  • NC: Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so you don't have to. (chuckles) Stop me if this sounds totally ridiculous. A singing rooster dresses up like Elvis... (NC is stopped dead in his tracks, holding his hands up with a pained expression of sorts) NC: Well, if you can't even make it that far, then you're going to have a real hard time with Don Bluth's strangest of animated creations - and that's saying a lot - Rock-A-Doodle. [clips from the movie play as NC continues speaking] NC: (VO): It's strange, it's nonsensical...it's kind of like a bedtime story if read by Andy Warhol.
  • Okay, stay with us here. This is a very loose Adaptation Expansion of the tale of Chanticleer the rooster, who believed his crowing made the sun shine. It is also an equally loose adaptation of the play Chanticler by the French writer Edmond Rostand (also known for Cyrano De Bergerac), bearing little resemblance to it apart from some of the characters. Pretty straightforward as far as animated folktales go, right? Well, no. Because we didn't mention the Grand Duke, an evil wizard owl who hates the sun and wants it to rain forever. Or, speaking of, the flood that started once Chanticleer left.
  • Rock a Doodle is a 1991 animated film made by Don Bluth. Glen Campell as Chanticleer, the main protagonist. Christopher Plummer as The Grand Duke, the main antagonist. His evil plan was to stop Chanticleer from crowing so he can let the secondary antagonist, Pinky, make him sing for the rest of his life. John Pomeroy (Chanticleer) Lorna Cook (Edmond) (as Lorna Poneroy-Cook) Jean Morel (The Grand Duke and Owls) Linda Miller (Farm Animals) Jeffery James Varab (Pinky) (as Jeffery J. Varab) T.
