Tin Tin Not Nominated for an Oscar

The movies that are up for Oscars have been announced, and as usual, this dog is not particularly pleased with the choices. I'm not saying that the choices aren't good movies. However, when Puss and Boots--a movie starring a cat gets a nomination when Tin Tin--a movie starring a dog does not, you know that the Oscars are not being chosen properly. Evidently, cats have taken over the process. Although I don't mind cats, they can't be trusted to be impartial or unbiased. It is just their nature. This is why I don't watch the Oscars, and don't bother to keep up with who wins. When I know Tin Tin isn't going to be chosen, why would I bother to watch. Usually, they choose humans, and humans are never as good in the acting profession as dogs. I am personally planning another Demon Flash Bandit boycott of the Oscars. I won't go to them, watch them, or accept one when I'm nominated. Okay, maybe I would accept one if they offer me one. It would be one of the few times when the Academy gets it right!

Tin Tin: Movie Review

I was pleased to be asked to review this film for my readers. As usual, the theatre was a pleasant experience, and I enjoyed the snacks during the movie. The movie I saw was Tin Tin. This is the story of a young dog, Snowy, who belongs to a journalist named Tin Tin. The humans may think Tin Tin is the star, but they would be wrong, as usual. Tin Tin buys a model ship from a dealer who has items from an estate owned by an old sea captain. This starts him on an adventure because there are others who want the model. The model is part of a puzzle that leads to a treasure. SPOILER ALERT: A bird works with the villain so be prepared. I wish I had known that an evil bird would be in the movie so I could have prepared myself for its presence. You know how much I hate birds! The dog was cute and brilliant, and deserves an Oscar for his performance. Captain Haddock also deserves to be applauded because most fish are unable to pull off playing a human so well. There is one other scene I need to warn you about. If I had known ahead of time, I would have brought some ear plugs because there is one scene where the lady is howling about something--I can only assume she was dying or something. Snowy had to put his front paws over this ears and hide under a chair while she was screaming. I did the same thing. No dog should be subjected to such hideous noise which was called opera.

All in all, I give this movie my highest award of doggy achievement in the world of cinema which is a 9 out of 10 on the human movie scale.

I hope all of you can see this movie because Snowy is worth watching!
