Cats have other organs participating in taste to compensate: https://www.cathealth.com/nutrition/do-cats-have-a-sense-of-taste

Cats are more concerned with texture and scent than flavor. Look it up, nizzle.

But, if we can count the number of taste buds... can't we account for taste?

I took my daughter.. didn't expect much but it entertained us both enough. People are just hating cause the concept is stupid.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

It's not just the concept. It's literally everything about the film other than the animation.

i mean... there's a couple things.

I wonder if it's just a small tongue? They may have a larger variety of receptors, and actually taste more. What do you think?

Cats are hypercarnivores so they don't need to taste sugar. They also eat trash so they probably need fewer taste buds.

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

I remember reading that it was the other way around; the hypercarnivory evolved because they lost the ability to taste sugars.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I strongly doubt their digestive tracts changed to accommodate a change in taste buds.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Nah, it's more complex than that. A mutation in the gene coding for the taste buds caused them to lose a taste for sugar; because of this1/?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

they stopped eating things that had it and focused more on carnivory. The most successful ones were the ones that had adaptations 2/3

Cats seem to use their heightened sense of smell and Jacobson’s organ to compensate for their lack of taste buds.

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

Humans are the only mammal with more receptors & brain power for processing taste than smell. Also the only ones who cook. Except dragons.

That movie somehow managed to break even AND make a profit.

and this is why hollywood keeps making shit. people pay real money to go see it

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I know a bunch of people who saw it. Every person was curious to see if it was as a bad as everyone was saying. I was tempted I admit

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Its stupid AND genius. The kids want to see it because they're stupid so the parents end up taking them and paying for 2 tickets minimum.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

When it's hot out and it's the only kid movie in theaters, it will make money.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Probably from up charging the critics. They knew heat was up.

Imagine the average idiot. Then remember, the distribution of people has 50% of humanity below that line.

That's because Imagine produces cheaply animated, lowest-common-denomination films to rake in cash from parents of small children.

A large youtuber (jacks films) spent months hyping it up for a joke. He got invited to the premiere. He would have caused a few 1/2

I know too many people that went to see the movie just to see how bad it was. They did not see the flaw in that plan.

I feel it. That's why you pirate it later. Get your chuckle, keep your money

There are a lot of cats in this world. It is a mystery how they paid the ticket to the cinema though.

Drugs. Specifically catnip.

They stole, robbed and tipped people over cliffs for money.

Almost all of them used a movie ticket app called "Meowvie Nite". The rest paid with cash tied in a cute bow onto their collars.

Sounds like a puuuurrrrrty useful app

If it made a profit, it's not breaking even then, right?

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 4

It had to break even before it could profit

I think that's the gag. "You know how Circuses have a skinny guy and a fat guy? My Dad's both, 'because he's super talented!"

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I think he meant to say it broke even and THEN made a profit

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 2

As opposed to making a profit first?

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

so far its made 81 million with a "Budget" of 50 million. so its real Budget was 100 million after marking cost.

Not to mention that the studio doesn't get 100% of the ticket sale value. Closer to 50%. 30% for international.

I worked at a movie theater. Kid movies were the worst. You get used to finding dirty diapers along w sticky floors covered in popcorn. Wtf

That's still the parent's fault, and everyone spills popcorn.

Because then the idiots who would pay get to watch it for free. Oh i didn't mean "end user" pirate i meant "distribute" pirate.
