** Contrary to what fans who dislike the movie's character designs think, this isn't the first time that the Angry Birds and Bad Piggies have been depicted with limbs in official media, as other ''Angry Birds'' media have already done that, such as the ''Super Angry Birds'' comics, the ''Agri Birds'' [[AprilFoolsDay April Fools]] trailer, and we can't forget the obvious ''VideoGame/AngryBirdsTransformers''.

** Leonard's last name, Mudbeard, ''predates'' the movie by three years, as it was first mentioned in ''The World of Angry Birds Official Guide'' book, released in 2013, stating that he is father of King Pig Smooth Cheeks.

* CommonKnowledge: Many people assumes that Leonard is King Pig Smooth Cheeks' movie counterpart like everyone else in the film and that he got AdaptationNameChange. This is not the case. Yes, they are both kings, but not the same character. This became very noticiable once Leonard [[CanonImmigrant started appearing in games]] like ''VideoGame/AngryBirds2'', giving to understand that Leonard and Smooth Cheeks are completely different characters.

* BrokenBase:
** The typically limbless birds and pigs suddenly gaining arms and legs for the movie has Angry Birds fans and non-fans alike divided over whether or not the designs work or if the characters with arms/wings and legs was something [[UncannyValley man was not meant to see]].
** The fans in general are polarized by the teaser; one half is excited to see their favourite smartphone app game on the big screen, the other half is displeased by this destiny, though given [[VideoGameMoviesSuck the track record]], the latter group's fears aren't entirely unjustified.

* DesignatedHero: Red can [[ZigzaggedTrope zig-zag]] this trope. The first scene and the jury show him clearly mistreated and isolated from the others, providing also a sad background of him being bullied and having no parents. That said, he is shown acting like a complete JerkAss both around Matilda (who, unlike the judge, is ''not'' treating him unfairly) and the others, who are outcasts just like him, and defies every one of their attempts to befriend him (albeit in a polite manner). When the pigs come, he gets immediately antagonizing due to a wrong-doing. He ''is'' right about the fact that they destroyed his house (although unwillingly), and no one is offering to help repair it; however, he did something similar by destroying the puppet Chuck made (willingly), and he never offers to Chuck any help. Chuck even lampshades the analogy, and that goes over his head (though to be fair, Chuck does drop the whole thing with his puppet, and Red does apologize in a DeletedScene at the banquet). Than he spends a good chunk of the movie being antagonistic toward the pigs [[UnfortunateImplications due to this personal wrongdoing and pointing every single difference between them as ominous]]. After his meeting with Mighty Eagle, however, he steps into a decidely heroic role, becoming TheLeader for the birds as a whole, facing personally the pigs to retrieve the eggs and risking his life to recover the one egg that Mighty Eagle doesn't recover.

There's also the expression of "Pluck My Life" which is obviously a play on of "Fuck My Life." The film definitely earns it's PG-rating.
