tbrown 26 #1 December 1, 2005 Hey it's Christmas time again and time for one of the coolest ghost stories ever written. I can't get enough of Dickens' "Christmas Carol", my favorite part is still Jacob Marley dragging all those chains up the stairs and walking in on Scrooge. So which is your favorite version ? Your favorite part of the story ? Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #4 December 1, 2005 I liked George C Scott's version for the classic story, and Bill Murray's version for the comedy. There's a different story of the same genre that I thought was good, with Nicolas Cage and Tea Leoni in it, but I forgot the name..."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Oh look, a toaster (bash) !" What does she say, something like "you won't be able to suck soup for three weeks" ? Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

Yeah... who could forget the end where the little good gremlin says "bye Billy"... just brings a tear to my eye... (sniff) That was a great movie, for sure!

Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol was my first experience with the story, I think I was in the 3rd grade when I saw it. Then just last year I caught it on cable for the first time in about forty years.
