Trivia
Director Carlos Saldanha, who lives in Rio, first came up with the concept in 1995. Originally, it was about a penguin washing up on the beach in the Brazilian city. When he learned about the production of Happy Feet (2006) and Surf's Up (2007), he changed his screenplay radically.

Goofs
Linda serves Blu a cup of hot chocolate at the beginning of the film. Chocolate is toxic to Macaws.

Quotes
Blu: [as they're walking in the jungle] Oh! Oh! What was that?
Jewel: A stick.
Blu: Ah! And that?
Jewel: It's just a rock.
Blu: Oh, right. Yeah.
[Blu stops and shudders as he feels something on his back]
Blu: Is that a spider on my back?
Jewel: Will you quit it? It's just a leaf! Turn around!
[Blu turns and we see a huge spider on his back]
Jewel: Oh, um...
[Jewel quickly hits the spider off of Blu's back]
Jewel: Leaf. Told ya.

Crazy credits
At the end of the credits, two blue feathers are formed by the abstract shapes.

Culture and Flight Film

This is an alright film for everyone to watch. The storyline had some weak points. The crew could have created the film better. The cast selection was great. They did a splendid job fully committing to their respective characters. Anne Hathaway does an excellent job in every role she plays. This film is full of colour and culture. This film reveals to viewers the strength and wisdom that culture can have. It shows spirit and tradition that viewers can learn and understand. Culture can be good for everyone. This film clearly reveals the limit of culture. This is a fine film for everyone to watch and probably enjoy.
