This is a poor interpretation of the classic. Disney watered it down and ruined it. The best version by far is the George C. Scott one from 1982

2024-04-18 01:27:10 +0000 UTCLol I didn't know about Fonzie's! Sims is my fave, but there's so many likeable ones, you're right, George. You can't say that about many remakes of movies. Two others I can, imo is Wuthering Heights. Or Jane Eyre.

2024-01-09 12:05:59 +0000 UTCPeople with loved ones and hard earned money is wonderful, to shower them and others is a blessing. I seem to love many Christmas Carols. Sims, Finney and even the older ones work for me. Even Fonzies I enjoyed.

2024-01-09 01:48:38 +0000 UTCThat would be Gary Oldman and I didn't even recognize the voice or look at the credits for that matter lol. All Three Ghost were played by Jim Carrey so Bob could of been played by anyone. I'll have to look it up.

2023-12-24 18:30:03 +0000 UTCI know. Remember when they used to make faithful adaptations that weren't written in the same amount of time for my groceries to arrive via instacart. But if they do Percy Jackson and Eragon right, since they are taking a lot of time with them, I could be convinced that they have a future. But I won't forgive them if they screw it up.

2023-12-24 03:21:05 +0000 UTCthe pot of something you saw Scrooge heating at the beginning is gruel, a variant of oatmeal or porridge that was served in the time that you were sick or in need of some quick dining Since Scrooge was elderly, he was using it to help him sleep I guess

2023-12-24 00:57:06 +0000 UTCThanks. I watch a couple of other movie reactors too so maybe I forgot they did it......Happy Holidays

2023-12-23 22:57:51 +0000 UTCThey have seen it's a Wonderful Life and its here on Patreon if you wanna look it up eh?? Merry Christmas!!

2023-12-23 20:10:17 +0000 UTCI am enjoying this as I type the comment. Like some of the other comments I also enjoy the 1951 version (classic) but I guess you may have seen it in school or something. I still recommend the movie It's a wonderful Life, (if you have never seen it). The messages of these movies are all the same Love & kindness conquers all. Life happens but while you're living it you'll get through whatever "it" is if there is love and kindness in your life & I believe that as well.

2023-12-23 16:38:50 +0000 UTCWow look at the movies Disney used to make. The good old days.

2023-12-23 16:25:59 +0000 UTCGreat channel. When should we expect to see Dexter: New Blood. It is outstanding.
Jeff Swearingen
2023-12-23 16:14:47 +0000 UTCYeah I am torn about the cartoon antics. I think it has its own charm but kind of derails from the seriousness of the story. Probably is better at keeping children entertained I suppose? And Bob was voiced by the same actor as the one playing Commissioner Gordon in the Dark Knight Trilogy. Not sure if he did anything in the Lord of the Rings saga, tbh

2023-12-23 06:47:05 +0000 UTCvideo file does not exist?
Kevin Przy
2023-12-23 06:07:16 +0000 UTCHere's some behind the scene video of the motion capture used to make the movie. The cool thing with motion capture is that other people can be in front of the cameras and not be in the scene. The computer only picks up the actors that have the motion capture suits on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qC_3zkd5ZQ

2023-12-23 05:36:25 +0000 UTCInteresting cast. Bob seemed to be played by a hobbit and the third ghost looked a lot like Darth Vader when he was watching Scrooge falling down into the grave. The 1951 version is the best, but at least this one was very faithful to the text of the book despite the excessive cartoon mayhem.

2023-12-23 04:49:22 +0000 UTCGreat reaction, guys! Now do The Ref (1994)!

2023-12-23 04:41:39 +0000 UTCI love anime too - so, I hear you. I'll watch, as I said, the 1951 one with my son Xmas day as always lol. Thank you for requesting it :)

2023-12-23 04:20:23 +0000 UTCThank you Asia and BJ - Loved your reactions to this. You're right. Its so easy to forget....Money isn't everything! Family and loved ones are. Definitely watch it with the kids! Merry Christmas, and thank you for all you do and all the smiles :)

2023-12-23 04:18:52 +0000 UTCCarl, have you seen A Christmas Carol goes wrong? you should add that to your collection if you haven't already haha
Radiodanoo
2023-12-23 04:03:00 +0000 UTCThank you and I agree, the 1951 version IS really good, but I am a sucker for really good animation.
Radiodanoo
2023-12-23 04:00:52 +0000 UTCI did actually lol - I've not seen that one in forever!
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 03:16:55 +0000 UTCWait until you hit your 50s😩
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 03:16:21 +0000 UTCAnd don’t forget, George C Scott.😁
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 03:15:39 +0000 UTCJim Carrey 7 roles in this movie.
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 03:14:40 +0000 UTCA Christmas Carol 1951 would have been worth watching, you couldn't pay me to watch this crap.
Michael Hartsell
2023-12-23 03:04:32 +0000 UTCNow you have to watch The Man Who Invented Christmas (2017)
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:50:15 +0000 UTCThe 1970 version with Albert Finney, is my 3rd favourite one tbh.
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 02:48:50 +0000 UTCI think the 1938 version is my least favorite, but I have it also.
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:44:48 +0000 UTCFair enough lol. Yes and though I love him as an actor? Its not my fave. Its prob 4th on the list for me tbh. :)
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 02:40:49 +0000 UTCIt’s just OK, but I needed it for my collection!😆 I probably have about 10 versions of it at this point. Have you seen Patrick Stewart’s version?
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:36:11 +0000 UTCI've never watched the Mr. Magoo one lol. Is it any good? My son loved the muppets Christmas carol, but as he's got older he likes the 1951 version too. We watch that every Christmas eve.
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 02:31:06 +0000 UTCI was in my late teens or early 20s before I even knew what a Christmas Carol was. I was watching TV one Saturday and the Alastair Sim version came on after the movie I was watching ended. That’s how I was introduced to the whole thing, and now I probably own every version of a Christmas Carol ever made. It’s become an obsession! I even have the Flintstones, Muppets and Mr. Magoo versions!😜
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:28:28 +0000 UTCHahaha you're welcome as to the snowflake idea lol. And same, I watch it in black and white on YT if for convenience but, I do have it on DVD in colour too. I love Alistair Sim as him. I grew up watching the oldies with family members :) Zulu is another fave of mine.
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 02:24:37 +0000 UTCOh, and I’m stealing your snowflake idea too. What a great idea!❄️😁👍🏻
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:21:44 +0000 UTCSame here. I thought the same thing when they reacted to The Grinch, that was 23 years ago. I was just sitting here like "So this is what being in the 40s feels like" lmao time sure flies man.

2023-12-23 02:21:43 +0000 UTCI absolutely love the 1951 version! I have it colorized on DVD.👍🏻
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:20:00 +0000 UTCI saw it in the theater. Also, I can’t believe it was 14 years ago!😳
Carl 🐉
2023-12-23 02:18:16 +0000 UTCThank you Asia, BJ and VIP requester. I love the 1951 version BUT love this one as well. I'm a happy lass :)
SilverDoe🎔
2023-12-23 02:15:38 +0000 UTCIt's a Jim Carrey Christmas lol. Haven't seen this since it came out so I'm looking forward to remembering with y'all ✌❤ A&B fam!

2023-12-23 02:14:41 +0000 UTCThanks Asia and BJ. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
JL Green
2023-12-23 02:13:15 +0000 UTCSo glad you decided to do this one this year! The version with Patrick Stewart is also good, but my favorite will always be the Aliatair Sim version! I have it colorized on DVD. 🎄🎁👻
