        And the extreme generosity of both those scores relies entirely on the train wreck factor.

        I’ve literally seen worse. (I’ve avoided Cats, though. )

      Musical fans were baffled at the attempt to shoehorn a plot into it. Musical innocents were baffled at the lack of plot. Everyone agreed that the CGI cat costumes were creepy and Jennyanydots peeling off her skin was creepier.

      And I know that part’s in the musical, but in the musical it is very obviously a coat!

        It sort of almost makes sense when you remember that the source material is not in fact any kind of story. It is a book of poetry, where the poems are generally not directly related to each other.

        So, if you want to think of it this way, it’s something like a hundred twenty one-page stories, generally working by dream-logic instead of any kind of objectively sane causality?

        Trying to impose a plot on the movie was, at best, a non sequitur.

        The play always had a plot. (same as the movies) I saw it live in the 80’s.

    Why would he have told her about a dream he had?

      Because it was the first dream without electric sheep?

    Then Pavane *is* the “I’m coming for you” thing that’s been haunting Our Heroes for awhile.

      Yeah, we’ve known that for a while. It was made explicit during the zombie mob sequence.

    Question One: Why would Aimee’s infosec protocols block Pavane’s access to their dreams?

    Question Two: Does this reveal narrow down the timeframe for the events of “The Dreadful Future” to no earlier than 2019?

    Question Three: So it’s imperative for Pavane to contact all/b> non-human sapients and The Daughters of the Air concur? Much like Sirius had to address all dogs on Earth in “The Starlight Barking”?

      Question Four: How does Baron Mistycorn dream? Does he somehow sleep for some unknown reason? Wouldn’t he disable that functionality if he had it, since it would cut into his video game time?

        Oh, he’s not sleeping- Pavane contacted him while he was playing LSD Dream Emulator. (Or possibly NiGHTS Into Dreams.)

      If the solution to the war is to evacuate all the non-humans to Groovetron, A-Sig wins by default.

    If your infosec protocols are so impenetrable, how are you able to watch recently released films?
