Doogal: a sad story of Unnecessary Localization
Фильм және анимация
A review of the infamous Doogal film, and how the American dub killed any chances of the Magic Roundabout being well recieved.
Please don't block this again Pathe. The original was actually a little entertaining.

I’m American, but I’ve actually took some time and I watched the British version of Doogal. And it’s 10 times better than the US version.

A feature length documentary could probably be made on all the animated films that tried to ride the Shrek wave. Like Hoodwinked, Hoodwinked 2, Happily N’ ver After and Donkey X to name a few.

Hoodwinked tried to stay as far away from Shrek’s humor as possible so as to keep the twist on the Little Red Riding Hood original. The film was seen as a clever and hilarious crime twist on the Little Red Riding Hood. This was done by giving the classic characters a twist by making the wolf an investigative reporter, the woodsman an aspiring actor for a foot cream, and granny into an adrenaline junkie who does extreme sports. Little Red Riding Hood was also named Red.

The US dub was actually the final animated film that Jon Stewart was in. I guess he felt it wasn't worth it after this.

I don’t blame Stewart. He sounded like he was just phoning it in.
This film is first computer animated film to receive a generally unfavorable ranking on metacritic.(23 out of 100).
While not a film per say, the failed Groovenians pilot could worth a second look. Apparently, from what I've heard, Warner Bros wanted nothing to do with this so much, that they dumped in the public domain.

Somehow as in american I ended up with the British version of doogal for my kids. We saw the American version on Netflix and everyone was confused and disgusted. Its just so wrong. They took a cute kids movie and turned it into pure crap.
2:31-2:32 but what about Chicken Little, Wallace & Gromit, Hoodwinked, and Corpse Bride??
Dylan being voiced by bill nighy and jimmy fallon was probably the most hilarious casting choice I ever heard. 🤣

Sad story
I have actually a suggestion for an animated film for you to review on "Doomed to Fail" - it's from 2008 and is called Delgo. I haven't seen it for around ten years but what others such as Saberspark did say it is very bad - the plot is build entirely from fantasy cliches and tropes and animation was ugly even for late 2000s standards. And that movie had fascinating production history that spanned almost ten years, was fueled by its directors' will to make animated feature outisde Hollywood, killed two of its voice actors and as mentioned this didn't pay off as Delgo received awful reviews, became one of biggest box office bombs ever, breaking record for worst opening weekend for a wide release in American history (currently it's, IDK, second?) and the movie itself was quickly forgotten and fell into obscurity. Sounds like a good material to review? I can actually provide some bizzare sources.

Cartoon Saloon's films are much better than this movie.
To be brutally honest I don't mind the dub for having so bad its good levels of cringe comedy at least its not something so boring and average no one remembers. Perhaps because the source material was so terribl they decided to make the whole movie a shitpost.
The actors in the U.S. dub sound so bored.
Even 4kids dubs are better than this dub!

Another film, the thief and the cobbler, was also ruined by Harvey weinstein hard. Thank god Harvey weinstein lost everything he had back in 2017
