# Talk:The Cat in the Hat Comes Back

Since the book was written in the late 1950's, has anyone suggested that the spreading pink ink in an uncontrolled house represents the spread of Communism, and the "Voom" in the tiniest cat's hat represents atomic energy?108.225.17.141 (talk) 05:37, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Yes, various editors have frequently added that the sequel was cancelled and -- variously -- that Audrey Geisel made this decision based on either the film's poor reception or that she was offended/appalled by the film.
The only source we have, however, says none of this. No cancelled sequel. She wasn't offended or appalled. She didn't order anything. The source simply states she didn't think Myers was right for the role and "The movie was judged by some critics as the worst of 2003, she notes. Geisel says she will never again allow Hollywood to portray Seuss characters in live action. An animated work based on the elephant character Horton will be the next film project."
If you want to say more than that, you will need another source. - SummerPhDv2.0 19:04, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
