Marmaduke Page #3

Synopsis: Marmaduke, the world's most lovable Great Dane, leaps from comic strip fame (appearing in 600 newspapers in over 20 countries) to big screen stardom in this family comedy event. A suburban family moves to a new neighborhood in Orange County, California with their large yet lovable Great Dane, who has a tendency to wreak havoc in his own oblivious way. But it's not all living large for the Duke, who finds that fitting in with his new four-legged friends - and a potential romantic interest - isn't always easy for a super-sized teenage dog. Owen Wilson gives the beloved Great Dane his voice in the film, which also features the voices of Fergie, George Lopez, Emma Stone and Kiefer Sutherland.

Tell them you know me!

You'll get right in.

Thanks, Giuseppe!

Good first day,

Marmaduke.

You played it cool. And I think I

impressed a lot of dogs here today.

Now, that is

a pretty good...

Bee! Ahhh!

A bee!

Get off of me now!

Look out!

Phil, help me!

Bark Organics dominates

the California market.

With our product

recognition and quality,

we're in a position

to crush the competition.

So, Dorothy, why have I called

you all the way from Kansas?

Why have I been through six

marketing directors in the last year?

Because I want

Bark Organics

on the shelves in every

PETCO in the country.

Bee!

I can't see! Bee!

I won't

let you down, sir.

We'll see.

Watch out!

Coming through!

Sorry!

Are you okay?

Was that your dog?

I didn't get a good look.

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm fine!

It takes a lot

more than that...

Bee!

That dog!

Phil, help!

Phil, get rid of him!

Help me!

Why do bees hate me?

What a gargantuan spaz!

Yeah, but kind of funny.

Hmm.

I heard a vicious rumor that

you're, like, from Kansas?

Yeah. Are those,

like, real dogs?

The canine accessory

is so essential.

We are not accessories.

Hey, man,

in my country, I was a lawyer.

I've been in this

purse so long, I can't feel my legs.

Bodie is

so gorgeous!

Did he just

look at me?

As if!

Yeah, you're probably right. He

probably wasn't looking at me.

Hey, honey!

Oh, my God!

Is that thing yours?

No, it's somebody

else's dog. Not mine.

Hey, Barb!

Who are your friends?

Phil! That was not cool!

Sorry, Barb.

Right. Regional

market share first...

Yeah, yeah.

Come on, Phil, get off the

phone. Brian's going to bed.

Night, Dad.

Hey, Brian, wait up.

Sounds good. We'll talk

tomorrow. Chill, Marmaduke.

Great news!

I ran into another

dad at the dog park,

and guess what

he's in charge of?

I signed you up!

Oh. Soccer sounds...

Great, right?

Sure, yeah.

Man, you're

gonna love it.

Okay. Good night, Dad.

Good night, buddy.

Phil, he's not gonna love it. He's

gonna hate it, you knucklehead!

Come on!

I really miss

you guys, too.

But I did see this

cute surfer kid today.

You need anything, honey?

A little privacy, and a

one-way ticket back to Kansas.

Good night.

Come on, Phil. It's like

you're not listening to them.

# Lullaby, lullaby

# All the humans

are sleeping #

Ladies, please!

Carlos, be quiet!

Your eyes are

getting sleepy.

So sleepy.

Good night, Phil.

# Hey, yo, when I wake up

moaning, yawning

# I put up my hands

# Thank the Lord

for what I got

# and never stop my plans

# Giving all for the goals

# Got to keep it up,

never let my head drop

# Make me a home on my own

# Better make the bed rock #

I'm a monster!

I am a tiny monster.

I'm doing the spin!

This is an O.C. rager?

You made it, great!

Come watch Giuseppe

rip it up!

Check this out!

One leg, one leg...

Hey, Marmaduke!

If you're hungry or thirsty,

the trash can's out back.

And the toilet's in there.

Cool, thanks!

Did that cow just oink?

Meet Mazie's cow.

The factory made a mistake.

It's pretty ridiculous.

Cow that oinks.

I think it's cool!

New record!

Holler at your boy!

Marmaduke, you're up!

No, that's

cool. I'll just watch.

Don't be a wiener dog! Just dance

along to the flashing arrows!

I'd love to, but seriously,

guys, I've got four left paws.

Duke!

Duke! Duke! Duke!

All right, all right,

twist my paw. Duke! Duke!

Atta boy!

Okay, let's see.

This can't be that hard.

Okay, let's see.

Right paw, white arrow.

Left paw, blue arrow.

No, no, left paw,

green arrow.

There we go!

On second thoughts, maybe

this wasn't such a good idea.

Hang on,

give him a chance.

You can do this, Marmy.

Come on. Come on.

Come on, concentrate!

Ease into it.

Are we insured?

No one puts Dukey

in a corner!

The Duke's got

some moves!

You ain't seen nothing yet!

Time to get funky!

He's better than me,

isn't he?

In a way, yes.

Three-sixty

on the big dog!

Pinwheel time!

Time to go old-school!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

I'm sorry. I'm really

sorry, guys. My bad.

No sweat. I needed

to get a Wii, anyway.

There goes Giuseppe's

entire social life.

That was the only thing

I wasn't afraid of.

You know, not that I'm not

having fun, because I totally am,

what do you guys think about going to

the yacht club party, see what's up?

Are you crazy?

Or we could just go to the zoo,

and jump into the puma cage!

Come on, it'll be fun!

Question.

Are we gonna spend the rest of our

lives hiding underneath the porch

with the little pups?

Or are we gonna get out in

the yard with the big dogs?

But we're not big dogs,

we're tiny dogs!

That phrase was made

for dogs like you!

You do realize

it's Bosco's party.

Yeah, Bosco, Schmosco!

He's all bark, no bite.

Okay. Some dogs just have

to learn the hard way.

I smell rain, and I

did not dress for rain.

I'm telling you guys,

without fur,

it's like tiny bullets

from the sky.

It's him!

Who is that?

Chupadogra.

Chupadogra?

They say he was

the ultimate alpha dog.

But then he went insane from

rabies and ate his owner.

He also sleeps on a giant

pile of his victims' bones.

Can we go now, before

I become an appetizer?

Let's go.

I can't believe

we survived Chupadogra!

And now

he knows your scent.

Why would you

say that?

You sure you

wanna do this?

Oh, yeah.

You bet I do.

Guys, I'm telling you,

the tide is rising!

Twenty-four,

come on, you can do it.

Twenty-five!

Man! Now, this party

is off the leash!

What are they doing

to that cat?

What pedigrees do best.

Humiliate the innocent.

Hey, wait, what are you

doing? Don't go over there!

Come on, let's get

our bark on. Oh, oh...

Oh, sorry.

I'll go this way.

No problem. Sorry.

This unfortunately

happens to me all the time.

Me, too.

Oh, brother!

Great, we're getting

mad-dogged. Let's bail!

Well, well, well. If it

isn't the dog and pony show.

Did the circus give

you guys the day off?

We're just leaving Bosco,

back off.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! What's

the hurry? You just got here.

You know, it's funny,

with ears like that

I would have thought

you heard me tell you

to stay away

from my girlfriend.

He told him. You told

him, like, 12 times...

Zip it!

Zipped!

Being a pedigree means

you're exceptional.

We're all bred

for a purpose

and have gifts you could

never dream of having.

Stuart's an expert tracker.

Shasta is

a master sled dog.

Ferdinand is fluent in six

languages, including gopher.

And I'm the reigning

SoCal surf champ.

Are you good

at anything? Huh?

Um... Uh...

Sit!

You are

good at something!

Lay down. Lay down!

That's it.

Oh, no!

This is bad, isn't it?

Yes, it's very bad.

I don't care how freakishly

large you are, Donkey Boy.

We all know that inside you're

just a scared little pup!

Did I say you could

get up? No, no. Please!

Did I say you could get up? I'm sorry!

No mercy, boss.

Put him in

a doggie bag!

Fight! Fight! Fight!

I don't

wanna fight you.
