Twitter Let the Claws Come Out Over Cats's Hilarious Glitches and Mistakes

Me watching #CATSmovie: WHY human faces and human hands? Why so small? What is Judi Dench’s fur coat made of? How do they poop? How did I get here? Why so boring? Who is responsible for this? What hath cat-manity wrought pic.twitter.com/z4b0ysQ800

This isn’t a joke: CATS was rushed into theaters before being finished so a new version is being sent to theaters with updated effects. How do you know if you have the old version? Look for Judi Dench’s human hand, wedding ring and all. pic.twitter.com/VDUOevePU9

Everybody out here policing Judi Dench’s cat hands like some kind of Paw Patrol

impassioned CATS fans form human chain around theater to prevent delivery of CATS update and to preserve Dame Judi Dench’s human hand

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not Jellicles can and Jellicles do, they didn't stop to think if Jellicles should.

Cats v1.1.003E

+ Fixed glitch that shows Old Dueteronomy with human hands
+ Fixed glitch that shows human in hoodie in background
+ James Corden now 14% less funny
+ Removed bug that crashes audience when cockroaches appear
+ Screwed more VFX artists over just before Christmas https://t.co/U16ghnnOPR

So it looks like the CATS patch hit some theaters last night via satellite, and hits the rest of theaters on Tuesday in their usual hard drive delivery. Which means, you likely have until tomorrow to carefully look for some dude in a hoodie in the background of a shot.

I personally feel very strongly that the mistake is giving Judi Dench weird cat hands, and the human hands cut is the correct one https://t.co/sVUzvHOLUP

My girlfriend is convinced there are so many mistakes and unfinished CGI in Cats because the effects artists couldn’t take looking at the footage over and over.

If Cats can issue a patch to fix all the mistakes after it’s been released, can I do the same for *gestures* my whole life

digitally correcting the "mistakes" of CATS is a direct attack on nothing less than the sanctity of God. To do this on Christmas is unforgivable. It is heresy

Hollywood, you’re making a mistake. There are a lot of us CATS: The Movie purists out there and we refuse to watch anything with better FX https://t.co/jtA2Auiht1

MISTAKES LEFT IN THE FINAL VERSION OF CATS:

- Judi Dench’s human hand & wedding ring are visible

- Ian McKellen asks where craft services is

- During one song, Idris Elba can be seen on his phone yelling at his agent for agreeing to be in Cats

- Taylor Swift drives a Prius

If you haven’t seen CATS yet, see CATS. Throw every review you’ve read in the trash and just go. The movie defies criticism and all conventional notions of “good” and “bad” and demands to be seen on its own terms, whatever they are. I have no idea. I just know I’m glad I saw it. pic.twitter.com/QbfuvmWOJb

It’s unethical to fix CATS
