Films Of The Decade – Ed’s List

23 December 2009 5:17 PM, PST | FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news »

Each decade of celluloid is defined by its psychological preoccupations. Oh yes it is, don’t look at me like that. The 9/11 terror attacks on New York and Washington cast a long shadow over the first decade of the 21st century. The Nineties had been a relatively stable and optimistic era by comparison and was all the more moribund for it. Tom Sizemore’s speech in Katherine Bigelow’s Strange Days (1995) summed up the emerging consensus – “everything’s been done, every kind of music’s been tried, every government’s been tried, every fuckin’ hairstyle. How you gonna make it another thousand years, for Chrissake?”

But it wasn’t quite the end of history after all. After 9/11 the zeitgeist became politically-charged once more as it had been in more polarised times. Entertainment was not immune from this effect, nor could it afford to be. With rare exceptions such as Paul Greengrass »

Marmaduke Trailer Starring Owen Wilson

22 December 2009 8:13 AM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »

Now this is a drive-in movie if ever there was one! Owen Wilson voices Marmaduke, the clumsy Great Dane from the comic strip by Brad Anderson. Unlike some of the other talking animal comedies out there, they decided not to go the full CG route for the dogs, which is probably a good thing. As far as the voices go, maybe it's just me, but Owen Wilson doesn't seem to fit such a big dog. Fortunately, I can probably overlook that, because check it out... that dog's actually wearing sunglasses! Classic! From the twist on Phantom Planet's "California" to the tag line that refers to him as "The Duke", this teaser trailer is a real masterpiece. Marmaduke is directed by Tom Dey (Failure to Launch, Shanghai Noon) and also stars William H. Macy and Judy Greer, plus the voices of Steve Coogan, Ron Perlman, Jeremy Piven, Emma Stone, Damon Wayans and Christopher Mintz-Plasse. »

First Marmaduke Teaser Trailer

22 December 2009 3:04 AM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

The next iconic comic character to leap off of the printed page and onto the big screen is not some super-powered wonder, but rather a Great Dane with an inclination for incidental mayhem. Director Tom Dey (Failure to Launch) brings the classic comic strip Marmaduke to life in a live-action/CGI hybrid that sees Marmaduke (voiced by Owen Wilson) and his family relocating from Kansas to California. The new teaser trailer is light on content, but it sets the tone for what is sure to be family-friendly entertainment. The Marmaduke comic strip was created by Brad Anderson in 1954 and is still being published today.

Next Showing: Marmaduke opens June 4, 2010

Marmaduke Trailer Goes Live

22 December 2009 2:50 AM, PST | Screenrush | See recent Screenrush news »

20th Century Fox has released the teaser trailer for Marmaduke, the big screen adaptation of the Brad Anderson-created comic strip.

The official plot synopsis is as follows: For Phil and Debbie Winslow, moving their family from Kansas to the O.C. is a big deal. For their enormous Great Dane "Marmaduke," (voiced by Owen Wilson) however, the move means a whole new way of life. It's chaos at home and awkward at work as the Winslows struggle to control their angsty teenage canine.

Director Tom Dey (Shanghai Noon, Failure To Launch) has said that he approached the film like "a John Hughes movie with dogs," and the dog park is "like high school for dogs". The script "sees Marmaduke navigate a volatile Mutts vs. Pedigrees turf war, woo the purebred of his dreams and overcome a fall from grace."

Alongside Wilson stars Amanda Seyfried, Ron Perlman, Jeremy Piven, Judy Greer, »

Throwing a bone at the Marmaduke trailer

22 December 2009 12:27 AM, PST | Corona's Coming Attractions | See recent Corona's Coming Attractions news »

A Marmaduke movie has been in production for a few months now. I've been trying to keep the news from you for as long as possible, but if the movie is being made that also means that one day there will be a trailer out. Guess what today is?

 

 

That's Owen Wilson providing the voice of the big mutt plucked from his single panel comic strip and into the realm of movies. I think it's kind of a bizarre form of penance that Wilson has to lend his pipes to a talking dog part when he played opposite the pooch in Marley & Me a year ago this time.

Marmaduke also will feature other talking dogs, with two Wayans brothers, Zombieland's Emma Stone, George Lopez, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Steve Coogan giving voice to the four-legged characters. June 2010 is when the movie arrives in theaters; plan your family vacation accordingly. »

21 December 2009 11:21 PM, PST | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Start filling out your Oscar pool entry for 2011, folks - the first Best Picture contender is officially here. Wait… No, sorry: wrong story. It's the Marmaduke teaser, and it's now on the magical interwebs.Yes, the latest chatty animal film is heading inexorably for us like a giant meteorite, and there's nothing we can do to stop it. If course, this is only a teaser, one that introduces us to the hefty pooch of comic strip legend who now has Owen Wilson voicing him.Like the Chipmunks, it's clearly going to be aimed at the kiddies and there's no way to judge the final film's quality from a teaser. But really…. invoking The Oc? Just go and watch it (it's short) and judge for yourself »

‘Marmaduke’ Teaser Trailer

21 December 2009 5:14 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »

20th Century Fox has released a teaser trailer for Marmaduke, an adaptation of the long-running comic strip starring the voice of Owen Wilson as a Great Dane.  The instant classic and Academy “Best Picture” focuses on the dog navigating a volatile Mutts vs. Pedigrees turf war, wooing the purebred of his dreams and overcoming a fall from grace.

The teaser is a parody of the opening to “The O.C.” (what a timely reference), right up until the big reveal of a 200-pound talking dog.  Who said talking animals couldn’t be funny?  Oh wait, everyone.

Here’s the trailer from Yahoo:

Judy Greer, Lee Pace and William H. Macy are playing humans, and the rest of the animals will sound like Fergie (”The Black Eyed Peas”), Emma Stone, George Lopez, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Steve Coogan, and Damon and Marlon Wayans.  Tom Dey (Shanghai Noon, Showtime) is directing.

As lame as this looks, »

Marmaduke’s Game Changing Trailer

21 December 2009 1:38 PM, PST | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »

Owen Wilson.  Talking dog.  Movie based on a comic strip.  Animated/live action kid’s movie coming out during the Summer.  Throw a dart at any one of these, and I swear it’ll be my last “game changer” joke until we see something from The Smurfs.

Here’s the teaser for Marmaduke.  It comes to us courtesy of Yahoo! Movies.

The movie also features Emma Stone, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Ron Perlman, Judy Greer, Lee Pace, Steve Coogan, William H. Macy, George Lopez, Damon Wayans Jr., Amanda Seyfried and Jeremy Piven.  Still, don’t expect it to get any ensemble cast recognition at next year’s SAG Awards.

Marmaduke hits on June 4th.

Teaser Trailer For Marmaduke. Now I Hate Dogs And Movies.

21 December 2009 1:22 PM, PST | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »

Yahoo has the brand new teaser trailer for Marmaduke, the lovable Great Dane that has been in the papers for years not making people laugh. The movie looks to be a 100% faithful adaptation of that stupid, unfunny comic strip. So at least they're staying true to the source material. The teaser doesn't have much in it. Marmaduke, voiced by Owen Wilson who for some reason keeps getting voice work when there are people out there who are way more talented than he at the job, is sitting in the passenger seat of a Mini Cooper talking about how it sucks being a dog or something like that. I don't know, I only watched it once and never bothered to rewind it. But hey, this could also be a surprise. I thought Alvin & the Chipmunks (haven't seen the second one yet) was going to suck but it was actually pretty cute. »

New Teaser Trailer for Marmaduke

21 December 2009 1:06 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

You’ve probably been waiting with baited breath for more news on the Marmaduke movie ever since Matt reported on it back in November, and the teaser trailer is finally here. The movie, based on the comic strip about a lovable Great Dane, stars Owen Wilson as the voice of the titular dog. Fergie, Emma Stone, George Lopez, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Steve Coogan, Damon Wayans, and Marlon Wayans will supply additional voices, while Judy Greer, Lee Pace, and William H. Macy will play the roles of Marmaduke’s family.

The trailer is about what you’d expect. Although, I did chuckle at the nonsensical pop culture reference that opens the trailer. And I think I could get behind a talking dog movie where the talking dog breaks the fourth wall, if that style continues beyond the trailer. With a stellar cast, if there’s any chance this movie could be good, »

Watch This: First Teaser Trailer for Fox's Marmaduke Movie

21 December 2009 12:30 PM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »

This is one of those short teaser trailers that's designed to do nothing more than introduce you to the main character and that's it. We get to see about 10 seconds of actual footage and while the dog looks good, Owen Wilson's voice doesn't sound that great. Fox has debuted the teaser trailer (via Yahoo) for Marmaduke starring an actual, live Great Dane this time (instead of a CGI one). If you saw Marley & Me, this is almost like deja vu, at least until you realize that Owen Wilson is actually voicing Marmaduke and not just helping the pup grow into a dog. Despite all the names attached to this, I'm still interested in it. What about you?

Teaser Trailer for Fox's 'Marmaduke'

21 December 2009 12:28 PM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

You asked for it, you got it, a feature film adaptation of Brad Anderson's long forgotten (yet still being published) comic strip with Owen Wilson voicing the titular Great Dane. Yup, it's Marmaduke.

For Phil and Debbie Winslow, moving their family from Kansas to the O.C. is a big deal. For their enormous Great Dane "Marmaduke," however, the move means a whole new way of life. It's chaos at home and awkward at work as the Winslows struggle to control their angsty teenage canine.

The teaser trailer just debuted at Yahoo and you can watch it directly below or in high definition right here.

Marmaduke Trailer

21 December 2009 11:51 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Based on the mildly amusing comic strip of the same name in which a large dog discovers he's too big for life, the first trailer for Marmaduke is here. What I.m not so sure of is whether this trailer is supposed to make the movie look good. From the cringe-worthy music to the fairly bored and disinterested voice work from Owen Wilson, there.s just not much to hang your hat on here. I mean it.s a talking dog, just sort of sitting in a car. Sure he.s a big dog and maybe that.s exciting if you.ve never seen a Great Dane before, in some neighborhoods people only have Pit Bulls, but I passed one walking down the street last night so I feel pretty acclimated to the whole existence of pony-sized dogs thing. Maybe Great Danes are all new to you though. If so, »

'Marmaduke' Teaser Barks Up the Wrong Tree

21 December 2009 11:48 AM, PST | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Granted we haven't seen enough of this film to completely write it off just yet, but there's just something about hearing Owen Wilson's distinct voice and then trying to apply it to a real-life Great Dane that's completely throwing me off. Maybe it would work better as an animated film, and maybe we'll get used to it a half hour into the film, but at first glace I'm simply not feeling this one at all.

Based on the classic comic strip about a Great Dane that causes all sorts of mischief, Marmaduke hits theaters on June 4th and Yahoo has debuted the brand new teaser that's really only a shot of the pooch hanging out of a car while Owen Wilson talks about how hard it is to be a teenage dog (apparently this is a parody of The Oc, though that show has been off the air for »

Why am I sharing this with you? For one, it's movie news. Two, it might keep you away from it if you were ever considering watching it. The Marmaduke comic was just flat out not funny. It might have a lot to do with the change in humor. Brad Anderson debuted the unruly dog in 1954. Owen Wilson does the voice of the Great Dane, who finds it hard to be a huge teenage mutt. Wilson must enjoy doing canine films, before this he did Marley & Me. Perhaps if they do another Beethoven movie, »

Kate Hudson bonds with family to get over split

21 December 2009 5:46 AM, PST | Hindustan Times - Celebrity | See recent Hindustan Times - Celebrity news »

Actress Kate Hudson’s mother Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell are helping her get over her break-up with Alex Rodriguez. After winning accolades for her performance in Nine, Hudson is spending time with her family chalet in Aspen.  "Kate is better off without A-Rod. She had much better chemistry with Owen Wilson,” the New York Daily News quoted Hudson’s pal as saying. “Alex is such a diva. When he came to the London premiere of ‘Nine,'' it was obvious he didn't like standing in the background. He''d show up late to every appearance," the pal added. A friend »
