My nephew did watch this movie. He's 5 years old. His favourite passtime is pressing buttons on toys, not even playing with them. This movie still bored him enough to turn it off halfway.

I saw this movie two times in a row when it first came out a bit ago. I babysit two boys, one is 5 and the other is 7, and they lost their fucking minds over this movie, especially the youngest. They laughed when the dog shit, they hated zeus with so much passion, and they cried when they thought Marmaduke was dead. The second the movie ended they had me restart it and we watched it again. It was torture. I've been trying to forget this movie ever since, and I thought I was going to make it to the grave without ever seeing this nightmare ever again, but no. Here I am. Thank you Danny

I will never get over how terrifying and gross the animation style is. I’m a sucker for animation and I accept pretty much any art style, remembering that people tried so hard to make it. But jeez, who approved this?? It’s so ugly looking, the lighting in particular

As someone who was on deviantart for years I have the wonderful ability to pinpoint every fetish in this movie

I feel like Pete told his agent - “I’m dating a single mom and I gotta do something to make her kids like me - are there any kids movies I can do?”

Even as a kid, I remember just hating movies where the whole joke was "horrible untrained dog causes endless misery." It's so irritating and they always play it like the dad or parents are the bad guys for getting fed up with being injured and having their property destroyed, instead of a single person training the dog.

As someone with IBD, it’s really nice to finally have representation in media. I too have failed to make it to the bathroom and had to relieve myself in the nearest chalice…

How tf was Marmaduke ever supposed to compete with a dog that can lift a convention center, a dog that can mass hypnotize people, and a dog that can create a Reality Marble? No shot.

As an unofficial, unauthorised spokesperson for Netflix, I can confirm: we’re absolutely making terrible movies intentionally. In fact, we’re doing it just to fuck with you, Danny.

Danny: "The dog trainer actually isn't the villain!" Danny 2 seconds later: "So the dog trainer beats the daylights out of Marmaduke and then tortures him"

There are two traits to a villain: -Rich -British

"Dad, they hit the pentagon!" "Diggity dang that dog!"

I hate it when Danny’s boss won’t let him give movies a negative score out of 10 😢 hope the boss learns to give him a little more range, maybe up to the amount of the range of Pete Davidson’s acting abilities 😔🙏

I think the whole point is they know that these movies won’t succeed anyway, so they throw everything out the window and bank on the movie getting traction - especially on social media - for how bad it is. Also, the fact this came out after Netflix fired/cut funding from its animation departments DID NOT help this movie’s case.

I'm horrified that there could be a universe where people look like this and events like this happens

Personally, I think that the trainer is speaking to Marmaduke through his own language, not the other way around. We are talking about a guy who is renown worldwide for his ability to train and discipline dogs. I think he’d have picked up a few tricks to understand and communicate with them along the way.

The fact that the mom can even keep herself balanced with that anatomy is just marvelous

This doesn't even look like a Netflix movie, this just looks like something you'd find in a Walmart's Bargin Bin or some Direct to DVD store.

You know....after discovering this movie.....we need to apologize to the Emoji movie....

I liked the older live action Marmaduke! It was silly and lighthearted. The dogs moved in believably real ways, even with human expressions--they used CGI well

Netflix is known to make the movies ever. Their movies have actors who act, the writers write, the producers produce and so fourth. Cinematic marvels

The worse thing is that Marmaduke's designs is not even comparable to the comics, which went for a more realistic approach. Not only is this a bad movie, this is also a bad adaptation

10:15 You're not half wrong. Marmaduke from symptoms I've seen was experiencing GDV (Gastric Dilatation Volvulus) which is condition that is life threatning for dogs if not treated in time. It usually happens to big or deep chested breeds like the great danes. I did a homework project on it and the fact that is potrayed as a joke hurts my feelings.

Some kid at school asked me “have you heard of marmaduke?” And we straight up had an entire conversation in tech class about how awful marmaduke was 😭

i think we should all feel bad for the animators who get handed the script and have to go “holy f*** i cant believe we have to try and make this look okay.” then fail miserably anyways💀

I feel like Netflix just has their own department solely dedicated to making horrible low budget movies on the off chance that it will become an ironic hit and be torn apart by commentary UKpostsrs

The animation of the end credits was way more aesthetic and stylistically fitting than the animation of the entire movie

The fact that Pete went from voicing in the worst Netflix kids movie to the best character in one of the best Transformers movies (In my opinion)

Danny: This rich british dude actually isn't a bad guy Rich British guy: *Kicks a dog and sends it flying into a tree and charges the family millions of dollars for it*

As an artist who mostly focuses on character design, I commend the animators for their sheer commitment to making every single character look as grotesquely unpleasant as possible. I'm not even being sarcastic: genuinely impressed. Didn't think I'd find a less appealing animating style than the Adam's Family movie from a few years back, but damn...Marmaduke's mouth movements when he talks made me want to close out of this video entirely

My teacher made us either watch this or help my math teacher (she was the best math teacher ever) glue a bunch of paper together for something she was making. More than half the class was helping out and our teacher let us sing to music until the movie was done because we finished early. That was one of my favorite school days ever.

12:20 the editing was so good that i questioned whether the crack in the wall was real for a sec.

I literally never understand why bad movies think farts and eating too much food is like the funniest thing ever. I swear it always matches the same awful quality of animation too, just.. who tf is making these movies I’m genuinely so concerned

that whole entire fart scene was definitely purely a fetish thing and I will not be thinking otherwise

the 3 characters designs of marmaduke: eerily slender bouncing kinder egg pixar mom

13:48 "Innocent dog"

As someone in the arts, this movie is so ugly. like even if it had a compelling, groundbreaking story it would still be horrible just because of the animation style

You know a movie's bad when you not only aren't attached to the MAIN CHARACTER, but also be upset that he isn't dead. You have to TRY to fuck up that badly

I remember watching this movie with my brother… After the whole fart bomb thing. This line perfectly sumed up my feelings about the entire scene: 11:08

My parents set this up for dinner together because my mom thought it might be cute, and we couldn’t stand it.we had to turn it off 20minutes in because it was so horrendous. 💀

I feel like they realized how much popularity Riverdale got for being terrible that they decided that that was the way to go instead of just... making enjoyable shows people want to see. Like they've just been putting out the worst garbage that you honestly need to see to believe so they've still got a subscriber base, but it's just such a shame that they've valuing clout for being terrible over making actual media art that people would want to see and enjoy.

I grew up in a really rural area and we didn't have high speed internet until I was about 13. What I always looked forward to other than watching cable TV was on Sunday, which was when the in color funny papers came. I remember reading Marmaduke and other comic strips and it's what inspired me to be an artist. Brad Anderson died in 2015 and I think even if he was alive and completely senile he would still hate this movie.

I've seen my dogs trained by a few different trainers and they were all incredibly terrible people. They would sometimes take on multiple dogs at once and just throw them in a kennel in their garage. They would put chain collars on the dogs that woud choke them if they misbehaved. Both my dogs had vastly different personalities and their responses were as follows: The regal spoiled brat would obey, but he would tear up and not look at myself or my parents. The sweet heart who loved food cried loudly. It absolutely broke my heart to watch some of the training and also knowing where they were being kept when we weren't there. They were utterly terrified the entire time. They would often piss themselves and get punished harshly for it. Even my parents had a difficult time convincing themselves that this was for the benefit of our dogs. Eventually however, they realized that the only thing they were doing for our dogs was traumatizing the shit out of them. When the decision was made to bring them home and never trust any trainer ever again, the damage was quite evident. They were prone to aggressive fights with each other, even growling violently at us, and had crying episodes as well as a ton of seperation anxiety. If any of us left the house at all, they would walk to the door and cry loudly. Never trust trainers. Ever.

2:13 I’m pretty damn sure the character designers office was in a potato farm where their only food was French fries cause apparently potato and fries are the only shapes they know. And the mom was based on the farmers wife. (Where else do French fries go? The thighs)

The thing that's going under everybody's radar is that this movie is an animated version of the 70 year old Marmaduke cartoon strip AND there was also a live action version in 2010, which is also terrible

i can’t believe these movies went through hundreds of people (editors, producers, etc.) and was still decided to go public💀

every time I saw the animation of this video play I felt distress. The character designs deserve to be put into a horror movie and the way everyone and everything moved was just unsettling to watch

November 10 1975: The Edmund Fiztgerald sinks on lake superior The dad: That dog!

I love how they went to literally wanting the dog to die, to pretending that they were sad when they thought he was dead.

One of the biggest issues has been the shift from actual voice actors to any famous person the production can get their hands on

The dog is like "please can i go in, i won't hurt a fly" while literally making the family's life miserable.

Always interesting to see movies with such grotesque character designs have such beautiful backgrounds. The trees in the park and the exterior shots of the family home are particularly nice.

Everyone is (rightfully) mad about the art/animation style, but what the everloving f*ck went wrong with the color grading?! Not only is there no color concept, but it's like they tried to make everything stand out at all times, absolutely destroying any contrast or focal point - not to mention the overdone saturation... Anyone making it through the entirety of this movie will simultaniously be suffering from mind-numbing boredom as well as sensory overload - really, great stuff for impressionable children 👏👏👏

animation THIS bad honestly baffles me, because i know there are creators who want to make good stuff. i understand animation is hard and needs a big budget to be done great but there's no excuses for bad writing.

Hey Danny. Thank you for making me laugh out loud during my depressions. It helps with the sadsies! You remind me of one of my friends who I miss dearly.

10:53 my dog pees inside and always does it at the bottom of the toilet. As mad as it makes me it’s funny asf. How does he understand that.

Let's put it this way: If you pick up a 100+ movies that no other streaming service would pick up, they can now advertise that they have 100+ moves that no other service has.

Best part of this movie was by far when Walter White came in and said "Marmaduke we have to cook" and then they had the crystal meth arc. Lots of character growth for Marmaduke there and it really solidified this movie as an instant classic in my eyes.

11:22 bro released mustard gas

I'm someone who owns TWO great danes, and Marmaduke's design doesn't even look CLOSE to a great dane. You could look at it and say "Damn, that's just a big... Dog." Artstyles still have to make the exaggerated design of a real-world character or object still look like that character or object. For example, great danes have really big paws and big floppy ears, so it'd make sense to put it on a cartoonified great dane. This just looks like they told the designer to fit what they think a great dane looks like in the artstyle of this movie.

Short Answer: Yes, they are looking for a profit so they create these cheap movies intentionally. They have been reinforcing the idea of quantity over quality because most will still watch these awful movies and see them as a variety of things to watch while browsing through their platform. Over the recent years, people have noticed and it looks like they're trying to bring in some award-winning shows and movies meanwhile as they try to stay ahead of their other streaming competitors.

How did they make an animated movie look like it was greenscreened?!

I freaking love this UKpostsr, I never seen any of his videos but this one and him criticising the movie hasn’t made me laugh that hard in a while 😭🤚

i legitimately, unironically believe this may be the single least creative movie on netflix. with the plot of winning a dog show (alongside basically every plot beat being done to death already), guy's lame-ass 'insult', the fake moral of 'believe in yourself', marmaduke's god-awful talent, zeus being disqualified in the most predictable way imaginable, and the shoddy excuse of a last-minute disney death, i don't think even a single aspect of this movie can be described as original in any way, shape, or form, and idk why but that frustrates me way more than any movie has before or since

These poor Netflix animators, they deserve so much better😭I guarantee if there had been more lively acting and enthusiasm this could’ve been a decent children’s movie that you’d watch as a kid and just vibe with. But 😭 they managed to cast the most bland sounding man on earth to voice a DOG?? The most upbeat vocal animals 😭 honestly Netflix is now nothing other than bad decisions

Why do I feel like this is someone's fetish? Im very tired of directors making children's film into just fart and shit jokes. Some of em are so fowl i wonder if it's actually theim sneaking their fetish into these films/shows. Yms has a video highlight where he went through a LOT of children's shows that has disturbing fart jokes.

I've rewatched this video so many times because i find it so funny, and now i always dodge the punch on the "how to dodge a punch segment" xD

This was playing without audio in the dentist and it started at the poop scene to the bill part and now it makes MUCH more sense lol!

the girl's voice acting is too genuine for me to not believe they actually tied her in a basement and forced her to act the poor girl edit: *sigh* yes, my most liked comment comes from a video about the marmaduke animated film

Maybe it's because I have the sense of humor of an 8 year old boy but that woman shouting "our dog is a loser!" actually really got me

the star wars joke with the long bill was probably the funniest part of the entire movie

This video made me laugh so hard that I sometimes had to pause between jokes because my stomach was hurting too much

I’m kinda shocked nobody’s talking about how awful this movie looks. Like it’s visually so bad. I feel like I could find more quality stuff on 2007 Newgrounds

danny: "guy isn't the villain of the movie; he's not even really that bad" guy: beats up pets for a living

“ top 10 things dog trainers don’t want to to know! 😉…..They beat the spaghetti out of your dog! “

Marmaduke: Writer's Poorly Disguised Fetish

To answer the question; yes, they do it on purpose. They know that people will watch it either way, either because they're kids and don't know any better, they're loyal to the brand and will uncritically accept anything that's put in front of them, or just out of bile fascination. Doesn't matter what the quality of the movie is, it'll be found and it'll be watched and that's all they need. So why make one good movie that takes a year and $70m to make when you could make 100 bad movies that each cost a fraction of the price and make the same amount of money (if not more) all put together?

The Sad thing is, there is a Live action movie that is also Called Marmaduke, which came before this Animated Verson, and I actually liked the Live action Marmaduke, I thought it was decently Funny and it had a good message behind it and it had good actors, it even had George Lopaz in it, Idk how well the Original movie actually did but I actually kinda Enjoyed the Original movie, this Animated verson is a Complete Abomination Edit: In the Original Movie when Marmaduke Spoke the Human characters would only hear barking tho other animals would actually understand Marmaduke

6:45 the lesson was you is the top dog

Greg is love,Greg is happiness,Greg is life.

Note that while the Dad is against the Dog the Mom is vouching for Marmaduke despite all he’s done, this leads me to believe that Marmaduke on top of doing all the stuff he’s done is sleeping with the Mom.

The fact this movie had a 50mil budget is a legitimate slap in the face. Like a hand came out of my screen and slapped me in the face for reading that number. (Edit: It seems my calculations were incorrect. Still, any money spent on this movie is a direct attack against mankind.)

I don't even consider this movie a film, I consider it a torture method for my siblings

Teachers be like: alrightbclass today we are watching a classic (insert bad movie you have never seen)

Seeing Netflix closing down their animation department, and then seeing them put out stuff like Marmaduke, a Big Mouth spinoff, and a second Boss Baby TV show just comes to show how incompetent and apathetic they seem to be around animation nowadays. I understand they do have the occasional hidden gems here and there (The House, The Cuphead Show!, and The Sea Beast lead this year's animation catalogue), but aside from that, nothing doesn't seem right at all

Y’all me and my dad watched this movie after watching this video. I cannot even begin to express how horrible this movie is. I’m honestly amazed that Danny was able to make this movie seem like it had a coherent plot at all. He made this movie seem so much better than it was.

I remember, I was in summer camp and apparently I wasn’t there, but my friends there were watching Marmaduke, and they asked if I wanted to watch and I was like, “Heck no!” because I watched this exact video (after the movie came out).

Netflix has people in their basement, they work for their freedom by making crappy movies, the promise of being set free is the only think which makes them even slightly motivated to make these horrible things.

As someone who actually shows dogs it’s so funny to me how movies always make dog shows seem so wild and pretentious 💀 Like.. real dog shows are just a bunch of people who love their dogs trotting them around in a circle for a minute and then giving them cookies for doing a good job. Sometimes you get a ribbon for having a cool dog. Sometimes dogs make little mistakes and everyone laughs it off bc dogs are just like that. It’s a fun time, definitely recommend.

I watched this movie with 7 year olds and they hated it. After they said "I was hoping it would get better but I think it got worse" Even kids don't like it

God bless Danny for always putting the sponsor at the end

The movie be looking like those rip-off clones from another movie

Honestly the "He is Drew Gooden's biggest fan" joke about Guy isn't getting enough attention, that was fucking hilarious 4:54

my favorite part of this movie was when marmaduke said "it's marmin' time" and then he marmed all over the bad guys

Made me laugh so hard I coughed to the hospital 😂

This is Danny’s best hair era

I'll never forgive Netflix for canceling the critically acclaimed Dark Crystal series. It's a legitimate work of art but they'd rather spend a fortune on garbage.

I think the thing with a lot of bad Netflix animation nowadays is that the animation is 3D when it could very well look better in 2D. I feel like whenever artists create sketches of characters, it doesn't always translate right in 3D. Like I know that 3D is technically faster and cheaper, but idk I feel like the integrity of whatever movie they make declines heavily just because the movie's executives want to do 3D since it's so trendy rn. Like it's been proven time and time again for years by companies like Laika and Studio Ghibli that a movie doesn't have to be made in a 3D software for it to become successful.

Dont forget that in the credits, certain things that are worth thousands/ millions, should not even be priced at that amount, like there's dog food worth around like 1 million, and then theres just "food" not dog food, just "food" like, did he go to a restaurant, eat, and then say "you know what? they're gonna pay for my food" and then you notice that they paid for "ear straightening" when the results were unsuccessful.

I looked thru your account and saw that i only watched half of this video so i turned it on and happened to have paused on 13:20, now im scared
