I remember seeing this film in theaters when I was younger mainly because I was interested in how Dr. Seuss’ works being adapted into full-length motion pictures.
I also remember hating this film back when I was younger because of all the dumb adult jokes and inappropriate innuendos that I could not comprehend or understand as if the film doesn’t know it’s supposed to be a clean and fun family-friendly film based on one of Dr. Seuss’ most beloved works, not a more adult parody of one of his works.
I am glad that this film bombed and that Seuss’ widow pulled the plug on more live-action Dr. Seuss films being made.
It’s probably for the best that Bo Welch went back to production design after this film bombed. Production design is clearly where he’s most comfortable. And that’s certainly where he excels. In fact, Welch has been nominated for three Academy Awards for his work in production design, for 1995’s A Little Princess, 1996’s The Birdcage, and 1997’s Men in Black.
