The Funniest Tweets about the Cats Movie Trailer

Here is the trailer for the upcoming movie based on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats musical. Warning: looking at it for too long might drive you insane.

I have nothing else to say about that. I don’t know what anybody could say about that. That’s ironic, yes, because this entire piece is just a collection of what people have had to say about this trailer. That’s the power of the Cats trailer: It simultaneously leaves you speechless while also driving you to tweet about it incessantly.

If this messed up world doesn’t kill us first, Cats will clearly finish the job when it opens on Dec. 20.

Here are the best tweets about Cats. They’re all perfect and yet all somehow lacking. Making fun of Cats is the easiest thing in the world but it’s also truly impossible. Nobody can make fun of Cats because Cats is utterly impervious to everything. Never has humanity made something that’s so thoroughly unconcerned with whether anybody in the world actually asked for it or not. That confidence is so charming, so commanding, that it somehow made Cats one of the hugest musicals ever. Cats doesn’t care if we like it or not, and that’s why so many people love it.

Anyway, read the tweets, already.

Please stop saying the plot of Cats is confusing. The plot of Cats is that they’re cats and they introduce themselves until one of them gets permission to die.

That Cats trailer looks like SNL gave The Lonely Island 30 million to shoot the stupidest Digital Short they could imagine.

Is our reaction to Cats gonna be the thing that unites us in these broken days?

How did you get real cats to do all this

I will give the Cats movie credit for one thing, they managed to make one of the all time stupidest musicals even stupider.

I don’t know why you’re all freaking out over miniature yet huge cats with human celebrity faces and sexy breasts performing a demented dream ballet for kids.
— Louis Virtel (@louisvirtel) July 18, 2019

Just read the plot of Cats on Wikipedia and it is like somebody tried to transcribe a dream seconds after waking up from wisdom tooth surgery.

If we can get the cast of CATS to storm Area 51 everything will work out

Two hours of James Corden running around, “Look at meeeeee! I’m a cat! Ha ha!”

I truly admire the Cats movie for not deviating from the creepy, ostentatious, and insufferable vision of the Cats Broadway play
— Matt Oswalt (@MattOswaltVA) July 18, 2019

Idris Elba in Cats? More like “string or bell”!
— Justin Shanes (@justinshanes) July 18, 2019

On the optimistic side, I CAN imagine these cats eating someone’s face off after they die.

Cats is going to be the greatest movie of all time

Disgusting to know that many of my followers are currently masturbating to the Cats trailer
— pixelatedboat aka “mr tweets” (@pixelatedboat) July 18, 2019

If I am dating you and you are checking my Twitter LOOK AWAY NOW. It’s going to be a lot of deeply repellent “Cats” content for a few days.
Or at least remember me as you knew me then, not as you see me meow.

I’m unfollowing everyone not tweeting about CATS.

the cats movie is going to singlehandedly revive the “i saw a movie while drunk or on drugs here is my piece on it” industrial complex and I am HERE to be a COG in the MACHINE

Anyway, who wants to get high with me and watch Cats on Christmas Day?
— Desi (@DesiJed) July 18, 2019

Erin Ryan (@morninggloria) probably has the best single thread about it. Enjoy.

Is this like the Jeffrey Epstein’s hedge fund of Hollywood movies in that everybody involved did something horrible and was blackmailed into it
— Erin Ryan (@morninggloria) July 18, 2019

you buy the cast a bed. the cast falls asleep in an amazon prime day box you meant to take to the recycling. the cast stays there all day and into the night. at 4 am, you wake up to the cast extending a single claw into your scalp, over and over again.
— Erin Ryan (@morninggloria) July 18, 2019

you’re never quite sure if the cast loves you or depends on you or, if in the cast’s mind, there’s any difference. one day you realize the cast is getting old and every day you think of your life without the cast, and you want to weep
— Erin Ryan (@morninggloria) July 18, 2019

the cast looks at you, gives you a long blink, and licks its own asshole
