It may be my bizarre concept, but I think it suits the song (not saying it's good) since Gus is meant to be a wash up but still respected. The music reflects someone putting their best but fumbling along the way.

I understand the sentiment here, but actually it usually IS the other way around with professional theatre. To a degree (key phrase), the orchestra is supposed to follow the performer, especially if they make a mistake or skip something or fall out of time. But you are correct; if the music is not being performed live, then have the actors sing along to a track or a metronome, at least. It is such a disaster to have the orchestra and conductor memorize how the actors randomly decided they were going to perform for that given take and try to follow along.

Oh! So it is. That's the kind of stuff the 1998 stage version is full of, because there's only one set and there's multiple chorus cats there pretty much all the time, so there's always something going on in the wings or the back of the frame. That's the beauty of live theater, since it lets you look past center stage and peek at all the stuff going on in the side.

So, I have listened to the musical version a lot lately and having Gus sing without Jellylorum really changes the tone of the song. This is much more "braggy," which dilutes the power of the song. In the original it was kind of ambiguous how much of what Gus claimed about his past was true, but he clearly had left enough of a mark that the older cats still remembered him and his career, even if the younger cats had never heard of him. Here you don't get that feeling. Musical Gus is a relic, Movie Gus is not.
@hatientacetlen4246
@hatientacetlen4246 Год назад
Yeah it sort of clashes because he sounds at once like he's bragging about his achievements but also mocking himself at the same time. And he also sounds a bit like he's lost his mind with some of the ways he uses third person, like a confused old man having an episode. They should have changed the song way more if they wanted him to sing it.

Getting really tired of this notion that speak-singing is a more "natural" and "compelling" way of conveying a character's emotions in song. The music and lyrics were specifically MADE to convey exactly what they are feeling. Seeing a professional actor sing the song in key and on beat WHILE giving a good performance is a huge part of why people enjoy musicals. Anyone can sing offbeat and off-key, which is why having actors do it just mangles the song without adding anything of worth. I love Ian McKellen, but I hope the failure of this movie keeps Hollywood's craving for "realism" away from musicals.
@jodo__
@jodo__ 2 года назад
Sondheim said he looked for actors who could sing, not singers who could act. Some of the most fantastic renditions have strong emoting, but are created together and rehearsed. Forcing the piano and the orchestra to follow only the actor, in absence of the musical structure, broke this performance. It could have been fantastic. McKellen's performance could have been great.

they may have butchered the songs, but Sir Ian McKellen as Gus... 👌 Brilliant casting choice for multiple reasons: He is the right age, he has the right presence and theatre these days is definitely not what it used to be when he was in his prime, so doubtless some of the feelings he was having were genuine... Poor guy.

This highlights Ian's prowess as an actor, and also is kinda ironic. He sings about how kittens don't respect older ways of doing things. This movie is a prime example of how new effects like CGI don't always make movies good. Cats is such a great musical partly because of all the practical elements. Yet this movie strips the musical of that. This is the best song in the movie imo. Thank you Sir Ian Mckellen. You managed to bring about one of the few things in this movie I liked.

Remember; everyone were singing live. It's all authentic. I've grown up with cats, my birthday present was tickets to Cats. My father and I went alone to the movies to watch this, and we both cried. There are of course things I would have changed (mungojerrie and rumpelteazer is way better in the original), but it's still good, and most of you just say it's bad because it's basically a meme to call it bad. It's so sad that people don't have their own opinion..

There are so many musical issues with this movie, besides how they screwed over the CGI department for something that was the direction and design faults. And I would love to get into it, but Sideways explains it so much better that I ever could. So I would recomend watching his video of "Why the Music in Cats (2019) is Worse than you Thought"

Amazing! I love him as an actor, I feel it's very relatable to him as an actor in his old age. I love sir McKellen's version, I really like the emotion that the original Broadway version gave.... But I feel that Sir McKellen is relating more to being an ol' theater cat. I really wish he would have brought forward the fear feeling that the Broadway version did. ( if you haven't seen the original Broadway version, it actually has someone dressed up that comes in the background and it has lit up eyes and stuff when he references the character... Loved it)

Ian was one of the best parts of this movie. He is no singer but he actually sounded decent here, and I think this was one of the best songs of the entire movie. This movie is bad, but not nearly as bad as others made it out to be. To me, it is a guilty pleasure so bad it's good movie for me. The singing I enjoyed, the acting was pretty decent, it was just the CG, humor and story I didn't like.

There are only two cats in this whole movie that have the faces to actually make it look like they belong on their body. Number one being Gus the theater cat and skimbl shanks the railway cat. Honerable mentions go to Deuteronomy and mustopholies. Ironically the two good looking ones also happen to be two of the five good scenes in this whole movie. The other three being memory (end varient), Victoria's entry, and last but not least macavity musical number purely for who they got to sing it clearly having the I do not care what I look like face during the whole time she was on screen. Anyone got anything to say on what I just said?

I feel so sorry for Ian Mckellen, but his singing is so bad, Jesus, the original song was like a beautiful and heartbreaking lullaby about an actor that's now past his prime, and yearns for the past, and that lullaby feel came mostly from the beautiful voice of Jellylorum.
