Oh god no. Definitely dud

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:08 (twenty-two years ago)

That's so blocked. Are we talking about the cat or the president?

I hope it's the president. He had a good beard IIRC.

― Maria from West Side Story (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:09 (twenty-two years ago)

It's the cat. Hm, you know, I would seriously go find all copies of this movie and piss on it.

Marking your territory again?

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Didn't we already have a Garfield: The Movie thread?

(That is not a phrase I ever expected to type.)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm right behind you Ned, oh no wait...

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

You don't want to know what that involves, Dan.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Fuckin' computer graphics have ruined everything! I always thought Lord of the Rings would work better as an animation (well, there was the Ralph Bakshi version, but that was, how should I put it, incomplete), but because of CGI we have the Jackson flicks. What next, a live-action Simpsons film?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Supposedly an (animated) Simpsons film has been in the works forever.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:13 (twenty-two years ago)

They should do a Simpsons film as a puppet show.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:13 (twenty-two years ago)

But who would Sifl and Olly specifically play?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:15 (twenty-two years ago)

My apologies:

garfield: the movie.

― adaml (adaml), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Karl and Lenny / Kang and Kodos

Hmmm

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

What about the rule that says every Bill Murray film is a good film?

― Madchen (Madchen), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

They forgot to account for The Razor's Edge.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Purest fannydangle.

Because it didn't work as animation. End of story.

― Nicolars (Nicole), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Pixar are only 5 mins drive from here. I am taking likenesses of all of you over there in order that they may begin work on the epoch-making ILX CGI-animated schmaltz fest.

― adaml (adaml), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:17 (twenty-two years ago)

bill murray is doing the voice for the movie while the voice of garfield for the tv show was the guy who did the bill murray voice on the ghostbusters cartoon - the circle is complete, the battle for mordor has just begun

― cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Ah, Nicolars, but look at these triumphs!

Will Gary Shandling be the voice of Ned? Or Gilbert Gotfried be the voice of Dan Perry? That's generally the way these things work.

― Nicolars (Nicole), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:21 (twenty-two years ago)

garfield: the movie.

NOW I WILL KILL YOU.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I like Pixar, btw. Don't blame this monstrosity on them!

I blame people who still have those stupid stuffed Garfields in their car window.

― Nicolars (Nicole), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Between that and Baby on Board, we have the eighties.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:23 (twenty-two years ago)

haha, my apologies.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, that was directed at Nicolars for her vile voice acting suggestion. ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I like Pixar too, but when they're done with all of us, maybe that will change.

― adaml (adaml), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

And Lorenzo's dead, too. Not to forget Tummi Gummi.

Dashing and daring
Courageous and caring
Faithful and friendly
With stories to share
All through the forest
They sing out in chorus
Marching along
As their song fills the air

Gummi Bears
Bouncing here and there and everywhere
High adventure that's beyond compare
They are the Gummi Bears

Magic and mystery
Are part of their history
Along with the secret
Of gummiberry juice
Their legend is growing
They take pride in knowing
They'll fight for what's right
In whatever they do

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I want eric dickerson to do my voice!

― cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I would end up with Tori Spelling. :(

― Nicolars (Nicole), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Clearly my voice will be done by Phil Lamar, since he's doing every black male character on television these days.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Dan, hold out for Malcolm Jamal Warner.

― Nicolars (Nicole), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:29 (twenty-two years ago)

If you had to pick someone to do the voice of a computer-animated Garfield in a live action movie, you probably couldn't do any better than Bill Murray, all things considered. I would now like to nominate Christopher Walken for the role of the voice of Odie.

― Tom Breihan (Tom Breihan), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Ah, then it would be the greatest movie ever. But Odie doesn't talk in the strip, I seem to recall. It would just be Walken slobbering.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Who would be Nermal? I vote CarrotTop.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:36 (twenty-two years ago)

I was about to say the same thing!

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:36 (twenty-two years ago)

As Ned.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:37 (twenty-two years ago)

You were going to say something as me? Wearing a wig?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:37 (twenty-two years ago)

dial down the center ned

― cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:38 (twenty-two years ago)

What about Garfield's girlfriend? Can't recall her name, but who'd play her? And does the film include Jon's gay neighbour who originally owned Odie?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Now I'm saying it as you!

― Ned-o Raggett (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:39 (twenty-two years ago)

betcha rowan atkinson pops up in this

― cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Rowan Atkinson 'popping up' in anything means I will become a monk.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:41 (twenty-two years ago)

He could be the gay neighbour! What was his name anyway, you know who i'm talking about, the moustached one...?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Lyman.

(Anyway, for the image of Atkinson as Lyman inviting Jon to 'come on over' you have placed in my head: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

John Di Maggio (voice of Bender) as Dan.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:44 (twenty-two years ago)

I think you have just made the casting call of the millennium, Mr. Farrell. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:45 (twenty-two years ago)

No! It can't be...

"...that's not true! That's imPOSSIBLE! NOOOOOooooo!"

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:49 (twenty-two years ago)

I want everyone to know that if I'm completely insufferable for the next week, you can blame Andrew.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:49 (twenty-two years ago)

I really like the idea of Walken being in a movie but not talking or physically appearing. Or maybe Jon could have some sort of fever dream where Odie stands over him with a knife and rants about how Jon never feeds him enough snausages.

― Tom Breihan (Tom Breihan), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:49 (twenty-two years ago)

EW BAD MENTAL IMAGE

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:50 (twenty-two years ago)

An ornery Peter Lorre as Julio?

― adaml (adaml), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Rosie O'Donnell as the spiders!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:52 (twenty-two years ago)

ha!

― cinniblount (James Blount), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Jim Davis is from the same town as James Dean: Greencastle, IN if memory serves. There is a little Jim Davis wing in the James Dean museum there.

― teeny (teeny), Thursday, 23 October 2003 16:44 (twenty-two years ago)

GARFIELD SMASH!

― Little Big Macher (llamasfur), Thursday, 23 October 2003 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, Tuomas -- Jon & Lyman were "roommates."

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:17 (twenty-two years ago)

This just squeals "direct to video", cept it will be so bad, the kids would drop it into the nearest toilet.

(Pity, as I loved Garfield, when he was all fat and squiggly lines)

LEARN from the remake of The Cat in The Hat, for fuck's sake!

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Did that already come out, Nichole?

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Not yet (til 21 November), but I can predict that not even Mike Myers will be able to save it from tanking.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Ha, I like how they've chosen the "goofy in a sexy way" actor for Jon Arbuckle.

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Exactly, as Jon Arbuckle couldn't pull women if you put a gun to his head.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

OOOh yeah! Can't wait for this nor Baby Blues: The Movie, Hi & Lois: The Movie, nor Johnny Hart's B.C.: The Movie. I hate Mondays. ;-)

Gasoline Alley: The Movie!

THE FAMILY CIRCUS: THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 18:51 (twenty-two years ago)

But Dan, they might make the FC kids older to appeal to the masses: Dolly goes from 9 to 14, working in a Vegas strip joint; PJ jumps from baby to skateboard prodigy; Jeffy turns into a manic depressive; Billy becomes a teenage CEO.

they should totally make a mark trail movie with noah wyle as mark trail and every twenty minutes the story would be interrupted for ten minutes of nature documentary

As Bil plunges deeper into the barbituate-induced coma, his hands have a mind of their own...Knowing scale nor time, his stint in Vietnam blends seamlessly into his morning commute to the deadend part-time job he held in college. Finally, his fantasies come to life as he French-kisses his daughter, the dog comes runnning to his unbridled lust, and his unwanted middle child suffers the Devils' grip...--Mr. Kontoontwon

I always used to think that Lorenzo Music was Dennis Quaid for some reason.
