Default Beverly Hills Chihuahua - Annoying or Adorable?

I'm not a dog-hater. But I just found this extremely annoying. What do you think?

When will this madness end?

Two thoughts occurred to me:

1. Some Disney executive enthusiastically green-lit this thing.
2. Every time Disney knocks out a cute animal movie, thousands of people rush out to get real live versions of those same cute animals... Which mostly end up being neglected/abused/killed.

I am a huge dog lover myself (my dogs are ridiculously spoiled)... but I will say that when I saw the ad for this movie I just rolled my eyes. Enough already. I have no tolerance for the 'Air Bud' movies or half the other crap animal movies they churn out any more. It reaches a point where it's insulting to the consumers intelligence.

(Now watch me end up liking this movie after saying all that).

I know what you mean... I have a buddy that owns and runs an aquarium store...
He told me his salt water aquariums and clown fish sells went up 4 fold after the
"Finding Nemo" movie... And I can imagine the Dalmatian sells after the "A 101 Dalmatians" movie...
I like dogs, but not small dogs and especially not Chihuahuas... I hate those little ankle sharks...

Nice camera work is probably all i can say as a positive about these movies.. Insulting to the consumers intelligence is best stated above.

Aww. CC, see how good you two look together!

It would be hilarious though to see that many chihuahuas running after a cat.

The animal sales after these types of movies are indeed awful. They need to make more movies with mongrel/mutts in them instead, lol. I can't say I plan on going to see this one either.

Another dopey animal film by Disney, the chinging of cash registers, a new blockbuster hit, and Disney executives making paper airplanes out of $100 dollar bills in the boardroom.

Disney always made animal films, and some were actually quite good.

These days though? I wouldn't be surprised if they are cranking them out of some automated factory.
