One hand caressed his cheek,the other drew the weapon softly - " I love you, I love you "
I whispered "love you as my life ". And -
buried in him the scalping knife.
-Pauline Johnson (Ojistoh)
You who never touched anything without wanting to destroy it, you who never loved anything at all !

how... could they ruin Mister Mistoffelees...
THEY MASSACRED MY BOY!!
look at what they did to him!
fig.1: Magical Mr Mistoffelees! He’ll fucking set you on fire with his bare paws! His coat literally glows with light! His boyfriend is his hype man, who sings his song to give all the other cats something to hope for! Descends from the heavens on a rope! Summons Old Deuteronomy back with a swish of a silk cloth and some glitter! GAY! AS! HELL!
fig.2: Magical...? Mr Mistoffelees? Spends the whole film doing little tricks to try to impress Victoria and failing, and then at the end finally manages after REALLY STRAINING and with absolutely NO pizzazz, to summon Old Deut back (so like. good for him on that one). His song is sung by Munkustrap and Victoria in a desperate attempt to give him confidence but he’s uhh- well. just. look at him. HE USES A NUMBER TWO PENCIL AS A WAND. (he has a cute hat though.)
but - WORST OF ALL - they made him S T R A I G H T ?
THIS CAT? Who literally BRINGS COLOUR BACK to the stage and yells PRESTO?
THIS? CAT? with his gay little glance at his boyfriend and his handfuls of glitter?
THIS???? CAT???? WITH HIS LITTLE TIN CUP FULL OF RAINBOWS?
he's a fucking
~HOMOSEXUAL~
Also - and this is not specific to him - look at that gif from the movie and tell me they didnt give the cats monkey tails. they couldnt be fucked to observe a cat for ten seconds and be like 'ah i see that their tails are in fact NOT PREHENSILE, and in fact if a cat's tail were to bend that way it'd be fucking BROKEN. hmm, interesting, how about we implement that in our movie where we have full control over what their tails do?' like????? WAS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK? the original stage show had better tails and they were just limp strips of fabric.
just. LOOK AT THIS.
its like their tails are a seperate entity from their fucking bodies! they don’t look like theyre controlling them at all, they look like theyre being puppeted by someone else :(
this movie. was a mistake. so much potential, squandered.
...at least release the butthole cut, you cowards.
