by Meg on March 5, 2008

Holy Production Values, People. This one’s called: "Cat of 1000 Faces: Episode 1." Obvy, we’re greenlighting another 23 episodes.

Rys K., Nice YouTube-Pointer-Outering!

I think the best one was ‘cat with a rack’. A new category perhaps…?

2 Edward 03.05.08 at 2:15 pm

I could honestly watch cats bat at things all day. Is that odd?

3 Wendy 03.05.08 at 2:19 pm

INCREDIBLY clever!

4 Theo 03.05.08 at 2:19 pm

b’AAAAAAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA HA HA HA HA HAAAA [hiccup!] AHahahahaahaaaa…

5 Maggie 03.05.08 at 2:19 pm

amusing, not amazing. The boobies were funny.

6 Theo 03.05.08 at 2:22 pm

Also, “Rys K.” is a fanTAStic screen name.

7 Nekussa 03.05.08 at 2:25 pm

A ha ha!! I think it’s amazing that the cat put up with as much of that as he did instead of batting at every dangling temptation. ;)

8 Beth E. 03.05.08 at 2:28 pm

Awesome!! Highly amusing. Well filmed, great editing. I give it a 10. Academy Award material for sure.

9 Marly 03.05.08 at 2:35 pm

And it has a MOO Egg in the end!! i dind’t want to search for the moo eggs and here there is one just dropping on my lap. now i have to search the other 5…

10 Marianne 03.05.08 at 2:37 pm

Wonderful! I love it.

11 Melinda 03.05.08 at 2:40 pm

Really funny and slightly cheesy with the “I’m in the mood for love” soundtrack, I really liked it, and glad the kitty got some head scritchies for his participation!

12 Theresa 03.05.08 at 2:49 pm

“Those Mouse ears are bad enough– but that TinTin hair– Up with that I shall not put!”

13 Heathers dead baby 03.05.08 at 2:50 pm

eh….
i think your all mercy lol’ing like when a retarded child ties his shoes

14 Theo 03.05.08 at 2:54 pm

Strong in The Farce is our Theresa.

15 Seven Paws 03.05.08 at 3:02 pm

Poor Hugo! He has that sort of tolerant but put-upon face I frequently get from my own tabby boy. But I admit I was LOL watching this. Good thing no one else is in the office yet!

16 DebbieH 03.05.08 at 3:07 pm

This cracked me up! Some people get such interesting ideas!!

17 MandaBain 03.05.08 at 3:10 pm

Awe.Some.
Paw.Some.
OMGCATBOOBIES!!!11!

18 tesstricks 03.05.08 at 3:11 pm

Certified grade A awesome.

19 Beth 03.05.08 at 3:15 pm

Hilarious. Well done.

20 Holy Cuteness 03.05.08 at 3:19 pm

Haha, great video, love it…

21 ThreeCatNight 03.05.08 at 3:31 pm

The Thousand Faces of Dr. Meow

22 charliewabba 03.05.08 at 3:33 pm

OH, I Luuuuuuuuuuurve the Woody Allen face.
Hugo is the Zelig cat!

[Damn, I was kinda hoping nobody would notice that part... - Ed.]

23 Micheller 03.05.08 at 3:35 pm

I laughed out loud. Cute!

24 Redzilla 03.05.08 at 4:00 pm

The pacing on this is perfect. Just at the moment I was thinking, “What a patient kitty,” Hugo decided he didn’t like the mouse ears.

Awesome! I should’ve watched this two hours ago and improved my whole morning.

25 Darsa 03.05.08 at 4:00 pm

I snorted while laughing at this one, in the office no less. Good thing boss-lady was on the phone at the time! ;)

26 cozytailmom 03.05.08 at 4:09 pm

Oh, he was not down with the Tin Tin hair. :>
Funny

27 Katrina 03.05.08 at 4:13 pm

Not funny. Not clever. Not entertaining. Annoying. Sad.

28 diz 03.05.08 at 4:21 pm

Katrina is kidding right?

29 Hon Glad 03.05.08 at 4:21 pm

Who needs CGI, cheapo production values rule.

30 Jen 03.05.08 at 4:24 pm

I’m sorry, but that was just plain stupid.

31 debg 03.05.08 at 4:27 pm

I laughed so hard, I disturbed the cat sitting on my lap. She hates it when I go to cuteoverload! Cats with racks forever.

32 Lizzy 03.05.08 at 4:29 pm

HAhahahaha! *shriek* *gasp* Ahahahahaaaaa! Heheeheeeee! *gasp* *snort* Haaaaaaaaaaaaahahahaheheheahahahohohaha!!

Ow, stoppit, cramp, it hurts! Can’t stop laughing! Hahahahaaa!!

“Mickey!? DO NOT WANT!”

33 Katrina 03.05.08 at 4:31 pm

No kidding.I have a funny bone, but this didn’t get close. It just wasn’t cute.
Just sad and well, annoyingly sad actually. I’m glad you enjoyed it, though.

34 Annie 03.05.08 at 4:40 pm

Sorry you didn’t get as big a kick out of this Katrina.. but I have cats Currently three and OMG LMAO funny. Okay and the rack on a cat was definatly the best thing and was anyone else thinking Monte Python?

35 Theo 03.05.08 at 4:42 pm

Annie — you speak as if it’s possible NOT to be thinking about Monty Python.

36 tania 03.05.08 at 4:45 pm

OMG! my brother made this movie and I am freaking out that it made it to my mecca of cuteness- cuteoverload! To me, this is like the holy grail- yay hugo!!!
:)

37 Theo 03.05.08 at 4:45 pm

“It just wasn’t cute. Just sad…”

Please understand, this only makes it *funnier* for me. [g'SNERK]

38 Shannon 03.05.08 at 4:46 pm

That ended funnier than it started. For some reason I liked the appearance of the human’s hand to show some loving. (begging?)

39 Theo 03.05.08 at 4:51 pm

Shannon — exactly. This clip might’ve been a “cheapie” (in the shoestring-budget, independent-film sense) but it was well paced & edited. It actually has a story arc, and without words, fer crysakes.

40 Theo 03.05.08 at 4:52 pm

Oh, and the acting? …flawless.

;)

41 Catsquatch 03.05.08 at 4:53 pm

SOMEONE has WAY too much TIME on their HANDS here pipples….

;D

42 Theo 03.05.08 at 4:56 pm

like, oh, say for instance, *US*, CatSquatch?

:P

43 metz 03.05.08 at 4:58 pm

Hugo “zzzzz-wth? Dude. You are weird.”
later, “DUuuude! Yer startin to annoy me.”
moar later, “Will U stop? Gimme dat!”
later still, “Sigh, Whatev.”
Still ROFL and can’t stop watchin.

44 Tia 03.05.08 at 5:12 pm

Finest kind. Love it.

45 kestrien 03.05.08 at 5:25 pm

This spread around my office like wildfire this morning – as more and more people were drawn to the gasps and snerks of uncontrollable laughter. This made my day – the patient, beautiful kitty, the equally patient, loving person!

46 jen 03.05.08 at 5:38 pm

omg someone has waaaay too much time on their hands! lol. perfection, i must say – what a great production. adorables. i love the composition and lounge music, and letting the patient kitteh play with the cards.

Luv the cheesiness.

47 Greg Davidson 03.05.08 at 5:56 pm

Everything was going good until the kitty started getting playful. Shame on him!

48 sassi 03.05.08 at 6:02 pm

That was the dumbest video I have seen! A total waste of everyone’s time, including the cat.

49 daquack 03.05.08 at 6:04 pm

wihihihi .. so funny :] \o/

50 Clare 03.05.08 at 6:20 pm

BAHAHAHAHA. My favourite bit was the ‘you’ve GOT to be kidding’ look when the boobies come down. :D

I feel kind of sorry for people who aren’t childish enough to find this funny…

51 Theo 03.05.08 at 6:23 pm

Now THERE’S a back-handed compliment, if I’ve ever heard one.

;)

52 Ponygirl 03.05.08 at 6:26 pm

Greatest video clip EVAR!

53 claudia 03.05.08 at 6:42 pm

In addition to the coolest, most hip kitteh around, the music is what cracked me up :D

54 caroline 03.05.08 at 6:42 pm

Too funny! I loved the background music!

55 TW 03.05.08 at 6:43 pm

Sounds like sassi is a cat also. Everything NOT having to do with eating and sleeping is a waste of time to a cat. Not being a cat myself, I liked it.

56 Theo 03.05.08 at 6:48 pm

OMG! Cat-like typing detected!!

57 LisaL 03.05.08 at 6:50 pm

Hahahahahaha… that was brilliant! I loved the cat bewbs :P

58 fish eye no miko 03.05.08 at 7:01 pm

Edward said: “I could honestly watch cats bat at things all day. Is that odd?”

No. In fact, there should be a video-only cat-egory–”cats ‘n bats”… hmmm… “Batting cats”? ^_^

59 carmini 03.05.08 at 7:21 pm

OOOOH my goshhh! this was SOOOO cute and funny! the mickey mouse ears part was the bessst!! ahahha… what a nice kitty ^__^

60 darkshines 03.05.08 at 7:31 pm

Absolutely loved the elevator music version of “I’m In the Mood For Love”!

61 chanpon 03.05.08 at 8:10 pm

LOL!! Another example of the world’s most patient cat. Really, who por what are we going to see next irritating some hapless kitty?

62 homer mariner 03.05.08 at 8:42 pm

Oh my god…. WOW. I laughed so hard at this. I’m so happy to see it in Cats’n'Racks. If it hadn’t been posted there… well, that would just be a tragedy of epic proportions.

63 onion 03.05.08 at 8:59 pm

LOL too silly! love it 8D 8D

64 Tamara 03.05.08 at 9:02 pm

Wonderfully weird! How do you get an idea to do that? Hmmmm, i think i’ll suspend various pic’s of eyes, moufs and bewbs in front of my cat, video tape it, and set it to some weird Ukranian version of James Bond music. Weirdness is the spice of life.

65 RidBaxter 03.05.08 at 10:06 pm

Hah, that was brilliant!

66 Smidge 03.05.08 at 10:38 pm

I see the cat is not a Tintin fan… >.>; *Is a rabid Tintin fangirl*

[I bet kitty associates the hair with that Snowy dog... - Ed.]

67 NotVerySubtle 03.05.08 at 11:13 pm

*snicker* That was priceless! Fun in the classic ‘what the heck were they thinking’ way, as well as fun in the ‘watching how much of this the cat will put up with’ way.

I love the internet.

68 Gail 03.05.08 at 11:23 pm

@Onion: I mis-read your “8D 8D” as “8 Letter D” and I thought you meant 8D as in bra size, which struck me as perfect for the boobs disguise!!!

Was anyone else reminded at the beginning of the theme to that old “Clutch Cargo (with his friends Spinner and Paddlefoot)” cartoon? Or is that strictly a Chicago thing??

69 berthaslave 03.06.08 at 12:15 am

Theo, I’m with you….the thought of someone watching this and NOT being amused even makes it funnier!!!

“Hugo” is the very definition of non-plussed. Excellent performance skills! Super-duper neutrality!

70 chet's momma 03.06.08 at 12:57 am

those were clive owen eyes in first shot!
MEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOOOOWWW!
who said bewbs? ROFLMAO!!!!

71 Theresa 03.06.08 at 1:14 am

Theo, my all-time favorite use of Yoda-syntax was in movie critic Anthony Lane’s review of Revenge of the Sith: “Break me a f***ing give.”

72 DaytimeDeb 03.06.08 at 1:29 am

Loved his look at :51 when, after much trying, mickey finally landed on his head. He was looking out at us as if to say, “somebody call KPS (kitty protective services)!”

73 ashagato 03.06.08 at 1:31 am

brilliant! so stylishly done, love the music!

74 muhj 03.06.08 at 2:10 am

…well, obvy. Yez, teh myoozic eez GUUUUUUUUUUD!

75 Nienna 03.06.08 at 4:25 am

lol! Omg, at 0:54, that cat is SO UTTERLY DISAPPROVING! It’s amazing, I laughed out louded.

76 AuntieMame 03.06.08 at 4:38 am

I thought I was on Fark for a moment.

BOOBIES!!1!

Seriously, I guffawed. Out loud.

77 AuntieMame 03.06.08 at 4:41 am

And fact that they were dangling the eyes and mouths (and BOOBIES!!1!) from two little strings made it even more hilarious!

78 Alyssa Carter 03.06.08 at 5:48 am

NO SERIOUSLY, OMG!!

This cat is identical to my cat!! THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY CRAZY!

79 Kar 03.06.08 at 6:36 am

“Shoestring budget.” So to speak.

80 bookmonstercats 03.06.08 at 9:35 am

Great. Love the soundtrack. Hugo objected to the Mickey Mouse ears – dare I say I agree, MM gives me the creeps?

81 Gail 03.06.08 at 10:09 am

@bookmonstercats: I’ve never cared much for the Mouse myself!

82 Barbarella 03.06.08 at 10:12 am

That was brilliant. Hugo, what a character! :D

83 cheesybird 03.06.08 at 12:26 pm

Ahymmm… in de moooooood… for Luuuuuubbbb….

84 lisa 03.06.08 at 2:29 pm

episode 2 is now live! Yay!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf_Rb5uS78s

[added the "2" there... - Ed.]

85 cheesybird 03.06.08 at 3:06 pm

OMG! Stormtrooper kitty! And once again with the brilliant music! Jonathan Howells is a FARKING genius!

86 NotSupposedToBeDoingThisATWork(ButNowI'mHome) 03.06.08 at 6:11 pm

omfg. that totally cracked my s#it up. and it was ridiculously well paced… if only half of what comes out of Hollywood was this good, maybe people would start going back to the theaters…

back to work, go I must.

87 Sharon Wilson 03.06.08 at 7:31 pm

I loved it when the kitty started attacking the card!

88 ilurvemakeup 03.07.08 at 1:41 am

I love it lol xD

89 Peep 03.07.08 at 8:07 pm

OK that’s just wrong…love the 50’s themed tunes and look…
it’s still WRONG tho, I peed my pants a widdle. Oof.

90 Jonathan Howells 03.07.08 at 10:19 pm

Hey all,

If you enjoyed Episode 1 of Hugo, Cat of 1000 Faces, here’s Episode 2!

91 MMc 03.08.08 at 12:56 am

These are sooo awesome. Love the music. And the Teletubby head…

92 Ameri 03.08.08 at 2:16 am

The cat doesn’t like Tintin hair! :O

93 Subhangi 03.08.08 at 8:59 am

Hee hee! So silly! All the while he was like “Oh, come off it” and in the end when he sees the boobies he’s like “What the- are you KIDDING ME?!”

Beautiful kitty, by the way.

94 Mary 03.08.08 at 11:32 pm

This is, hands down the funniest thing I ever saw. I will share this greatness with the world. When the 3rd episode is released (a Star Wars theme), I can die happy. This filmmaker need to be given an award of GREATNESS. And the cat needs 40 straight minutes of scratches for his AMAZING work.

95 Rys K. 03.09.08 at 10:50 pm

Hehe, I totally forgot to check back and see if it was posted up! Then again I was sicky lately too, so I couldn’t be online as muchness. Such a good kitty. :3

The last one was the best for me, always makes me giggle.

96 I love animals 03.15.08 at 4:05 am

A couple things made me giggle.

The kitty is a very good kitty, my kitty would of thought the little thing-a-ma-bobbers were toys.

I have been enjoying this site!
