    It seems that almost EVERYONE, even Disney, have decided that there can never be another original 2D movie ever made again. For gods' sakes, Moana was originally going to be 2-D, but was changed to 3-D CGI for no real reason. YES, 2-D is difficult and tedious to make (frame by frame), But it looks AMAZING when it all works out.

      3D has been “In” for 20 years. It’s starting to get dull. There are pros and cons to both 2D and 3D. 3D allows for a real camera so animators don’t have to painstakingly draw 360 shots and can have more dramatic angles and lighting can be easily controlled. 2D allows for more vibrant color and when it done well it ages like fine wine while 3D ages like milk most of the time.

      Not currently. 2D has been out for two decades. It’s just studios don’t seem to think 2D is marketable when that is far from the truth. There have been successful 2D films in recent years, it’s just that Disney and other larger animation companies don’t want to take the risk.

    Cats feet clipping down under the floor.
    James Corden's character turns transparent at one point so you can see the cobblestone texture behind him.
    The barge cats clothes kept clipping into his legs and neck.
    There was an actor who's fur wasn't included in that version of the film.
    Clothing in general, collars etc looked like they were floating around the characters moving in illogical ways.

      @@noodlebrains2689 just so you know, ballet dancers generally are not wealthy at all. The median salary for ballet dancers is like 20-30k a year. for the amount of body-destroying physical labor they have to do and the hours they work, that's a pittance. Being a principle dancer at the Royal Ballet would get you more money than average dancers, but that means you'd have to be top of the top of the top. And even at this prestigious level, so she'd get some more money than the average dancer but even dancers at that prestigious level would be making like 200k a year unless they find outside contracts or other hustles. Considering that ballet dancing is so strenuouz to your body, and that your professional career at the top levels basically ends at around 30-40 years of age, you're really not looking at an amazing salary. And, again, these are the TOP dancers of the TOP dancers in the world. Basically, don't lump professional ballet dancers in with people like James Corden and Rebel Wilson, who have very little talent but massive incomes.

      @@spooplegeist For quite a time bushmeat / undercooked meat is commonly thought to have been the starting point for many past diseases (etc). That includes Aids, originally a Chimp flu that (probably) transferred via undercooked chimpanzee bush meat.
      Its one reason why (in modern times) we have been taught to make sure we cook our food well. However, the taste of raw/undercooked meat has a long history in Human culture (for a number of reasons), and so it's hard for many to give it up (or, to get that education to where it is needed most). I think Ebola will have the same root of transfer too (given the massive increase in the bush meat trade over time).

      the musical is really something you need to try and see be performed on stage, because the whole charm of it is the actors doing improv and trying to recreate how fucking weird and funny cats are despite being humans just wearing cat makeup and wigs that vaguely resemble ears. The dancing is good too, but the real charm of it imo is the actors doing their best to recreate the experience of your pet cat just STARING at you and never breaking eye contact like they know all the secrets of the universe before abruptly running up a wall onto a ledge and beginning to bathe themselves. The whole point of cats is to imagine what cats think of themselves and their own behavior since so many people have no idea how to even begin to understand why cats behave the way that they do. The poems by TS Elliot did this to begin with, though on a lesser scale, and the only reason we even got a musical was because the poems could be adapted into songs rather easily and become bops.

      The problem is, they're upright, so you have to make a compromise between making them the size of cats standing on their hind legs or cats standing on all fours.

    “Cats” was a smash hit stage musical written by Andrew Lloyd Weber, and ran for 21 years in London’s West End, almost 9000 performances. It was wonderful as a stage show, and whoever thought it would work as a movie should have realised that it was not adaptable to a movie without losing a lot of its character. Other musicals have adapted well, such as “Little shop of horrors” and “Rocky horror show”, but this wasnt one of them.

    • @WitchBriar
      @WitchBriar 4 роки тому +51

      eightgateslee20 probably because some of things Ralph mentioned as issues with the movie are issues within the original musical itself that are only amplified through a different medium. There isn’t like, any plot in the original. It’s just singing and dancing. It’s a live spectacle, where all of the music is just character introductions. In movie format, that’s just like sitting down to watch a bunch of interconnected music videos...which is boring. Therefore you must invent a plot and either cut a ton of the music or squish it all in. It’ll be either a decent movie that doesn’t feel like Cats, or a bad movie with all the elements of Cats that don’t translate well to a screen.

    The theatre friends I’ve got have told me that the musical isn’t revered for its story or other hallmarks of his plays, but for the impressive make up work and spectacle. It’s more of a “so bad it’s good” kind of classic to my understanding, and a cinematic adaptation based on a musical loved for that was bound to fail.

    •  4 роки тому +17

      yeah as a theater friend, that's exactly it. "classics" with absolute garbage plots are way more common in theater because doing live shit is hard in a bunch of other ways so you can be impressed by a play and still not "like" it much. Its not that it's "so bad its good" its that the makeup work and the choreography of the original was so good, its worth ignoring the story to see. For another example, Merry Poppins is the greatest show I've ever seen, and I hate the movie. The stage show is goddamn magic though, people walking up walls, doing upside down tapdances, climing out of boxes little girls carried on stage...Genuinely no clue how they did some things and I don't want to know.
      And your conclusion is correct, because CGI stopped being impressive in 2008 and now people like practical shit again because the effort is minimized with new technology. Genuinely impressive CGI can be done by almost any filmmaker, some just...fail still lol.

      That said, I honestly love this movie for all of the wrong reasons. Like, it's like watching a fucking dream. All I can compare it to is something like either a Neil Breen movie or legitimate surreal cinema like The Holy Mountain (more so the former given the incompetence). It's so fucking bizarre that I kind of want to recommend it to people who like weird shit. It's not good as a film or musical AT ALL, but it's an experience.

Not surprised a theater kid feels that way... like talking to the show choir kids all over again. Mediocre singing and even worse acting, _"But hey, look at us move semi-synchronized!"_
      If everything takes a backseat to spectacle, I'll go watch a Power Rangers stunt show, WWE, or go to an arena rock concert (probably have better and more complex music). If you can't tell a compelling narrative through the music and choreography, why bother having all of those elements? Sondheim does that well. Menken does that well. Webber's work is stuck in an era where just throwing as much shit at the audience as possible with a slight melody is considered impressive.

      _The Dark Crystal_ took five years to make. And it's definitely in the top 4 best movies of all time, along with this one. The other two are _TRON_ (the 1982 original) and _Starship Troopers._
