Las Fantasías Felinas de Garfield

I have always been a fan of the comic strips watched Garfield and Friends to death when I was younger. Have only seen two of the features though. This and 'Here Comes Garfield'. 'Garfield's Feline Fantasies' is fantastic. Garfield is often finding himself in a fantasy world in this feature and can't stop slipping out of reality into different fantasy situations. He dreams of being captain of a submarine, imagines he's having a western showdown with Odie, imagines he a magician, then an airline pilot and best of all becomes his alter ego Lance Sterling. Lance Sterling is like a cross between James Bond and Indiana Jones and is on a quest to find 'The Banana of Bombay' and prevent the end of humour (with the help of Odie/Slobber Job). Great stuff! - 9/10

Garfield's Feline Fantasies is 30 minutes of hilarity, full of clever parodies and classic garfield humor, any fan of garfield, or fan of laughter will find Garfield's Feline Fantasies a comedy that delivers laughter and old school garfield goodness.

Garfield couldn't help but picture himself in a parody of fantasies. Soon he got so carried away the fantasies ended up being more like reality.

He and Oddie both experience themselves as westerns and as pilots. They keep falling off tables and cupboards when the fantasies got too carried away in danger in all.

Jon Arbuckle get confused on why they're acting like this.

Garfield gets over excited as he and Odie find themselves invincible that fantasies can't at all hurt them.

So he decides to go into a Humphrey Bogart like fantasy as Lance Sterling an archaeologist agent. Who's been assigned to find the original banana that inspired the banana peel slip gag. If it gets into the wrong hands, comedy will be at ease. So he and Odie must retrieve before the villains do.

This one is very funny with some parodies and jokes from other movies. The animation is well done and Frank Welker does an excellent job on the voice acting in this one.

There have been things loved as a child watched much later, and the question "what made me like this when younger?" crops up in my mind. That is not the case at all with Garfield, 'Garfield and Friends' and his special. If anything they are even better now, coming from a young adult but, as pathetic as this sounds, who is a child at heart. Will always like Garfield, he is a very funny and lovable character.

Of the specials, 'Garfield's Feline Fantasies' is one of my personal favourites and all of them are good and more in their own way. The others being 'A Garfield Christmas Special' and 'Garfield in Disguise', both among the best films/specials for Christmas and Halloween. For me, it is one of the funniest Garfield specials and also one of the most imaginative. What could have been easily tired, considering it's not the most original of premises, turned out actually to be something that was so entertaining, inventive and clever and fairly different for Garfield.

So many great merits with 'Garfield's Feline Fantasies' and actually cannot think of anything to criticise it for. The animation is still as colourful as remembered with the smooth drawing, far from sparse backgrounds and attention to detail holding up really well. The music also is extremely catchy.

Entertainment value, as to be expected, is non-stop, with more hilarious gags than one can count and the wry and witty writing shines like the brightest of stars. Of the specials, 'Garfield's Feline Fantasies' is one of the funniest, second only to 'Garfield in Disguise'. Also always have loved the rousing action, the clever and hilarious parodies and the imaginative fantasy touches embedded throughout. The standout agreed being when Garfield imagines his alter ego Lance Sterling. At the same time, the charm and heart is also here while not being sentimental.

Garfield is as hilarious and lovable as ever and can never get enough of Odie, who is so cute without being overly so, his chemistry with Garfield very endearing. They are especially entertaining in the western showdown fantasy. The supporting characters are fun, but Odie and especially Garfield are the stars here. Voice acting is on point, nobody portrayed Garfield better than Lorenzo Music and the others were not even close.

Concluding, fabulous and one of Garfield's best. This is an example of what Garfield is all about and a perfect example of why he has so much appeal. 10/10

In this Garfield TV Special, the fat cat is once again using his wild imagination as he plays with Odie. This time he's an adventurer called Lance Sterling who is after a mysterious artifact, that holds the key to all laughter, called the Banana of Bombay. Why a banana so-called would be hidden in a booby-trapped temple in the Andes is anyone's guess. But hey, it's only a fantasy.

While not as strong as Garfield's Babes and Bullets, Feline Fantasies does have a more adventurous feel and an easier set-up for jokes. Plus it doesn't go into black and white (apart from the end) so any kids hooked on colors won't mind it if they were put off by the film noir monochrome of Babes and Bullets. But you shouldn't teach your kids to be philistines anyway.
