All movies like this are bad. Remember Scooby-Doo. I think SD would have been good if they had a good screen writer.

They made Garfield look like this huge cat. Bigger than the comic. That is wrong. I plan on seeing this because I'm a loyal Garfield fan.

Good to note: JDavis (the spriter/comicer) has no affiliation with Jim Davis (the author of Garfield). Thank you for your time.

<sarcasm> What's next? A sequel to that crappy D&D movie? </sarcasm>

Saw the trailer.

Now, I have plushies who looks more like an cat... notice that there is an ordinary dog in the trailer. Which looks odd besides the cartoony garfield...

If a movie makes a lot of money, and if a sequel is feasible, you do it. Doesn't have to be in 2 years, it can be in 5 or 10... but if it's guaranteed money, it's done.



Basic rules of movies... except Lord of the Rings.

Garfield in a movie? Can't believe that. It will stink. But they are taking cartoons and making them movies now, such as Spongebob.

Garfield SUCKS. You know the guy doesn't draw his own strips. He fucking milks everything. Nothing's funny about Garfield. Davis doesn't have to try, everyone buys into it. I'll admit I am picky about comics, but Garfield has NO effort.

I would love to see the trailer.

Twice.

Really, I vouch for more than post count when I say this is possibly the most retarded thing ever. Feel free to top me, folks.

Is the trailer anywhere online?

I saw an picture from the movie once, took me awhile to realise that the weird plushie looking thing was garfield.

The Garfielf and friends show rocked just based on the voice of Lorenzo Music. The only bad part of the cartoon was Binky the clown. If you go back and read the comics from the 80s, the 10th through-19th books, those were good.

Oh well, as long as Fox Trot keeps going, I'll be happy.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. *snf* ...I used to looooove reading Garfield in the paper when I was younger, in fact, that's what started me drawing in the first place. In fact, well, my current sig comes from one of his old books.

And now, years later...this. This, this movie thing. Technically I guess I can't say anything without actually seeing it, but the trailer doesn't look promising. ...I may get sick.... ><

I'm not sure what to think about a Garfield film. There's worse things that could be done...much worse. I'll probably see it just 'cuz.

As for the Scooby Doo movie...that had the single best moment in all of Scooby Doo...when Scooby bitch-slapped Scrappy. Single best moment, no questions asked.

I thought Scooby-Doo was good. Go figure.

I think that the comics are the best medium for Garfield, with cartoons being second. The trailer didn't look that good, but it was a teaser, not the full-fleged trailer. They can change a lot in a small period of time. (Jimmy Neutron teaser-nothing like the movie.) It'd still be better animated.

If you wanna have odie, make him look more like his comic counterpart or just CG him.

Seen the trailer as well. Though one of the GOOD things about the movie is that the guy who played Peter Venkman on Ghostbusters the movie is doing the voice. Still, it'd be a nice touch of old school if Lorenzo Music was still alive and could do Garfield's voice.

The real Odie, I suppose could have used some work.
