(Can you imagine Cats the musical with a Murderbiscuit? CAN YOU???)
So many red ribbons
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Bwah!
I just want more of the Fathom Event things where they show filmed Broadway productions. Why hasn't there been one of these for Wicked? Whyyyyyy?
IT Chapter Two: I'm the scariest trailer you'll see all day!
Cats: Hold my milk
Ha!
I feel the IT Chapter Two trailer is scarier, but, y'know, clowns. That weird "vintage clown doll" laughing noise throughout is 1) accurate as hell, 2) NIGHTMARE FUEL, and 3) still echoing in my head from watching the trailer yesterday.
Re: the plot of Cats:
Excuse me, there is a sub-plot where the head boss cat gets kidnapped...and then brought back.
IT IS THE SAME PLOT YES
I have to assume the movie was a direct inspiration for the musical since the Ustinov character is basically constantly quoting Eliot's poems.
My copy of Old Possum has illustrations by Nicholas Bentley. I've had it forever--but I'd love to have the Gorey one.
I'd never seen a dilute calico cat before, and the little stray looked like she'd been splashed with paint; she had spots, or dots. I named her Jennyanydots. She was with us 15 years.
I'm also watching Logan's Run for the first time, and honestly, I'd rather be watching Cats.
Logan's Run was impressive back when it was new and I was impressionable. "Not held up well" is a good definition.
ETA: Proto-Farrah, though. Pretty Michael York. And Jenny Agutter was in a couple of the MCU movies as the Brit whose face Natasha used to infiltrate the meeting.
I expect someone will (or has already) started taking pictures of their cats with the human-sized items from the trailer, to show Reality Scale.
