The Cat in the Hat (live-action)

The Cat in the Hat is the titular character of the 2003 live-action film of the same name. He is played by Mike Myers who also played Austin Powers and Shrek, both much better characters.

Why He's Loathsome

 * 1) He is an incredibly poor representation of Dr. Seuss' best known character of all time.
 * 2) He is very vile and sadistic.
 * 3) He says some pretty unsuitable and improper things that would practically make Dr. Seuss flip in his grave. For instance he said "Son of a-" meaning that he swore, except that part was edited during production. Yes, this is not a joke.
 * 4) He has a very creepy character design.
 * 5) He has a very annoying laugh, one he uses over and over again as a poor attempt at comedy.
 * 6) He dresses up in women's clothing multiple times.
 * 7) He taunts the kids he's trying to help.
 * 8) He lusts over a picture of the protagonists' mother at one point, which technically makes him a zoophile.
 * 9) He flat-out admits he planned the whole day (minus chopping his tail), including Sally and Conrad almost being killed!

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He later became a meme, as pictured above.
 * 2) He got a taste of his own medicine when Sally and Conrad scolded him for what he did.
 * 3) He at least did redeem himself near the end by helping Sally and Conrad fix his mess in the house before their mother came home.
 * 4) He can be a bit funny in a few scenes.
 * 5) He's not as bad as another certain annoying live-action feline.
