I have never in my life heard of a new version of a movie being rushed to theaters after the opening weekend.
But the producers of CATS are doing just that.
What could they possibly hope to achieve by doing this?
It seems like even seemingly benign behaviors all fit into a pattern of people in our society going completely insane.
On Friday — the movie’s opening day — Universal notified thousands of theaters they will be receiving an updated version of Tom Hooper’s troubled film with “some improved visual effects,” according to a copy of the memo obtained by The Hollywood Reporter.
The move is unheard of for a finished title already in release, according to cinema operators and Hollywood studio executives. Insiders say it is being done at Hooper’s request.
Cats — which has been savaged by critics — is in need of any help it can get at the box office after opening to $2.6 million on Friday and receiving a C+ CinemaScore from moviegoers.
Hooper has been up front about the fact that he barely finished the CGI-heavy Cats in time for Monday’s world premiere in New York City. Sources say he subsequently wanted to make more tweaks to certain effects.
Working Title produced the star-studded Christmas film, which cost roughly $100 million to make after tax rebates and incentives and before marketing.
Universal’s dispatch to exhibitors said the changes do not affect the running time.
The studio declined comment on Saturday.
…
The studio is asking that theaters replace the current print of Cats as soon as possible.
I have described CATS as a furry porno, which is exactly what it is.
So I’m glad it flopped.
Although, it was also the film debut of Taylor Swift, who had gotten back into my good graces after she went on an anti-Semitic rant.
So too bad for her.
