Depends...there was a scene where the Cat looks at a picture of a woman (The kid's mum?) and his hat sorta pops up. But kids shouldn't read into it.

Well...that's not so bad. I suppose we've seen worse from Pepe. I just heard that there were some "falic" things referenced.

I'm surprised this got a green light. I seem to recall reading that Audrey Seuss Geisel was so unhappy with the previous movies, that she would never give permission for another. Truthfully, I would've loved to see SEUSSICAL get a CG movie treatment, but that's me...

Is it true that "Cat" was not kid-friendly? I heard that there was a lot of innappropriate adult things in it.
For a kids' movie, it WAS a little edgy...really it just a bunch of mild innuendos and double entendras (sp?), oh, and on the DVD commentary, director Bo Welch and Alec Baldwin swear.

YEah, even Jim Carrie apologized for all the commercialism. What was Mrs. Sucess Thinking?
