History WMG / RockADoodle

* The way I always justified the Sun not rising is because it was mad at the farm animals for taunting and teasing Chanticleer to the point where he left and it decided to punish them by refusing to come out and taking a long nap until Chant came back and hearing his crowing would alert the sun that he was back and that the farm animals had apologized to him. Hey it's the only reason I can think of why it would come up and then set again and not rise again, I mean I guess when it rose without the crowing it saw the taunting and teasing and decided to punish the animals like that.

[[WMG: The Duke is actually an EldritchAbomination]]

[[WMG: The Grand Duke is [[Franchise/HarryPotter Voldemort's]] owl.]]

[[WMG: The reason the sun didn't rise...]]

[[WMG: The Grand Duke made the movie non-sensical and a flop.]]

[[WMG: The movie wasn't a dream...]]

[[WMG: There may be a reason why his mom didn't believe Edmund]]

[[WMG: Don Bluth casted Toby Scott Ganger in the lead because he reminded him of Judith Barsi]]
* He was a child actor with a cloyingly cute speech impediment]], and Bluth wanted him to carry on her legacy by playing the RidiculouslyCuteCritter in his first movie after her death.

[[WMG: It really ''is'' a good movie ...]]
It's just so ahead of its time that most people won't appreciate it until 20+ years from now.
* Nice try, troper, but it's been over twenty years since it was released. Unless you meant good in a SoBadItsGood kind of way, then no, it's still mostly considered to be just okay at best.
** Where did that WMG say anything about twenty years since its release? They clearly meant twenty years from now, like they said. Once the movie is forty years old, people will begin to appreciate it.
*** So far so good, the movie's cult following keeps getting bigger.

* He was a child actor with a [[TastesLikeDiabetes cloyingly cute speech impediment]], and Bluth wanted him to carry on her legacy by playing the RidiculouslyCuteCritter in his first movie after her death.

* There's a [[https://www.amazon.com/Cock-Doodle-Dudley-Bill-Peet/dp/0395657458 children's book]] with a story which this Troper always applied to this movie. The sun doesn't actually NEED a rooster crowing to rise; it just likes that roosters do that. So just like in the book, when Chanticleer stopped crowing altogether, the sun's feelings were hurt, and it decided not to rise out of spite. When Chanticleer crowed again, the sun forgave him and rose.

* Chanticleer's crowing was the sun's alarm clock. Once, the sun woke up early, and decided to go back to sleep. She kept sleeping, until the [[PowerOfRock]] woke her up.

The rest of the movie is the bizarre afterlife he created for himself.
* That, or it's [[AdventuresInComaland what goes through his comatose brain as he's laying on the floor dying]], having suffered severe head trauma. When the credits roll, he's finally dead, explaining the outlandish and nonsensical ending that cuts off abruptly.

* [[TheNostalgiaCritic God got bored and wanted to fuck around with the rooster, so He played yo-yo with the sun.]]

[[WMG:Edmond died when the tree crashed into his room.]]

* He was a child actor with a [[TastesLikeDiabetes cloyingly cute speech impediment]], and Bluth wanted him to carry on her legacy by playing the AnnoyinglyCuteCritter in his first movie after her death.
