If you thought ‘Buddy’ was just another feel‑good family flick, think again. The movie burst onto the scene like a rogue squirrel at a picnic, clawing its way to the No. 6 box‑office spot and shattering the record for the highest‑grossing roadside attraction ever. Saban’s Specialty Box Office, known for its niche releases, is now scrambling to keep up. “We didn’t expect a dog‑driven drama to out‑earn a superhero sequel,” said a stunned Saban exec, clutching a stack of charts like a lifeline. Critics are calling it “the cinematic equivalent of a surprise fireworks show at a funeral,” while fans are lining up at gas stations nationwide, popcorn in hand, to catch the canine chaos that’s apparently more addictive than any blockbuster. Buddy’s secret? A cameo by a celebrity hamster and a plot twist that involves a literal bone‑headed villain.
You do it, we report it.
