The movie trailer from Eight Below! 

Eight Below Trailer

Inspired by a true story, EIGHT BELOW is an exciting action-adventure about loyalty and the bonds of friendship set in the extreme wilderness of Antarctica. The film tells the story of three members of a scientific expedition: Jerry Shepard (PAUL WALKER), his best friend, Cooper (JASON BIGGS), and a rugged American geologist (BRUCE GREENWOOD), who are forced to leave behind their team of beloved sled dogs due to a sudden accident and perilous weather conditions in Antarctica. During the harsh, Antarctic winter, the dogs must struggle for survival alone in the intense frozen wilderness for over 6 months. The film is inspired by the events of a 1957 Japanese Antarctic Expedition, which served as the basis for the blockbuster Japanese film, "Nankyoku Monogatari" ("Antarctica"). --© Walt Disney Pictures

Scenes from Fluke! 

Fluke (the dog movie) - To Be By Your Side

Fluke, best dog movie in the world, with the song To Be By Your Side, by Nick Cave. This song seems made for Fluke instead of Winged Migration:) It tells of Fluke's determination to find his family at any cost and through any obstacle, though in the end he knows he cannot stay . . . Tonight I will be by your side, but tomorrow I will fly . . . Fluke was played by a Golden Retriever named Comet. His hair was cut and his coat dyed for the part: In the book, by James Herbert, Fluke is a black mutt. This is one of the only films I've ever seen where the movie is better than the book. If you want to see Comet with his natural coat he also stars in the film My Magic Dog. People are Nancy Travis, Max Pomeranc, Matthew Modine, and Eric Stoltz. Enjoy! Please comment!

Give me some woofs! 

GoodInfo

Hmm.. I wonder if a cost of living and dollar value adjustment were made for each movie's release date, the "top ten" would reflect a far different picture! I suspect that then you would find the 1942 Lassie, and the early Rin Tim Tin features (which didn't even make the list) very solidly at the top. Some good movies here nonetheless, and a well presented lens! Five Stars!
