why am i oddly attracted to Taylor Swift in cat form, but not in real life?
I may need to see a doctor.
also...this trailer is hilarious. and that rendition of "alone in the moonlight" was terrible.
So... I LOVE the stage version. I saw it a couple of times, and it was a fave soundtrack growing up (my wife bought me a copy of Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats a few years ago). That said...
It looks remarkably true to how I remember it. At least visually. Dialogue is... New. I get it though. The narrative of Cats is pretty abstract (cats “competing” to ascend to the Heavyside Layer), and needs the dialogue to make sense.
I saw it getting dragged hard on Twitter. The screen grabs make it look deserved. And Tom Hooper is a hack. But, damn, when they’re in motion, I get it and I dig it.
And Jason Derulo as Rum Tum Tugger is tops.
Edit - Corrected Jeliside to Heavyside. The Jeliside Layer is our world (all the cats are "Jelicle Cats"). Heavyside is "heaven." And, yes, my nerdiness is showing.
The problem is the only people who are sold based on this trailer are existing Cats fans, which I think is hardly enough to be a box office success.And Idris Elba as Macavity...as long as they keep the Mungojerrie/Rumpleteazer song, I'm sold.

I don’t doubt it... maybe even for scenic design the sets are amazing in the trailer most of it isn’t even cgi either which is coolYa'll keep hatin'. It'll win an Oscar.
