Christmas Carol #2Christmas is approaching and soon the streets will be filled with lights decorating the homes of many.  There will be carols playing and every channel will have that one classic Christmas movie that you have to watch every year!  You know you can’t miss the Charlie Brown Christmas Special!  Disney has struck again and has remade a popular Christmas movie which will open in theaters November 6th: the classic Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol”.

“A Christmas Carol” is about a miserable old rich man named Ebenezer Scrooge who believes that Christmas is just an excuse for people to miss work and for lazy people to expect handouts. He doesn’t believe in all of the good cheer and charity that the season promotes, and he makes sure everyone knows it.   Because of his sour attitude he doesn’t have many friends and spends Christmas Eve alone.  That night Scrooge falls asleep and is visited by three ghosts: Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. They show Scrooge his mistake in valuing money over people.  Scrooge awakes on Christmas morning a new man. He becomes very jolly and charitable, and truly turns into the man he promised the ghosts he would become. He then begins to carry the spirit of Christmas with him all year round!

Disney has remade this classic and will be featured as a 3-D motion picture!  Jim Carrey stars as Ebenezer Scrooge and also plays Ghost of Christmas Past and Ghost of Christmas Present.  This movie will truly be a must see for this holiday season.

Check out the trailer here….enjoy!
