He doesn't usually like watching TV. Not even videos of birds
But he loves Lego Batman. He'll sit there and watch the whole film - without looking away
I guess representation is important
@rufustheduck It could be the ears. Lego Batman looks more like a cat than a bat. Your cat may think he's watching other cats.

@rufustheduck I wonder if part of it is that Lego Batman has very expressive eyes!

@rufustheduck I had a cat who watched "The Blues Brothers" beginning to end with me. Other than that, he never showed any interest in TV.
@Barbramon1 I'll have to try it out on Max

@rufustheduck we had a cat who loved watching motorcycles on tv. There was some show we watched (this was about 20 years ago, so I don’t remember what it was) that had a motorcycle sequence in the intro, and he would always come running from wherever he was when the theme music came on.

@rufustheduck oh wow, that's adorable. *melt*
My cats aren't interested in telly. I just get bats zooming in when Batman is running.

@rufustheduck We had a white one who liked to watch the YouTube channel of Paul dinning: Cat videos. He had a degenerative disease and left us very young. 4 years have passed and we still miss him.
We didn't know of any other cat that watches TV attentively until your post. -

@rufustheduck Our cats are usually not that interested in the tv but when I watched the movie 'Flow' one of my cats was *really* into it. Even tried to jump into the screen.

@rufustheduck Is it possible the movie is shown in 120 frames per second (or more)?
I read some time ago that cat eyes view a lot "faster" than we do. So for us movies become movies at around 25-30 frames per second - but for cats only above 100 frames per second.
So lots of movies for us are stop-motion-pictures for them - and therefore not very "real" - unless the framerate is higher than most movies made for humans.(Sorry for being all technical. I'm sure he just wants to be catman.)

@rufustheduck "I'm BatCat"
@linuxandyarn @rufustheduck That'd be quite ironic in French, provided a bat is somehow a "bald mouse" ("chauve souris", not kidding).

@rufustheduck
My parrot watches cartoons on PBS in the morning, and Bird videos before bed. He also enjoys movies with good music like “Strictly Ballroom”. If I have to go out for a while, I put on a music channel from PBS. He loves Opera and Operetta, but any classical music will keep him calm yet amused. Even tries to whistle and “Amazon strut” along if he’s so inclined. Nuttier than squirrel poop sometimes, but he’s great fun.
