It didn’t really strike me as looking that terrible. I certainly didn’t have the visceral reaction the article describes. I had to watch the trailers again to understand what they were talking about... it’s a film about human-cat hybrids that communicate through interpretive dance and overblown songs, what the fuck do people expect!?
Mind, I really enjoyed the Lion King remake. It didn’t tarnish my childhood memory of the original (which would be quite difficult, since my parents could only afford a poor quality pirate VHS copy, and not the cinema trip). Apparently people hated that too.
Cats looks surreal enough that it’d probably be a good date flick, nothing to actually take seriously. Definitely a memorable moment. Same as watching the Twilight films.

This was my reaction too. "Yep, looks exactly how a Cats screenplay would look." I think these are all just people coming out of the woodwork who never liked Cats. Or people who haven't seen it on stage and didn't realize how silly and weird it already is.
