The third verse in Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats is so unfairly satisfying-
Like, Come on!
"With book and with bell!"
"Were you Whittington's friend~"
"The Pied Piper's assistant."
"WERE YOU THERE WHEN THE PHAROAHS COMMISSIONED THE SPHINX??????"
"If you were, and you are, you're a Jellicle Cat."
Dead. Simply dead.

Re-watched CATS (2019) for the first time in a while, and I was shocked all over again at by how much I enjoyed it. I think the issues could have been fixed by:
Getting rid of the stunt casting. Rebel Wilson ruined Jennyanydots, and while the rest of the celebs cast were tolerable, I don't think any of them fully understood the assignment (and yes, this includes Dame Judi Dench and Sir Ian McKellen. Both are undeniably talented actors who I love in almost everything, but they seemed too human in their movements and expression. They did their best with roles that ultimately weren't right for their acting style). The only exception to this is Jason Derulo, who clearly had both an understanding of and a passion for the material.
Cutting the throwaway joke lines (e.g. "Don't mess with the crazy cat lady"). They were really jarring tonally, and both Cordon and Wilson (who got most of those lines) seemed very aware of that, which made them stand out even more.
Making Macavity's fur a different color that looked less like a human skin tone so he didn't appear naked.
Animating Grizabella's tears during "Memory" differently so that it looked less like she had snot running into her mouth.
This was so, so close to a perfect adaptation and it bothers me that most of what made it fall short was trying to make it "fit in" with other big movies, when CATS is so much its own strange, unique thing. What made it such a popular Broadway show was that it was unlike anything else on Broadway, and I feel like most of the time the filmmakers did a fantastic job of honoring that, but sometimes they caved to pressure to make it more "normal" and you can pinpoint exactly when those times are.
Anyways, it's still an awesome movie and I will absolutely die on this hill.

cats merch idea that nobody will make: ballerina music boxes, but with victoria (white cat solo) and mistoffelees (turns obvi, the part where he flips his hands out during the brass blare). the victoria one would play the slow theme from the white cat solo. in my heart i want the misto music to be from the turns in the dance break but i don't think that would translate very well to a music box; realistically it would be a phrase of the "magical mister mistoffelees" chorus
you could probably make ones with other cats who have characteristic poses/music but i don't think it would translate as perfectly, you know?

If we had a daughter / I'd watch and could not save her / She'd meet the same cruel fate / I've gotta run so I can undo this mistake
