32 (DIS)HONORABLE MENTION: Cats

(#25) The next time you see a discussion about how 2019 was an amazing year for cinema, keep this in mind: There were 24 films scoring even lower than Cats. Moviegoers have been allergic to the digital-fur-enhanced musical through its opening week, making it one of (if not the) biggest box office flops of the year in addition to being an object of ridicule.

“I truly believe our divided nation can be healed and brought together as one by Cats — the musical, the movie, the disaster. In other news, my eyes are burning. Oh God, my eyes.” —Ty Burr, The Boston Globe
