Cats is a musical that’s not meant to be an engaging story, it’s meant to be a spectacle show. Spectacle shows don’t make good movies. What a waste of resources.
Yeah. I think they were trying to jump on the realistic CGI train with Disney because Disney was making big bucks off nostalgia even if the remakes sucked.
@@Soroboruo The director is the same guy that made Les Miserables 2012, a famous adaptation of a famous musical. The problem here is that, instead of working alongside the guys that made it like he did with Les Miserables, he choose to do it by himself, using a newly invented technology that wasn't even tested instead of costumes and motion capture, and overworked the animators and even mistreated them repeatedly because he had no idea how animation works
Cats is not a musical with a story so it’s a bad candidate for a movie. You don’t go see it for that, you see it for the amazing acrobatics and singing and character of it.
Isnt the movie like a recreation of the songs but with more effects and visuals? Like "cats would look like this if the stage could be changed for every song" or whatever
@@PalitoSelvatico honestly if they had just opted for costumes instead of terrifying CGI, the movie probably would've looked great. I've never seen the musical in person so I don't know how it compares, but the dance sequences were pretty good and we're actually fun to watch once you got over the horrific skin suits.
Cats never had a concrete plot because it took a firm backseat to the visual and musical experience. “A bunch of cats introduce themselves and each other, have what’s strongly implied to be an orgy, then choose a sacrifice” works great as a concept for a stage musical with little to no unsung dialogue because you’re too busy watching the choreography to care about the story, not so much for a Hollywood movie.
Based on poems from a book, the cats present themselves and tell their story and remember the past, hoping to be chosen to be reborn at the end of the night. There you go not that hard.
as a fan of the CATS stage musical...i am actually disapointed they DIDNT add a better plot to this movie adaptation! i would have liked a huge change for once considering the source material, but this one time hollywood didnt make any major changes....it's baffling!
@@guppti-tamberooly-jooortel1422 the fact the only change they made was macavity kidnapping lots of cats and not just old Deuteronomy AND the fact macavity wants to be chosen to be reborn for no reason....ugh no thanks
There were a few changes I didn't like. They did the Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer weird and I feel like some relationships people liked in the stage show weren't present there.
@@byakuyatogami2905 See I thought mungojerrie and rumpleteaser were done one of the best, but that's just cause I'm a huge fan of the original version. However your right that most of the relationships were absent. They didn't really feel like a communiny in a way.
Also, this movie was originally gonna be animated, and seeing the concept art, it looked like it would've been a true visual spectacle--which is what CATS is, it's a spectacle--but no, Skinwalker abominations is a way better idea
Hell doesn't exist, because heaven doesn't exist... because does not exist! How I do know this? Bwcause If God exist then explain how He allow this movie to be made...
I'm not even phased by the designs in the movie, my nightmares are far more bizarre and far more terrifying, too bad I can't remember any of them when I wake up, I only remember they were bad.
Making a CATS movie is about like trying to find a plot in cirque de soleil. You can’t. It’s all about the spectacle, and this time the spectacle is hell and screaming and nightmares and death
Fun Fact: the movie is unfinished. No... Not kidding; Tom Hooper (director) admitted to being done with the film THE MORNING OF THE PREMIER! Also, those human hands aren't supposed to be there, they're supposed to be paws. A new version of the film is being made and sent to theatres right now.
Just let it die. I don’t want to see CATS again nor hear it. I swear last week all the posters just had CATS on it. Luckily a trailer wasn’t shown on the screen
As someone who was a fan of the poetry the musical is based on before I ever saw the musical... Cats is a fantastically goofy experience that maybe should have taken the poems less literally. It's kind of like making a musical based on Leaves of Grass.
I watched it with the patch and..... it's still incredibly bad. Dench's hands are still there, wedding ring and all. All of it still looks like a bad Snapchat filter.
@@sansdr.philpillow9347 pretty much. Only difference is sonic wasn't released yet so they took the time to fix it before showing it. Thats what justified sonic's changes
still bummed that the 2d version with art direction from the kung fu panda animator got scrapped. i don’t like cats but the concept art was really beautiful and if it had pretty animation it could make up for being nothing.
Honestly, from the concept art, that could have made a killer short film. CATS is like Fanatsia. It's meant to be a visual and auditory spectacle. A short film made from that original 2D art would be amazing. Or, they did the soundtrack of CATS except each song was a cover, and it's all animated in that original 2D style. That'd be really neat. Like a series of short animated songs.
Listening to this without having seen the movie or the musical feels like listening to your two stoned roommates making up a story about some stray cats they saw in an ally
I do like Cats, but probably because I see it as just a dance performance set with a cat theme rather than a _play._ it would have worked better if it was an animated adaptation, then it would have at least had a more Fantasia feel
"I can't think of anything that conceptually is worse of an idea than making a movie about cats." I see that someone is suppressing the memories of the Emoji Movie...
How dare you make fun of the cinematic masterpiece that is shark tale. Every performance in that film could be compared to looking into God himself. Every scene in this movie is a small masterpiece With its own fantastic little details and ideas. The movies message about being a fish is beyond most people's comprehension I would saw off my two legs if it meant that shark tale got the recegnition that it deserves. The character design is so good, so unbelievably immaculate, I cried for two hours straight, out of pure happiness after I first saw how that one will Smith fish looked like. I cannot for the life of me come up with one single reason why the godfather is viewed as one of the best movies off all time but this movie isn't. Sharks tale of fucking unbelievable.
@@nickv.3573 The emoji movie was extremely boring and unfunny dont give it more credit than it deserves it wasn't even so bad it was good it was just a boring movie length advertisment
"i cant think of any musical thats less fitting to be made into a movie than cats" Wait till you hear about andrew lloyd webbers musical about thomas the tank engine
I almost feel bad for all the actors bc there's no way they could've known the cgi would come out so terrifyingly. But also, they decided to be in film adaptation of one of the worst musicals ever, so
Wicked would be absolutely gorgeous honestly. I'd also like to see a possible adaptation for phantom of the opera. Because So far its only got one from a very long time ago and it's severely underappreciated. If it had another adaptation that added to it and perfected it even more, it would bring both to the spotlight for general audiences.
@@Its_Asteria I completely agree with this! I didn't know that Wicked was replaced by this, and I have no clue what went the director's minds when they made that decision. Also yessss, Phantom of the Opera!
even the fans of the 1998 movie version got screwed over. the life got sucked out of most of the songs and they really messed up mungojerrie and rumpleteazer. this should never have been made into a movie, it's a sensation made for the stage meant to be experienced live
Now im just imagining that spongebob scene, where gary, spongebob, and squidward are snails and meowing. So patrick just throws a boot at one of them lol
I didn’t watch the movie before watching this because I literally did not give a crap about the plot. Hearing them talk about all of these random scenes strung together is probably a good representation of what the movie would actually be like if I watched it.
@@doubledamn2599 No it's an old Schaff joke and when people point out physical similarities it bothers me so I respond with that Like yesterday someone said Thomas Sanders looks like Elon Musk and he does and that's not good so I replied with that
After watching this I had to watch Chicago to remember that I like musicals, and then listen to the original broadway Cats album to remember that I do, in fact, like Cats
The thing that hurts most for me is that Cats was a _huuuge_ part of my childhood, I used to act out every song in my bedroom and pretend I was in the musical, I knew every single word and constantly obsessed over going to see it in person cause I had only ever heard the cast recording. Last year my best friend took me to see it and I literally fucking cried. At intermission, a bunch of people (about 1/4 of the entire audience in fact) just left the theater because they didn't like it, and I was so confused?? And my friend explained that a lot of people really disliked the musical because it has no plot and is basically just a crazy spectacle... which I totally understand, but that was actually the main reason I love it so much. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion of course, but this movie is making people bring up how much they hate the original musical and it kinda hurts. If it was a good movie I could maybe forgive it, but the fact that they butchered the musical so badly just adds insult to injury for me. Sad boi hours.
I see your Putnam County Spelling Bee and raise you one Starlight Express and one The Trail to Oregon to spice it up a bit. At an absolute push you could make Putnam work by tweaking a few things to make it a character-driven story about a seemingly normal competition from the exaggerated perspective of the children, going extra bizarre visually for the songs/fantasy sequences (that's if you were absolutely forced to mind, it would probably still fall flat on its face), Trail to Oregon loses a big chunk of the comedy the minute it isn't interactive and Starlight Express would literally just end up being as weird as Cats but with anthro trains doing roller-skating stunts that lose most of the impact when they aren't performed live.

oh man, nvm, the movie's getting postponed because of corona, but hopefully we'll get it someday lmao
Hooper: I gave Mr. Mistopholese an arc!
Audience: You ruined a perfectly good cat is what you did. Look at it! It has anxiety!
I didn’t watch the movie before watching this because I literally did not give a crap about the plot. Hearing them talk about all of these random scenes strung together is probably a good representation of what the movie would actually be like if I watched it.
James: I don't like most Andrew Loyd Webber musicals...
Me: *sweats nervously*
James: besides Jesus Christ Super Star.
Me: JeeeSSUUSSSSS!!!
Kari B WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Everyone knew this movie would be a cat-astrophe
Guys these jokes are purrfect
This movie was very FURRocious in a bad way
Hey, I've got one. The movie's about cats.
yeah you gotta be kitten me
You're making me think of that King of the Hill episode where Hank took care of someone's cat and Dale kept making fun of him.
Huh, I've never seen Schaffrillas' face before this. He looks kinda like the guy that plays Moriarty in Sherlock.
You'll never eat lunch in this town again
@@asharmstrong248 Was that from the show? I kinda fell out of interest after season 2.
@@doubledamn2599 No it's an old Schaff joke and when people point out physical similarities it bothers me so I respond with that
Like yesterday someone said Thomas Sanders looks like Elon Musk and he does and that's not good so I replied with that
No man scares me but that thing
*schaff's voice existing on a person not tamatoa*
It scares me
Cat James Cordon is who I aspire to be
He is my fursona
Nice aspiration
Schafrillas's friend: "Does anybody like Cats?"
Schafrillas: "I don't think so."
Me, quietly sobbing: "I do. 😭"
Same
"this wont be part of the rise of skywalker video, that ones long already"
tros video: 9 minutes
cats video: 30 minutes
After watching this I had to watch Chicago to remember that I like musicals, and then listen to the original broadway Cats album to remember that I do, in fact, like Cats
Schrafrillas: “Have you said your prayers to the uh...”
Tomatoa: “Choose your next words wisely”
The thing that hurts most for me is that Cats was a _huuuge_ part of my childhood, I used to act out every song in my bedroom and pretend I was in the musical, I knew every single word and constantly obsessed over going to see it in person cause I had only ever heard the cast recording. Last year my best friend took me to see it and I literally fucking cried. At intermission, a bunch of people (about 1/4 of the entire audience in fact) just left the theater because they didn't like it, and I was so confused?? And my friend explained that a lot of people really disliked the musical because it has no plot and is basically just a crazy spectacle... which I totally understand, but that was actually the main reason I love it so much. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion of course, but this movie is making people bring up how much they hate the original musical and it kinda hurts. If it was a good movie I could maybe forgive it, but the fact that they butchered the musical so badly just adds insult to injury for me.
Sad boi hours.
Cats isn’t meant to really meant to have a plot it’s just sort of a loose ballet sort of thing
i see your “cats is the worst musical you could adapt into a movie” and raise you one Putnam County Spelling Bee
Please no....
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT AND I HATE IT
No, it's arguably better than Cats.
Because you wouldn't get these cringey hyperrealistic cat-human hybrids.
@@TornaitSuperBird you have a great point
I see your Putnam County Spelling Bee and raise you one Starlight Express and one The Trail to Oregon to spice it up a bit.
At an absolute push you could make Putnam work by tweaking a few things to make it a character-driven story about a seemingly normal competition from the exaggerated perspective of the children, going extra bizarre visually for the songs/fantasy sequences (that's if you were absolutely forced to mind, it would probably still fall flat on its face), Trail to Oregon loses a big chunk of the comedy the minute it isn't interactive and Starlight Express would literally just end up being as weird as Cats but with anthro trains doing roller-skating stunts that lose most of the impact when they aren't performed live.
Please consider comparing the atrocity of CATS 2019 with the actual stage film version from 1998. 🙏🏻
"I don't like most ALW musicals except for Jesus Christ Superstar" I can't fathom you not liking Phantom though...
Me and the boys going to see cats: bringing them gift cards: getting them sodas: we prepared.
Dude 'Cats' was such an awesome and innovative movie they made an entire SPECIES based on it!!
"Cats"
*"Ah yes, enslaved Saberspark"*
I hope that the failure of Cats will teach Hollywood that an all star cast ≠ a good movie (but I know they’ll never learn).

Should we tell him there's an In the Heights movie coming?
N-ergyTheMighty In the Heights has potential tho
And it looks amazing shat up
I just hope it is better than the musical
I went deaf with the amount of high notes per minute.
@@LunaWitcher um what? Are you talking about Karen Olivo in 'It Won't Be Long Now'? because those high notes were amazing!
@@panicatthelafayette8845 Oh, they were amazing! But the musical was ALL high notes at least in the first half. It gets stale really fast.
'Cats' is a conceptually bad movie.
Me: How many times are you going to use the same title format?
Schaffrillas: Yes
Cats is the nightmare of everyone who specialises in visual arts
Trust me, I know
12:44 I’ll leave you guys with this time stamp.
"There is no CATS in Ba Sing Se."
I can't believe that Schaffrillis does not have a shiny crab face! *Defining moment in history*
Well atleast you can see the shitstorm so we dont.
Unfortunately, he’ll remember it so we don’t have to.
Wait, wrong channel.
"Tom Hooper can't direct anything"
*Looks on IMDb*
"Director of The King's Speech"
And Les Mis like wtf
When i went to see cats there was literally no one in the theater, just me and my friend
7 years ago, Judi Dench looked into the future and saw the inevitable: She’d be in the movie Cats. She’s been frowning ever since.
Question, did the characters look better or worse than the first Sonic Movie design?
RiderNexus it *was* the first sonic movie design just with cats
RiderNexus worse
Definitely worse
Worse because the cats looked like roadkill
Sonic had a shit design but the CGI itself was ok. This was just shit
It's like your neko girl dreams come true but then you realize that it's not a dream, it's a nightmare.
Can we just say that Rum-Tum-Tugger or whatever in the play was hot
Did you watch this movie?
“I did, I wish I didn’t”
"I want it to win all of the awards so that the academy will implode on itself".
Yes yes yes
My introduction to the CATS musical was a preview that played before the old Barney movie on a vhs tape I had as a kid. Years later, they get a movie and I still don't know what it's supposed to be
4:03 I didn’t think about the implications.... oh my GOD I didn’t THINK ABOUT IT
I’m going to apologise to Garfield now
I’m more scared of this movie than my sleep paralysis demon.
I've made peace with mine. We play scrabble on Thursdays.
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche5761 Really? Mine plays Monopoly with me on Saturdays
@@Healeon I'm so sorry. A mercy killing is your best option.
Would you ever make a top 10 musicals? It woul be cool to hear what musicals you like the best!
