Why did Chicken Run never reach the meme tier status that it deserved? Is it because it's a primarily British production with British jokes and the internet is dominated by Americans? The film is pure gold, right up there with Wallace and Gromit quotes like, "I'm in bread, myself."

>It's a pie machine, you idiot. Chickens go in, pies come out.
>Ooh. What kind of pies?
>Apple.

>Me life flashed before me eyes... It was really boring.

>We slipped into the farmer's room, all quiet like.
>Like a fish.
>Yeah, and we... "Like a fish"? You stupid norbert.

>Well, here she is. Ask and you shall receive.
>That's Biblical.

>Mrs. Tweedy! THE CHICKENS ARE REVOLTING!
>Finally, something we agree on.

Best exchange in the movie.

The vidya was bretty good too, the Miss Tweety game over screen was terrifying though.

I really loved that movie as a kid. I think I'll have to visit my parents and get the dvd now.
Giving me the feels here man

OP i adore this movie, i watch it every christmas. Bunty is my fave.

fuck i know you were making a meme thread but i love this film so much.

I loved this movie when I was a kid. I'd probably love it more now that I'm older. I remember when Burger King had chicken nuggets shaped like Ginger. I had a kids meal toy of her when she's trying to dig her way out with the spoon and you wind her up on her board and she rolls.

it is a metaphor for the holocaust

>kids meal toy of her when she's trying to dig her way out with the spoon and you wind her up on her board and she rolls.
that's awesome

OP here. It's a brilliant, brilliant film. Stuff like Shaun the Sheep is fantastic, but lacks the sharp writing of Chicken Run.

How do I write like that? I fucking love the humour in it

>I don't want to be a pie!.... I don't like gravy.

Giiiiiiiiiiiiinger!

Roooooooocky!

*cocky salute*

It was good, but I didn't like stop motion much as a kid and my siblings and I liked the Great Escape more.

>I'm going to give them what I promised.
>But it is nothing.
>And that is what I will give.

it has to be the british accents. here in Mexico they play it dubbed in spanish all the time so people just see it like any other animated movie. it even has the memey title "Pollitos en Fuga"

>I didn't like stop motion much as a kid
christ what?
it's amazing. fair enough if you don't like it but my god it made the movie what it was.

Is Edwina going on holiday?

user you made me laugh

...

what are some other movies with this kind of humour? obviously not flushed away and wallace and groomit cause i've already watched it

It does have its roots in classic British comedy. Stuff like Ripping Yarns and Fawlty Towers, for example.

>implying that it didn't reach meme status

...

It breaks my heart how few people nowdays know about Ripping Yarns. Some of the best comedy ever put to film.

Too right, brother! Epic keks and shadilay to you, good sir!

Tomkinson's Schooldays is legit kino

I just realized Mel Gibson is the main voice.

The game was scary and I didn't like it.

For some reason I always thought Victoria Wood did the voice of the MC.

Also Murder at Moorestones Manor.

"That bloody Oscar Wilde."

"Oh, I know." *Unfathomable glance* "I know."

HUGO'S BEEN MURDERED?

for fucks sake can you faggots leave anything alone? why do you have to ruin things?

I like this movie too.

The only reason I remember this is because when I was 11 some black kid with one eyebrow who smelled like chocolate chip cookies came up to me and told me he had a mouse in his pocket. He then showed me a figure of the Hugh Jackman mouse

o im the kind of guy

weird year
I remember going to theater to watch ratatouille then this the same year
the rat year

bitch

>meme tier status
that is supposed to be a good thing?

it's a good film
>they's is organized!

dude this did. I remember everyone (10 year olds) quoting this and raving about it after it came out.

Loved this film, still do. Fully deserving of meme status.

Honestly what if Sup Forums banned all reddit related posts what the fuck would everybody do?

>>We slipped into the farmer's room, all quiet like.
>>Like a fish.
>>Yeah, and we... "Like a fish"? You stupid norbert

but fish are quiet, what's the joke here

HILLARY DECLARES WAR ON PEPE THE FROG

What the fuck was the name of the Christmas reindeer movie that was in this style?

My first fap as a kid was to the anthropomorphic deer boobs

it's a weird analogy. also a fish outside the water doing what they did would make noise

Bloody Americans, late for every war.

i had a crush on rita

You said it yourself. It was way too good to become a meme.

They would blame 9gag insteasd

I loved it as a kid, must be at least 15 years since I last saw it, you're making me want to rewatch it.

>I told you they was organised

I like the school episode and WW1 episode, but some of them were too dry for me.

When I got my wisdom teeth removed last year I watched this in bed. Ultimate /comfy/
