You gotta be ready to listen to your children, even if they have nothing to say.
~ Buck Cluck

Buck Cluck is one of the two deuteragonists (alongside Abby Mallard) in Walt Disney Animation Studios' 46th full-length feature film Chicken Little. He is the father of the titular protagonist, and Chloe Cluck's widowed husband.

He was voiced by the late Garry Marshall.

His Good Ranking[]

What Makes Him Admirable?[]

  • Despite being a neglectful father towards Chicken Little and usually doesn't respect his opinions, most of this is to make sure that the town doesn't look at them like if they were crazy, and he later on regrets these decisions and decides to become a much better parent towards him.
  • He congratulates his son on winning the baseball game and makes attempts to get closer to him.
  • After realizing that his son was right about the alien spaceship, he tries to get him into the car for them to evacuate the town.
  • He helps Chicken Little make a plan to return Kirby to his parents by getting to town hall and delivering him.
  • He fights off the aliens from getting to his son so that they deliver Kirby to his parents safely.
  • He calls out Melvin for neglecting his son like he has, and tells him to take better care of him.
  • He congratulates his son on saving the town on the alien invasion, and starts to become a better father towards him.

What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]

  • He is too incompetent of a parent as throughout the film he constantly neglected his own son, and acted like his opinions did not matter. While this was to make sure the town doesn't look at them as crazy people, this is still too corrupting for Near Pure Good.
    • He told his son to shut up when he thought that his son mistakes a hexagon from the spaceships saw for an acorn because the situation was too embarrassing, and mistook this as an exaggeration, which makes him partially responsible for the mock-film based on his son.
    • He tells his own son to keep his hopes low, and to make sure he's not ever seen.
    • He tells his son to not tell him anything before he could explain about his and Foxy's quarrel.
    • He doesn't do anything to support his son on the baseball game and even expected him to fail.
    • He refused to believe his son when he warned the town about the alien spaceship, which ended up lowering his self-esteem and traumatized him.
    • Even after he believed him, he was initially skeptical about listening to his son as well, showing that he's also a coward.
  • He made a tasteless joke about how rabbits' feet are supposed to be lucky, when one got trampled, though he apologized for this.
  • He made an argument with a woman when she said profanity words.

Trivia[]

  • He, alongside Runt of the Litter, are the two Chicken Little characters to be Inconsistently Admirable.
  • He is the only parent or father in a Disney Animated Classics Canon to be Inconsistently Admirable.
  • It is unknown if Buck knows Foxy Loxy and Goosey Loosey or if he is even aware of their true nature.
