Uh, it’s not exactly viral either.
Marketing fail.
Obviously, the humor and creativity can only be fully appreciated in 3D. Right, Jeffrey?
The marketing department at Dreamworks is AWFUL, well and truly AWFUL.
no, that’s PARAMOUNT’S marketing department and yes, they are truly AWFUL.
Not funny at all. DreamWorks needs to learn from some of the other studios about comedy (Rango, Illumination/Despicable Me, Disney/Tangled, anything Pixar of course).
Funnier than Judd Apatow….but that’s not saying much.
umm….Apatow is alot funnier than this crap.
Oh, for Pete’s sake … does EVERYTHING have to have a laugh-out-loud quality to be valuable? It’s just a joke video to keep the movie fresh in everyone’s mind, and frankly it was a cute play on the character.
Chill out, people.
DWA just milks these franchises to death. Jeezus. I long for a Shrek-free existence….
I keep hearing that but there’s another studio that just released Cars 2 and will soon bring you Monsters Inc 2, and probably Toy Story 4.
Pixar= The New Cartoon Factory.
Who’s the ad wizard who came up with this? Looks like the same scene as the teaser.
no laugh here whatsoever. No pants? Most animated characters don’t wear pants. How is this clever?
Wow a lot of frustrated angry people here.
I thought it was cute and harmless. It’s a little internet video, why the harsh scrutiny?
That’s one cat who needs a close shave.
The character is likable and fun. It’s not mean-spirited, it’s OK.
Nice job, DHD. You totally “owned” these guys.
It wdent viral because it’s fucking horrible.
