There’s so much junk tv out there I’ll stick to rewatching my dog movies and Nicholas Spark movies over and over

Is there anyone who's seen "Ol' Yeller" more than once?

Like, speaking as an 80's/90's kid, our parents seriously bought us this movie, thinking we'd wanna see it more than once after that ending? They could've just rented it, returned it, and saved the space on the shelf that would always be filled because I don't know of anyone who's ever watched this movie more than once

dog movies

Dog movies should be published under categories so that we always know what we are getting into. Said categories should be:

It's ok the dog doesn't die. It doesn't matter if anyone else does but the dog at least is a-ok.

Warning! Tissues and emotional stability needed. Not recommend to watch when already sad.

Dog dies but people react accordingly.

I want a movie about someone struggling with addiction fall ass-backwards into adopting a rescue dog who is traumatized as hell by their previous shotty owners. Then over the course of the movie the two of them learn to fight their demons, together, with friendship and love.

But like that's just act one.

Then in act two they accidentally discover while on a walk in the park, that the dogs former abusive owner IS ALSO the drug dealer who got the protagonist hooked in the first place!

The movie culminates in this person and their dog dramatically taking down a local organized drug crime ring!!!

I hate it when actors talk about an animal they had to work with on set and it’s obvious they were not patient with the animal at all. You especially see this with non cat people who had to work with cats and are like “Working with that cat was the bane of my existence, never on cue, scratched me once, always seemed afraid of me.” Like yeah, she’s a cat. She could probably sense you hated her. It’s hard enough to be an animal in the entertainment industry without some guy being a dick to you. Are you that uncharitable with human costars (and particularly child actors) or do you just hate animals?

Conversely, it’s so heartwarming when an actor speaks positively about an animal they worked with and/or there are behind the scenes stories of the crew genuinely trying to make the animal comfortable and giving them grace.

One of my favorite examples of this is Mad Max 2 (1981) which was made on a budget of $4.5 million AUD (about $13.5 USD in today’s money). They ended up casting a dog from the pound that was scheduled to be put down and by all accounts the dog was a nightmare to work with. But most of the cast and crew loved him. The dog’s name was Dog so his character’s name was also Dog. He was difficult to train but super food motivated so they kept writing dog food into scenes for him. He kept freaking out on set and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. Eventually they realized part of the reason he kept acting out was because he was terrified of the sound of cars and motorcycles so they had special doggy earplugs made. His character was supposed to be aggressive but real Dog was very affectionate and could not be made to behave aggressively so they had to use selective editing to make him seem more menacing. When filming was done multiple crew members wanted to adopt him because he was such a good bad boy. He was adopted by one of the stuntwomen and got to live out the rest of his life doing actual blue heeler things. That was his only film role.

Muzzle 2023 trailer indicates it's a complete subversion of numerous cop gets police dog on a case movies. This man wants a rough, fierce, mean dog to help him avenge the death of his k-nine partner and bring the culprit to justice.

Four minutes into the movie displays the soon-to-be-deceased k-nine being his listening ear.

I do like so far how the cast and crew's hearts really shows in the trailer and in the movie so far making it Really Good.

I look forward to finishing it after finishing watching another film on Netflix.
