Marmaduke (Live Action)

[Olivia Bauer]

If Garfield and it's sequel sucked more than Pauly Shore's acting school and humiliated "The King of Comedy" Bill Murray, what makes you think a movie about a comic with 0 plot and jokes children don't get is a good concept. Who I ask you would even consider watching this?

While we're at it let's try making a live action Family Circus.

The movie will bring in an automatic 30 million based on the name and the history. Its a kid movie... another 15 million. Sold on DVD by xmas... 20 million...

If the movie is good it should make 3 to 5 times more...

Weren't we already tortured enough with cutesy "big, dumb, but loveable dog" movies?

Examples:
Beethoven, Turner And Hooch, K-9, etc.

Beethoven (1992)
Turner & Hooch (1989)
K-9 (1989)

wow, those movies are 20+ years old (ok Beethoven is 18 years currently)...

Those films were good!

I agree with Circus. But then I also liked the CGI Garfield films too...nowhere near as much as those older films though.

If the world is lucky, it will destroy the career of Owen Wilson. He makes me physically ill.

[Mr. DS]

I don't think I've ever read the comic and laughed...not even once.  So I guess I'll skip out on this one.

[Joe the Destroyer]

What next?  A Mother Goose and Grimm live action movie?

The most baffling thing to me is that Marmaduke talks.  Never did like the comic much, but Marmaduke talking renders the comics entire concept meaningless.

Could you pass the good medication so I can think that the movies were good?

Want to be tanked too?

OH! Don't forget "Because of Win-Dixie"...

Or whatever It's called.

Actually wasn't "Marley & Me" about a stupid dog? (That also has the 'dog killing' cliche)

Also, what was "My Dog Skip" about?

Finally, the most silly and over-rated dog film of all time: "Airbud"

While we're at it let's try making a live action Family Circus.

But only if a dotted line follows the characters wherever they go.
