Honestly, I think Cats is worth the watch. I was never bored; it was an absolute rollercoaster of terrible filmmaking decisions. It was never boring. Morbius, by comparison, wasn't even that much fun as a trainwreck watch.

You actually watched Morbius?

Why?

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 45 points 4 months ago

Morbiud curiosity.

[–] AnIntenseMoist@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Not OP, but I just realized that I watched Morbius at some point and remember almost nothing about it, including what compelled me to watch it in the first place.

I swear I haven't watched Morbius, but I have a sneaking suspicion that I have actually watched it and have completely blocked all memory of it as a traumatic event.

This is like having to check your own browser history, and being terrified every moment of it

That sounds like the premise to a b horror movie.

I watched Morbius because I was waiting for the main character to say, "It's Morbin' time!" I was sorely disappointed.

My favorite fun fact about Cats is that after watching it, Andrew Lloyd Webber, writer of Cats, decided to adopt a dog.

Cats received negative reviews by critics, many of whom named it one of the worst films of all time. It grossed $75.5 million on a budget of $80–100 million, resulting in an estimated loss of $71 million after ancillary costs, and making it one of the biggest box-office bombs of all time.

Ouch

[–] TOModera@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Famous musical by Andrew Lloyd Weber that was then turned into a terrible film.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 18 points 4 months ago

Weber's reaction to the movie was getting a dog.

It's a horrible fucking movie about human-looking cats. Shit still gives me nightmares lol.
