Everyone knows A Christmas Carol.
Charles Dickens’ classic novel has been adapted countless times in movies, television, plays, and just about every other form of media out there. Often times, it has been reenacted with characters from popular series and franchises such as Mickey Mouse, Mr. Magoo, The Muppets, The Loony Tunes (twice), Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Sanford and Son, and just about any other series out there. You would think that with all of those countless retellings, that the story would be as stale as that fruit cake you still haven’t eaten from several Christmases ago.

Let’s move on to the list! Once again, I shall provide a wee bit of commentary throughout and just some personal opinions at the end.
Okay so here we go! Read more

Being someone who dearly loves animation I felt I should post it here (with just a dash of commentary). The list comes from Great Britain’s Time Out Magazine. It was made to celebrate the release of Pixar’s Up in the U.K.
So without further ramblings, here is the list! Read more
