It goes in so many fucking directions its plot is hardly linear at all. Barry cucking Ken was just one of many subplots.
Agreed, user. But some corporations just don't pay attention to the movies' themes as long as it makes them money. That's literally the only thing corporations care about in filmmaking. Not whether the movie is good or bad, working for or against them. The only way it can work against them is if it bombs.
...
Pretty sure the first half of the movie was to bait people to get all political and serious about it, and the second half made fun of it by showing it's a simplified kids view of society and grown-ups take things too seriously.
Some parts were really good. Some parts were absolutely disconnected from those.
this post gave me aids
All I remember about this film is the somewhat fucked up Burger King nugget marketing tie-in.
That's disturbing taking into account the movie's own plot
Decades of seeing stuff like this on the butchery made me insensitive to the horrors badly thought marketing.
what the fuck
Look at how they treat Capitalist over-exploitation: youtu.be
Shitposting apart, I have a weird feeling about Wall-E. While it is correctly representing literal Fully Automated Luxury Space Communism as being the consequenece of Capitalism, it also paints in a bad light: humans have become unable of achieving anything, they're all fat, no one is creative anymore, etc.
Also, Chicken Run was an awesome movie, I was so afraid of the woman as a kid it still gives me chills nearly 15 years later.
...
In Wall-E, people are alienated by consumism. The fact that everything is automated and work is abolished, doesn't mean that they even achieved communism, for all we know, the captain might even be a benevolent dictator so at most, they would be socialists.
It's not like all the humanity fits in the ship, it's probable the ship's population it's the 1% and they carry the bourgie ideology.
>Something that is actually espoused by Fascists
What was almost more fucked up is that the marketing tie-in Burger King had for Chicken Run was also used as a sneaky way of roasting Chick-Fil-A, i.e. "Save the chickens by eating more beef!"
Want proof of this? Right here: youtube.com
Well shiyet, for a shitty mockbuster of Bee Movie, that's actually an impressive portrayal of exploitation of the proletariat. Especially how they're aware of the irony of pollinating outside the Lincoln Memorial, working like slaves nearby a testimony to the emancipation of slavery. I'm willing to bet the rest of the movie is a right turd, so unless there's anything else worth looking into, I'll give it a pass.
And yes, user, Chicken Run probably has to be Aardman's best film of all. I loved the hell out of that movie as a kid, and so much of it that I loved as a kid still holds up remarkably well to this day, especially that EPIC swelling musical score. And how about that pie-machine sequence? That must have been a bitch to animate!

I don't even know what to classify you as, but kindly fuck off.
Spoiler:
**There's a revolution at the end, in which they restore the old queen.
Mind you, the queen in insect societies holds no power whatsoever over her offspring, she merely has different function. In many ways, she is but a peer of drones and workers.
The evil queen that has taken over in plan bee disrespects such natural order and implements a new society based on hierarchy and the hoarding of riches, as well as constant growth and zero environmental awareness.**
If you don't really have anything to do, you can watch the movie, but I don't really recommend it. All of the characters have extremely annoying voices, and there's this one which is constantly whining who is legit nightmare fuel due to his horrible animation.
That image makes me want to kill myself. I'm not sure why, but it really bothers me.
Wow, that's actually kind of a thoughtful plot that accurately lines up with the workers' struggle against capitalism/fascism, as well as how unnatural such an establishment is. Don't think it'd compel me to watch the whole thing, though. If someone could post the particularly leftist scenes from the film on YouTube, that'd be awesome. I'd appreciate it.
