[Why is this being made?](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0331632/) (Note: The posters at [IMDB.com](http://IMDB.com) seem to be baffled by this as well.)

Still, Tim Blake (Delmar) Nelson is in it. So it might not be _completely_ awful.

$154 Mill on the gross may also play into their decision.

I’m so hoping my kids won’t want to see this one, too! But, I guess it can’t be worse than Spy Kids 3-D—mmmmm, best nap I’ve had in years!

Oh, I’m sure it’ll be terrible. But a friend of mine is playing a bad guy named Miner 49er in the film. So, good for him.

There’s no plot to the _Cat in the Hat_ book, so how do you make TWO movies out of it? It takes 5-10 minutes to read, so…

Oh, why am I bothering?

I don’t understand people why so many people hated the first movie. It’s just like the cartoon, didn’t they see that first? If so, why would they go to see a movie based on something they probably also hated? The mind boggles.
