The siblings get into the Christmas spirit of anger after watching the live-action Cats for now the second time. What is up with the discrepancies in cat anatomy? Why does the CGI still look like a college student did it even though this is allegedly the "fixed" cut of this movie? Which renowned actor has the worst part? Is this whole movie a butt crime? All these questions and more, we will answer on Weird Cinema.

Ugh. This movie. We discuss how movies change when you are a kid vs. when you are an adult, the title character's utter insanity, what you could get away with in the 90's.
