Anti-Semetic???

How could this have been anti-semetic? There's no explanation. --Jnelson09 23:12, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article is bad as hell.

I agree, and very one-sided as well Naysie 08:59, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you guys too-terrible article. How the hell is a woman in her underwear a mature theme btw? For crying out loud-there's tons of male content like that in Y7 cartoons... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.187.192.111 (talk) 05:03, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reaction

the last line of the opening paragraph refers to ebert and roeper's critique of the film. why is this not included under reactions? Citizenjamesford (talk) 19:14, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cameos

excluding paris hilton, none of these should qualify as cameos. cameos are short or unexpected performances by established performers or relevant people at the time of the production. if someone becomes famous years later you can't retroactively make that a cameo (richard dreyfus in THE GRADUATE, alfred molina in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, samuel l jackson in EXORCIST III). those are just starting actors in small parts before they were famous. if they were given bigger parts, they would have taken them. cameos are bruce willis in OCEANS TWELVE, sean connery in ROBIN HOOD PRINCE OF THIEVES or ted danson in SAVING PRIVATE RYAN.

i looked up all of these people on IMDB exlcuding hilton and the voice-over actor, none of these had done anything noteworthy at the time the film was made. Citizenjamesford (talk) 19:20, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Messing with Character Names!

I know that in most of the Cat in the Hat books, the girl's name is Sally, and the boy's name is not revealed, but come on! Conrad? The writers of this movie must have not read Dr. Suess' book, "Oh Say, Can You Say Dinosaur?" That book clearly revealed that the boy's name was Dick. I guess I can understand if they thought the name, "Dick", was a little scatalogical, I can understand, but I really think they could have come up with a more suitable name than Conrad! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.234.218.135 (talk) 19:30, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
