Trivia
Director Rob Minkoff chose Ty Burrell for Mr. Peabody because "his voice embodied all the different aspects of the character today - not just the intellect and the suave personality, but the underlying warmth as well."

Goofs
Agamemnon dubs Sherman as "Shermanus," which sounds more Latin than Greek.

Quotes
Penny Peterson: I'm not Penny anymore. Now, I'm Princess Hatsheput, precious flower of the Nile.
Mr. Peabody: "Precious," perhaps, but if you think we're going to leave you here, you are most definitely in "de-Nile."
Sherman: [laughs] I don't get it.

Crazy credits
The DreamWorks Animation logo has Sherman fishing in the moon.

Alternate versions
The closing credits in the UK version feature a song entitled 'Kid', written and performed by Peter Andre.

Dreamworks' latest animation about a time-travelling dog and his adopted son - how could you resist?

So I went to see this with not much expectation at all, the one trailer I had seen didn't really grab me but I decided to see it anyway and was pleasantly surprised. Mr. Peabody is this extremely intelligent dog who can talk and his adopted son Sherman is a 7-year-old boy who is a sponge for facts but quite slow practically. They go on adventures through time to learn about history. The movie sets that up in the first 15 minutes, which by the way it was done it looked like the movie was going to be some kids documentary about history but when it actually got into the story it was really fun. The comedy made me laugh, the visuals are stunning, I wish I could've seen it in 3D, the story is quite unique but also had similar elements of other movies, I got a Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure vibe and you get some pretty generic characters that you've seen in quite a lot of animated movies but the plot was't boring; I was interested to the end. The voice acting is pretty average but the way Mr. Peabody says things do add a certain something to the film. 8 out of 10.
