CHUD.com - A Movie Website and SO MUCH MORE. - Articles - News — ... 3 years to become a fucking joke*. Nobody learns any lessons in Hollywood though, and now Owen Wilson will have an animal-protagonist franchise of his own to regret in a few years. Fox will be putting a live-action/CGI mix (are there any good movies born of that formula?

Owen Wilson Is Practing His Big Dog Voice
Cinema Blend News — Owen Wilson Is Practing His Big Dog Voice Somewhere out there, Owen Wilson is sitting in front of a mirror and practicing his barks. THR says he’s been hired to voice Marmaduke the Great Dane in Fox’s upcoming computer animated movie named, appropriately, Marmaduke . It’s based on the theoretically popular (because it’s in a lot of papers, though I’ve never met anyone who likes it) comic strip about a really big dog who gets into all sorts of trouble. I’m no expert on the strip, but I had no idea that dog actually spoke in it. Isn’t it just a bunch of humans standing ...

Owen Wilson to Play Marmaduke
/Film — ... a stop-motion puppet in Fantastic Mr. Fox soon, a film that I’m not too excited for, but will at least be more creatively fulfilling than a film featuring a CG Marmaduke. At this point I’m just worried what other classic comic characters film studios will set in their sights to adapt into horrific CG/live action monstrosities. I also wonder if it’s ever possible for these sorts of projects to ever turn into good films. Source: THR A Day in the Life of Director Shawn Levy Judd Apatow’s ...

Owen Wilson, the voice of MARMADUKE
gordonandthewhale.com — ... to be some good source material to work with, right? It was announced today that Owen Wilson has signed on as the voice of the title role in MARMADUKE. From what I recall from skimming past this comic in the funny papers, Marmaduke doesn’t really talk, but relies on the narration of the Winslow family to explain his situations.  The film will see “Marmaduke navigate a volatile Mutts vs. Pedigrees turf war, woo the purebred of his dreams and overcome a fall from grace,” according to The Hollywood Reporter .  I guess one would need a voice for that.

Collider — ... THR reports that Owen Wilson (your grandparents don’t know who that is) will provide the voice of Marmaduke, “the rascally Great Dane… a slobbery pooch who creates chaos wherever he goes.”  I assume that when they said “chaos”, THR meant “comic mayhem” since “chaos” would imply the terrifying existentialism of uncertainty.  If that’s the direction the live-action/CG movie is headed, then I take back my skepticism.  Joining Wilson are Judy Greer, Lee Pace and William H. Macy as ...

Owen Wilson Going to the Dogs
Inside Pulse Movies — ... Bears? (Meanwhile: reads that Shawn Levy is making a Berenstain Bears movie. Slaps head.) Come on, studios. I know you love these movies to be cash cows, but what’s with the need to have it be a mash-up of live action and CG? And more to the point, what’s with the mediocrity in the adaptations. It can’t be that difficult to tap into the essence of what made the comic strips and cartoons so fun to begin with. Families can expect this one in June 2010. Source: THR ...
