I'm the only one who thinks this is horrible looking and definitely a bad idea?
Had this come out when I was in fifth grade, I would have peed my pants. Now, I not only don't care, but I'm irritated that it's coming out.
And that's another thing- why is Garfield so active in this?? I thought the whole point of his character is that he only runs when there's food around, and otherwise just sits there or sleeps. You know, an "I only move when I HAVE to" kind of character. And why is Odie not CG? Garfield is, and there were all of those tongue and drool jokes with Odie... why not CG him?

Will Hollywood ever learn that live action adaptions of cartoons are never a good idea?
The answer is no. Hollywood will NEVER learn a THING. They'll continue to make movies people do not want them to make and destroy and whore out every character everyone's held dear. They'll take every movie that is actually good and milk sequels out of it, even though the story should have ended at the first movie. They're out of original ideas, and they're scraping the barrel for remakes and sequels and live-action versions of cartoons and stuff like that because they don't want to risk going outside of their "sure-fire hit" formula (sure-fire hit in quotes because we know they're not all hits... heh heh). It's sad. And even when people want a sequel and the story's left open for one, there's a good chance that Hollywood will mess it up anyway. THESE MOVIES SUUUUUCK......
THAT'S DANNY. His hometown is New Orleans.

at least they got bill murray to play garfield, its only fitting.
bill murray: peter venkman in ghostbusters movie
lorenzo music: peter venkman in ghostbusters cartoon
lorenzo music: garfield in cartoon
bill murray: garfield in movie
Or it could be shortened to:
Garfield Cartoon: Lorenzo Music doing a Bill Murray-ish voice
Garfield Movie: Bill Murray doing hopegfully his normal voice, unless he's retarded like Mike Myers and uses an old SNL voice that doesn't fit.

What next? Pinky and the Brain?
Actually that could be a great movie... COULD I know it would be horride in practice but the possiblity is there.
Pinky and the Brain, and to a greater extent Tiny Toons/Animaniacs/Freakizoid/Hysteria were about two things:
-Parodies of popular culture
-Lots of celebrity cameos (well charactures of celebrities, but play along)
Both of those lend well to movies if done right. Pinky and the Brain could be an Austin Power's type spy movie for kid's from the villian's point of view, you know Brain tries to take over the world and have the fictional agency trying to stop him and through a series of Pinky's pratfalls they fail and assume the Brain is the greatest villian in the world... obvious he's stop in the end but that's at least a little more then an hour's worth of story there (long enough for a kid's movie, no?)
and since it's live-action, obviously they could expand on what the cartoons did... why not have the store clerk with the Schwartzenegger accent BE SCHWARTZENEGGER?! As long as they keep the cameos child appropriate (you know who I'm referencing, Paris Hilton in Cat In The Hat!) it'd be great fun.
yeah, so like I was saying... Pinky and the Brain could be a great movie (*could* being the keyword, we'll have to wait another 10 years until the license is truely dated before anyone considers it) but it's going to suck.
HOORAY! I gots Photoshop back!
