This will either sound counter intuitive and brilliant or really dumb:

If they write Underdog for like a Saturday matinee movie for kids, they'll struggle to make $30 million at the North American box office. If they sharpen it up and include some really witty adult oriented material, I would expect at least double that or more.

Marketing the movie to the adults who grew up on the original Underdog is a mixed blessing. The oldsters are going to want to see it close to the original, the youngsters are going to want to see their own take, and the kids don't care about Underdog if the thing hasn't been in constant rotation on the tube the week before they start whining to Mom about going.

I don't give it as much of a chance as I did Garfield.

Remember Bullwinkle and Rocky? Deja vue all over again.
