How did this random tv cartoon from the 60s managed to get a live action adaptation of all things
Why did they make him a real dog instead of an anthro dog
A lack of respect/awareness of the source material.
A lot of random tv cartoons managed to get live action adaptations.
hong kong phooey bros..
I remember this solely because of the boomerang segments with the song
Imagine if he were a pit bull
I remember watching this in theatres and having no idea it was based off of a show. I just assumed the animated sequences at the very beginning were made up footage meant to spoof/homage old cartoons or something like that.
He was played by Syndrome in this film. Literally sounds the same.
If Alvin and Fat Albert could, then why not Underdog?
I thought I was the only one who remembered this movie
Because boomers know it. The Simpsons made a joke about this era years earlier.
Bart: Who the hell is that?
Homer: Bullwinkle.
Bart: Who? Wait a minute, who's that?
Homer: Underdog, don't you know anything?
Bart: It wouldn't hurt them to use some cartoons made in the last fifty years.
Homer: Bart, this is the tradition. If you build a balloon for every flash in the pad cartoon character, you'll turn the parade into a farce.
Was this the same episode with the fricking Funky Winkerbean reference?
Boomers remember it and since they were in charge of Hollywood at the time, made it a movie
I was impressed at how many dirty jokes were in this movie.
This, there was at-least one joke about eating shit.
Ways hated making cartoon stuff into hyper realist shit. Underdog could have worked amazingly into a cgi only film.
I dot get why human cgi became so common at the time, alvin and the chipmunks, underdog, yogi, woody woodpecker. Peter rabbit, the smurfs, is always ugly, only sonic the hedgehog half-baked movies succeeded at making it almost tolerable by making the second movie almost 80% cgi.
In the 2000s-2010s Disney would just pick random cartoons that they somehow got the rights for and shit out cheap live action movies for no apparent reason
>George of the Jungle
>Mr. Magoo
>Inspector Gadget
I'm surprised there is no live action Disney Doug movie
>Disney Doug movie
cast Porkchop
It's weirder that all these movies felt like they were made by the same director/writer
They probably were; either literally or figuratively
>Leslie Nielsen
God, I miss that fella.
of the Jungle
It's a good B-movie.
Gadget
Gets too much hate because of the stupid product placements in the American English version but in other dubs it's a fun sci-fi flick for children.
how the hell do you make a mister magoo movie
This was the very definition of ok, I should probably re-watch it to be honest
Goddammit, Spain
Pretty much everything was made into a movie around that time. Whether it be 60s crime shows, 80s cartoons, obscure children's books, teen romance books, cult graphic novels, you name it.
Now, there's pretty much mainly superhero comic books and biopics.
