Garfield

This, as well as a number of th eposts that follow, were all seen while riding the bus from Calgary to Winnipeg. I was actually quite plesantly surprised by this one. Bill Murray brings just the right character to Garfield to make him enjoyably self-centered without becoming irrtatingly smug. One of the other things that I enjoyed was that the relationship between Jon and Liz is completely different from the comics. Jon is not a worthless loser, just a guy who's a little shy to ask a girl out, and Liz actually likes him too. The romance is a far better relationship to watch for two hours than watching Jon get shut down every pass. The over-all story isn't that orriginal, but it carries through.
