Yeah but the stress makes it sound more like "canine". I think you're right in that's what they're referring to but the pronunciation is sort of wrong.
This is one of my favorite reviews from you and I've watched it every Halloween season since you put it up. The whole 'The Dog Who Saved' series is just a gold mine of stupidity to pick apart. They're all just so lazy in how they're trying to present a cute family movie but watching reviews go insane over HOW stupid they are is where the REAL entertainment lies! Also, I wanted to point out that the shot on 10:15 is the cat's head photoshoped onto the cover/poster from The 40 Year Old Virgin. As Duke said "WHERE'S THE JOKE?"
Offhand, the best way to do screwy shadows would be to make the wall out of cheesecloth, put a very dim, diffuse light on the other side of it, then have someone on the other side to make the shadows by following the people. But it would be fiendishly difficult to get the light levels right, and if you're going to that much trouble, just do Pepper's Ghost.
This movie's plot could have SLIGHTLY worked if they'd had it be Cole who was new to the neighborhood, perhaps moving in the month before and getting decorations ready then (which would be weird to everyone else, but would be necessary for such an elaborate haunted house in a brand new house). It additionally would have had a moral story of 'don't judge new things before finding out more about it/them' instead of... whatever this had. Not really understanding why the writers decided everyone had to be fighting over the idiot ball in order to make this plot they came up with work.Other than incompetence. Yeah...
+Bobsheaux Being new would help with not being able to find out about him when asking for him by an informal name. No one not really knowing him well yet would explain that plot hole too!
So this movie's entire plot is the neighborhood submitting George to an insane, over the top, and stupid practical joke. Rather than just say "He makes a haunted house every year, sorry if the lights and noises bug you" they watch him trip over himself and make a complete ass out of himself while shaming him at every turn.
I someday, want to find whoever is making these movies where talking dogs save various holidays, and subject them to an endless watching of Tentacolino. Seriously, whoever keeps making these and the "Air Buds" movies? Because I seriously doubt kids like these movies...
+Swift Nimblefoot As a former kid, we were pretty distracted by the dogs and as a result, weren't really entertained, but weren't paying attention. It's like how you dumb old people get sucked into watching bad action movies full of attractive people. I think I contacted my inner child too much and offended myself, bye...
These "The dog who saves...." series are guilty pleasure to me. I keep watching all of them even-thought I know they're awfully made. Maybe because I love dogs :p
20:49 It's because they're dogs. I mean, seriously I used to have a dog who was half Black Lab half Welsh Corgi, and his parents didn't seem to mind breeding.
I'm starting to feel that talking dog movies would be more effective if the dogs didn't talk. It's hard to write a mute character, especially in movies, but if the dog's a good actor, it's a worthwhile challenge.
That dog could save anything.. *EXCEPT THE MOVIE!!!* It`s nice to see your reviews on TH-cam again, Bob! :D Oh, and that shadow, effect, could be pulled off with a projector (just make sure nobody gets distracted by the blinding light facing them), ... or just use Adobe After Effects. :/
Why would no one recognize Professor Cole if asked using his nickname? The movie acts like no one ever goes by anything other then their formal name if at work.
at 11:17 you could tell he was writing with his non-dominant hand just to avoid being in frame, if you have a good crew then that wouldn't have to be like thay
Hey Mr. Thomas, I've got a grand film that includes a talking cat and stupid scenes that only the company known as Phase 4 could produce. It's called A Talking Cat !?! I am not kidding you, it is literally called A Talking Cat !?! And it's way worst than this movie, I swear on my false name and deceitful nature.
Ergotth after the poor decisions channel awesome has made and how Doug's Reviews have reduced quality I really don't want to see him make that video. #Changethechannel
Son of a bitch! The old man is Lance Henrikson! Aka Bishop from Aliens or Detective Vukovich from The Terminator. How far the mighty have fallen... On a separate note, anyone notice how cheap the movie feels?
my kids love this movie unfortunately...I let it play due to the red head from clueless. The cat picture has the head on what I believe to be the 40 year old virgin picture
It looks to me he's wearing a foot brace. I had to wear 1 of those when I broke my foot since I suck at using crutches (I was born with bad balance :P).
A series of misfortunes connected to the people who've brought Superman to media outside of comics. George Reeves was mysteriously murdered, Christopher Reeve was paralyzed, and more recently, Zack Snyder lost his daughter to suicide.
A kids movie where talking animals is a seemingly normal thing that people acknowledge... and yet that's not the point of the movie nor is portrayed very well? WHY CAN'T KIDS EVER GET A LIVE ACTION MOVIE WHERE TALKING ANIMALS IS A NORMAL THING IN SOCIETY AND IS THE POINT OF THE FILM!? DO THEY THINK KIDS _LIKE_ BEING BORED!?
If you think the cat/dog romance is weird, then you haven't seen the powers of a dog on heat. I heard of a male chihuahua breeding with a female Great Dane. They lay down if the male is smaller. As Zues said, "TMI!"
Oh God this movie.... I started off some what liking it, then slowly disliking it, then I full blown began to hate it >:( Glad to see someone finally teared it a new butt hole! :)
Had to skip through all the "lightning" in this movie since I have epilepsy. Seriously, movie people. Lightning doesn't look like a fucking strobe light. -_-
Theodora Dae I once got this DVD on how to haunt your house for Halloween, and they point out a special kind of flicker plug that would turn on your strobe light for only a second at a time to simulate more realistic lightning. And I can't find that kind of plug ANYWHERE...
I don't like it how you didn't mention the actor Meatron the angel from supernatural. It just pisses me of When seeing one of the characters in a stupid movie.
not even the star power of Dean Cain, Lance Henrikson, Kevin James' brother and Booger from Revenge of the Nerds will save thi train wreck of a kids film
At least that had something of value for kids. Introducing them to classic literature through the slice of life antics the characters go through, and the show represented those timeless stories so faithfully that adults praised it too.
"Former K-9" is a reference to police.
"K-9 unit" is the unit that police officers use dogs.
Yeah but the stress makes it sound more like "canine". I think you're right in that's what they're referring to but the pronunciation is sort of wrong.
It's a joke that works better in writing.
I always store my zombies in closets. You never know when you need an extra arm
Does one of them have the Zombie Flanders?
Never too old to carve pumpkins! DAMN STRAIGHT
Thanks for the mention! That made my day. And yes the TH-cam Nazis are cracking down on me.
Hunter, ladies& gentlemen! XD
Never give up, never surrender!
Critics help critics, always, also there's this new site that's like youtube, it's called dailymotion.
now all we need is Nostalgia Critic reviewing The Dog who saved Easter xD
MrKlausbaudelaire I'll probably add that to MY review list.
Hunter,you and Bob should collab for the dog who saved easter

This is probably why you don't let your pet cats wander on their own. Also this haunted house does look awesome
12:04 "What was he going to do if his kids didn't come along with him?"
He'd probably just stand there waiting for help.
Omfg 25:51 that old lady looks like the teacher from A.N.T. Farm
(I babysit, I'm forced to watch)
That's her alright (she was also on icarly) you'll notice alot of the stars of disney and nick sitcoms tend to show up on these terrible dog movies.
I also recognize the guy at 7:15 I believe he was an archangel or something on Supernatural.
it is the same actress
This movie's plot could have SLIGHTLY worked if they'd had it be Cole who was new to the neighborhood, perhaps moving in the month before and getting decorations ready then (which would be weird to everyone else, but would be necessary for such an elaborate haunted house in a brand new house).

+Bobsheaux CURTIS ARMSTRONG!? WHY!!!!!!!!!!! Why must great actors be cursed with misfortune!
+Bobsheaux Being new would help with not being able to find out about him when asking for him by an informal name. No one not really knowing him well yet would explain that plot hole too!

Dean Cain, from an Ivy League school to a shitty family Halloween film
20:49 It's because they're dogs. I mean, seriously I used to have a dog who was half Black Lab half Welsh Corgi, and his parents didn't seem to mind breeding.
If the Title Doesn't Exist yet I'll Do it 20:48 "IT MUST BE A BOBSHEAUX! DUH DUH"
This movie reminds me off the movie "the Burbs" only that "the Burbs" was funny and shot well, also my good can Tom Hanks flip out.
7:17 I have a feeling he's just Metatron just trying to screw with him.
I'm starting to feel that talking dog movies would be more effective if the dogs didn't talk. It's hard to write a mute character, especially in movies, but if the dog's a good actor, it's a worthwhile challenge.
We do need more silent acting these days.
"I'm a former Canine." What are you now?
That dog could save anything.. *EXCEPT THE MOVIE!!!* It`s nice to see your reviews on TH-cam again, Bob! :D
Oh, and that shadow, effect, could be pulled off with a projector (just make sure nobody gets distracted by the blinding light facing them), ... or just use Adobe After Effects. :/
After checking IMDB I am saddened to see Lance Hendriksen and Mindy Sterling being dragged into this
That lab looks bored as hell, even he's fed up with the movie.
10:20
I might just be seeing things, but...
ARE THEY ON A GREENSCREEN?
+ProbeVoyages ...Weird.... It DOES look like greenscreen... O_o
Bobsheaux really?
@@Bobsheaux it has to be a green screen.
This movie gave me a drain bamage.
Have they done "The Dog Who Saved Vallentimes Day" yet? That'll problably be the worst out of all of them.
Oh god... O.O
oh the humanity....
they are planning on doing a dog who saved summer vacation though...
Jane B
......if I didn't have a dog myself, I would want to STRANGLE that dog!!!
Yeah, I'm sick of that dog spawning bad movie after bad movie
You know you've screwed up when this film misused Monster Mash, compared to other Halloween films.
Must be a Bobsheaux!™
Still waaaaaaaaaaay than "A Halloween Puppy"/"The Great Halloween Puppy Caper"/ Whatever David Decoteu wants to call it.
Out of sheer curiosity, what the hell was with the "Zero Hour" skit they had? Was it to make the supposed Haunted House owner more evil?
17:19-17:22, 23:59-24:02 Admittedly, that is a pretty interesting effect. I wish I knew how that worked too.
Why would no one recognize Professor Cole if asked using his nickname? The movie acts like no one ever goes by anything other then their formal name if at work.
at 11:17 you could tell he was writing with his non-dominant hand just to avoid being in frame, if you have a good crew then that wouldn't have to be like thay
"Fat guy is your stereotypical fat guy..." lmao xD
It's Booger, and Dan Vs and Snot from American Dad... Curtis Armstrong.
Who's watching this Halloween review in September?
The guy who plays Max is Dan from Dan Vs. and Snot from American Dad
Curtis Armstrong!!
Yeah, don't remind me
That jogger guy looks like my pastor. Wild.
20:38 must be a Bobsheaux
Jack Sullivan yup.

MrKlausbaudelaire that would be awesome
Ergotth after the poor decisions channel awesome has made and how Doug's Reviews have reduced quality I really don't want to see him make that video. #Changethechannel
@@huangwen-si7498 The channel wasn't his fault. And I still like him
@@LaineMann Cool, man. That's fine with me.
You should review The Dog who saved Easter.🐶🎄🎃🐇🥚
god, just watching this review was painful
Can anyone else understand the other criminal's name? I can vaguely make out "Put Down Into Fork-a"
This movie tries so hard to be The 'Burbs and fails so badly
Son of a bitch! The old man is Lance Henrikson! Aka Bishop from Aliens or Detective Vukovich from The Terminator. How far the mighty have fallen... On a separate note, anyone notice how cheap the movie feels?
+Freemind He plays a badass captain in Harbinger Down!
Econman he is the only good thing in this movie.
8:55 No! IT'S HASBRO MOVIE WILL KILL US ALL!!!
klimmr3021 Quick! Hide in Barbie's Closet! It can't stand the extreme amounts of pink!
Hey Bob have you seen the new Alpha and Omega movie? It's called Alpha and Omega: Legend of Saw Toothed Cave
20:50
Better question...
"How does a DOG fall in love with a CAT and Vice Versa!? They're two different species!
7:18 "I think he's a mad scientist." Aaaaand there goes any potential plausiblity this movie could've had
It just raises too many questions.
my kids love this movie unfortunately...I let it play due to the red head from clueless. The cat picture has the head on what I believe to be the 40 year old virgin picture
Ok the pumpkin headed scarecrow is a nice little in joke but it's reminds the parents there a much better movie to be watching
Oh Jesus the dog is voiced by Amy Fowler... I got one question. WHYYYYYYYYY?!
11:50 How is George walking on a broken leg?
It looks to me he's wearing a foot brace. I had to wear 1 of those when I broke my foot since I suck at using crutches (I was born with bad balance :P).
Oh my, my brain is complaining about the amounts of stupidity from this movie.
Goddamn it lance Hendrickson you were in aliens and pumpkin head
12:42-12:54 In the same way Ned Flanders’ house is a mad house.
6:23 What Superman Curse?
A series of misfortunes connected to the people who've brought Superman to media outside of comics. George Reeves was mysteriously murdered, Christopher Reeve was paralyzed, and more recently, Zack Snyder lost his daughter to suicide.
I remember being a kid watching this.
Yes, I hated it.
Dude, I saw Hunter (that brown pegasus) review The Dog Who Saved Christmas, and that was stupid enough for me.
So does the Movie play in Queens?
The two robbers remind me of the robbers from Home Alone
But even Harry and Marv are genuinely entertaining.
Does everyone have puppey power? Seriously everyone seems to be able to communicate to their animals?
The animation looks more like a home video than a movie.
ok if this movie turns into superman vs pumpkin head it might be worth it
cole neighbor is Metatron from supernatural
what kind of blackmail material did the director have on lance Hendrickson
This movie’s trying to be The Burbs but failing miserably
With a touch of Rear Window for spice.
Wow,i kinda lost the track here.Are these new reviews,or just re-uploads ?
They are new uploads to TH-cam. They were originally on Blip, but the two strikes on his channel got lifted.
A kids movie where talking animals is a seemingly normal thing that people acknowledge... and yet that's not the point of the movie nor is portrayed very well? WHY CAN'T KIDS EVER GET A LIVE ACTION MOVIE WHERE TALKING ANIMALS IS A NORMAL THING IN SOCIETY AND IS THE POINT OF THE FILM!? DO THEY THINK KIDS _LIKE_ BEING BORED!?

As Zues said, "TMI!"
im just worried that cats have barbs
a video from 2014 that still has 0 dislikes
wow
Anyone else notice that George looks like Kevin James?
More like a poor man's Kevin James.
What the hell is Admiral Hackett doing in this movie?!
8:54 Wee Gee board or whatever?
10:32-10:48 If I wanted to watch Rear Window, I would just watch Rear Window.
Wow Bobsheaux, that movie’s title already sounds stupid! If that is an indicator of a movie, that tells you that the movie is bad
No it's the other way Around You Exchange gifts at Halloween and You Bobsheaux For Apples at Christmas, LOL, I'm sorry I couldn't Resist.
I hope Hunter sees this!!!!!
This is idiot plot at it's finest
Maybe the film makers were trying to rip off disturbia
Not knowing that film was ripping off Rear Window too.
City Hall? NOT DOG GONE
This movie looks and feels like A Talking Cat.
Oh God this movie.... I started off some what liking it, then slowly disliking it, then I full blown began to hate it >:( Glad to see someone finally teared it a new butt hole! :)

Besides, it wasn't even raining during the "lightning" sequence.
+Shelly Kemp There can be lightning without rain where you are. I know why, but it was for research I did in 5th grade, so I don't really remember.
Thea Dae You can tell this TV movie had really cheap lightning effects. I agree with you that real lightning doesn't look a fucking strobe light.
I don't like it how you didn't mention the actor Meatron the angel from supernatural. It just pisses me of When seeing one of the characters in a stupid movie.
Oh yes, this movie is definitely not a rip-off of Spooky Buddies...
Except that film actually put in the effort to have the lips of the animals move when they talk.
@@MovieFan1912 wow my comment is 7 years old haha! Anyway you’re right and I always loved those films when I was a kid
4:14 I honestly don't see anything wrong with that sentence...?
can you give me a link to hunters rewiev
Ding!
Hunter Reviews: The Dog Who Saved Christmas
not even the star power of Dean Cain, Lance Henrikson, Kevin James' brother and Booger from Revenge of the Nerds will save thi train wreck of a kids film
Me: 18:20-18:24 my spirit fat guy
Im still waiting for cars life
Patience, patience.... lol
Bobsheaux im being really patient I havent asked you in a while
Is it just me or does this movie kinda remind anyone of that old show Wishbone
I remember wishbone it's better than this
At least that had something of value for kids.
Introducing them to classic literature through the slice of life antics the characters go through, and the show represented those timeless stories so faithfully that adults praised it too.
Stop Dean Cain abuse!
Uh.....yeah....he's....not exactly the best person....
Yeah, this movie is totally bare bones copy of The Burbs.
The lowest quality movies.
