However well a Warrior Cats movie would do with book fans and critics, you know there’d be the suburban mom who write a bad review because she didn’t look up anyting about cat watership down and took her seven and eight year old to see a cute movie about cats but instead of getting them to shut the fuck up for an our and moving on with their lives Timmy is traumatized and crying and Kaileighghlaugh has inducted all the other neighborhood kids into a cat cult
….okay, someone needs to explain Warrior Cats to me…
there are cats. a lot of cats dont like each other. some cats can see the future and other magic shit. they fight a lot over food and romance and stuff. the book series follows multiple generations of cats and different perspectives but the general theme is that the cats have different jobs and they have babies and do battle
This is a good explanation, but massively undersells the sheer scale of Death and Suffering also going on. People don’t call it Cat Game of Thrones or Cat Watership Down for no reason. Someone dies at least once a book. Kittens die far too often for my comfort, frankly. Ferncloud’s kits starving to death during the New Prophecy arc will fuck me up for life. Sometimes cats just die fuckin out of nowhere for no damn reason. No one is safe! Bam, a snake pops out of a rock and bites them. Bam, they slipped on a mountain path and plunged to their death. Bam, an eagle swooped out of fuck all nowhere and carried them off. Bam, they fell through the ice while playing on the lake. Bam, they drank fucking car battery fluid, or ate yew berries, or just walked into the wrong tunnel and were never seen again- ALL OF THESE ARE CANONICAL DEATHS. SOME OF THOSE HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE. And honestly those are all fairly tame ones, more shocking because they happened suddenly when you weren’t expecting it! The really grisly ones, like the two apprentices that get mauled by dogs, or Scourge’s fight with Tigerstar, or Hawkfrost and the fox trap? Those linger. They take their time describing the viscera. If you want to know the scope of the ridiculous amount of dying that goes on in Warrior Cats, just check out the ‘Members of Starclan’ category on the fan wiki. Starclan is the cat afterlife. There are three hundred and eleven pages under the Members of Starclan category. Warrior Cats does not fuck around.
