So - with the release of Marmaduke - a re-do of a comic strip that no living child has read (partially because it wasn't ever funny and partially because it was contained in something called a newspaper - an ancient form of knowledge transfer made out of dead trees popular when people always wore hats and smoked in produce sections and maternity wards) it seems that Owen Wilson cements himself as the dog movie actor du-jour only this time as pointed out in several cranky film-centric blogs Wilson is the dog. Why those blogs should get hit on the nose with a rolled up piece of knowledge transfer made of dead trees is because they all failed to allude to Smokey and the Bandit 3 - Smokey is the Bandit; the only film reference containing an italicized "is" worth mentioning. So as many take a number to step up to the keyboard to type Wilson sells out again! we would first like to say suck it for missing an easy reference - who's the uber dork now? Anyway, it seems that the rehash of animal fodder will never stop until Wilson and Eddie Murphy battle it out in a talking CGI nutria rat fur flying, whoopee cushion joke, fat suit puncturing mega war retooled from a previous generation's not funny animal romp. Our bet is as follows:
Similar to the re-do of The Karate Kid for the urban market Beethoven gets a Hot97 makeover for fall 2010 called B-Diddy starring Eddie as the voice of the rappin', pimpin' Pit-Rottweiler mix with the heart of gold. Wilson plays an Eminem styled Whippet named O-Ring who was repeatedly molested by Black Labs until Diddy takes him in and teaches him how to wear his harness real low around his ass crack.
Now guess who's back in the motherfuckin house
