James Gunn is a dog guy, but a very self aware dog guy. He knows they can be real bastards from time to time.

He based Krypto off a rescue he got just before taking this on

I thought I read the Krypto in this movie WAS a rescue?

He's full CGI lol

Misread that when I first saw the announcement, my bad.

But thanks for the condescending "lol" at the end. :)

The number of times my dog has used my testicles as a launch pad because someone walked past my house is going to be the reason i dont have kids.

Legitimately just happened while reading this thread.... My neighbor got a pizza delivered and my pup had thoughts that he wanted to share about it.

A couple days ago my 30 kg dog who still thinks she's a puppy jumped up onto my lap when I was lying on the couch. One of her paws landed directly in my crotch.

I'm glad I already have a daughter (who found the whole thing hilarious by the way) otherwise I don't think I'd be having any more kids.

my vizsla has testicle seeking rear paws, I swear she goes out of her way to stomp on them

still love that lady (here she is in her safe place after hearing fireworks, she did not want to go on a walk)

Pets know where your balls are. My 11lb cat manages to put two tons of pressure into his paws when he stands on my lap

u/avalnation6988 1d ago

Wait… is it your DECISION to not have kids or are you not having kids because your dog smashed your testicles too many times? 😂

Currently raising a four month old coonhound/cattle dog that was found living in the woods with his mom and litter. “Real bastard” is a mild version of this little devil.

He’s also very much a Weasel guy

u/patrickwithtraffic 2d ago

Nah, that’s his brother

u/boywoods 2d ago

Then why not you know, use an actual dog for at least some of those shots?

u/bob1689321 2d ago

Because then the difference between the real dog and the CGI dog will be very noticeable. It's better to be consistent imo

Not every dog can be the dog from The Thing. Most aren't good actors.

det er ikke en hund! det er en slags ting!

u/pauloh1998 2d ago

Why bother? It would be way weirder if the dog got replaced every 2 seconds by a CG dog

u/elizabnthe 2d ago

Not really? Plenty of movies have done it and it's not often on anyone's list of complaints. It's mostly done pretty well.

u/TheDeadlySinner 2d ago

Which movies have superpowered dogs?

u/elizabnthe 2d ago

Ahh literally Gunn's own Guardians of the Galaxy.

u/StrokyBoi 1d ago

You do know that that dog was fully CGI too, right?
