Rock-a-Doodle (1991)

Post by bunniefuu »

[narrator] Once upon a time,

back before I knew
how to tie my shoes,

the sun came up.

Now, I know an
everyday sunrise

may not seem like
such a big deal to some folks,

but imagine for a moment

if instead of rising up,

like this,

one morning
where you lived

she took a look around

and decided
to go back to sleep.

It happened once to us.

Let me tell you
all about it...

[Chanticleer]
♪ Cock-a-doo ♪

♪ Hoo hoo hoo hoo ♪

♪ Whoa ♪

♪ Yo-da-lay-ee ♪

♪ Cock-a-doo what a day ♪

♪ The sun is shinin' brightly ♪

♪ Cock-a-doo sunny day ♪

♪ Down here on the farm ♪

♪ Cock-a-doo stay away ♪

♪ You big ole
Wet ole rain cloud ♪

♪ Or I'll cry out loud
With this voice of mine ♪

[narrator] This was
our rooster,Chanticleer.

And though it was true

that he liked to
horse around some,

the fact was,
that boy could sing!

♪ Sun, sun, sun
Sun do shine, sun do shine ♪

♪ Well, my daddy
Taught me how to sing ♪

♪ And that's why
This voice means everything ♪

[narrator] We all had
our jobs on the farm,

and Chanticleer's
was to wake up the sun.

and when he crowed,
up she came!

Hey, look,
here's me tyin' my shoes.

Hi, Patou.
Whatcha doin'?

I'm tryin' to tie
these doggone shoes!

Huh! Again?

Well, hi, ladies.

Oh, he's so handsome!

He sings
like a dream!

He is a dream.

And he's single, too!

[Patou]
He maybe wasn't
the smartest bird

that ever lived,
but when he crowed,

there was plenty
of peace and harmony.

Hey!

Well, plenty
of harmony, anyway.

And lots of sunshine!

♪ Well, my daddy
Taught me how to sing ♪

♪ That's why this voice
Means everything ♪

♪ Sun do shine
You better shine ♪

♪ Well, the sun do shine

-♪ You better shine ♪

♪ You better shine ♪

♪ Sun, you better shine ♪

♪ Dik-a-dik-ca
Ca-dik-a-dik-a-down-down ♪

[all laughing]

[Patou]
There was no doubt about it,

old Chanticleer

kept us animals
up and shining.

[all]
Good day, Mr. Chanticleer.

But all that
was about to change.

One morning,

before Chanticleer
was even awake,

-a stranger snuck
onto our farm...
-Hey, Chanticleer!

...to stop Chanticleer
from crowing!

Of course, Chanticleer
wouldn't give up

without a fight.

But what he didn't know
was that this stranger

had been sent
by the Grand Duke of Owls.

A nasty fella.

The good news here

was that Chanticleer
had won the fight.

The bad news was
the Grand Duke's bully

had done his dirty deed.

For in all the commotion,

Chanticleer had plum forgot
to crow,

and the sun was comin' up
without him.

[animals gasp]

When Chanticleer saw this,
it broke his heart.

He reckoned maybe his crow
never did raise the sun.

Look! It's comin' up
without him!

You're a phony!

[man] He's a fake!

Hey, everybody,
cock-a-doodle-doo!

The Grand Duke's evil plan
had worked.

He had turned us against
our very best friend.

And without a reason to crow,

poor Chanticleer
left the farm

to look for work in the city.

Then came the rain,

and our troubles
with the Duke.

[Edmond]
Who's that, Mom?

[Mother]
That's the Grand Duke.

He's the one who's
causing all the trouble.

He sent that mean old rooster
to Chanticleer's farm

to pick a fight.

Hmm. How come?

Because he didn't
like Chanticleer

doing all that crowing

and bringing up
the sun.

How come?

Well, like most owls,

he likes the darkness
and the rain.

I'm not afraid
of the dark.

[gasping]

Oh, it's you!

You scared me!

Dorie, we got
big problems.

Have you looked out there?
If that rain doesn't stop,

we're all gonna go
floatin' down the river!

[Patou]
This is my favorite part
of the story.

His name is Edmond.

'Course, he didn't look
quite like this

when I first met him.

Anyhow, we weren't
the only folks

havin' our troubles.

Poor Edmond's family
was havin' their share, too.

The river's
rising too fast!

We've got to
reinforce the sandbags!

You think
that'll work?

We'll make it work.
I'll get the boys.

Me, too!

You stop
right there.

Oh, Mom,
I'm one of the boys.

He meant
the big boys.

I'm big enough.

Not yet
you're not, darling.

[radio]
The U.S. Weather bureau

is expecting another night
of disastrous downpour

in the areas worst hit
by this week's flooding.

[Dad] Scott! Mark!

Bring the truck
around to the front!

Come on, guys,
move it, I need some help.

We gotta get
the animals inside.

[Patou]
So while Scott and Mark

got to help protect the house

against the flood,

poor Edmond was left behind
where he'd be safe

and out of trouble.

It's my house, too.
I want to help.

Then pray for
the rain to stop,

and that will help.

[Dad]
Dorie, I can't find
the flashlight!

Coming.

Now, you stay here
where it's safe, pumpkin.

I'm gonna help your father.
I'll be right back.

Great, let's go.

Dad, they said on the radio
the National Guard might come.

I am too one of the big boys!

[Edmond reading]
And without a reason to crow,

Chanticleer left the farm.

Then came the rain...

Mom, here!

How is she, Frank?

Start the truck!
She'll be okay!

Dorie, hurry!

I know the answer.
We need Chanticleer!

Mom!

Boys, the levee's breaking!

Chanticleer!

Chanticleer!

[Patou]
Edmond had the right idea

to call for Chanticleer,

but he never could have guessed
who was going to answer...

Chanticleer?

No...

It's not Chanticleer.

Who are you?

You put your finger
in the Duke's face.

Remember?

These are expensive,
little brat!

But that is not why
the Duke is going to eat you.

Eat me?

Oh, dear, now I've gone
and spoiled the surprise.

I'm always doing that.

But, you see,
we creatures of the night

have worked very hard

to make absolutely sure

that that bird does not return.

And you...

You, with no regard
for the feelings of others,

have the nerve

to call him back here by name!

And besides,

I positively loathe
rock 'n' roll!

[laughs boisterously]

You're not gonna eat me!

[Patou]
And that's when the Duke
hit the ceiling!

If Edmond wanted
to bring Chanticleer back

to raise the sun,

the Duke was going to have
something to say about it.

Kittens are more digestible.

Young Edmond was about to have
the most amazing adventure

he'd ever dreamed of.

[laughs]

[The Duke laughing]

Ah...

Mom! Dad!

Wake me up!

This is where I come in!

Ow!

Yi-yi-yi-yi-yi!

You'll pay for this, Patou!

This does not concern you.

It does if it's
about Chanti!

The light! Owls hate the light!

[screams]

Whew!

Hey, boy.

We were this close!

Oh, that flashlight biz was
quick thinking on your part!

What's your name,
little fella?

Edmond.

Is he gone?

Yeah, he's gone,
but he'll be back.

And he won't be alone,
the coward.

I would have whopped him
if I'd of had my shoes tied!

But you know something?

Tying shoes is harder
than dry dog food.

What you wearing shoes for?

Bunions!

I got a load of bunions.

And them shoes
help my feet.

Here, let me show you
how to tie them.

Oh, jeepers!

I'm all furry!

Well, kittens are furry.

But, but I'm a little boy!

[meows]

Did that come out of me?

Oh! I'm... I'm a cat!

He turned me into a cat!
Help me!

Do something!
I can't be a cat!

I'm a boy!

Patou, what will I do?

Alright, steady, boy,
keep your pants on.

[gasps]

Yuck! What am I doing?
I'm licking myself!

[Peepers] Patou!

I'm in here!

According to my calculations,

this can't possibly
be the city.

Let's see,
36 by 7 southeast...

Thirty-six by 77...

Or is it 37 by 6?

[gasps]

[chuckles]

It's okay, Peepers!

It's Edmond,
he's a nice kid.

I'm a boy!

And I almost
ate a mouse!

I must be crazy!

You bet your
sweet whiskers!

Wow!

[Stuey]
There's no city around here.

Oh, sadness!

Hey, aren't you going to
tie my shoes?

I can't!

I can't help anybody!
I'm too little!

I'm a scrawny fur-ball runt!

Mom and Dad
won't even recognize me!

Mom! Dad!

Help!

[thunder crashes]

Oh, Chanticleer.

If he doesn't
come back and crow,

the sun won't ever shine again,

and the rain
will keep coming down,

and the water will
get higher and higher,

until we all drown.

Wowee wow wow wow!

Are we close?
Are we near the city?

Us magpies are just
made for the city!

Come on, already!
Hurry it up, Peepers!

We're not looking
for the city!

We're looking
for Chanticleer.

Well, he's in the city,
isn't he?

Then he is in the city!

Girls, they think
they know everything!

Why don't you run home,
be a mousewife? Make cheese?

[lisps] Snipes, you think
you're so superior!

"Thuperior!"
Nithe lithp!

My lisp isolates
and elevates me

and makes me
a rare specimen.

[Snipes and Peepers argue]

Pipe down, you two!

The story's true!

You all laughed at him,
and he went away!

You're right, son.
We done wrong!

And that's why we're searching
for the city.

We got to find Chanti
and apologize.

So he'll forgive us.

Come home
and raise the sun!

Well, I know where the city is.

I've been there
lots of times as a boy.

A boy?

Before that big owl
turned me into a cat!

Owl? Owl?

Edmond, would you take us
to the city?

I can't.

Look at me,
I'm a cat.

No, a little kitty.

What can I do?

I can do lots of things,

and I'm a lot smaller
than you.

And furthermore,

I could forgive you
for being a cat

if you would take us
to the city.

Of course,
if you're a fraidy-cat--

I'm not afraid!

Or a scaredy-cat.

Me, scared?

Lay off the boy!

Hey, guys! Guys!

Okay, okay!
I'm not afraid of anything!

I'll take you to the city
to find Chanticleer!

And bring him home,

and save Dad and Mom
and the farm!

[all] Hurray!

Hope you can swim, guys.

[Edmond] Oh, no!

[coughing]

Ahhh!

We don't have to swim!

We'll go by boat!

Oh, this is serious!

Peepers, you'll need this
if those owls return!

Owls? Owls? Owls?

I'm sticking with you!

-Well, fellas, this is it!
-[gulps]

[Snipes]
The city! The lights!

The chicks! The food!

Goodbye!
Good luck with the owls!

Owls?

[Patou] Yep, owls.

While Edmond set our course
for the city

in the U.S.S. Toybox,

the Duke and his owls
were back in their lair

storing up some
powerful nasty weather...

[organ music plays]

So he turns on the Duke.

And with what,
do you suppose,

he turns on the Duke?

[all] What, master?

A flashlight!

Uncle Dukey! Uncle Dukey!

Ahhh!

I wish you wouldn't do that.

Hunch, I told you
never to call me that.

Yes, sir! Uh, no, sir!

Guess what I just saw!

Patou the dog floating in
a toybox down the river!

And he has this cute
little white kitty with him.

Ahhh!

Uh-huh.

My little pygmy nephew...

Come to uncle.

[chuckles]

Argh!

[Patou]
Meanwhile, bound for the city,

Edmond steered us

through the perils
of the flooded river.

[Edmond]
Starboard ho!

[Snipes]
Starboard who? Left or right?

Uh-oh.

Why, I've never
been so... Wow!

The city!

Wow!

[Peepers]
It's so beautiful!

[Patou]
Now all we've got to do

is find Chanticleer.

And that's going
to be like

hunting for a needle
in a haystack!

[yawns]

Ow!

Oh, no.

Uncle Dukey! Uncle Dukey!

Annihilation! [chuckles]

How did you do it?

Adequately.

Wha... What's that
supposed to mean?

Well, Uncle, we sucked 'em
into an adequate pipe!

A what?

That's what it said,
"Danger! Adequate pipe!"

[laughs]

Dear Hunch...

Come to Uncle.

Uh...

You imbecile!

That's not an "adequate" pipe.

It's an aqueduct pipe!

It leads straight
into the city!

The Duke gives you
one last chance, Hunch!

Them or you!

Get to the city!

Not the city, sir!

Oh, no! It's too bright!
I'll go blind!

Oh, say it isn't so.

[Edmond reading]

He's not in here!

Let's go!

[Patou]
You ever get that feeling

when you're
looking for something

that it's right
under your sniffer?

I know it seems crazy,

but it was almost
like we could hear his voice

calling to us.

You know, like he was just
waiting for us

to come and ask him back.

But we looked everywhere,
and we talked with everyone.

But nobody had heard
of Chanticleer, nobody.

Funny thing was,

he was right under our
very nose the whole time.

Or, should I say,
we were under his.

out there screaming your name,

and you're lonely?

I love this guy.

Yeah, but back
on the farm...

Hey, you told me yourself

what they did
to you on the farm.

They don't love you.

Murray, give us a roll.

See that?

Hello, Goldie?

How'd you like

Meanwhile, back on the farm...

[all whimpering]

Oh, she's fading fast!

How many more batteries we got?

Just these two.

What is this?

[chuckles]

Some kind of joke, huh?

[The Duke]
Well, I don't think it's funny.

They want to
bring Chanticleer

back to the farm.

You don't want that.
He makes you lots of money.

I don't want that.
He makes me miserable.

[Pinky] Right, boss.

What should I do about it?

Your chicken thinks

they don't want him
on the farm.

Well, that's good.

All you have to do

is make sure
he keeps thinking that.

It's not good that
the kitty and his friends

should talk to your chicken.

Must you bother me
whilst I dine?

Snipes, sign this.

Oh, heavens! Where have you
been all my life?

Lasagna

Snipes,
just sign it!

Yeah?

Excuse me, sir.

Would you please see
that The King gets this?

Yes, it's very important.

Oh, and waiter?
We asked for a light cola.

This stuff weighs a ton!

Mmm...

Give me the boss.

It's sounds bad, Pinky.

It's only a little bad,
not a big bad.

Look, he's lonely,
he needs a friend.

And that bad little kitty
wants to steal him away.

You don't want that,
do you?

Well, you can take

the rooster out of
the country,

but you can't take the country
out of the rooster.

Old Chanticleer
had found himself a city perch

sort of tailored to remind him
of the farm he'd left behind.

Trouble was,
with Goldie on the scene,

he wasn't feeling so lonesome
for us anymore.

Which was exactly
the way Pinky wanted it,

because that was
exactly the way

the Grand Duke wanted it.

There was just one problem
with their plan, of course,

Goldie was only supposed
to pretend to fall in love

with Chanticleer.

But she was
falling in love for real.

And that can really change
a pheasant.

I think we've lost him.

What do you mean?
He's right there!

No, no, no,
he ain't.

He's 1,000 miles away.

Huh?

Oh! Isn't it romantic?

When roosters
fall in love,

they lose all reason.

Enough mush.
Let's go eat!

Eat? How can you
think of food

at a time like this?

Lasagna!

Chanticleer!

Chanticleer!

Ah, Goldie.

When I left the farm,

I had such a big hole
in my heart,

you could have put
a John Deere tractor
through there.

Oh, you poor thing!

My heart is so full

I could just explode
like a bloated lamb.

Oh, King!

-You say the nicest things!

King, may I talk to you?

Oh, honey,

You're gonna
do just fine.

-Yeah, but--
-No buts about it, honey.

King, I've done
something awful!

Patou! Snipes! Peepers!

Goldie, where'd
you get this?

From you,
that night we first met.

They were here?

Yes, they're still here.

Well, why didn't you tell me?

Because she wasn't
supposed to!

Goldie,
I'm disappointed in you.

I said to entertain him,

not educate him.

Entertain me?

What's this all about?

Calm down, kid,
your friends are just fine.

No, they're not, King.
He's got 'em tied up in--

Shut up!

-What?
-[whimpers]

Where are they?

What have you
done with 'em!

Don't hurt him, boys.
He's got a movie to make.

I ain't making
nothing with you!

Oh, but King,

I got a lot of money
tied up in this picture!

I don't want
to lose my money,

and you don't want
to lose your friends.

That's blackmail!

That's showbiz!

you're home.

Huh?

[Chanticleer]
Ooh, feels like I've been hit

with by an 800-pound mule.

-What's happened?
-There's no time
to explain.

Chanticleer,
you got to crow,

and you got
to crow now!

The owls could
be here any second!

Who are you?

He's a friend.
Now please, crow!

Oh. I can't.

I don't know
if I ever did.

Of course you did!

Chanti, we were wrong.

It's your job
to bring up the sun.

It hasn't shined
since you left.

But look.

Cock-a-doo...

Ooh...

Uh-oh!

Oh, guys,
it's no use.

All I do now
is sing the blues.

Chanti! Crow!

Shut up, you!

Come on, you guys!

Show him we believe!

to be quiet!

[Patou] Well, our journey
had finally come to an end.

Old Chanticleer
was back to stay,

the sun was up,

the rain had stopped,

and the owls
were gone for good.

Everything seemed to be
turning out just fine.

Except for one thing...

Edmond.

We just didn't know
how to help him.

He was a little boy!

Oh, he was
a handsome little boy.

Edmond...

-Mmm-hmm.

Edmond...

Edmond, get back
into bed.

Wow!

Okay, take a look.

Look, Mom,
Chanticleer raised the sun!

Hi, Edmond!
How ya doing, son?

[Edmond]
Fine! But what happened
to Chanti and the g*ng?

Mom, where are they?

Edmond, Chanticleer
is just a storybook.

Those characters
are only make-believe!

Now, come on,
let's get back into bed.

No, mom! No, they're not!
I saw them!

I bet they're wondering
what happened to me.

I want to
tell them I'm okay.

-I'm sure they know.
-You think so?

Mmm-hmm.

They'll be just fine.

[Patou]
Edmond's mom was right,
of course,

but she didn't know why.

She also never knew just what
stopped the rain that night.

But that just
goes to show you,

with a little help
from your friends,

you can do just
about anything.

Welcome home, Chanticleer.

Thanks for
bringing back the sun.
