Garfield Gets Real

[powerjake]

This animated Garfield movie is just terrible, its story and the animation are very poor. The real world doesn't have any real differences to the wacky cartoony comic world that Garfield lives in, making the real world plot extremely pointless. For some reason the Real World is just another cartoon world, Cats and Dogs sing and even talk to people. also has characters like Hale and Hardy, a muscular cat and muscular dog. The people in the Real World were not even shocked to see the comic character Garfield leave the comic world. A cat named Shecky from the real world ends up in the comic world in the end of the movie and everyone in the real world again were not even shocked by it.

If the writers of the movie were smart the Real World should of been entirely live action.

Actually, there was at least one notable difference between the two worlds:

In Comic World, there are cartoon physics; in the “real world”, there are none. If I remember right; that was one of the things about the “real world” that made Garfield realize it isn't what it’s cracked up to be.

A live-action version of that world may have been technically right, but was probably besides the point (not to mention that live-action Garfield was already done shortly before).

I’m not big on GGR- or the DTV trilogy overall for that matter- mind you, but it looks like you missed a key aspect or two about it.

Curious: Is The Garfield Show in that same continuity?

Nope, TGS doesn’t take place in the Comic World of these movies.

I know this movie, since i have watched it in Albanian. The movie is very bad. Why is not the real world live action, if it really is the real world?

Let's face it, Garfield is one messed up little cat.

I don’t think that was the point of the movie, really.

Maybe your right. I was being sarcastic.

It would have made better sense if the film had done either hand-drawn animation in the cartoon world and CGI in the real world, or CGI in the cartoon world and live-action in the real world.
