The Critic brought over some actors from his failed Demo Reel project and does skits parodying the movie or riffing on features of it, in addition to reviewing it. For what it's worth, I think it's a lot more fun than his old stuff.

Yeah, I noticed that in the 8 Crazy Nights review. I dunno, I kinda agree with Vashtar, I like his old, more raw style better
I'm sure that I loved some awful things when I was younger, but mainly the things I remember finding funny still hold up, or are at least funny on more than one level.
I'm honestly surprised I didn't catch how much of an utter failure it was as a film when I was younger.
Then again, it was 2003.
I got the movie in this bogus 'get free movie deal' that I made my parents sign up for (luckily, I also got Shrek out of the deal). I am sad to say that I loved it.
When I was 14 and realized exactly how much it sucked, I put the disk into the microwave as a sacrifice to good taste. And yet we 'still' have a copy of it that arrived from nobody even knows where.
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
It occurred to me recently why that movie looked so impeccable, even if it was a crap movie otherwise: its director, Bo Welch, is usually a production designer...though he didn't write any of it.
Funny, people like the aesthetic of it, even though it felt to me like that stuff wasn't supposed to exist in physical form...

Shrek...that's because Universal distributed DreamWorks SKG's movies on home video back then
Yeah, if one could take the looks of The Cat and turn it into an animated film you could have something special there as long as it extended the plot in a way that made sense
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Proof Centie was a stupid kid: she liked The Cat in the Hat the first couple times she saw it
I finally re-watched it a couple years back, and only then did it dawn on me exactly how terrible it is
Also now I want to re-watch NC's review of it, thanks a lot

That, and if they got a less ogrish Cat
I think Illumination has one in development...so says Wikipedia, at least.
I have not found even one animated show I liked as a kid that I still find watchable today.
I can think of quite a few, actually. One or two are pretty embarrassing, though.
Do you want to tell us?
Anyway, when I was a kid, I didn't like shows as much as on-air looks. The 1998-2004 Cartoon Network look is probably my favorite on-air look of all time...the 1998-2002 ABC stuff ranks behind it, and the 1999-2004 Game Show Network look has joined the list as of late, even though it's so much classier than what it surrounded.

Semi-random thought of the moment: New files in Microsoft Excel contain three blank spreadsheets by default. I wonder what percentage of Excel files have two extraneous sheets because someone only needed one and couldn't be arsed to delete the other two?

we all know the One True Meme is Mega Milk
Cat in the Hat was especially absurd
In a Cat in the Hat film
A castration joke
Then again, it was 2003.
Also Master of Disguise is the funniest thing when you are ten.
Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead

Their current CMYK look is also pretty nice, if a bit garish.
(Genndy was entirely their own fault, however. Stupid Snyder is stupid.)
It was CN Real and the destruction of the Cartoonstitute
dammit Snyder
I have mixed feelings about Sony Pictures Animation. I mean, you've got the great stuff like Surf's Up and Cloudy from them, but then there's...
-shudder-
the Smurfs...
But rainbow-brite is amazing!
they are a cereal maybe
alas
I have what I can really only describe as a very small hole in my chest. It's uncomfortable.
