The Scat In The Hat

      This blog fully expected that Mike Myers' The Cat In The Hat would be a bad movie, but it didn't quite imagine the reviews would be this bad. Ouch. Most of the reviews I read posited the dreadful possibility of follow-up films to this. Please, please-- no.

Addendum:

Finished a NYTimes Crossword Puzzle from some time ago called "Green Eggs and Hamlet." This verse at the centre of the puzzle is perhaps worth invoking here:

I do not like my dad's brother
Poisoned king, wed my mother.
I let them think that I am mad--
Oops I stabbed Ophelia's dad!
Nobody helps me in my plight,
Now Laertes and I will fight.
Swords are switched in a jam:
A theatrical ending, Ham I am.
