Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe animators went to an owl sanctuary to learn how to properly depict owls in flight and the ruffling of their feathers, as well as owl behavior and their dietary needs.
- GoofsSeveral of the owl species featured in the film are not found in Australia, where it is set. This is because the original books were set in North America.
- Quotes
Soren: Why didn't you tell me?
Ezylryb: What difference does it make what I call myself?
Soren: Because Lyze of Kiel was my hero.
Ezylryb: Yes, well, fancy it must be hard meeting your hero and seeing that he's real, not a myth.
Soren: You're just, you're just not...
Ezylryb: What did you expect? Some Tyto Alba with gleaming armour and battle claws, the moon rising behind him?
Soren: Uh...
Ezylryb: Well, this is what it looks like when you've actually fought in battle. It's not glorious, it's not beautiful, it's not even heroic. It's merely doing what's right, and doing it again and again, even if someday you look like this.
- Crazy creditsAt the very start of the film Soren's father, Noctus, is shown flying through the sky at sunrise passing through the Warner Brothers and Village Roadshow logos, before diving under the film's title.
- Alternate versionsAlso released in a 3D version.
If you young children are easy impressive, you might not like them asking you "but why is the pretty bird doing those bad things?" and stuff like that, just imagine an epic movie, you know: knights, kings, queens and battles, but for children and adults alike, it depends on how much your kids know about epic stories and the implications of war.
The visual designs are awesome and the music is beautiful, it is a great story.
