My daughter just called me t let me know a Marmaduke movie is coming out June 4. I am excited and hope they don't flop it making it more for adults than children, like they do some movies..Marmaduke, though he is a Great Dane, reminded us of our Dalmatian who did things like take over the whole bed...

Do you remember this comic strip? And is this a movie you may consider watching?

Hey carmel! I remember Marmaduke! What a big sloppy loving doggy!
I would definitely go see that movie, but I don't know anyone
who would see it with me!lol I would have to wait for the DVD
or see it by myself! I can't even think of a child I could
borrow to take them to see it with me!lol

Ah, Opal you won't need a child, though I do hope they keep it clean..I hate it when they take something you would think is for children and make adult humor with it..It makes me sick...feeling sick

So I will be reading reviews from this trusted site before taking my son..

One thing we need to keep in mind as "adults", and that is that we need to keep the inner child alive in us. All too often we forget to stop and enjoy the inner child and we turn into crabby bitter old people, like the neighbors that were so awful to me. (Speaking of them; Bill my boyfriend spotted the husband walking on the side of the road today on his way to to town and he hollered "HELLO" at the man. Needless to say it irked the man no end! Bill has a bit of the devil in him at times.rofldevil)

I watch cartoons each day, and don't feel embarrassed to admit it. I love the old cartoons like Scooby-Doo, The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Josie and the Pu$$y Cats and more. I tune into the Disney channel a bunch too. It keeps me from getting depressed and crabby. I also enjoy the newer cartoons like Phinas and Ferb, Kim Possible, The Emperors new school, and the old Mickey Mouse cartoons. I love a good laugh each day...and I don't have ANY children in the house.

Opal, if you were closer to me I would go with you in a heart beat. There is nothing like a good animated movie...Like Disney's release of "A Christmas Carol" last year. Bill and I laughed our way through the whole movie.

I agree with you Carmel, I don't watch just any program. There are so many cartoons that are actually camouflaged adult programs. If you aren't careful you can make a big mistake by taking your children to them or watching them on television.

Treat yourself to a day out and go to the movie, Opal. I bet you'll find other adults there without children.wink

I loved the Marmaduke comic strip. There were only a handful of comic I would read and marmaduke was definitely one of them. I would definitely want to see the movie and take my 4 year old granddaughter to see it. She loves dogs so I know she will love the movie too. When is it coming out do you know?


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

June 4 it is coming out..And the site I provided? Not only does it tell you about the movie, but you can see the trailer and play games..I don't know how hard the games are, but maybe your granddaughter would like to play them..:)

I do remember the comic strip, they also made a cartoon show out of it too. Every once in a while it shows up on cartoon network. (Nothing like showing my age! lol)

I am hoping to take Bill to the A-team movie. He loved the series and mentioned about seeing the movie when it came out, so I will move heaven and earth to get him there. Especially after he has been so great throughout the law suit. In fact he is loaning me the money to pay for the sewing machine in one payment rather than drag it out making payments. (Plus they want a LOT of financial information that I don't want to give to the couple who filed the law suit.)

There have been a lot of movies that I have wanted to see, but rather than spend the money for the theater I decided to wait and buy the DVD when it comes out. Now it seems like the movie barely is released an the DVD comes out.

My dogs don't take over the bed, it's the cats that take up the bed, especially since the bed is heated. I have to fight for my space and also to get up when I need to go to the bathroom. Now I know why they called them a water bed. If you can't get the cats out of the way in time....


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

They made a cartoon out of it? I didn't know that.. I am glad to see that Bill is helping you out in this situation..whether we go at the theater or wait until it comes out depends on our finances at the time. And you have cats in your water bed??? Don't you have problems with leaks??confused


myLot reputation of 99/100. Loverbear (2359)   ranked 1,870 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

The cats are usually very careful when they're on the bed. I need to get a new bladder for the bed as the one I have is 25 years old! I was putting it off because I thought they cost around a hundred dollars, but I found out that the new one will only cost $50! I plan to get it a week from Friday along with a new liner and a new cover.

Every once in a while Khuay gets really frisky and will attack the bolsters around the wood frame...but that's as far as it goes. I think that they realize that if they claw the bed they'll get wet. Besides, it's Murphy's favorite place to sleep. With her being the little old lady she is (16) I figure she has a right to enjoy a nice warm comfy place to sleep.


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

Aww, that is awesome that they understand the importance of not clawing the bed..:)


myLot reputation of 99/100. Loverbear (2359)   ranked 1,870 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

I think they have realized that if they claw the bed they will get wet. Either that or they figure that I will kill them if they claw the bed...I'm not too sure which. Ahh, actually I wouldn't kill them, I would yell at them A LOT though. I love all four of the furry fiendish idiots too much to kill them. wubrofl


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

rofl Yeah I know what you mean..My 2 furry puppies can make me feel like killing them, especially when they are excited, it's like any training they have been taught goes right out the window..But I love them and spoil them, my husband even says so...wublol

Hi Carm..The previews of this movie are adorable. I always loved Marmaduke and hope the movie is well done too. He is timeless so I think all kids will like it. The critics that rate the summer movies gave it two thumbs up so..How bad could it be anyway!! I won't pay to see it but wait with eager anticipation for it to come to DVD..
Sorry to hear about your pictures and hope you get it worked out..Have a great day J


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

I did get my pictures back and posted, so thanks, sulsisels..As for how bad can it be? I think it depends on who is giving it the thumbs up or down..There are movies I won't allow my son to watch because they too much adult humor in them that I don't think he needs to see...But I will consider when the site I use posts up a review and see what they say...Even if it has things I don't agree with, if I can use it to teach my son something, then we'll go or rent it, depending on if we have the money to see it..

Based on the previews, it looks like a cute and fun family flick. Will probably watch it when it comes out on DVD.


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

I hope we can see it at the theaters, but if not, then we will just wait..:)

I am familiar with the Marmaduke comic strip. I always thought it was really cute. I'm a sucker for anything with a dog. happy I have seen the trailer for the Marmaduke movie on TV a couple of times. I recognized Lee Pace (the guy from Pushing Daisies - which I never watched) as his owner in the trailer. I just hope it is better than Garfield. I didn't watch Garfield when it came into theaters, but it was one of my favorite comic strips, and the movie didn't do well at all. Marmaduke is probably of a better quality. Surely they were careful not to do a repeat of past bombs.


myLot reputation of 96/100. carmelanirel (12216)   ranked 292 out of 10,799 in watching movies  2 years ago

I didn't see Garfield either, I think it had to do with the character just looked too weird or something..Glad you told me, now I won't water money renting it..:)
