[edit] NPOV ??

I think "a very loose remake" is a little bit hard, i found it great... So maybe this hurts the NPOV because if that isn't opionion of all people it is subjective and therefore not neutral (objective).

Do what you want with the article, i don't really care (i more often use German Wikipedia). This only as an advise.

Eh, well, it is loosely based. The only simularity is that a person changed into a dog. In the remake, it is a lawyer through interaction with a dog, and in the original it was a boy and it was caused by an ancient artifact. Saying "very loosely based" doesnt make the remake bad, it only means that it isnt all that similar to the original. -- Hellmark 08:46, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

I tried to add that Tim Allen did all of the morphing and there were no special effects used, but noooooo, somebody had to go and delete that. Check the facts people. This is a documentary, duh. God.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Shaggy dog.jpg

Image:Shaggy dog.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
