Marmaduke Page #8

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.

It started with a bath,

and now look at us.

We can do this.

I'm not gonna

let you go.

I can't do it.

I promise.

Let go,

and I'll catch you.

I love you, buddy.

Come on!

Phil, I've been waiting since

Kansas to have you say that.

Come on, let's go!

You can do it, buddy.

Right here. Come on.

Trust me.

I trust you.

Here I come!

Atta boy, buddy.

Come on!

Right here.

Swim to me.

Let's go. Come on.

Phil, help!

Get me. Phil, get me!

All right,

come on! I got you.

I love you, buddy.

Thank God, you got me! We did it! Yes!

You got me, Phil!

You got me!

You're safe, buddy.

Those aren't tears,

it's just a little water!

Good boy.

Harness coming down!

I still hate water!

I know you're not

gonna understand a word of this

but I've never been so happy to see

that big, ugly face in my whole life.

I'm done pretending

to be a top dog.

A real top dog

looks out for his family.

And you are my family.

That's it,

I can't stand it anymore.

I'm gonna give him

the tongue.

That's a good boy!

I know, I know!

I've been on this

crew nine years.

And that, my friend,

is some pretty strong stuff.

Come on, buddy!

Honey?

Dad!

Dad!

Hey, guys!

Are you okay?

Hi, Dad.

I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm just

a little wet, that's all.

Marmaduke!

Look who I found!

Marmaduke!

Oh, yeah!

Get a little Marmaduke.

Let me wrap my

paws around you!

We missed you.

Hi, there.

Hi!

Okay, you're all wet!

Gosh, I love you guys

so much.

This is all my fault. I

never asked what you wanted.

I've just been trying

so hard to make this work

that I had no idea

you were so unhappy.

I guess what I'm

trying to say is

I think we should

move back to Kansas.

What?

Move back to Kansas?

Kansas? Uh-uh. Toto

ain't going nowhere, papi.

That's crazy talk, Dad.

Hey, Brian!

Dude, we got it all on tape.

We're putting it on YouTube!

Sweet!

It's good to see you,

Bri. What are you doing?

Brian, who are

your friends?

They're just some kids

I met at the skate park.

They're pretty cool.

Hey, boys!

Hi.

Sup?

Hey, Barbara!

Hey, what's Hasselhoff

doing here?

Bodie? You came.

Yeah, I came as soon as

I got your text message.

Is everybody okay?

Yeah, everything's

much better now.

Those were some pretty

sick moves, Mr. Winslow.

Thank you, Bodie.

No worries, Phil.

It's Mr. Winslow.

Yes, sir.

What do you think, babe?

I don't know. I like

it here. I think we fit here.

We fit in the house.

We don't fit in

that company car.

I just missed you.

Looks like we're home.

Looks like the family

landed on their feet.

There's just one more thing

I got to take care of.

Check it out.

Here goes nothing.

What the heck is he doing? Is he crazy?

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Don't just stand there,

do something!

I am.

I'm standing my ground!

What's up, Marmadukey?

You here to

exact revenge?

Actually, no, Bosco.

I'm here to thank you.

Thank me? For what?

For showing me

how wrong I was.

I don't care what

everyone thinks of me

'cause it doesn't matter

if you're big or small

or a pedigree

or a mutt.

We're all just dogs.

And that's the way

the park should be.

So I'm gonna sit down and

claim this spot for all the dogs

who don't think they have

what it takes to be over here.

Sup? Yeah.

You gotta be kidding me.

You're kidding me, right?

Does everyone here have

rabies-induced insanity?

This is sacred turf.

It's just for pedigrees.

Well, not anymore.

You know what? You're all

just mutts. All of you!

Let's go, Jezebel.

I think everyone

should sit here, too.

I'm done taking your

spit on my head, Bosco.

Go find somebody else to drool

on. We're through with you!

Come have a seat, fellas.

It's lovely up here.

I can see forever!

Fine, have it

your way, losers.

I'll remember this.

Payback's gonna be a...

Bee! Bee! Ahhh!

Victory!

Victory is ours!

The Duke's our boy!

Huh! Looks like I'm not the

only one terrified of bees.

Bees are scary.

Listen...

I don't know how to say this

without hurting your feelings...

Shh!

I'll be fine. It's time to finally

stand on my own four legs for a while.

Besides,

we'll still be friends.

Ouch! I hate it

when girls say that.

Mazie?

Wow.

Hey, check it out.

Looking good

in the pink.

What are you

waiting for? Go!

Mazie, wait up!

Oh, hey!

You look amazing!

I feel like

a fluffy monstrosity.

Listen, I wanted to say how sorry

I am for the way I've been acting.

I was a real jerk,

and you didn't deserve it.

I think my brain just turned

into an Afghan Hound for a while.

No offense.

I totally heard that.

It takes a big dog

to admit that.

Yeah, I...

What?

Your eyes. You have

really pretty eyes.

And I never had

a chance to tell you.

Thanks!

Your fur's

really nice, too.

Winslow!

Oh! I wonder what ever

happened to that PETCO deal.

Winslow! Winslow? There you

are, I've been looking for you.

I thought I was fired.

Don't be so sensitive.

Any man that chooses

his dog over his career

is a man I want

working for me.

Besides, have you seen the video of

you rescuing Marmaduke on YouTube?

Nah.

Six hundred and eighty-two

thousand hits so far.

We got PETCO!

Are you serious?

Totally!

We're gonna sell

a lot of dog food!

Wow!

Come on, walk with me.

We got work to do.

I can't.

Why?

'Cause I made plans

with my family.

Who? Oh. All right.

All right, tomorrow.

Monday.

Monday. Deal.

Deal.

Don't push it, okay?

Okay, I'm just

spit-balling here

but what if the dogs

could talk to each other?

I don't really buy it.

What if they

could dance?

# Hey!

# What I like about you

# You really know

how to dance

# When you go up, down,

jump around

# Think about true romance

# Keep on whispering

in my ear

# Tell me all the things

that I want to hear

# 'Cause it's true

What's up, boys?

That's what

I like about you.

# That's what

I like about you

# Hey!

Hey!

That's what

I like about you.

# Hey! #

It's still pretty

rough. What do you think?

I love it!

Great job.

Thanks, Deb.

Wait for it.

Wait for it.

Oh! Marmaduke!

What did you eat?

Man, you got

a serious problem.

It never gets old!

# Hey!

# What I like about you

# You keep me

warm at night

# Never wanna let you go

# You know you make me

feel all right

# Keep on whispering

in my ear

# Tell me all the things

that I want to hear

# 'Cause it's true

# That's what

I like about you

# Hey! #
