I came across the trailer for this the other week on the apple trailers site. I was mainly like "wtf?" Very, very random.
This looks like another rubbish disney real dog film like The Shaggy Dog ! :roll:
I was half expecting Nicole Richie or Paris Hilton to be lined up to feature in the cast list howtodeal rattled off...
Very well another disney dog movie thats going to disinterest the fans! (Although I'm Still Quite Intreged by Underdog... But that could be because I like my Super Hero Movies and its the closest release to Krypto that any studios are going to release without DC's backing)

I liked The Shaggy Dog... It has a story, some good acting Tim Allen was as per usual his Disney Best... But then it was never anything like Beethoven!
I don't know that there was a discussion about this film, but...

And believe it ot not, Hispanic groups are trying to boycot this film.
Why are the asking for a boycott?
According to the Wikipedia article, these two words were mentioned: Ethnic Sterotypes.
Politcal Correctness gone mad again I fear....

It seems like a 'sense of humour' is fast becoming a thing of the past.......and the ability to laugh at one's self is following closely behind :roll:

Oo things like this are just getting completely out of control!
I agree with you Epcot_Boy.
People should learn to be able to laugh at themselves, not everything is so serious, not everything is meant to offend!
I don't really understand people can be offended by every little thing. :(
Whether it is to do with Ethnic differences or Religious ones.
And I know somethings can be quite offensive, but clearly not all things are meant in an offensive way.
I mean I don't think people should be discriminated abusivly for being different but the world is losing its sense of humour.
I laugh at myself all the time, to be honest I think if I didn't I'd be so grumpy. It's fun to laugh at yourself everynow and again :lol:
Another case of the Politically Correct Police going amock for nothing whatsoever...

Everybody needs to come and live Ireland for a while. As far as having the ability to laugh at one's self, we must be world champions. I read once that the majority of jokes about Irish sterotypes were created by Irish people. Because 1: We understand they're not personal, and 2: It's funny.
As for the film, I'd boycott it, but that's because it looks stupid :?
i can't wait to see it :D
does anyone know the words to the theme tune? :wink:
i wanna embarrass my daughter by singing it in the cinema :P
and what exactly are people offended by? they're dogs. would they be happier if say the chihuahua had a french accent?
