What is it with all these movies and shows with "Air" in them?
As every kid knows Air Bud is that Golden retrevier that can play basketball....
.........
huh? Play Basketball?......well of course! All dogs can play basket ball, just like all dogs go to heaven!

..........
Eh...except for Carface......
SO the dog can play basket ball, awesome, and he does it by chomping at the ball and it goes in the basket....ok....cool....but how exactly did Buddy know that?........
............
No body trained the dog......So.....wait a minute, that's not right, first of all when a dog knows tricks like sit, stay, speak, heel, or shake hands.....they were TAUGHT!
Buddy on the other hand already knows how to play basket ball before anyone taught him.....that's like teaching a baby how to walk but not how to crawl.
Wow...this must be one super duper dog we have here isn't it?
So okay, the movie itself isn't bad, it's actually a pretty good movie, and I'm not here to rant on this movie, no no no, that's not why I'm here at all........
.................THIS is why I'm here:
Oh you got to be kidding me.......Football? and "Just Dog it"......What does that mean?!
So what can buddy do in this movie? He doesn't have thumbs so he can't carry the ball....so.....oh........OH NO
......................................
Nah this isn't ridiculous is it?!?!?!
If you've ever seen the movie (I have...regretably) Kevin Zegers returns for his role as the I-don't-belong kid and after like 30 minutes into the movie chunks his football at the dog.......wham........Buddy catches a football with his mouth....Imagine if you could do that? You'd get some girlfriends....for 30 seconds.
I can't exactly rant on this because...they apparently didn't use special effects for the dog to catch the football...however I'm pretty sure it took the trainers a while for to get the dog to do it right.......BUT what I can rant on is the fact that ONCE AGAIN Buddy already knows how to do something like this before being taught.....
WHO IS THIS DOG?!?!
I guess the better question should be how the mess can that dog catch and hold onto a football with it's mouth?!
Ok so far...not much to complain about...I mean I will give the dogs credit, they actually do the work, no special cheesy effects.......
Next is Air bud world pup.....and Buddy plays Soccer.....which.......forget it next movie

Baseball?

Baw baububua.........Volley ball?

Wait......RUGBY?!
What happened here? Did reality land just leave these people? Dog's can't play baseball...or volleyball......and....geeze do I have to say it?
I've actually seen clips where he plays baseball...and I must say...what world do these people live in?
Buddy actually swings the bat with his mouth, and hits homeruns...
Only in the movies...I mean think about this, how the mess could a dog hit a home run by swinging the bat with his mouth, realisticly speaking, the dog would hit the ball, break all the dog's teeth, and the dog would die of blood loss from it's mouth.
But in some kind of magic, the ball slows down, Air bud barely taps the ball and whoosh there it goes.
As for the volley ball and...Rugby....well that one hasn't come out yet but my point is the reason the movies were successful in the first place is because there were no special effects or anything to get the dog to play the sport, now he's playing Baseball and Volley ball all thanks to some clever CGI
A good idea is a good idea until you take it too far...and it has been done before......but this one was just insane.
But hey, if your pets can ever play Baseball or Volleyball or Rugby or Poker or Connect Four just let me know, I'll delete this rant |
