What the ending needed


Yes, the ending had all the dogs dancing to the Romantics' "What I Like about You"--including the Duke's (that my nickname for him) very robotic robot dance--and then Duke farting in his owners' faces and then winking at us, the audience, which was a nice touch as such "fourth wall breakings" always make me feel more engaged with the characters.

But what the ending needed after that was a rap song that highlighted the Duke's adventures--with the appropriate scene replayed to accompany the music. You know, something like

Duke! You came from Kansas!
You're a dog, that's what the best friend to man is!
Taking a bath? No way, you're not having it--
Run down the stairs, draggin' Phil like an idiot.

No, what the ending needed was to happen about 82 minutes earlier than it did.

That rap is hilarious. I wonder if other people can tell you are being sarcastic.

I don't think they can tell he's joking. Oh well. I thought it was funny.







Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion.

I just saw this movie on cable! And I totally recommend, if it's an option, to watch it in HD, to truly appreciate the colors and shadings and hues and whatnot.

Anyway, here's more of my "rap":

Livin' large with the fam--that's short for family.
But then they said California is the place you ought to be!
Are you gonna fit in, or stick out like a giant oddity?
Better hone up on the culture and watch "The O.C." on DVD!

If the producers want me to record my rap as an extra on the Marmaduke 10th anniversary special Blu-ray/DVD, I am willing to negotiate with them.

We've got less than four years left, so let's make this happen, people!
