Out of all the animated movies I’ve seen over the years, there are very few that are as weird as Barnyard. In this review, I’ll be taking a look at Nickelodeon’s second attempt of making a computer animated franchise after Jimmy Neutron, made by one of the same people who brought you the Boy Genius, Steve Oedekerk. However, the result of the original party animals turned out to be the Cow Tools of animated movies where its existence is more fascinatingly strange than funny.

I grew up watching Barnyard A LOT as a kid. Even to this day, I still find a lot of enjoyment out of it. The comedy is weird and not up to people’s taste, but I still get laughs out of it. And I do agree that the characters and emotions are great, writing on them is very solid for a very goofy farm animals movie.

You definitely delivered on this review. There were moments I actually laughed and even though I was confused that Big E. Cheese wasn’t in the thumbnail, I’m glad you still have him acknowledgment at the start of the review. As for my thoughts on the film, I also saw this when it was in theaters and watched the series at places where there was cable TV whether it’d be at vacation resorts or my grandparents’ condo since my family didn’t have cable (mostly grew up with PBS Kids and Qubo R.I.P.) and even watched my older brothers playing the tie-in movie game, and having rewatched it last year on YouTube when it’s available as part of the Movies section, while it’s not great and the film’s priority is obviously being a comedy than being an animated film for everyone from critics to parents to enjoy like most of Pixar’s films, it’s still enjoyable if you want something funny to watch and turn your brain off to. It’s similar to Space Jam or the first Jurassic World film where you focus more on the experience than on the story themselves since those films’ stories are admittedly very weak. So if it were available to watch for free on YouTube again, I wouldn’t hesitate. As for the next Classic Review, I can only guess is Ne Zha 1?

About half a year ago, an animator who was employed at DNA Productions (the studio behind “Jimmy Neutron”) uploaded a compilation video onto YouTube, which consisted of behind the scenes footage filmed between 1999 and the September 11 attacks. At one point, you can visibly see a rendered shot from the “Barnyard” pitch reel.

I was expecting the opening clip to be the one where either the Sheep or Pig says to everyone, "Clear", but the Biggie Cheese comeback was truly unexpected. I did see this and the series a lot as a kid. And while they may not be my favourite things from Nickelodeon, I did have some fond memories with them. Anyway, Ne Zha is next. It might not be a truly great animated film like I was hoping for, but at least it'll be better than Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas and Planet 51. I can guarantee that.

I don’t have much connection when it comes to Barnyard. I remember seeing the movie on DVD about maybe twice or something and even saw few episodes of the TV series itself on Nickelodeon but other than that, I don’t have much connection as I was with Jimmy Neutron as a kid. After watching it again on YouTube for free on the movie section, I do think it a weird movie but not in a good way. I get where it memes comes from especially the Biggie Cheese scene singing Mr. Bombastic from Shaggy although I remember more with Mr. Beans Holiday of hearing that song first but I don’t think Barnyard movie is a good film. I do believe the tone is all over the place, the story feels shallow as I almost found no plot throughout despite the story about Otis becoming a man of taking care of the farm, writing was very weak, the animation looks mediocre on top of some weird character design on some of the animals and humans, leans too heavily to be over the top to act like a cartoon, humor feels hit or miss too, and characters were so so. My only positives with this is maybe the heart it has, some of the voice acting and some crazy moments that works okay at best. Other than that, knowing this was released in 2006 which I consider to be one of the weakest year for animation, I put this on the levels like Open Season, The Wild, Eveyone’s Hero and especially Doogal to be under the mediocre to bad films of 2006 and still a hot take, I don’t think Happy Feet is a very good either. It had its moments that stand out more, but not enough to overcome to be considered mid overall. As for Ne Zha, considering I have seen it already long before the sequel came out, I do have something to say with this film so I’ll definitely looking forward to talk about that next month.

I only ever remember watching this ONCE, which was in school as a fun lunchtime video. The ONLY THING I ever recalled from this movie were three lines from the "Boy-Tipping" scene ("That's called "BOY-TIPPING!", "I'll be good to the cows. I'll be good to the cows.", "Okay, no more Red Bull."). THAT'S IT! This movie was brought in by one of the louder hockey-players in our class (I live in Saskatchewan, Canada; iykyk) and it made EVERYONE but him and his buddies just frown and go, "HUH?". Three guesses as to what we thought of them afterwards

That’s called “Film Tipping”! HA HA HA!
