Ripped straight out of the pages of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel to the screen full of classic silent era acting and legendary effects by Willis O'Brien, what more can you say about this classic? Well, it's time to enter THE MONSTER ZONE and find out!

235: The Cat in the Hat (2003)

After the success of THE GRINCH, Hollywood wanted more live-action Seuss adaptations. With that we got 2003's THE CAT IN THE HAT. 

With production designer Bo Welch at the helm and comedy superstar Mike Myers in the lead, why did this one fall apart? Why haven't we gotten another live-action adaptation since? Well, I think it's time to put on our big hat and talk a lot about that, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.
