Hey fun fact: I heard Suess's wife was so disgusted with this movie that she prohibited Hollywood from making any live action movies off her husbands stories
Silent Artist oh yeah why do i see. The grinch coming up
And somehow it was all downhill from there
Silent Artist god bless her soul
Silent Artist, Yep. :)
not all great artists' spouses put the work of their lost beloved one over easy money... Majel Rodenberry did let Kevin Sorbo make a crappy series out off her husband's notes ("Andromeda")
"By having grown-up humor, you make it more childish. By modernizing the dialogue, you make it more dated. And by changing the source material, you show how much you DON'T respect what's already perfect."
I love this.
Third part is a main reason the Mario bros. movie failed, I think.
Vriska Serket so true
Pokémaniac Guquiz pretty much
But the chart says
📉
That's a beautiful quote, that insults a BAD movie.

My dad never let me watch sponge bob as a kid bc he saw one episode, and it had an adult joke, yet he let me watch this movie over and over again, to a point where it’s now nostalgic to me...
He probably saw a post-movie episode...
I weep for you.
SpongeBob is mature and sophisticated compare to Mike Myer’s Cat in the Hat. I’m sorry you had a rough childhood.
I need to know. What episode?
Was your dad insane
"You're FIIIIRRREDA!"

A grown man wrote that line, knowing it would be seen by the public.

This movie was so bad that Seuss' wife forbid Universal to do any other live action movie from his books. can't blame her...
wait really?
+tjlnintendo True story.
The truest of souless never listen. And Universal is one of them.
Yep! Then they just went to CGI and Seuss kept spinning >_
tarrker Apparently she likes the CGI adaptations from what I've heard.
In my opinion this is the single greatest Nostalgia Critic episode Doug has made. You can tell he has such passion for his rage.
Same
would you let me know any other great nc reviews?? I’m new to his channel and I wanna know where the best of the best is…
Alvin and the Chipmunks lorax the mask in 1994 patch Adams
How Mike Myers acted like in the movie?
95% Austin Powers
5% the cat in the hat
Austin Powers were retarded movies. The first one was the only tolerable one
Maybe add 0.5% Shrek because of all the pop culture references
"i wish i had a different mom"
"sometimes i wish the same thing"
that line was really poorly written
it makes it sound like the mother wants a different mom too.
Me too...like she was out of control and her brother was a control freak.
47Cartoonguy well the chart says
47Cartoonguy so......the mom also wishes she that has a different mother?
mr. Wldasoldmysoul4pussyasateen I think it meant she wants a different son. The Mom's Mom is never brought up as far as I know.
I just read today that after this version of “The Cat in the Hat” premiered, Dr. Seuss’ widow actually imposed a BAN on further live action films based on his work.
Good call, ma’am
I agree that was the best idea in the history of ever because they made this a drug trip and a half
Tho the recent animated ones aren’t that great either
@@PunchCounterpunch_Lizzy the power of legal loopholes!
Well unfortunately, she died a month or so after 2018's The Grinch came out so it looks like Hollywood can probably do what they want with Suess's Books again.

"When did Marge Simpson mutate with Alfred E. Newman?"
On a similar but unrelated topic, both Things are voiced by Dan Castellaneta, the voice of Homer Simpson.
And Robot Devil from Futurama.
And they're played on screen by TWO sets of little girls! Wonder why?, Unless, two are actresses and the other two are stunt performers.
@@whenthemusicsover6028 Grandpa Phil
What!!!!!!! Nooo!!!!
You’re kidding right? 😱
What's scary about this movie aside from the imagery is the fact that _Universal Studios_ still has some merchandise of this.
Really? I went to Universal months ago and only saw regular Cat merch, I almost asked about the 2003 film, but they probably would've banned us.
I mean, I find it scarier that any merchandise of this disgrace to dumpster fires sold ANY merch...
Even many viewers were strongly offended how many adult jokes were in this movie.
Last year at my local comic book store i saw an old toy from the movie on display. It was a remote controlled S.L.O.W. And it had the cat in it. Which looked more like the one from the books.
It’s even weirder given that Warner Bros. is now in charge of movies based on Dr. Seuss.

What did Mr Krabs say in that one Spongebob episode?
Mr Krabs: The children? I don’t care about the children, I just care about their parent’s money. Ah, the fact that their feeble minds are easily manipulated by cheap playgrounds and talentless clowns is no skin off my nose.
That’s the producers of this movie.
Holy crap that's 100% accurate.

Fun fact dr seuss hated kids. Not a joke.
@@GageCeldonGeneSanchez-lq8ps I don’t know why but I found that kinda funny, even though I shouldn’t. Even getting a theme park section for kids in Universal studios is kinda comical.
@@rayzain7686 i know but is it bad that i think that this is better than the lorax. At least this follows the basics of the orginal. The lorax 2012 can go die in a hole.

I once heard someone say that "even if they dug up Dr. Seuss's body, strung it up in a tree and beat it like a piñata, they still wouldn't have been as disrespectful to his memory as this film". I agree.
I once heard that hyperbole is only cute in fiction, but in reality it is usually 10x worse. I agree.
Troy Wright I once heard that “trying to make yourself sound smart by using semi-complex sentence structure and vernacular while also spinning a persons joke on themselves only makes you look like a dick for no reason, especially if said person didn’t do or say anything wrong and you’re just trying to find a reason to assert authority in a situation that doesn’t require you to assert authority.” I agree.
Except it shows all of the themes of the book. The book isn't big enough to make into a full length feature film, so they use the IDEAS shown in the book and translate it into the film.
@@Keanuthelegend hyperbole/jokes are funny only in fiction.
HappyLarry polar express was also a small book but the new scenes integrated better in the movie than this.
I'm not sure who plays Evilina but she is beautiful. Also she does a good job with the expressions and reactions in these skits.

Critic's final monologue hit me right in the feels. Sitting here like, "Preach it brother!"
Suess' widow actually declared that there are to be no more live-action movies based on the works of Dr. Seuss, she hated Cat in the Hat so much.
Obsessor23 She has no taste
She has *good* taste
EmperorFaiz "good"
Thank God
Obsessor23 Thank God. I could not STAND another live-action Dr. Seuss movie.
16:43 For those unaware, due to copyright issues, they had to remove what makes this scene even more crazy than what can now be shown. When Cat gets hit in the nether region, he hallucinates himself swinging on a swing in a dress to the tune of Easy by Commodores while a unicorn whinnies in the background.
Now it’s just seems like poorly edited screaming.
Ohh I was wondering why they didn't show the actual clip
Don’t worry we all remembered what happened. Never forget.
Yeah I was wondering why it didn't show I remember watching this on a reaction channel and seeing this joke then I watched here and it was cut out and I was like.....what? Wait did my phone glitch went back and went yeah nope it was edited out
Oh I know that scene. I saw it on the DVD I have for this movie.
I may be an outlier here... but I actually like this movie more as an adult. I know it is by no means a good Dr. Seuss movie, but the almost meanspiritedness of it gets me chuckling. This feels like an adult swim version of the story and it actually a quite a fun ride now as an adult in a way it wasn't as a kid.
It would have worked better as a parody of the Cat in the Hat than a direct adaptation
It does feel like a robot chicken sketch.
Thats Funny 4:13
I watch it when i was 10 years old the most or 8 actually
@@matityaloran9157that’s how I feel about it. If you look at it not thinking about Dr Seuss it’s unironically hilarious, but if you look at it as an actual Seuss film it’s freaking awful
As a kid, I was scared of Mike Myers on The Cat in the Hat DVD case and never got to watch it. Thank the Lord I didn't watch it. My childhood was saved.
Aw man, lucky.
I found it funny some strange reason
I found in my attic once, in a dvd box.
You should have matched the Mike Myers in “Halloween” instead.
Did you hide it behind the shelf, too?
Seuss books knew how to talk to us like children but treat us like humans who could understand, learn, think, and feel. That's why we loved them so much. They didn't talk down to us.
Seuss's books should not be adapted to the big screen at ALL
Most of these books shouldn’t be adapted to the big screen like “A Wrinkle in Time”.
Well... It's complicated.
You put this perfectly
500th like!
The Horrible Cat Movie Trilogy:
1. The Cat in The Hat (2003)
2. Catwoman (2004)
3. Cats (2019)
Mother of God. It all makes sense now.
So thats what happened with that scene in the middle. He got hit in the jellicle balls
I know this is old, but in my opinion Cats wasn't so bad!
@@AnimeLover-lr3qx I think that it was the character design that threw people off. It’s kinda creepy. Not saying I did like the one however, just a hunch
Does the trilogy get better as it goes along? I still haven’t seen Cats (2019)

You gotta give credit to Doug Walker and to the other cast as well for watching these so we don't have too. Because to be honest, this movie is the pain that's literally a lain on which they didnt fall asleep too unlike everyone else would've.
Why do you idiots hate on this film like u love the original dr sues books the cat in the hat is a classic and funny as i swear by this film it’s brilliant
@@darthmummy7889 What. The. F***???
I feel like this film could literally kill somebody if watched it
Wrong the Cat in the Hat is one of the greatest horror movies ever.
Greatest Horror, not kids
It's a great horror movie and a terrible kids movie

When this video has more character development than the actual movie
and better jokes

Well, except for the muppet Count Dracula that pops up stating how many times Dr. Seus rolled in his grave every time a dirty joke is brought up in the film.

That existential crisis you have after the "hit in the nuts" scene was gold
I think I finally realized what makes Twitter users so batshit insane...
They grew up with movies like these.
*Simple as that.*
Okay,I never been on Twitter before...
So I'm not really sure.

finally someone who gets it
So the next time you need an media influence to blame.
Just give The reins of Dr. Seuss to the most talentless half of Hollywood.
And watch them render your children insane.

" If your house is messy you're fired."
Hmmmm a wrongful termination lawsuit sounds like a lot of fun.
Bold of you to assume there is law in the world of The Cat in the Hat.
@@willmanthorpe8437 Why else does the cat clean everything up at the end? He is concealing his crimes. He is whipping down the crime scene.
@@ryanlesner4716 he cleans up the house because he knows that if he doesn't, a couple of guys in cheap clip on ties will be at his door with nail-laiden baseball bats. He fears how cheap hitmen can be to hire.
@@willmanthorpe8437 The guys from pulp fiction then...
My mom only let us watch this movie in the Spanish dub (to make the viewing experience "educational") and after the movie ended she said, "The only thing you learned from this was how to say 'you're fired' (despedido) in Spanish!"
I've watched this review multiple times, and I love Doug's reasoning every single time. It's incredibly deep and nuanced, and can pretty much apply to any bad movie now and in the future.
That last bit is relevant considering that Seuss is getting cancelled.
Jokes on the SJWS --- -Dr Suess sales are skyrocketting xD
How do you cancel someone who is dead? He's long gone. Witch hunt over.
@@towelkit4651 What SJWs? LMAO it was Dr Seuss' book company who decided to pull off sales some rather unknown Dr. Seuss' book with "racially insenstive" depictions. Get over with this "cancel culture" scare.
How stupid and privileged are you? Dr. Seuss is not cancelled because his company called Dr. Seuss Enterprises have removed 6 obsure works of his which you might never heard of for having racial stereotypes which are And to Think That I Saw It at Mulberry Street, McElligot's Pool, If I Ran the Zoo, On Beyond Zebra, Scrambled Eggs Super and The Cat's Quizzer. What news I talked about is the same thing with Fox News brainwashed people of believing The Muppet franchise is getting "cancelled" because some episodes of The Muppet Show have a political correctness disclaimer on Disney+, Mr. Potato Head getting "cancelled" because the franchise has been renamed into Potato Head while going gender-neutral while still having Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head with redesigns, Pepe Le Pew getting "cancelled" because he got removed from Space Jam: A New Legacy after Charles M. Blow (columnist of The New York Times) tweeted three reasons of why he said Pepe Le Pew "normalized" rape culture in a column he created called Six Seuss Books Bore a Bias (which he also said Speedy Gonzales is a Hispanic stereotype and Mammy Two-Shoes from Tom and Jerry is an African-American stereotype) despite he is not a rapist himself and finally Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs getting "cancelled" after two people said the problem of Snow White's Enchanted Wish is Prince Charming kissing Snow White without consent which that was stupid for them by saying that.
@@staC-wh6ik Don't worry, he is privileged and why he Joe Biden as Hitler in his profile picture.
Animated Dr Seuss: Lovely, funny and actually faithful to source
Live action: Poop, butts, CG people. Also banned after the very next movie
The live action Grinch isn’t that bad.
irkenus The animated and live action are equally bad
Charlie Sketchman The ORIGINAL animated ones, the 2D ones are good. The 3D ones...not so much.
Wonder how Critic would react to Green Eggs and Ham on Netflix
That'd be interesting.
"Why does he look like a cat?"
".....Because he's a cat...."
That's me while babysitting. Sometimes I hate kiddos so much
his face was just like --- nostalgia.critic.exe has stop functioning -------
No
The original cat looks like an alien
@@jestershat66 But he still resembles a cat, doesn't he?
One of my most cherished memories is when my grandmother would read me Dr. Seuss. She didn't speak English well and learned to read English so she could read those stories to me.
This is one of the best if not THE BEST Nostalgia Critic review so far. He doesn't just review the movie, he exposes the problems with every bad adaptation of a kids book and gives us a deep meaning of what they trurly are meant to be
"Better than the last name we had: Super Hydrolic Instantaneous Transporter"
"Oh! You mean this movie!"
9! That's 9 times Dr. Seuss rolls in his grave! AH AH AH AH!
Ha ha what a funny and original joke
Sugar Honey Iced Tea from Madagascar was better tho.
@@konnorfoxworth9632 I've heard that phrase so many times but I'm only just figuring out what it means. Man, I'm stupid.
DR. Sueis under his grave: My wife and I disowned this movie and all of the rest of the other adaptations. JUST STICK TO THE BOOKS!
"but the chart says"
I think this is how DC movies are made
well the chart says...
"People don't know what's best for them and if you will give them the same crap they'll just keep asking for the same crap".
And that's how Marvel movies are made.
Nope, the chart is used for Michael Bay movies.
Lmao! simple minds like you make me feel better.
Honestly, the DC movies are so far from what the cooperate studio would actually creatively do with them it's not even funny. That's why they do the butcher edits at the last minute to try and force turn something well made into one of their cookie cut cash ins. Compare Watchmen and BvS theatrical cuts to their director's cuts, they aren't even the same movies.
"In the gricnh, everyone looked like a demon possessed hungry hungry hippo!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 my favourite Doug Walker line ever! And that's saying alot!
If I become a director, I would make a Dr Seuss movie that was respectful to the source material.
Cheers mate
One thing to note....Mike Myers was FORCED to play in this movie....So yeah, we had a missed opportunity for an "under contract" joke here from the Critic of old
He did those?
Cause the Dieter movie he wrote wasn’t good
It made me think even Seth McFarlane would`ve been a possible candidate for the Cat in the Hat because HE`S known for humor like that but the execs went with Mike Myers just because.
I’m also surprised Doug didn’t make a joke about the Piñata in the background with the cat’s likeness. It reminds me of the scene from Spawn where the Violator has his own car freshener. How that’s possible is never explained.
@@shadowspider9t was even so that they decided to have The Cat laugh over and over throughout the film mostly because Shrek laughs at his own jokes, as for this film, the took it too literally.
"Hey, you know when Mike Myers voiced Shrek? Every bit of humor and in-jokes made that film a huge success so lets see what he could do with THIS film! But don`t forget to add in pop culture references because no one else does it better than Mike Myers!"
Even The Simpsons made fun of this movie. Homer played The "Fat" in the hat and when he died he said "I'm scared of nothing not even hellfires just don't let me played by Mike Myers"
Heck that toh segment was actually far funnier than the entirety of this movie
Ikr
Some of my favorite NC episodes are the ones where he takes time at the end to explain why the subject is a good example of how NOT to do a thing in fiction. It’s like a creative writing class that I snuck into and didn’t pay for.
Each time I watch one of these reviews now, I think of how interesting it would be to see Doug make an editorial on Green Eggs and Ham. The title could be 'Where Green Eggs and Ham Went Right' or something along those lines.
Audrey Gisel the wife of Dr. Seuss himself said that she hated this movie so much. That there would be no more live action adaptations of the properties of Dr. Seuss. Thank the lord.
But the corporations had enough, they don't want this "ban" in place, so had her killed.
@@AnonymousFrogNG Now this is a conspiracy I can get behind
@@AnonymousFrogNGs it was mostly the producer`s fault.
Twilyx360 I'm imagining that Eveline as gaige from Borderlands and nostalgia critic as Leon from the remake of Resident evil 2
Twilyx360 and mike Myers hated it too
Universal did this
Hoping they'd make a billion.
But if Seuss were alive
Then this movie would kill him.
*clap clap clap*
Oh this killed him again
Qgain
20:05 If they included that toilet, using my pants would suddenly not be embarrassing at all.
And DreamWorks did this because of they made Shrek!
I love this episode! I hope the actress playing Evilina is doing well.
6:38 And that movie has a beautiful soundtrack!
Edit: Trust me if you seen the movie you would know what I'm talking about and trust me when they played the ending credits music I actually cry every time.
My mom never let me watch this movie as a kid...
Now I understand...
That’s a good parent
Same. I was also scared of him as a kid. He was just so freaky looking.
@@nathanharris6450 is that luke Skywalker's wife?
I think i actually had nightmares of this movie when i was a kid. **Shudders**
@@nathanharris6450 ayyyyyy!!!!!!
For a while I thought that
Mike Myers and Michael Myers were the same person 😂
Edited: wow thanks for the likes (:
do you think that it would of ironic if mike myers was played by micheal myers
or the other way around sorry i got them mixed up they have the same names
Jinx. Was.Here. Michael Myers would've made a better Cat in the Hat.
Dan Nigro yea that could of made the cat in the hat less creepy in this movie
Mike Myers really needs to do a Halloween spoof!
21:26 that's a good song. it's just a bad cover. it was originally a beatles song called getting better.
Judging by the thumbnail this movie is a brutal level
Jim Carrey did seem like he was trying to emulate the original Grinch performance but Myers' performance here just seems like a flimsy parody of the original Cat
He sounded like someone combined a Jewish mom, a cat, and mike Myers
You thought Mike Myers was scary in Halloween, you haven't seen this shit yet.
i agree. Jim Carreys truly did capture the essence of the grinch's character. his performance makes the film a guilty pleasure of mine
Seriously, he's just so *awkward* in that suit. He seems like a third-rate kid's birthday party clown who never watching himself in a mirror to see what his motions actually looked like to an audience. He's just Mike Myers doing Mike Myers schtick, but in a really bulky and unexpressive costume.
its sad. I love Wayne's world and the Austin Powers trilogy
They removed the part of the movie where the cat is in a dress on a swing with a unicorn from the review. Probably copyright issues but after watching this review so many times it was super confusing for a second. 😅
Could be, since I saw a clip with the "happy place" and it seems the song used was copyrighted.
They could have left it in, though, as this IS a critique.
Yeah I was so confused
I come back to this review sometimes because I really like it and it was super weird when the scene didn't happened xD
No wonder why I noticed it was gone. It all makes sense now
Thanks TH-cam, removing funny parts and stuff in videos from many channels due to copyright laws. The way TH-cam addresses this is so stupid, it’s downright nauseating. This is why people prefer Hulu, Netflix and even Amazon Video over TH-cam as a streaming service.
For as bad as the Grinch is, I will give it credit that it least it tried to have coherent story to compensate for all its inadaquencies, even if it's not told well it's there. Plus, the adult jokes in there compared to the Cat in the Hat were toned down at least and were kept to a minimum, and were used sparingly throughout the film. On top of that, it did at least tried to be faithful to the book andthe cartoon in some places like they were trying to adhere to the spirit of the book like the part where he goes to Whoville and steal Christmas and where he learns a lesson about Christmas not coming from a store, even if it's not done or told well it was there.
22:37 Peter Jackson fortunately understood this when making LotR
Came here from the Cats trailer. Looks like Mike Myers isn't the worst cat after all.
Mike Myers and the cats from Cats are related
Oh shit u right
Bella 13 Damn right
Patches O'Houlihan Oh who are we kidding, he still is.
Mmmm
I'll agree, Jim Carrey was actually DECENT as the Grinch, he did a good job
“Decent?” No, he was great as he always is
@@nsasupporter7557 at least he was consistent with what Seuss offered, to an extent
He literally carried the Grinch.
He did what he could given the circumstances. That's just the magic of Jim Carrey. I hope he has a good retirement.
He had a thing that this film did not had.
It called effort
I like the message that children's books are timeless
I agree with you, reading the books by Dr. Seuss is better than seeing the films based on the books.
NC's jokes can be hit and miss, but the "But the chart says" gag is iconic.
Man Jim Carey as the grinch was amazing. He owned that movie
Marina Syndulla Yeah he did. Because Jim Carrey is such a force of personality, and his voice for the Grinch was great too, even if it came across as a semi-Sean Connery type voice, he still made it his own. Although, the designs for the Who's, didn't look right at all, they looked kinda weird. But the dog and the little girl were cute. And, the message was STILL the same as in the original book and the classic animated movie. And, let's NOT forget that they ACTUALLY gave us a reason as to WHY The Grinch hated Christmas! They knew they didn't have to, but did anyways, and did it in a way that made sense. Plus, he's Jim Carrey, he could make almost anything work, dude/ma'am.
Same is my childhood movie
Hi am from 2019 and am hare to tell you that Jim Carey is back in the new sonic the hedgehog movie playing as egg man
Ya he rocked that movie it was *soooo good!*
@@shawnfields2757 dr eggman Jim carrey
that speech by critic is actually great
ToolCoolKid when doug.. I mean critic goes into his little rant and or speeches they're all really good.
I can't think of a single bad one.
ToolCoolKid to bad he was wrong about this movie fading from our memories
kishin Power but it didn't leave an impact like the book
Caleb Brazeau it left an impact both ways: the movie how NOT to make a dr suess movie, and the book was already explained
ilopominecrafter i meant it didn't leave nearly as big as an impression as the book
Omg! I loved the “We’ve got to have money!” Tony Jay clip and then the Cha-Ching clip! Great touch!
The thing about Seuss was that he understood that the extremes most children's material push are actually aren't practical and that moderation is usually the best option.

1. Instead of going to just stare at the sun I would’ve just taken a visit to dr. Seuss’ grave and just I’m sorry
2. What you said about people forgetting these movies is actually pretty true because before I saw this video I completely forgot that this movie even existed
10:57: “Pedo smile” and “happy-I-shit-my-pants” 😆
"D I R T Y H O E ! "
-Mike Myers
I’m sorry, baby, I love you!
“Eight! That’s eight times Dr. Seuss rolled in his grave! Ah-ah-ah!”
Time to die!
😑
*was using a hoe to make ground for my melons* HEY, YOU WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!
So wait, does that mean that Cat broke the 4th wall before Deadpool did.
CamtheBCVlogger _ a lot of characters did
+CamtheBCVlogger _ well, at least Deadpool did the first 4th wall break inside of a 4th wall break...I think
Kari Lari that is true
Protonimus Prime yes it does
fancy mcwiggles bob joe but she-hulk did it first
Poor Dr. Seuss,
this cat fell flat.
His widow wanted it family-friendly,
but Universal denied that.
Then Audrey Geisel, who didn't like what the film had in store, decided there shouldn't be live-action adaptations anymore.
Cat in the Hat, weak and flat.
This excuse of a movie is such a brat.
To be honest, that guy catching the girl as she falls may be the only decent scene in the whole movie 20:53
Did... did they really have to cut out the "getting hit in the balls so hard he ended up on a swing with a dress" because of copyright infringement??
Right?! I rewatched it today and directly recognized this is missing.
I thought my phone would play it wrong.
Probably because of the song they played during that scene in the movie.
hey you can see the cut. i remember that part
I thought it was cause of the song that played on that scene
Toonfield Animations yeah I saw that 2
Who else thinks sequel month should make a return?
Yeah, it should!
Hell yeah, that'd be awesome.
yeeees. Or a reboot/remade-month
Yes
Yes and Inspector Gadget 2 should be one of the reviews cause that movie is one of the worst pieces of shit I've ever seen
6 years later and these videos are still feel like they could have been posted yesterday.
Truly timeless.
And the original animated version had the characters speaking German and writing random letters and numbers on random things in the house.
This is the best film adaptation of Stephen King's It to date
M 17 yaaaass
What does IT have anything to with THIS movie?
@@Rgoidit's a horror film
23:12-24:13 That is one of the most beautiful speeches the Nostalgia Critic ever says that insults a bad movie. And he's right; stories like The Cat in the Hat had well thought morals, beautiful drawings and funny stories had helped shape our childhoods and given us great entertainment and I agree with him when he said when Dr. Seuss got it right, he got it right. And to be honest, The Grinch is the only live action adaptation that I like because it stayed true to the book, despite it having some adult jokes, but the thing I loved most is that Jim Carrey was funny and outstanding in this, whereas The Cat in the Hat doesn't stay true to the original story and has too much adult humor.
Agreed
Even Dr Seuss’s widow approved the Grinch movie, unlike this garbage
@@jay-2004 Did she?
@@KeeferJ yep! You can search up. And trust me, if she didn’t, we wouldn’t and shouldn’t got Cat in the Hat
@@KeeferJ I think she approved the Grinch, because despite some of its flaws, it still stay a bit faithful to the source material
I like it how Zubub A.K.A Devil calls critic just to say “What?!” When Critic said Mike Myers was not as funny as everyone used to think he was. 😂
I find mike myers to be hilarious! I love him as shrek and austin powers!
Okay, let's be fair here, some of the scenes in this film were hilarious.
"I'll get you, and I'll make it look like a bloody accident!"
"You're not just wrong, you're stupid."
"A little voice inside of me is saying, "This is a bad idea," but I can barely hear that little voice, because an even louder little voice is screaming, "Let the 12-year-old drive!""
Cats trailer: *looks like hell*
Cat in the hat: Finally a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
I understand your Kung Fu Panda reference.
Who looks more disgusting
Cat in the Hat vs. Cats
the cat in tHE HAT even if the Cats movie is crap, your own movie has bull who scat. The movie of yours literally has adult jokes, and mostly appeals to main stream rather than being fath full to Dr. Seuss.
the cat in tHE HAT b r u h have you even seen the penis joke in the movie. That’s how low your movie is. It’s not as bad as the Cats movie, definitely not, but I think even the emoji movie is better than yours.
Rachel: "Mr. Critic, is that what happens when Pepe Le Peu makes whoopie with Ronald McDonald?"
Critic: "Yes, yes it is..."
Rachel: "I'm afraid..."
Critic: "We all are..."
i have not slept after seeing him i can hear his laugh in my nightmares
MegaMetalManX
We were then and we are now
So glad I grew up with this channel, to make me appreciate real art. Nowadays seems like people like anything a corporations shits out no matter how lazy and contrived
Everything about this review Kinda reminds me of how everyone hates Teen Titans Go
One of my favorite reviews of his, anyone agree?
me
Being a suessi, yes
Yep
mine too. especially the beginning
I think it's my favorite, too...
14:49 “Honey, it was ruined when she bought it.”
We all cringed
Izaac Goudreau Reloaded I want to cut his fingers off
@@Bostonterrierslol at least his tail was
Yep...
U
Actually, what's cringe isn't the joke itself. If nobody laughed, it would have just ended and everyone would have forgotten it. It's that it gets dragged out in a total of six - yes, six - finger snaps.
20:36 Oh My God! it’s Paris Hilton!

Cancel Culture in 2021: *rly?*
There is no such thing as Cancel Culture attacking Dr. Seuss, it's because 6 obsure works of Seuss are removed from publication for having racial stereotypes by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, Inc. (Company of Dr. Seuss and his estate) and those are And to Think I Saw It at Mulberry Street, McElligot's Pool, If I Ran the Zoo, On Beyond Zebra, Scrambled Eggs Super and The Cat's Quizzer.
You want to know something about trying to make Dr. Seuss adult? His original stories sometimes had very adult topics and were done so subtly that I don't think even adults would catch onto. Yertle the Turtle was about Hitler. The Sneetches was about racism. The Butter Battle Book was about the Cold War.
Seuss was great at subtly and analogies. The first time I was told Yertle the Turtle was about that guy , it just hit me like a ton of bricks.
The racist anti-Japanese American cartoons were about...
Being a racist piece of crap
@@geoffreysorkin5774 Damn, you're right. Since he had *some* bad ideals, we should throw away the good ones.
@@bigsoda He was a racist xenophobe who hated American citizens because they looked different. He shouldn't be viewed as a all-knowing saint. He should be viewed as a children's book author who movies, no matter how bad are not sacrosanct in any way. Nothing in this movie is as offensive or HARMFUL to real people as his racist anti-Japanese propaganda cartoons that existed to excuse and cheerlead for putting American citizens into concentration camps.
@@geoffreysorkin5774 ...That was Dr. Seuss who made stuff like that? Really? Pics or didn't happen.
I personally think the kid's snappiness at his mom is justified.
She wants to send him to fucking military school. That's hell.
Try hyperbole? As for troy I guess I stand corrected.
Valerie Aust true..
Valerie Aust you have a point
Valerie Aust well the chart says

Unfortunately, Mike Myers is NOT the scariest black and white cat-man
James cordon holds that’s title in Cats
People at age 5: This is the greatest film ever
People at 13 or higher: This is the worst film ever
My teacher showed my 3rd grade class this movie, everyone kinda liked it. I, on the other hand, was absolutely scarred. I had to keep telling myself that it isn't real for the rest of the school day. Then a year or two later my family went to Universal Studios we went to the cat in the hat ride and I was scared that I'd have to go through the same experience again. Thank the lord it wasn't that!
Why were you scared of him?
Take a good look at his face for a good hour and you'll see
@@Sebas-bs8uk I'm horrified by him...😰
Seriously he looks like a petifile and a murderer
Well when your 9 years old and you see it it's pretty terrifying
“But by adding adult humour, we make it more adult, by adding modern dialogue we make it more timeless and by changing the source material we show how much we want to make it even better.”
You know, it’s amazing, you are 100% wrong. I mean nothing you’ve said has been right.
Thank you
Uhhh you shouldve said you arent wrong ur stupid
For a second or 2 I was confused.
Was that last bit a quote from _The Great Muppet Caper_ ?
Change is always good. Any time you add something, you take something else away.
16:43 *Rest in peace: Context*
Thanks, copyright.
Not going to lie these old Nostalgia Critic videos just hit different all these years later
Nick: i wish for another mom.
Mom: I wish the same!
Me: wait his mom wants another mom?
Nathan Couto
So I'm not the only one confused about that
True
It's not the actor's fault, blame the writers
of coarse we're blaming the writers but the actor didn't have to get a role in The Cat in the Fucking Hat.@@ALotofTomFoolery
She's probably referring to a younger her when she was about his age. Maybe she hated her mom back then as well? Or she's just referring to her son and it's just a weird wording choice.
