Fun Stuff

Trivia:
C.H.O.M.P.S. was originally released with a 'G' rating despite the single occurance of the word "shit", which, incidentally is the final word spoken in the film. This could be considered an error made by the M.P.A.A.'s classification board. This oversight has since been corrected as the current MGM DVD carries a PG rating. more

Benji, but with a beat, 30 July 2003
2/10
Author: JZvezda

For a scientifically-engineered super-dog that was supposed to be the answer to petit crime, CHOMPS was a chump.

All I ever saw Chomps do was sit, or walk, or run. Or run, then walk, then sit... and then get back up again and stretch, and then walk, and then jog to K-Tel dance hits. And sometimes it had all the answers to the daily Jumbo. But mostly it just sat a lot.

All I am saying is: In a Celebrity Death Match, Chomps couldn't take out Mr. Bigglesworth.
