5608: Pooky Saw a Bad Movie
| Pooky Saw a Bad Movie |
 Made by: Trevor |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
This strip involves Garfield attempting to cheer up Pooky by showing it a movie (the author's notes imply it to be the 2022 Disney+ live-action adaptation of Pinocchio), only for Garfield's cheer to be drained afterward (hinting said author's notes, as well as not bothering to complete the film's running time within the strip proper, to be a jab at said Pinocchio film; the runtime is 105 minutes, or 1 hour 45 minutes); it is unknown why the marker from the original Garfield strip (originally used to physically draw a smile onto Pooky's face) was retained, as it is no longer used within the narrative.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Fifty clams says he saw the Pinocchio remake.
Original strip: 2010-05-05.
