As it turns out, Garfield is brilliant

[lazyfatbum]

He's actually saying the world is on fire, but then he says "run" which is hilarious. If he was psychotic and in a Jacob's Ladder situation he'd probably be thin, at a vet and and with Odie and Jon crying in the hallway. Of course Odie probably never existed and was only formed in the imagination of Garfield as his own avatar of innocense that he destroyed in his bitterness through the years because he accepted his lack of a life (while Jon constantly fights its reality).

imo the camera getting closer should have eventually become the pure white of his eye with just the word "run" firmly in the middle as if he's saying the physical world is destroying itself, find protection in your mind.

Dude Garfield is deep.
