Doggy Five is alive.

It seems kind of weird actually to make your robot dog that intelligent but be so committed to the bit that you don’t just give it full speech capabilities.

What’s odd is how little it felt like actually happened in this movie.  E.T. only has 17 more minutes of runtime; but just in terms of how many different things seem to happen, it feels like a much larger difference than that.

I was internally labeling all the characters with their equivalents from Short Circuit and E.T. as they were introduced.
