If you have the cojones to watch this new trailer, please quickly seek rehabilitation afterward at FAIL Dogs. A friend close to this production continues to boast maniacally that $100 million box office is a lock. Rapping dogs kill, kids.
Beverly Hills Chihuahuah, starring the voice work of Drew Barrymore and George Lopez, opens on September 26th/apocalypse.

* Looking for bullets *
May 7th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Looks like they were trying to rip off the Indiana Jones trailer at the beginning.
May 7th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
I think they got the point across that they are chihuauas in this flick
captain awesome when you find those bullets send one over my way
May 7th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
It’s like someone at disney saw Happy Feet and said, “You know
what would make that better…..?” “Okay work with me on this,
instead of penguins, how about rapping dogs that looked
like rats!” *pause* Disney: “BRILLIANT” “IT WILL MAKE MILLIONS!”
May 7th, 2008 at 8:24 pm
trying to find words…….
May 7th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
Nothing has ever pissed me off more in my life than this.
May 7th, 2008 at 8:44 pm
ya’ll need to take those bullets down to disney. in fact there’s a few studio folks who need to be put down before they do any more harm.
May 7th, 2008 at 8:55 pm
*slits own throat*
May 7th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
But sluts will love it.
May 7th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
I just noticed by post reads ‘butt sluts’…
Same difference.

I think this is a movie about German Shepards.
May 7th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
I.have.no.words. Did I really just see that? I can’t see anyone actually going to see this…except maybe Paris…with Tinkerbell.

holy fucking shit, im gonna stab my eyes.
May 7th, 2008 at 10:32 pm
So do you all click on the ads that promise to enlarge your penis size too? I’d throw in a comment about contracting a virus but that would just be overkill at this point.
Seriously, Disney recently indicated that they were going to decrease their yearly production slate, for garbage like this? Way to knock it out of the park Iger! Almost makes me long for the days of Eisner.

I really thought you were joking until I clicked through from my reader. I almost cried watching that.

what… what was that… i just… “aye chihuahua”?!?…but it…. I….
*blam*
May 7th, 2008 at 11:50 pm
*CLAPS*
I’m gonna go ahead and give Disney credit. This thing is a sure fire smash. Before I Hunter’s comment about the friend I thought to myself “100 mill at least.”
Regardless that this will mark one of humanity’s low points… somebody over at disney is doing their job.

Why are the kiddies always getting the short end of the stick in terms of entertainment?
May 8th, 2008 at 1:58 am
GreyColumbus,
That’s where I usually go when people say, “But this film isn’t for you guys, it’s for kids!” Yet the material that they keep trying to bullshit others into believing, is still insulting to kids. People can try and justify this and say its for a certain genre. But you can still make entertaining material for both kids and adults. It’s not some “alien” concept. It’s been done before many times.
This is just a typical Hollywood grab at putting some good ole’ “edge” on a film thats been made already. The difference is THIS ONE HAS LATINOS IN IT! Because they’re chihuahua’s you see.
Can’t wait for all the cliche’d product tie-in’s from Taco Bell, The Movie: Videogame, and t-shirts that have catchy spanish quotes in the coming months.
May 8th, 2008 at 2:58 am
Arghh!! I think my brain just liquified! How on God’s earth was this ever greenlighted?!? I think Uwe Boll is involved in this somehow…
May 8th, 2008 at 5:10 am
this is why the terrorists hate us.
May 8th, 2008 at 5:36 am
I can’t believe anyone could possibly sit on a computer every day for months animating this thing. How is it possible?
May 8th, 2008 at 5:39 am
Is it sad that I am most upset about him referencing his Aztec roots while they show a picture of Machu Picchu, an INCAN site, thousands of miles from Mexico?
I think the stars will be even less watchable as dogs.
May 8th, 2008 at 5:59 am
I LOL’d at the trailer for all the wrong reasons.
May 8th, 2008 at 6:14 am
A crying shame…I pity the children.
May 8th, 2008 at 6:22 am
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS???????????????
May 8th, 2008 at 8:06 am
I officially hate Disney now.
May 8th, 2008 at 9:53 am
Oh my fucking gawd!
I didn’t really think it could be that bad…proven wrong,sooo wrong.
May 8th, 2008 at 9:55 am
So… if I buy a lot of drugs to cope with seeing this trailer, then that money will subsidize terrorist organizations intent on destroying Hollywood (and, by extension, crap like this)?
And I get drugs AND movies like this go away?
*ponders briefly*
Okay sign me up. The only alternative is finding that kid with the bullet in his spine from Bowling for Columbine, removing said bullet with my bare hands and stabbing myself to death with it.
/Too soon?
May 8th, 2008 at 11:45 am
I’m looking for the DB old fart that battled me on the poster topic for this film. Tell me now how good this film is going to be now, since the poster was obviously not enough to prove that this piece of Chihuahua crap is going to cause mass suicide.
How did they ever manage to get that many dogs that look exactly the same to dance and sing? It was like it was so real. That was straight up gangsta shizz.
May 8th, 2008 at 11:52 am
Ah yes. Now I remember. Good ol’ Richard (fitting name). Some how involved with spagirl dot com. Perhaps he will grace us with this trailer review to build some excitement on this puppy. Woof! I hope they give away cool toys at McDonalds.
May 9th, 2008 at 9:01 am
The last time I was this offended by a movie trailer was “Whos your caddy?”
May 10th, 2008 at 5:25 am
I am with Muletrain. As an Australian married to a Peruvian the idea that something as significant as Machu Picchu can be Disnified into an entirely different culture is mind blowing. I thought I must have just misunderstood. Why not actually use Aztec ruins? They are pretty amazing too.
May 16th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
I like it.

May 18th, 2008 at 8:14 pm
man you are party poopers this movie rocks
May 18th, 2008 at 8:16 pm
except for ”who cares” man you must be so cool
May 20th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
this movie will definitely be a big hit for all younger children, and i’m sure most parents wont mind it. it is set up to be a simple comedy with lovable main characters, chihuahuas. maybe it just has no appeal to the 35+ “i love to blog my original thoughts and complain about everything” group, but nothing much besides starbucks and thinking people listening to their e-complaining does. this movie will definitely be bringing in more revenue than all of you nay-sayers combined. if you do not like it, don’t go see it. i know i will be going, because the trailer is hilarious and, why not?
May 21st, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Chihuahuas rule!!! I can’t wait for the movie!! If we had more movies like this maybe there wouldn’t be so much negativity!! Its time people lightened up!! Talk about stereotypes & prejudice…what’s up with all the Chihuahua bashing out there.
Give the movie & Chihuahuas a chance!!
May 22nd, 2008 at 2:02 pm
THIS MOVIE IS GONNA ROCK!!! IT LOOKS SO FUNNY AND CUTE! GO CHIHUAHUA’S! I CAN’T WAIT FOR IT TO COME OUT. ALL YOU HATERS F*CK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 23rd, 2008 at 1:53 pm

May 24th, 2008 at 7:16 am
This movie looks freakin hillarious
Me and my friends are going to see it cause of how retarded it looks
May 24th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
Chihuahuas rule!!! It s gonna be a a huge box office hit,go chihuahuas go,and don t forget lot of chicks loves chihuahuas…
May 27th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
THIS MOVIE LOOKS AMAZING
and all you losers who dont like it have nothing better to do anyway
i am sooooo seeing this
May 29th, 2008 at 6:19 pm
After I saw the trailer, I most honestly almmed my head into my dek 3 times.
God, how low has Disney fallen…
June 2nd, 2008 at 9:43 am
For those who dont want to see this and think it is stupid, you
obviously have never met a chihuahua! They have a lot of fun
and watch out for their people. Life with a chihuahua is about
as good as it gets.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:55 pm
Ok seriously, this looks bad. But you know what? If you really get that upset over this that you have to lash out about it on a blog, then you’ve got more issues than the people you are taking to task for creating this movie.
The funny thing is, they are getting paid huge amounts of money to do what they do, and you still live your frustrated existence.
June 3rd, 2008 at 10:20 am
i agree with callie this movie does look “freekin hilarious” and i am gana go see it with my Fiancée and all u nay sayers can go suck a dick and ur prolly still living in ur parents basment and have never been laid or even on a date.
June 5th, 2008 at 10:00 am
Hollywood has lost all COMMON SENSE it seems. I thought it was pretty bad with Alvin and the Chipmunks, but this makes Alvin look like Oscar winning material.
I feel sorry for the investors that got hood-winked into investing in this pile of dog crap.
And the poster Raven, yeah, because people hating a movie really has something to do with getting laid… excellent mental prowess. I can now see this movie’s target audience.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:32 am
My mom better THANK me that I am no longer in second grade.
June 6th, 2008 at 11:52 am
I AM DEFINATELY GOING TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! GEORGE LOPEZ IS SO FREAKING HILAROUS ANYWAY! ALL YOU HATERS NEED TO STOP PLAYIN’ YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO SEE THIS MOVIE…. DONT LIE!
June 8th, 2008 at 6:38 pm
Why do I have a feeling a good portion of the comments from May 20th on are posted by Disney employees?
How on earth can you see any good in that horrible trailer?
June 10th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
you are all crazy!
June 12th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
I can’t wait till this movie comes out!!!! I’m absolutely going to check it out!!! It looks awesome!!! Hopefully I can bring my 2 chihuahuas with me to the movie!!!
June 14th, 2008 at 9:54 pm
Awesome trailer, I can’t help but watch it again and again!
June 17th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
i love those dogs i have one my self its right there the best dog.
June 28th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
Seriously people? You are trashing a movie that is MADE FOR CHILDREN!!!!! It wasn’t meant to be intellectually stimulating. It was meant to make kids laugh. And guess what….. my kids just saw the trailer and laughed their asses off. I guess Disney knows what it’s doing. Disney didn’t get to this point by not knowing it’s target audience. Wake up people!!!!!
June 29th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
I think i’m going to go see it.
June 30th, 2008 at 4:35 am
I loved this movie trailer because I have a chihuahua. Chihuahua’s are very loving dogs. These dogs are only one person dogs. They are very protective animals and will seen vicious when you come to a home where they live. Away from home they are so loving and caring for anyone. Also need to get teeth cleaned at least once a year. I know that I will love this movie.
July 3rd, 2008 at 4:44 pm
YOU PEOPLE ARE ALL STUPID!! This is the cutest thing EVER! Me, my step daughter who is 6, and my Chihuahua Chewy will be there on opening night to see this movie!
I pity you unhappy, lonely people who can’t see the humor in this….you should get a dog - then again, don’t do that to that poor dog.
July 5th, 2008 at 8:47 am
As the owner of the beloved chihuahua; I was giddy to see a precious movie like this coming out. Me, my best friend, and my 10 year old neighbor can hardly wait to spend a fun filled afternoon smiling and laughing and for just a few hours, forgetting all the problems and stresses in the world and daily life. I LOVE THE CHIHUAHUA!
July 5th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Quit hatin’. All we want is the constant attention of our beloved owners. I saw the trailer and can’t wait for my human mommy to pack a sack of food and some pillows and blankets and take me to the drive-in for some all-night hugging, kisses, and snuggling! You guys ought to try it and maybe you wouldn’t be so bitter and cynical.
July 5th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Apparently all the haters have never spent the night cuddled up to a real chihuahua.
July 5th, 2008 at 9:15 am
we are going to rent a mini-van with mollie, critter, the neighbor, and all of our best friends and stop at white castle for a crave case of sliders,(hold the onions) and head to the drive-in as soon as this movie comes out!
July 5th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
OK FOR ALL YOU OVER OPINIONATED FOLKS OUT THERE: IF YOU DONT LIKE THE FUCKING MOVIE DONT GO AND SEE IT. THERE MAY BE A FEW OF US ANIMAL LOVERS OUT THERE WHO WILL ENJOY IT AND WILL GO AND SEE IT. I BET IF IT WAS ABOUT PIT BULLS YOU PEOPLE WOULD STAND IN LINE FOR CITY BLOCKS TO GO AND SEE IT?? TELL ME, HOW MANY CHIHUAHUA’S HAVE YOU READ ABOUT IT THE NEWS KILLING OR MAIMING PEOPLE? N-O-N-E!! ALAS MY POINT IS MADE AND MY CHILDREN WILL BE SAFE IN THEIR HOME. GIVE DISNEY A BREAK, ITS THEIR MONEY, LET THEM SPEND IT ON WHAT THEY CHOOSE. IM SURE THEY ARE FAR WEALTHEIR THAN ALL OF US ON HERE POSTING COMMENTS, OR GUESS WHAT, WE WOULDNT BE HERE!!!!
July 8th, 2008 at 5:24 pm
Well, it looks like the disney fundamentalists have found this thread
July 8th, 2008 at 5:26 pm
took them longer than usual
July 8th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
What is a Disney fundamentalist and what exactly are you trying to say?
July 9th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Disney is god, anyone doesn’t believe in Disney is bad… blah blah, check out these articles i found on proquest… laughingplace… MAD TV Disney Dating skit… “what exactly are you trying to say?”
I was just commenting on how all of sudden there’s this flood of pro-disney posts. Like someone stepped out of their disney fan site, googled the movie, and was horrified by the hostility towards the film. Went back to there site, threw up a link and then come the..
“THIS MOVIE IS GONNA ROCK!!! IT LOOKS SO FUNNY AND CUTE! GO CHIHUAHUA’S! I CAN’T WAIT FOR IT TO COME OUT. ALL YOU HATERS F*CK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The kind of people who freaked out when VMK was closed.
Look, before someone considers this post hateful toward people who prefer Disney over non-Disney, let me say that I believe there are many paths to salvation, and if some people that believe Disney is the right one, then huzzah for them.
And now I’ll finally say something about the movie. As a George Lopez fan, it’s lame to see hollywood always handing him parts like this. But, I’M GONNA SEE THE MOVIE, i’m sure my Chihuahua friend, Rocky, would be pissed if i didn’t plan on sneaking him in, which of course shouldn’t be too difficult.
July 9th, 2008 at 3:37 pm
oh great..
i feel stupid
July 10th, 2008 at 7:27 am
Lighten up, Rexstat! When I found this sight ; I was just trying to get my chihuahua freak on, not worship Disney. Didn’t realize that I was joining this prolific think tank. All this thinking makes me want to have a snack and a long nap. C’mon, it’s summer!
July 12th, 2008 at 8:26 am
I own a chihuahua and look forward to this movie!!!
July 12th, 2008 at 10:02 pm
I can’t wait to see this movie. My daughter, husband and I are going to see it. My chihuahua Odie is the best dog ever. I don’t know why so many people put chihuahuas down. If you owned one you would shut your mouths about them.
July 14th, 2008 at 8:43 am
Come on people, get over it! Looks like a cute movie that will be very upbeat and fun for the whole family! And coming from a chihuahua owner I can’t wait!
Ya’ll are giving that breed a bad rap. They are great dogs and seeing them on the big screen will be a riot!
July 16th, 2008 at 7:26 am
My two kids 5 and 2 years old. like the preview of this movie.
remember is a kids movie. and looks cain a cute
July 16th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
All the people excited to see this movie depress me. Disney completely ignores all of Latin America and when they finally decide to make a movie, they make all the characters dogs! They make a movie about Africa (Lion King) all the main characters are animals. Latin America, animals. I’m sorry but is that not insulting to anybody? They can only depict Africans and Latin Americans as animals, not as real people!! Its dehumanizing! This is a serious problem!
Oh but I’m sure its just all good fun and people shouldn’t worry so much about it. Yeah just stop thinking about it and Disney will continue to treat you like animals. Just roll over, its easier that way.
July 17th, 2008 at 11:47 am
Nobody is debating the fact that Chihuahuas aren’t “cute” and “cuddly”. The simple fact is that this movie seems to be is mind numbing. Of course this movie is made for kids and is meant to entertain them. But if you look at it closely it is also teaching kids. So you have to consider this, when taking your child to watch this movie what are your children learning. You learn that cartoons and movies teach your child more in two hours than you can teach then in two days. Whether we like to admit it or not we do get our information from tv and movies. Movies like this are like school and books to these kids. And yeah they are getting the short end of the stick.
July 19th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
Oh, for pity sake, quit your poor me whining. Considering that I love animals about a million times more than people; you should be flattered that this movie is about dogs instead of people; and besides, where did you get the idea that this movie is about Latin America. You make me want to scream STELLA!!!!!!!
July 19th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Stella, you depress me - lighten up sister!!!!!!!
July 20th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
OMG! IT IS A MOVIE FOR GOODNESS SAKES! YOU ALL JUST WANT SOMETHING TO BITCH ABOUT! GET OVER YOURSELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
