I listen to this and I imagine a European from the Middle Ages, who has never seen anything other than white people, suddenly sees an African or an Asian. They'd probably react like this. "Yuk, so uncanny! So almost human and yet not quite human. It looks horrifying and disturbing!"

Terry Gilliam would have had a good stab at it, but his version would have gone over budget, probably have taken years to film and there would have been some unforeseen tragedy, like the producer running off with the money or someone dying midway through filming. Seriously, poor Gilliam needs one last chance to go out on a high.

I weirdly think it would have worked In a stop motion style. Like nightmare before Xmas. I know a lot of it is dancing but it would be cool to see them move the physical models to dance. It wouldn't look weird like the cgi and it wouldn't be too Broadway with real actors. It would be it's own thing.

I seriously think the only way Cats would have worked is if it had been made 30 years ago by someone who was bonkers and fearless like Ken Russell. He would have known how to tackle the material, and maybe employ Rick Baker to do the make-up. However, no-one in Hollywood would touch Ken Russell with a 100 foot barge pole by then. Pity.

Whoa whoa whoa! Did he just reference one of the more obscure REM “hit” songs? *Can’t Get There From Here* was a 1985 single off of Document and had a very brief moment in the sun thanks to MTV but other early 80’s one hit wonders like Honeymoon Suite knocked them off the charts.

I'd definitely watch a live adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'Starlight Express' made by David Cronenberg or David Lynch, really leaning in heavy on the body horror of CGI trains having human faces. If you make it a Kafkaesque cyberpunk horror flick, that would be at least interesting.
