04.28.09 ‘PLAY DAD’, GET IT????????
Disney released a poster and an inexplicable seven-second teaser (which originally aired during Oscar credits and you can watch below) for the I-can’t-believe-it’s-a-real-movie Old Dogs. If there’s one positive thing to take from this, it’s how far movie dogs have come as a society. Just a few years ago, a dog on a movie poster like this probably would’ve simply sneezed, or covered his eyes his with his paws when confronted with family hijinks. But this dog takes responsibility. With one simple gesture, he says “It’s okay, I’m part of the family now. I feel your pain and I want to help.” Looks like someone taught this pooch the most important trick in the book: empathy.
Haha, I love you, Patches.

‘PLAY DAD’, GET IT????????
“Sit. Stay. Play Dad.” sounds like dating a stripper.
John Travolta is an old dog?
I’m guessing Bearded Collie.
Travolta played dad for 16 years, but that didn’t turn out too well.
*insert slow clap for Burnsy here
That little girl has a mischievous look because she’s replacing his butt plug with a hand grenade.
Robin: Its not your fault.
Travolta: What are you doing?
Robin: Its not your fault.
Travolta: Stop it man. Don’t do this to me man.
Robin: John, its not your fault.
Robin and John hug.
Travolta(Sobbing): The nanny was from Mexico.
Also I don’t get it. I’m playing dad rt now and it’s pretty cool and all but when do you ever get time to “Sit, Stay”?
They left out the most important command. Play dead.
:::brain flickers to life:::
Ignore me….
That dog is the second furriest thing in that picture.
I’ll be honest. I had to sit here almost an hour to think of something to write that didn’t involve Jett Travolta.
Every time I see that related headline that says “Russell Crowe tonPlay Bill Hicks” I swear to JHC I just want to wipe Hollywood off the face of da Earff with a tactical nuke.
Really, if you’re a hitman waiting for a mark to come home, and you have to take a shit, why do you leave your gun on the counter? I mean, what is the point of that? How inept of a hitman do you have to be to separate yourself from your weapon? You deserve to die.

They should have created a role for Michael J Fox and the poster could read Sit. Stay. Shake.
The dads get even with the kids by donning their big fat ladysuits from other movies (Mrs. Doubtfire/Hairspray) to “accidentally” get caught having gay sex when the kids come home from school!
Xenu vs. Nanu Nanu
I’m fairly certain Jett can currently do a better job with Photoshop than whoever made that poster.
I bet that movie set was a real mess with all that shedding. I hope Robin cleaned up after himself!
Robin Williams drinks Travolta’s ‘juice’ through his finger so they can talk
BANNER PIC:
By the look of those double chins and wide jowls up there I’d call this Battlefield Girth
Why are they still trying to make Travolta look pop-culturally relevant?
His appeal died after Stayin’ Alive, sometime after the turn of the century.
But the Bee Gees – they’ll live on forever, man.
Someone forgot to tell Maurice that.
Al, I think Barry Gibb’s ghost would beg to differ
Video Clip: Man, John Travolta has strangely specific sexual fetishes.
**Williams points at Travolta’s hair
**Travolta points at Williams’ chest
Together: “Haha! I love you, Patches.”
Last time Travolta played a dad He got his kid killed.
