'Good Boy's dog, Indy, and filmmakers play Choose Your Squad

I mean, what's there to say

Iconic. There's probably the most famous dog in a movie around, you know, up there with Lassie and Rin Tin Tin

That's a first round draft pick. We're going to do a Choose Your Squad themed to Good Boy

We're going to put some famous cinema dogs, for the most part, on board

And the goal is, let's say there is a Good Boy 2, and you could pick anybody from this list to, like, basically pull a Ghostbusters with Indie

Oh, wow. I mean, I feel like you need Snoop's intelligence for sure

For Anatomy of a Fall? Yeah. Yeah, I think it would be two different kinds of dog performance

I feel like, I think Messi's better trained than Indy. And I think that might be a benefit for sure

That's what I'm saying. Yeah. We've thought about what's the Messi-Indy team-up movie

Yeah. We don't have anything we want to say just yet, but we'd love to take the meeting

Ask for yourself, for sure. Yeah. I feel like, how can you turn down Rin Tin Tin? Yeah. Yeah

Rin Tin Tin's amazing. It's hard to deny he's probably the greatest dog actor

He changed people's relationship with dogs. There's a great book that talks about how like in America most dogs live like outside

until like Rin Tin Tin came around and the idea of an inside dog and Rin Tin Tin an actual war hero fought in World War One introduced German Shepherds to the wider world Yeah it hard to compete with Rin Tin Tin I have learned an insane amount about this Yeah this is great because I know more about dog actors than I probably need to

Rin Tin Tin's going to be able to do a lot. He's actually seen war, so, you know, that would, you know

He's seen those mid-distance stairs. Exactly, yeah. He would be very helpful

I mean. I want to remove redundancies is the thing. I don't know if we need E-Buzz if we have Indy, because Indy has seen ghosts so covered

It's true. E-Buzz in some ways started this all, so Poltergeist was in many ways the kernel of the idea

The film Poltergeist opens with E-Buzz exploring the house, clearly clued into the haunting before the humans have picked it up

And that's what caused me to first write something in a journal of entire haunted house movie from dog point of view

So, yeah, I mean, that's the grandfather of this idea. It really heightens it, too, because what really struck me was

the whole thing with haunted house movies is normally there's a kid and no one believes the kid, but the kid can say

there are ghosts. Yes. And good boy, this poor dog can't be like, hello

You're right. Weird stuff is happening. Not to get, like, literary, but, like, it's kind of a great version of dramatic irony

The audience is like it not exactly ahead of Indy but they understand things he doesn which is great because that also means it comes across as natural in a way that a lot of bad decision making in horror films feels phony

Like, why would the babysitter go down there? But, like, that's exactly what a dog would do

That was a strange noise inside of a house. Like, that's, you know, that's what a dog would do

What if it's your point not to run down the stairs and check that out? Totally. Air Bud knows how to use tools

Yeah, we like to say that Jed from The Thing is, you know, Daniel Day-Lewis of Dogs

and that Air Bud is like the Tom Cruise, you know. It's a sport

He's an athlete. He wants you to see him get those jokes in

I mean, what's there to say? Iconic. There's probably the most famous dog in a movie around

you know, up there with Lassie and Rin Tin Tin. I mean, that's a first-round draft pick

I think if we're going to have a golden retriever, we should go with Air Bud. Yeah. I mean, there needs to be a golden on there

just for Indy's preferences, for sure. Every hero needs, like, a man in the chair

Yes. And I think Bruiser could be that. he's been in a lot of law rooms

Right, he's practically a lawyer. Yeah, I feel like it's obvious what Rin Tin Tin and Snoop are bringing to the picture

And Bruiser would be easy to underestimate. And we don't know exactly what that's going to look like

Also, he's got those looks. It can be like the Brad Pitt element of it all

Yeah, totally. Going into spaces and disarming people. It's turned into a caper

I don know if that where we going I like it Yeah I mean if we going along those lines I think you know like someone who played for the other team having zero You know come in just like there is a ghost Yes exactly Yeah Oh for sure How can we not have a Slimer

Oh, that should have been the first answer. All right, so we have Rin Tin Tin, zero

Bruiser Air Bud and Snoop. That's the team. That's five. Yeah, I'm really happy with that

I feel like leaving crypto on the board is like wrong It might also be a little unfair to include a literally super power. Yeah super power dog

It's just he's such a hero this year. We couldn't couldn't ignore of course of course

Yeah, this guy brings a fair bit of chaos on his own. Yes indeed. He'll be the the maverick

I do truly love that like while other married couples were like we're gonna learn how to make starter dough

You guys are like we're just gonna slowly make an incredible horror movie. You know, I actually am not a horror movie person myself

Yes, and not a filmmaker by training, not a horror movie person

Yes, inherently, it's a horror movie. Yes, at least we've been told it's scary

It's a little hard to know if your movie's scary. It's hard to know if your own movie's actually scary. Or as you experienced

But it's also a love story at its heart, too. And it's really about that relationship between a person and their dog

and how much they love each other. And I think that a lot of people really connect with that

I should never come here
