Seth Rogen took to Twitter last night, in honor of the Cats film being released digitally, to live-tweet his reactions to the film while stoned.
"I'm pretty stoned and watching Cats," he tweets. "I've never seen the broadway show. It is truly trippy. Am I supposed to know what a Jellicle is?"
I'm pretty stoned and watching Cats. I've never seen the broadway show. It is truly trippy. Am I supposed to know what a Jellicle is? They've said it 200,000 times but I don't know what's happening haha.

Rogen goes on to comment that Judi Dench "looks the most cuddly" and Ian McKellen "just straight up has normal fingers" among more ever-profound observations like "Some cats in pants. Some no pants."
He also comments on the scale of the film, saying "The behind the scenes features, which are amazing, said the set is 2.5 times scale but that would mean cats are like 60 pounds in real life!"
Also the scale is bizarre. The behind the scenes features, which are amazing, said the set is 2.5 times scale but that would mean cats are like 60 pounds in real life!
