OK, this one really took me by surprise.
When I saw the one-sheets for the Underdog movie, I thought....OK, this is totally going to royally suck. I mean, in the old cartoon, Underdog is a dog, yes...but he's really a boy with a dog's head, if you think about it. He doesn't act like a dog; he talks; he walks on his hind legs, etc. So when I saw they were using a REAL dog for this movie, I thought...well, this is going to royally suck.
Then last night I saw the trailer with Pirates. The trailer is frickin' hilarious! The audience was laughing like crazy and now I've totally changed my mind on the movie. I don't think it's going to be anything stupendous, but it will at least be original and a good kid-pic for August. I actually think it might do pretty good business.
If you don't have a trailer for this movie but expect to play it, I would suggest you should follow any means necessary to get the trailer and program it aggressively. The one sheet will NOT sell this movie, but the trailer will.
