those puppet movies are a little creepy to me now for some reason... i think its their movements and faces
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

I can remember the first time I watched Rudolph. I ran behind the couch when Bumble showed up!

I think my favorite renditin of Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol" was an old black & white movie made in 1951. IMHO it was the closest to the book.

Mike, see Jim Carrey's Christmas carol, it is very close to the book as well.

My daughter (12) saw the Jim Carrey Christmas Carol recently on a school field trip. She said it was good, but, having been raised on George C. Scott's, she still prefers that version.

Funny what you all are saying about "Bumble" from Rudolph. When she was 4, she was afraid to watch Rudolph because of that scary Bumble!
