Marmaduke trailer, you guys:
Child: Dad, what’s Marmaduke?
Dad: Well, Charlie, Marmaduke is a long-running single-panel comic strip in American newspapers.
Child: What’s a single-panel comic strip?
Dad: Well, I guess it’s like a graphic novel, but without any of the emotional complexity, depth of character, or plot.
Child: Oh. OK, I think I get it. And what’s a newspaper?
BA-DUMP-CHING! I know this movie is intended for children, and as such it barely even deserves discussion–talk about forget it, Jake, it’s children’s movie town–but children cannot possibly want this. “Hey kids, check out this movie based on a comic strip that started in 1954, featuring the voice of George Lopez! In 2D!” Kids are just like, “I’ll be over here on my iFax, filing for emancipation.”

I so love that you chose to just leave Molly Ringwald’s face as is. +1 !!!
I love the idea of Molly Ringwald sharing her teenage problems with a bunch of dogs, because, you know, life imitates art…
“California Love”?
I think Tupac rolled with a different group of dawgs…
Thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all week.
I agree with this! I sat here for like 5 minutes trying to come up with something to say other than “This makes me angry,” and I just couldn’t. I can’t.
We just put a doctor in every pot. YES, WE CAN
After the beep, leave your own version of a Marmaduke/Owen Wilson/suicide joke.
BEEP
um… hello? hmmm, I don’t know if this is the right number. Hello??? Well, this message isn’t for Owen. I’m calling to remind you to make sure not to miss your Fergie/dog joke appointment today. thanks and hope this is the right number.
what was that line about it being better to burn out than to end up doing the voice of a disobedient Great Dane in a movie based on a 60 year old comic strip that also features the vocal talent of Fergie and George Lopez?
I WAS wondering why he was on lockdown. Also, probably the least of this movies problems but that was one terrible CGI doggybounce at the end.
Yeah, that doggy dance was wack. I certainly did not feel like I got SERVED.
This is just SO terrible….I can’t even..
I mean…
Well, werttrew said it better…
we are talking about today’s children, not today’s 11 year olds. today’s 11 year olds are so cool they hate dane cook even though they don’t know who he is. but today’s seven year olds? i believe a dog who can speak gopher is enough for them.
The crack babies crack babies crack babies…
Good for Bill Macy. I’m sure his Marmaduke Boat House will go nicely with his Wild Hogs pool.
I can’t wait to see how he pays for his staggering therapy bills.
Now we know what happens when the Coen brothers stop returning your calls.
Looking forward to Vídeo Brinquedo’s Howard Huge, though.
It’s nice to see that Fergie didn’t need any makeup. It’s just her voice? Oh…

Somebody better tweet Demi Moore!
Now that I am a grown-up, it is very clear that what Benji needed was a surfboard and a line-dance number at the end. My 70′s childhood had no idea what it was missing.
“George Lopez Is Carlos…Mencia is George Lopez Is Carlos Mencia Is George….”
Don’t call it The OC… Marmaduke.
This may be “NO BIG DEAL” to you, Godsauce, but for those of us who grew up laughing at Marmaduke’s hilarious antics, our treasured childhood memories have been TOTALLY DESPOILED.
Oh, wait, no, I was thinking of Howard Huge. Yeah who gives a shit.
I didn’t watch the trailer. Does it use “Who Let the Dogs Out?”
No, it was something about clowns.
Sheesh. And now that Hollywood has found a new source of material they’re going to mine the bejeesus out of it like they did with graphic novels/60s TV shows/80s horror movies/etc.
Can’t WAIT til next Valentine’s Day when they release a Cathy movie starring Jessica Biel in a fucking fat suit!!!
I’m really looking forward to the live-action Peanuts starring Karl Pilkington as Charlie Brown. I would fandango my tickets so fast if that movie was made.

You know, dogs do have feelings too. And emotional complexity. And, and…
Nightmares.
woah
Marmaduke? NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I can’t wait til they have 4 Marmaduke sequels and run out of creative material. Then we finally get what we’ve been asking for…
Scooby Doo VS Marmaduke
Whoever Wins…We All Lose
Aw Lee Pace, you are better than this!
Then again, I guess Pushing Daisies being cancelled isn’t putting the food on the table..
exactly. i gave him a free pass on this one too…besides there are SO MANY BIG NAMES attached to this project that really, how could he say no?
He needs to put pie in his family.
I was all like, “wait, no doggie-dance party? What sort of mindless, soul-rotting Hollywood rehash based off a horribly unfunny single-paneled comic strip is this?” But I just wasn’t being patient enough, I see.
I think a simple WOOF will suffice.
Wow! Fergie a lot better than usual in this mov– Wait. She’s voicing a dog? I thought that was her.
William H. Macy, what the hell is your problem? First Wild Hogs, now this. Get it together.
“You want the world’s first three story pool house, you do what needs to be done.” – W. H. Macy
They forgot to use the Beach Boys’ “California Girls”. Also, was this the Marmaduke trailer or the Marmaduke movie? Either way, it was Unbearably long.
This trailer is living proof that there are things less funny than the actual marmaduke cartoon strip
What’s next, a movie about Family Circus?
please no.
I’m really hoping they slip in a few of the more classic “Dog-gone Funny” submissions as minor plot points for the superfans.
You guys are insensitive to dog angst and dog problems. My dog is sitting on the window sill. There’s nothing but rage behind those eyes. “I hate William H. Macy. I wish I knew Judy Greer.” Oh dog problems.
I think it’s in every Mexican-American actor’s contract that his characters must always be named “Carlos” or “Jose,” EVEN IF IT’S A CAT.
This trailer is the equivalent of The Machine from the Princess Bride. Every time you watch it, it takes a year of your life.
I can’t even make a good joke… the horribleness of this trailer has taken all of the fight out of me.
But didn’t Owen Wilson just provide voiceover work for Fantastic Mr. Fox? I don’t see how this is different.
“And Fergie!”
Oh okay. NOW I do.
