I saw this movie a while ago because it not only had birds as the main characters it had tropical birds (macaws, parrots, toucans).

My fav character is Eva the keel billed toucan. :DD

Blu has ALOT of similarities with Petrie and Jewel is similar to Cera.

I'll post more when I have more time.

I'm back to post more

I like Eva because she's a Toucan and Toucans are my favourite birds of all.

My fav scene is when Rafael tells Blu to tell Jewel 'You have beautiful eyes' and Blu says "I have beautiful eyes" :spit

Neither can I, but that's August 22 (maybe 26, I can't remember), 2011. I wanted to watch it in theatres, but I'm not 16 yet, so I couldn't have drove there, and my mom didn't want to take me. <_<

I saw it and love it.  This might be a movie I actually buy. It was that good.

Does the film have many scenes with the characters singing? Because I like the look of it from what I've seen in trailers, but that stuff makes me feel kind of uncomfortable for some reason.

There's some songs in it Bushwhacked, but it's not over the top, I'd say. It's still really good, and one of the best animated films of the year in my opinion. You should check it out all the same. :DD

Oh get over that feeling. It has like he said some songs. They didn't make me feel uncomfortable when I watched the movie.  Why would you feel uncomfortable listening to the songs BushWacked?

This was one of those movies that made me go eh the first time I watched it but, because of my niece and nephew who insist on watching it every day, I find myself liking the movie more and more. I like Will.I.Am's character  :lol: Funny bird he is.

I Liked how they got George Lopez to lend his voice for that movie.

I dunno why, but whenever I watch a film with singing I just feel... embarrased (the only exception is the Tim Burton version of Sweeney Todd). It's weird. But, since you guys think this film is good, I'll push through and watch it. Maybe I'll even like the songs  :D

You should definitely see Rio. The song "Real in Rio" is pretty good and the one that Nigel sings.

Just to let people know, a second Rio movie is apparently in production now and that 20th Century Fox is interested in turning Rio into a franchise. Just posting this link beacuse there's too many sources to post (this page has multiple sources for Rio 2). http://rio.wikia.com/wiki/Rio_2
