Happy Feet/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The original has multiple instances of hundreds of penguins dancing at once in rhythm. Sure, it's CGI so it's pretty easy to make for a halfway skilled animator, but it still looks and sounds awesome.
  • The sequel has the spectacular climax where Penguins, Elephants Seals, Krill and a one puffin, together give themselves one more chance to save the Emperor Penguins by pounding and dancing on the ice mass to a magnificent rendition of Queen's "Under Pressure."
  • Prior to that, Erik delivering an epic verbal smack-down to Bryan a la opera.
    • And between these two instances is about twenty seconds of a spectacular rendition of "Rawhide" involving the elephant seals.
