I forgot! This year's Razzies:
https://www.razzies.com/razz-newz.html

Cats took home the most awards, not surprisingly:

Worst Picture, Supporting Actor (James Corden) and Supporting Actress (Rebel Wilson) Screen Combo (Any Two Half-Feline/Half Human Hairballs) Worst Screenplay and Worst Director (Tom Hooper).

First claim, of course, to chipmunk and to squirrel for bleak mid-Winter sustenance belongs, as all around old leaves descend and twirl about, through feathered autumn songs.

Wow, this should be good. Or bad. Or so bad-it's-almost-good.

I went to see " Cats " because I was curious if it really was as awful as they said it was. I saw it on a Wednesday and being 55+ of age and a Cinemark Movie member, I saw it for $4 at the casino ( Yes, most local casinos, not The Strip ones, have movie multiplexes in them with lounge chairs in them ) so the financial hit was not severe. It really was bad and the fact that so many of the stars, like Idris Elba for example, were in that shit show will be a stain on their careers. It will make for a lot of trivia fodder for the future though. :P

It really was bad
In the past we have thanked you for your service, but in this case we must thank you for sacrificing those two hours seeing CATS.
Glad to know some things can actually be truly and altogether awful.  Now, hopefully movie-makers can learn from it.

" Cats " in a way is like those awful videos from Russia where you see car accidents and the sheer stupidity that caused them to happen. It can be fascinating to see such a thing happen which causes great monetary loss and wrecks reputations ( I hope nobody died due to it. ). :P

I think the careers of all of the people who "acted" in Cats will survive -- mainly because so few people saw that mess in the cinemas and it will soon leave the collective consciousness except as a punchline to a joke :)

I'm so disappointed in Judi Dench, Ian McKellan, and Idris Elba in getting involved with that mess.  They're 3 of my favorite actors, and I hate to think of their reputations being degraded.   :(

I apologize in advance if I post duplicate pictures in any of the picture threads I deal in.  My MO in getting pictures of one girl is to rip her Instagram.  That ends up with me having up to 2000 pics of her.  I've tried almost half a dozen duplicate finder programs, and none of them find all of the duplicates I inevitably end up with.

^ Well, they probably got so much money from the producer of " Cats " that they probably don't care. :P

All three actors are held in such high esteem that this will blow over quickly. No one bats a thousand all the time. They'll be fine. The only person I'm worried about is the director, whoever he is. Cats is now his Heaven's Gate, his Ishtar.
