CATS: THE MUSICAL 2020

[A WASTED POTENTIAL and how it could have been better]

Now if any of you saw Cats (God bless your soul) you may not have the best opinions of it. That's a fair assumption to have. I watched it recently and realised that despite the internets rightful vitriol towards this 3d animated retelling, it had alot of potential to be good in its own way.

Thus I have sought to fix the movie

The Visual aspect

What went wrong

First I want to compare these 2 images

The image on the left has exaggerated cat features Cloth and furs rapped around their arms, legs and torsos to reduced the human proportions and traits, making it more animalistic. Makeup which accentuate feline features, that moves from the face into the head piece. And bold colors to booth.

The right image has none of these. The colors are singular, as with most of the characters. The re are no attempts to remove the human characteristics on this model, excluding the placement of the ears. To put it simply they slapped fur whiskers and a tail on a human a called them a cat.

What separates the characters from the play and the movie on a visual level is that the 2020 version makes them look more human than cat.

Though this can be considered one of its greater downfalls. I believe this stark difference could have distinguished it in a good way.

Another problem is that cats switch between wearing clothes and not wearing them. There's alot of inconsistency.

Okay so how would I fix it?

1. Make everyone human like

Instead of making the mice and roaches look like nightmare fuel. Just give them animal and bug like characteristics on their human bodies. Like they did with the cats

2. Give them all clothes.

Due to the more human appearance of the characters. It would be better to have them wear clothes. Not only would this solve the problem of inconsistency in terms clothing within the show. But it would also allow them to tell more about the character through clothing.

Here are some examples.

A. Victoria

I think her outfit should be a simple fully white dress. She is new to the streets and has yet to find her place amongst the cats.

To add she should be the only cat with that shade of bright white. Making her stand out even more amongst the other characters.

All other white cats should stick to shades of off-white to differentiate.

B. Jennyanydots

Her outfit should look something like this. It's simple and represents her as a simple, prim and proper individual. The colors should look bleached out and dull.

However as she starts to sing and reveals her real personality which is far more energetic and outgoing. She changes her clothes(Instead of unzipping her skin 🤢) into something more stage worthy.

I was thinking she could wear a burlesque-like outfit. Lots of feather tho. And the color should pop. I'm thinking bright red of orange

C. The roaches and mice

As I stated earlier I believe both the mice and the roaches should look somewhat human. In some way.

Additionally I believe they should be wearing clothes as well.

Though unlike the cats, who have a varietyof coats lenghts and colors ,their appearances don't vary outside of minor colour discrepancies.

For the roaches

For the mice

(I'm thinking like a coal miner outfit. Didn'tfeel like drawing it. So this is the basic idea)

4. The twins

They are supposed to be kittens. And are very young so they would wear matching outfits in green or blue.

5. Background cats.

The background cats should wear an outfit like this along with a pair of ballet slippers

The colours should be simple and be similar to their fur color.

Depending on the scene accessories can be added to make them suit the scene better.

However they should never captivate the audience as much as the main characters on screen

5. Old Deuteronomy

Should wear long fluffy coat to substitute for long fur.

So I'm about to watch Cats the movie...

First I need to establish that I love the musical and that I've seen the sideways video on it but not the movie itself.

I am scared. Wish me luck!

No because the thing that makes Cats the Musical amazing (the 1998 version at least) is that it's a COMMUNITY and a TRIBE and they LOVE and UPLIFT each other they're a FAMILY !!! FRIENDS !!!!!!!!!!!! It makes me feel so warm and good inside !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 2019 version is just a bunch of assholes bickering. 0/10.

Currently stuck on listening to Cats music. I don't know if it's the furry in me or the animator in me, but I love watching the actors' tails move. Like I'll literally rewind the video so much that I'll be watching a 5 minute video for 30 minutes just cause I want to watch every actor's tail's movement from camera angle to camera angle. Not to mention that I'll listen to the music on repeat, and if at any moment I start paying attention to the video, I'll spend another half hour watching the tails again. ...I'm not sure if this is concerning or not.

On a related note, I finally got my mom to watch an hour long video breakdown of the music and plot of Cats the movie vs. Cats the musical. It's a wonderful victory. 😌

#I have been listening to vocaloid music and Cats music at school for a week now #I've ranted about the aforementioned video to a friend or two too lol #and I've just gotten two cardboard cat statues through a series of unrelated events and I'm gonna paint them #(I really wanna paint one as Macavity from the movie)#(just cause ignoring the description of the character in the actual song just to make the actor look like he's naked is freakin hilarious)#(and he looks so bad that he's now one of my fav characters in the movie??? Somehow)#but anyway I don’t know if I keep talking about Cats cause it's fun #or cause it's hilarious to see people's expressions when I start talking about Cats #but either way it's super funny #cats the movie #cats the film #cats the musical
