Apparently August will see the release of a new Benji movie. "Benji Returns: Rags to Riches" is the name. It's only been, what? 25 years since the first?

I'm so totally sure that's the same Benji.

C'mon... a little fishing line, a skilled puppeteer, and a snow blower hooked up to force air through the vocal cords for that ever-so-cute "wurf" that he makes when he gets all perturbed? This is gonna be GREAT! I see MERCHANDISING OPPORTUNITIES! Burgerking Collector's Glasses - COLLECT ALL 8! A cute sceene from the movie on the front, and on the back "Benji's defiled and rotting (yet life-likely animated) corpse saves the realistically CGI rendered birds nest from the evil Logging Industry".

Gold, baby... solid GOLD!

Oh dear.

Anything that IMDB shows as having "Benji Returns: The Promise of Christmas (2002)" as a working title, and still hasn't been released...

Is this the long-awaited sequel to "Oh Heavenly Dog?" Be still, my beating heart!

It's amazing what they can do with CGI these days.

I checked IMDB. They're calling it Benji: Off the Leash! It's written and directect by Joe Camp, who did the first movie, and he has someone in it playing himself. How exciting.

Are you SURE that isn't one of the DVDs you're supposed to review??

Benji is now played by C.H.O.M.P.S.!

Better than being played by C.H.U.Ds, I guess.
