Overview
Miser Ebenezer Scrooge is awakened on Christmas Eve by spirits who reveal to him his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways.

Viewing Notes
Tried getting this last year for my 12 Days of Christmas project but wasn’t able to. Nice to find it on tv in my hotel via the Disney Channel. For a Zemeckis animated flick I like this more than Polar Express probably because this has more horror elements (and I like the Christmas Carol story having seen many adaptations of it). I suppose they got Jim Carrey to have a “star” attached to this when it was released but they could’ve used all unknowns in these roles. I wouldn’t have guessed this was Carrey since he’s using an accent and this Scrooge looks nothing like him. Okay, maybe the eyes.
