I just watched the trailer for the film version of Cats

[Doyoumind]

Les Mis worked as a film. That was a good move.

I haven't actually seen Cats on stage but I think I could cope with human cats in a theatre. On screen it just looks weird.

Anyone else seen it?

Pros - Sir Ian McKellen
Dami Judi

Cons - JC

I saw the stage show a few years ago. Don’t know who was Grizabella, but her ‘Memory’ made the hairs on my neck stand up. It was beautiful. Memory is not meant to be shouted. It’s wistful, sad.

I'm struggling with James Corden as Bustopher Jones I'm afraid. It's the accent...

Just watched the trailer; can't wait for the film!
I LOVE musical theatre and adored CATS when I saw it on stage many years ago.

If I have one negative, it is that I don't particularly like JH's version of 'Memory', a beautiful song that always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Nobody sings it like Ms Paige though! 😻

Having watched it again, I do think the CGI tails are quite good.
