* Following the above, when the collective chickens [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone worry what consequences will come]] of revolting one of their oppressors, it's Ginger who steps forward and makes it clear: now that they know the pie machine is operational again, they're only option is to set their plane into motion and leave ''now''. Although they're initially hesitant to pull off such a do-or-die stunt, Ginger gives them the speech that lends them the courage to take the leap:

* The {{Indy Escape}} that finishes the pie machine sequence, complete with Ginger and Rocky using a loose wire to swing across a chasm of spinning, malfunctioning blades, all while the machine threatens to explode at any second.

* Rocky Rhodes spent most of the movie being a real thorn in Ginger's back, being rather unable to fulfill his promise of teaching the chickens how to fly. However, when the pie machine is completed, and Ginger is the one who is taken to test it out, [[LetsGetDangerous he doesn't even hesitate to go to her rescue]].
** When he and Ginger are stuck in loaves of dough ready to be flattened by a giant roller, he jumps to her, ''with the dough still stuck to his feet'', grabs her wing, and saves them both by grabbing a chain that pulls them both out. And immediately afterwards, Ginger saves him by calling out a circular cutter so they both manage to evade it.
** After being lifted into a pie dish and getting chopped vegetables dumped on them, Ginger and Rocky are in danger of getting shot with boiling hot gravy by a sprayer. Rocky manages to plug the sprayer with a carrot he twirls in his hands.
** Ginger managing to come to Rocky's rescue when he keeps tripping into the pies in the machine's oven. She uses a wrench to block the closing door and buy them both precious time.

** That Ginger and the chickens manage to so completely turn around their DarkestHour. For a moment it looked like even [[{{Determinator}} Ginger]] had finally given up. But when the chickens realise that this plan can and ''will'' work they throw themselves into building the crate with a determination that we've only ever seen Ginger display before. The whole montage could almost count as a LetsGetDangerous moment for them.

** This precedes the chickens putting it all together. What follows is an epic assembly of the plane, as their hard work (one day in the making, mind you) comes to fruition. There's something to be said for how the cherry on top is the plane "unfolding" its "wings" like a bird, quite a significant way of saying the chickens ''[[ExactWords will]]'' fly to their freedom as they previously planned.


* The next two are awesome on a meta level:
** While the movie failed to gain a Best Picture nomination, the amount of support it got convinced the Academy to introduce the Best Animated Feature category.
** SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Following their win with the ''WesternAnimation/{{Antz}}'' score, John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams made this score, possibly the best score to ever feature a ''kazoo''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUDCbOVmSdU Main Titles]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFR3Fmx2BP4 Building the Crate]] stand out.
* Also meta: the announcement after ''18 years'' that Aardman is working on a sequel.
