Ok,we all know (most anyway) in WOC,the only reason theres a race is to keep the dogs jobs open.

But think-What if the plane broke down in White Mountion?

A team of dogs would never brake down.

What if Duke couldn't get all the ice off his wings?

He wouldn't be able to fly back to Nome.

What if Duke forgot his ice scraper?

Again,no flying back to Nome.

What if the plane crashed?

All these sum up going dog sledding would be safer,and quicker at points.

Now the dogs:

Its fun for them,its giving them excersise,AND its something for them to do.

Planes on the other hand,just polute the earth.

Well,I just wanted to point those out.

Thanks!

Very true, and good

That's true. Trouble is, everybody's a slave to efficiency these days. That's where you get all these "Techno" and "Robo-chi" pets. I'll admit the dinos are kinda neat, but they can't replace the real deal.

Good point. now, if only Duke and the people of Nome had thought of that

Very true. But if the race beetween the plane and the dogs hadn't hapopened, the movie would have been kinda boring. But very true.

It's very true, but the writers probably couldn't think of another plot so they blocked all of these reasons for the dogs to keep their jobs.

I agree! Great article!

all that stuff is true, but the movie had to have a main problem in it, all great movies/stories do.

Juneau, September 05, 2007 at 19: 47 Member

warriorcat*ndog is right; what would all of the characters do if there was no problem?

"Very true. But if the race beetween the plane and the dogs hadn't hapopened, the movie would have been kinda boring. But very true." The movie was unbearably boring anyway, LOL. Anyway, the thing was that the plane was FAST. The dogs were slower, as they had to weave around mountains and such, while the plane could sail over. The race was triggered by the occurence in the beginning of the movie, where the dogs were late. Besides, you say that a team of dogs can't break down. Actually, they can. Tiredness, injury - not to mention the pit stops every dog needs to take once in a while. Don't get me wrong, I adore dogs in every way, but mail service isn't a game. As a final note, why were the dogs so fussed about their jobs? They're DOGS, for heavens' sake! If they really wanted to sled, being unemployed won't stop them. They can sled even if they didn't deliver mail.

I like your article! Planes do polute the air!

But you can't effectively use a dog sled year-round. That is, unless some engineering genius outfits one with all-terrain tires that give it adequate ground clearance.
