Catwoman want chicken! Catwoman want liver! Meow-mix, Meow-mix, please deliver!
Cats… so many cats. Cats to the left of me and cats to the right! There’s so many of them! Oh the humanity! I don’t know why I typed that, I just I needed some introduction to go off and I couldn’t think of one. But there’s cats alright in the movie Bucket-Heads, as many as there are cat references. Today’s focus:
FELINE REFERENCES!!!
I just want to state this right now; I have no problem with the “meow” and “PURRfect” references that were used in the movie. Though the way Ms Berry said them was terrible, on the account that she can’t act, I did not have a problem with them. I expected her to say at least “meow” or “PURRfect” once or twice as the other Catwomen have said it in other films / television shows. Its somewhat of a trademark of the Catwoman character.
But the way they tried to reference EVERYTHING that a cat does in this movie was way over the top. There are so many cat references in this film; I’m just going to list them. Then you will see why after watching this movie you’ll grow to hate everything about cats. (Well not me I love cats, but I hate this film). Let’s kick off the list!
Addicted to Catnip: Yes you read that right. See after Patience is reborn with the powers of a cat, a crazy cat lady comes up to her and hands her one of those cat-toy balls with catnip in it. Patience goes crazy for the thing and rubs her face with it. I’m not making this up, watch it if you dare. It would have been GREAT if she snorted lines of the stuff though.
Hissing & Meowing at Dogs: I don’t think I’ll need to go beyond this. Enough said here.
Desire for collars: Well not real cat/dog collars, but a huge, thick diamond necklace that looks like a collar. I bet a lot of people wouldn’t have gotten that reference but I did and I found it just as lame as the other cat references in this movie.
Eatting cat food: Again, I am NOT making this up. Patience has developed a taste for cat food. She sits around her apartment talking on the phone eating can after can of delicious feline chowder. And what better beverage to wash it down nah with a nice, cold glass of…
MILK!: That’s right, just as predictable Patience has become addicted to milk like a crack-addict addicted to, crack. I’m pretty sure she drinks it like a cat at one point. There is a great, and by great I mean stupid, scene in the movie when she walks into a bar and orders a white Russian, no vodka and kahlua. So the bartender gives her a shot of milk, I swear to God he gives her a shot of milk.
Looking at fish: Patience develops a fascination with watching fish in a tank, just like any other cat would. Not only does she want to eat the little fishies in the tank but when served sushi, she devours the entire tray, cause she loves fish. See how creative that is?
All this and more happens throughout the movie, not counting all of the lame cat-related quotes that Catwoman says, (eg. “Cat’s come when they feel like, not when they’re told!”). I think the only thing that Catwoman did not do was catch a mouse and stalk a mousehole for hours on end. That would have been great to see.
I really hated this movie for all of listed cat referenced features. They went totally overboard with it getting to the point where it was just totally lame, and damn pathetic. It’s funny, I remember one movie critic said that the character of Catwoman was a very, powerful one. Powerful how!? She eats cat food, orders shots of milk at bars and hissing at dog for crying out loud! I mean what the hell!? Seriously!
On that note, we end this topic for today. Tune in tomorrow for the final nail in the coffin when we take a look at the one and only, Catwoman and see how much she really does fill the bucket.
I wish she tried to jump off a building and land perfectly on her legs like real cats do, but instead she just lands on her neck and dies. Now that would have saved this movie.
