mydiamond Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Fun random fact: did you know that one of the dog actors in eight below also plays in snow dogs? the dog's real name is DJ, here in eight below he plays as Max the one that leads the humans to Maya <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PnkFlyd204 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 My boys Viggo and Tika are related to two of the Huskies that starred in this movie. Their mother Duchess is grandaughter of the siberian who played "Truman" in the movie Eight Below and the niece of "Shorty" in the movie. Kind of neat. Of course though, neither of my boys could ever be a movie star. They don't listen well enough, LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 iron will ? In 1917, Will Stoneman's (Mackenzie Astin) father is killed in a mushing accident leaving Will to care for his family. Needing money for college and to save the family farm in South Dakota, Will decides to travel to Winnipeg, Manitoba to take part in a dog-sled race from Winnipeg to Saint Paul,Minnesota. With the aid of Ned Dodd (August Schellenberg), the young man prepares both physically and mentally for the harsh weather and terrain throughout the race. During the race, Will becomes popular with the newspaper media as reporter Harry Kingsley (Kevin Spacey) tells about Will's strong courage in what he must do.

mydiamond Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I sometimes wonder how do they make these dogs respond to their character's name... O_O do they temporarily rename them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydiamond Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 AHA! Wiki says that Maya and one other dog belongs to one of the actress x) *whispers* no wonder she got the place as main actor but gotta admit Maya is amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I sometimes wonder how do they make these dogs respond to their character's name... O_O do they temporarily rename them? they probably record it and say their real names , then re-record n call them theirt 'actor name' and layer the footage so it looks like the dogs are responding to their actor name i dunno tho , its just a guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicTurtle Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Oh I love Iron Will too. So much happier than 8 Below. Its funny how the evil sled team is all woolies though. That always makes me laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
