A Bit More From UNDERDOG!!

Hmmmm by Gorrister	Dec 18th, 2006 06:37:03 PM
I take it this will be a 'talking animals' type story? Like "Cats and Dogs"?
Needs pants by Nodwick	Dec 18th, 2006 06:38:09 PM
I mean, if he's going to stand upright, the dog needs some trou.
Have they explained why... by Lenny Nero	Dec 18th, 2006 06:42:17 PM
...in the earlier story, the dog in the poster and the dog in the pic (and the pics here) seemed to be a different kind of dog?
Well, it's either pants... by Massawyrm 1	Dec 18th, 2006 06:42:51 PM
or an epic battle against his arch enemy, SuperScooper! Underdog, battling unjust leash and scoopin' laws everywhere!
ooooh... by Massawyrm 1	Dec 18th, 2006 06:43:22 PM
Gorrila Grond has pants! Underdog wants pants too!

Sweet Polly Purebread is in peril! by Uncapie	Dec 18th, 2006 06:56:22 PM
The gang from "Mutts" is about to pull a train on her. "Oh, where, oh where is my Underdog? Oh, where, oh, where can he be?"

A piece of shit is a piece of shit is a piece of shit. Kimble hath spakethen.
Are they prepping 'Superchicken' yet? by Det. John Kimble	Dec 18th, 2006 07:13:00 PM
Oh and get Hong Kong Phooey to do a cameo. For reals.

"I'm going to sexually molest you, Underdog!"
what's the budget on this thing? by Leafy McPlantsalot	Dec 18th, 2006 07:21:06 PM
someone please tell me it's not more than 30 million. I know it's not my money but come on, how many starving kids could have been saved with one less shit movie... I blame you hollywood. I blame you.
still looks like crap by Bloo	Dec 18th, 2006 07:30:08 PM
looks like crap crap crap crap crap...I get no sense of "Underdog" from it, the fun, the lightness, the childhood love of Underdog, I see marketing crap 101
I hope this isn't another live action Scooby Doo by veritasses	Dec 18th, 2006 07:45:02 PM
disaster.... So far, it looks awful. And RIP Joe Barbera.

were there humans by Novaman5000	Dec 18th, 2006 07:45:28 PM
in the original underdog cartoon? I don't remember them... this shouldn't have humans, either.
Novaman by Bloo	Dec 18th, 2006 08:09:07 PM
had humans who interacted with Underdog and Polly Purebred, etc
Yeah, there were humans. by CatVutt	Dec 18th, 2006 08:12:36 PM
Simon Barsinister and Cad were both human villains. Riff Raff waas not. I went back and watched them a couple years ago. They're really not very good at all. Whereas the Bullwinkle 'toons hold up as witty and absurd as ever, Underdog is often just rather dull.
I guess I missed the whole Underdog thing by jrbarker	Dec 18th, 2006 08:15:40 PM
Must be before my time. I really don't know anything about him.
Why is it that as crappy as the movie looks... by Lighthouse	Dec 18th, 2006 08:16:21 PM
these pictures still look better than anything I saw in Superman Returns.
I hear the FBI is running an online sting of these pics by Doctor_Sin	Dec 18th, 2006 08:27:46 PM
They're treating viewing Underdog pics the same as viewing kiddy porn...if not worse. I suggest all AICN TBers not view these images. You could find yourselves tossing salad in lockdown.
Robot Chicken by LaDracul	Dec 18th, 2006 08:50:42 PM
I just hope they do a scene like in the "Robot Chicken" episode where all the humans watching Underdog are amazed he can talk. Funniest thing ever. :) However, the movie sounds a little like "Cats and Dogs" and "Good Boy"...
Ya know by Ralije	Dec 18th, 2006 09:02:41 PM
I love dogs. I just watched Jurassic Bark. If this movie is even slightly maudlin I know I'll be there. It'll probably suck, though. But nothing makes me happier than being around a dog so I'm hoping for the best.
I wounder what underdog lady would say. by Stimpson J Cat	Dec 18th, 2006 09:29:37 PM
From the Howard Stern show say?

One can only hope for such an incredible occurance.
Ah Geez do we really need this movie. by streakerfreak1983	Dec 18th, 2006 10:36:16 PM
This will go right up there with the greats, like Garfield the movie.
This movie is geared to kids and only kids will want .. by streakerfreak1983	Dec 18th, 2006 10:37:49 PM
to see it and they have no freakin clue who or what underdog was.

2nd pic looks like Hosehead from STRANGE BREW by LaudnerGomez	Dec 18th, 2006 11:23:42 PM
There's nothing good that can come from a live-action Underdog film.
MORE PHOTOS! Yet still smells like ass... by Mace Tofu	Dec 18th, 2006 11:30:32 PM
which could be a good thing if your a dog. The Fan Base for this cartoon are in their late 40's so I can see why the filmmakers just blew us off and did a really stupid kids movie that has NOTHING to do with Underdog and should be called SUPERPOOCH or something other than UNDERDOG. (Heard the news on the radio : ( RIP Joe Barbera , You lived a wonderful long life). Why can't we get THE MIGHTY HEROS movie? that would be funny for kids & adults.
If they wanted to make a superdog movie... by Nodwick	Dec 19th, 2006 12:35:29 AM
...that kids today would have a chance of understanding, they should have done a "Krypto" feature. However, that would have most likely stunk on toast as well. Just because CGI lets filmmakers do anything doesn't mean they should be allowed to do it...

UNDERDOG to do THUNDERBIRDS business at the Box Office by Mace Tofu	Dec 19th, 2006 02:08:33 AM
Even Charlotte's Web tanked last weekend. I just hope they don't fuck up the SPEED RACER movie but that looks like it's on the right track after all these years....Yeah I'm old.

...stop trying to cash in by adapting old cartoons that barely stand on their own!
Fucking movie sounds horrid, looks horrid, smells hor- by kinghenryVIII	Dec 19th, 2006 08:46:26 AM
rid, is going to suck and bastardize yet another fun memory from the past. Yes, it will appeal to kiddies and maybe some nostalgic mommies and daddies in their mid to upper 30's but bottom line, it will leave only a shit taste in your mouth after veiwing, and will end up making you question your memories of youth, wondering if the cartoon - though appealing back then - was actually, really, any good. In the end, it will be just another fond memory sodomized by the powers that be who enjoy cashing in on the past and green lighting every fucking movie "remake" that comes down the pipe. But if they play the origonal Underdog song .... "OOOO Wa-OOO Wa-OOO Wa-OOO ...." I'm buying the sound track and will be there openning fucking night humming along.
HOLY CRAP THAT LOOKS TERRIBLE!!!!!!!! by hatespeech	Dec 19th, 2006 09:33:49 AM
Injustice prevails! Damn you Hollywood, DAMN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A Mighty Mouse Movie? by jazzbox2	Dec 19th, 2006 10:46:21 AM
Be careful what you wish for...they'll probably use a live mouse.

Damn! I can smell this one through the monitor by Damitol	Dec 19th, 2006 11:31:25 AM
I fully understand this is meant to be watched and "enjoyed" by kids who have never heard of Underdog before, but still... Sadly - I fear I'll be giving this turd a few bucks since my 7-year old loves dogs and superheros, but they better have him say "Not bird nor plane or even frog - It's just little old me > Underdog", or there WILL be Hell to pay. I will give them props for the tag line however.
I think this film needs a MASSIVE budget! by Johnno	Dec 19th, 2006 11:34:39 AM
They need to film Underdog taking on his archnemesis the Overdog in an epic fight exactly like Neo versus Agent Smith in the Matrix Revolutions! Anything less is underwhelmingdog...
Great by Davis of Texas	Dec 19th, 2006 02:35:47 PM
so they anthropomorphise penguins, and dogopomorphise already-anthropomorphic cartoon dogs (see also, Odie). Also, Austin's own Butthole Surfers did an awesome cover of the Underdog theme.
Perhaps I will have to take back an old prediction by INWOsuxRED	Dec 19th, 2006 11:57:40 PM
I have often said it would be impossible to make a good live-action Underdog movie. I still think that is likely the case, but I am much more excited seeing this actual dog than that scooby-do cgi blobby thingy. Wasn't Underdog's ememy OverCAT, or am I just remembering wrong?
you guys are funny by omarthesnake	Dec 20th, 2006 06:50:08 PM
Underdog was, at its best, a passable way to waste a half hour for an eight year old. the movie will be the same way. and so what if the kids don't know who underdog is? it's a flying cute doggie. It's like Superman without the creepy stalker "I'm always watching you, Lois" angle. odds are the kiddys'll enjoy it just fine, and they'll give it a fivefold better box office than it would have had if it had been a faithful attempt to recreate the classic franchise purely for the benefit of loyal classic Underdog loyalist snob geek nerds, who will bitch about this in the talkback but wouldn't have gone to see if anyhow so what does their opinion matter?
I paid to see MAC & ME so how dare you say we are talk by Mace Tofu	Dec 21st, 2006 03:23:25 AM
OMAR and would not be dumb enough to see UNDERDOG ... on the other hand I have not seen ROCKY & BULLWINKLE or the DUDLEY DO RIGHT movie yet...
You know what? by Kal El Vis	Dec 22nd, 2006 11:23:26 AM
As crappy as this looks, I'm betting that dog can kick the crap out of, then piss all over, Singerman. As said urine is flowing all over his rubber swimsuit, Singerman can again squeal like a bitch: "I'm still Superman".
What a turkey by rmg	May 7th, 2007 12:09:27 AM
You would think after the tragedy that was ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE these so called film-makers would catch on! Don't screw around with a pop icon! I actually called SPYGLASS and said to the person whom answered that the film looked like a dud and her response was "wait to you see it, it is hysterical" I replied "Underdog is not supposed to be hysterical but heroic!" I have know artist Joe Harris the creator of Underdog he had his fellow creators whom made the show happen should have been involved as they all know the character!
