49 free Chicken Little trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Sep 2026.
Chicken Little (2005) was a turning point for Walt Disney Feature Animation: its first fully computer-animated feature, the first mainstream release in Digital 3D, and the film that had to prove to Pixar that Disney could make CG movies on its own. Underneath the acorn jokes is a strange production story — a female Chicken Little voiced by Holly Hunter for eight months, a summer-camp plot, and a rewrite into an alien-invasion comedy. This quiz covers the town of Oakey Oaks and everyone in it: Abby Mallard, Runt of the Litter, Fish Out of Water, Buck Cluck, Foxy Loxy and Turkey Lurkey. It also covers the making-of — the ILM training program, the 76,000 feathers, the View-Master 3D look, the Barenaked Ladies song, the cancelled sequel with a French sheep, and the Kingdom Hearts cameo. Easy questions cover plot and voices; hard ones get into software names, release-date shuffles and award snubs. Fifty questions, every answer checked.
