Animals have played important roles in movies for decades. There are some classics where you remember the pet as much as the rest of the cast. Some of them have inspired people around the world to name their pets after these animal stars, and you may have very well done the same at some point.
The most bizarre collection on a movie must be the weird and wonderful creature that featured in "Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events. Fish, cats, dogs and even snakes featured in this hit movie.
There are several classics that depend completely on their animal stars. We'll take a quick look at some of the best of them.
101 Dalmatians has been both a Disney cartoon and a life action movie. The main human is the wicked Cruella Deville who wants Dalmatian puppies to turn their coats in her coats. It's a great romp with Cruella getting her comeuppance in the end.
Famous film from decades ago was remade with Eddie Murphy taking the lead role of Dr Doolittle. He can talk to animals and understand what they are saying, which all lead him into a series of situations. Two sequels followed.
A lot of animals in movies have been partners, or side kicks. We all remember Jim Carrey in the mask, and we also remember his little dog Milo, who was also a hero.
Way back in 1939, everyone wanted a little dog just like Toto. He never left Dorothy's side as she went through her great adventures in Oz, and was there when she returned to Kansas.
Computer generated imagery has made animals seem lifelike and has added to the fun. What make it better is that the movie superstars are queuing up to give these cartoon wonders a voice.
