There are only three certainties in life: death and taxes and Disney will remake "The Shaggy Dog" again. By my count, here comes the fifth version since Walt's original hit, starring Fred MacMurray in 1959. In that film, a boy (Tommy Kirk) is transformed into a sheepdog via an ancient spell. In the enlightened era of 2006, a busy businessman (Tim Allen), who has little time for his family, succumbs to a top secret serum, becoming a sheepdog and, along the way, a better father. I hope they put fresh newspapers under your movie theatre.
At Walt Disney Pictures' official film site, see the coming attractions movie trailer and the Super Bowl's TV version with Chris Berman, plus a photo gallery. More "Shaggy Dog" bones should be tossed our way once the studio digs up the backyard.
