Short description
An island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds or almost entirely. In this paradise, Red, a bird with a temper problem, speedy Chuck, and the volatile Bomb have always been outsiders. But when the island is visited by mysterious green piggies, it’s up to these unlikely outcasts to figure out what the pigs are up to.
What's left behind the scenes
- A character named Terence does not utter a single word throughout the film. He only grunts, hums to himself, and sings arias from operas.
- The tickets for the pig concert on Bird Island read "Steve Aoki." This is a reference to DJ, composer, and music producer Steve Aoki.
- Unlike their prototypes in the game, the characters in the film have a kind of hands.
- Like the members of the comedy duo "Smosh," who gained notoriety on the internet, Toby Turner (actor, comedian, musician, vlogger) voiced one of the film's characters (Perry), but this character was cut from the theatrical release.
- At the time of its release, the film was the most expensive in the history of Finnish cinema. The previous record – $9.7 million – belonged to the action movie "Big Game" (Jalmari Helander, 2014).
- For the Spanish version, Red is dubbed by Santiago Segura, Chuck by José Mota, Matilda by Cristina Castaño, and Leonardo by director Álex de la Iglesia.
- At the beginning of the film, Red asks two birds how many stars out of three they would give to a holiday pie. Three stars is the maximum level a user can achieve in "Angry Birds" games.
- The license plate of the car stolen by Terence reads "Wild as a boar."
- During the opening credits, Red's state of mind and life troubles are described by the background composition "Paranoid" (1970) by the British rock group Black Sabbath. The chorus ("Can you help me occupy my mind?") is not used in the film. Red is actually seeking help from other birds.
- Since its release on December 11, 2009, the "Angry Birds" game by Finnish company Rovio has been downloaded over 3 billion times in all its versions and on all platforms.
- In one scene, during the destruction of Piggy City, Bomb says to Matilda: "Maid of honor!" Bomb was voiced by Danny McBride in the film ("bride" in English means "bride").
- In the game, the eagle flies in when the user throws a huge golden egg. In the film, he flies in when all the eggs are stolen. They are all connected to each other, so it looks like one big egg.
- The pigs have their own version of Daft Punk – the band Daft Pig can be seen at the controls at the disco on Bird Island.
- In the Dutch version of the film, Chuck is dubbed by Enzo Knol, the first vlogger in the Netherlands to reach one million subscribers on YouTube.
- Starting June 10, 2016, the film begins with the short film "Early Bird Gets the Worm." Previously, the film began with the Sony/Columbia Pictures logo, followed by the Rovio Animation logo, and then the film's prologue.
- While voicing Leonard, Bill Hader parodied the voice of his high school football coach.
- Stella, the Pink Bird, is the only one who doesn't use her special abilities when attacking Piggy Island.
