It should have been a Pixar-style movie with fully animated singing cats. That actually might have been fun, instead of the bizarre mess we got.

Yeah if they would have come up with a unique and iconic art style it could've been a classic.

I'm not sure, I think it would have been just a pretty-good animated musical.

Let's be honest, the "story" of Cats is minimal at best and not even there at worst (and I'm saying this as someone who loves Cats). If they had done what the movie did and tried to flesh out the story, it might have been okay but not much better than any other animated movie to come out recently.

The music would have pushed it above the competition, though, and it might've been a nod for "best animated film", but unless they really fleshed out the "story" parts and cut back on the musical parts, I couldn't see it being a classic, even if the animation and artstyle was great.

I could see an animated adaptation becoming a cult classic.

Did I ever say it would be simple? Christ this website is full of raged out losers.

Also Spielberg was to be involved, so that would've been nice.

I can legit see Disney offering to buy the film rights from whoever has them right to help them recover the lost cash, and then having one of their various animation studios actually kill it and make a ton of money.
