I mentioned above that A Dog’s Way Home is also a remake, because the theme of ‘pet crossing the country to get home’ has already been told a few times on the big screen. There’s one section with veteran actor Edward James Olmos that’s so upsetting I’m shocked A Dog’s Way Home doesn’t come with a disclaimer. So I’m a little surprised a follow-up got greenlit, and that the writer returned to the death-theme well once again.
#A dogs purpose dogs movie
“PETA is calling on kind people to boycott this film and send the message that animals should be treated humanely, not exploited as movie props.” That kind of terrifying real-life event can go on to sink a franchise, and the new movie will probably remind everyone of Peta’s Purpose movie boycott action: “No amount of spin from Hollywood will change the fact that being forced to do a terrifying stunt is not a dog’s purpose,” said PETA Senior Vice President Lisa Lange in a statement.
One thing you might recall from A Dog’s Purpose is how the titular dog, in one of his lives, has a swim rescue scene where the actual canine actor almost drowned. I don’t want to spoil any plots, but some freaky things happen in both Home and Purpose that make me wonder what the writer intends for the final film in his doggie-verse. Life, death, and life again are repeating motifs in what on the surface would seem to be harmless family films. Another thing that stands out is how morbid both stories are.
