. He brings so much authenticity to Charlie that it feels like you're actually hanging out with a lovable dog, not just watching an animated film 
. And can we talk about how cool it is that he drew inspiration from his own dog Garcia? It's clear he loves animals and wants to spread that love to the audience 
. The chemistry between Owen and Dawson Littman is also super adorable – I'm shipping Danny and Charlie hard 
. Overall, 'Charlie the Wonderdog' is a feel-good film that's perfect for families or just anyone looking for a fun, lighthearted watch 
.
. What I think really sets this movie apart is the way it balances action-packed sequences with heartwarming moments - it's just so well done! 
The film itself is probably fine, I guess. More animated stuff for kids and their parents, another way to distract us from the state of our online platforms... 
the animation is on point too, can't wait to see it in theaters with my squad 
, I'm really loving the new trailer for 'Charlie the Wonderdog'! 
I've always been a fan of Owen Wilson's work, and it sounds like he brings his A-game to this animated superhero film. The fact that he drew inspiration from his own dog, Garcia, makes me think he's not just voicing a character - he's living it 
. One thing that comes to mind is how this movie reminds me of 'Bolt' (2008) - both have lovable dogs as the main characters 
"it's always sorta the same goal" wth? can't they just be honest for once? we all know acting in a live action movie is way harder than voicing a cartoon character 
also, what's with the "he drew inspiration from his own experiences with Garcia" thing? is this really a compelling reason for me to watch the movie? 
. Can't wait to see how Charlie navigates being a superhero while still being true to himself 
He seems super relatable with his love for animals & how he incorporates that into the character 
!
. Can't wait to check it out myself! 
. What's so cool about it is how he brings that genuine enthusiasm and love for dogs into the role - like, you can literally smell his dog owner vibes coming through on screen 
It's pretty cool that Owen Wilson got to voice the main character and brought his love for dogs into it. I've had my own pup, Garcia, since I was like 10 
) rather than just a cartoon character. The animation style seems pretty cool too 
- it reminds me of some of those old-school cartoons I used to watch as a kid 
.
) - Owen Wilson's voice acting is like the icing on the cake 
!
but I gotta say, Owen Wilson's voice acting skills are straight fire 
like how he can bring warmth and authenticity to Danny too
