Why was this movie needed?
 
The good:
 
It's not as bad as it could have been: As bad as this was, it wasn't the horror-show that I was expecting. I never once considered running into heavy traffic like I thought I would. Of course, I watched this after Sex And The City 2 and Fartbender looks, almost, good compared to that!
 
It wasn't the worst George Lopez movie from last year: Pretty much self-explanetary. At least this was up-front about being derivative, unlike Valentine's Day* and The Spy Next Door**.
 
The bad:
 
George Lopez: Lopez sucks as the family cat. He's very annoying, but he's not quite the worst hispanic comedian out there *cough* Carlos Mencia
 
Lee Pace: Pace plays Marmaduke owner, Adolf Hitler***. Pace is bland and annoying and seems unnecessary now that Marmaduke talks.
 
Why was Emma Stone in this?: How much money did they dump in front of her house? This came out between Zombieland and Easy A, so let's just call this a bump in the road.
 
The ugly:
 
Owen Wilson: Did Marmaduke really need a voice?
 
Fergie: Fergie needed to take time off from making ear-rapingly bad music, so she did something almost as torturous. She plays a bitch that Marmaduke wants to get with, but they both realize that Emma Stone's a better-fit. No arguments there!
 
The potential future if this was a hit: Imagine it: Family Circus: The Movie! Annoying children running with ghosts saying not me! Or Funky Winterbean: The Movie! Here's some potential dialogue: "I have cancer." "I have cancer cancer." "My nephew was found alive even though they reported him dead.**** Fortunately, this flopped, sparing us Mallard Fillmore: The Movie!
 
Well's that the show. Grade: D+
 
Next-up: Zoom!
 
*Rip-off of Love, Actually
**Rip-off of True Lies
***Seriously, the owner in the comic has a Hitler-mustache.
****To explain, there was a story where Funky's nephew Wally was found alive in Iraq, even though he was reported dead. This means that they didn't do a DNA test and that writer Tom Batiuk knows about as much about the military as Loose Change director Dylan Avery knows about telling the truth.

R.T. gave it 9%:Dull and unfunny,the film offers family filmgoers little more than another round of talking animals and scatological humor".

Roger Ebert gave it **/****:"The moment I saw MARMADUKE's big drooling lips moving, I knew I was in trouble".

Not really. In order for them to "cheat" us, they had to offer us something good and not deliver. In this case, they failed to deliever on both accounts.]]> Mon, 07 Jun 2010 11:33:36 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4316&PID=31811#31811 MARMADUKE : Doggie Discomfort Bagz, Anyone?!?!? http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4316&PID=31799#31799 Author: GTAHater767

The opening weekend pattern for this one suggested that the few folks who did see it -- Bless their pin-pointed little heads -- actually liked it. It's just that, as we suggested elsewhere on this Forum, there weren't enough of 'em to justify making this dog-eared, comic-strip-based movie in 2010. 

Here's a B.O. MoJo LINK to the Daily Grosses page for MARMADUKE, to check out how quickly it "went to the dogs," Box Office-wise...

In other words, this movie is NOT loyal to its source material at all! ]]> Sun, 06 Jun 2010 10:54:28 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4316&PID=31759#31759 MARMADUKE : Doggie Discomfort Bagz, Anyone?!?!? http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4316&PID=31756#31756 Author: dEd Grimley

If y'alls will remember, I was complaining about this movie long, long ago.
For those of you complaining about "Another talking dog movie", remember, if you would please, that this is a talking dog movie, based upon a comic strip that generally uses one frame, and the humor is that the dog is big and clumsy. This movie takes that same source material, and turns that silent, clumsy dog, and has him voiced by Owen Wilson, which would make me think that they want him to be somewhat smarmy, because otherwise, why go with Owen Wilson, and cap it off with a bunch of fart jokes. So this is indeed again, another example of Hollywood taking the name of something that already exists to bring in a pre-existing fan base, and deviating entirely from the source material. This is the lowest form of greedy, and one can only hope the movie makes less than a million dollars. Ever.]]> Sun, 06 Jun 2010 05:14:04 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4316&PID=31756#31756
