I grew up on the Muppets! I loved their TV show and several of their movies. So, when this movie was made it was thoroughly embraced by me. While I lived with my parents my Mom & I would make popcorn and watch it. That's when the Christmas season officially began in our house. I still watch it every Christmas.
They do a great job of telling the story. I love how some of the dialogue is taken from the book. Micheal Cane is an amazing Scrooge. Gonzo plays the narrator of the story and does a great job at it. My Christmas would not be complete without watching this movie!!

Aw, the Muppets! I haven't seen this movie yet, but the Muppets were great, so I think I should see this movie.
It's a good one, in my opinion. Thank you so much for your comment! Hope all is well with you!
This is my favourite movie adaption of A Christmas Carol too (it even beats Mickey's Christmas Carol, which I loved as a kid and still do). I expected it to be a little cheesy the first time I watched it, but I was pleasantly surprised by how touching and sweet it is. I love how close to the original it is, while still being, well, original. Definitely a Christmas tradition for me!
Hilde, I feel the exact same way!!! I love that some of the book's dialogue became some of the movie dialogue. I'm yet to find another movie of the book I like better. Thanks for commenting! I'm glad to see someone else loved this movie as much as I did.
