There are two constants about
Christmas. Somebody’s going to
retell Dickens and Disney is going
to rebundle a holiday classic and
put it out there on the market. One
of this year’s offerings is
Mickey’s
Christmas Carol.
In Disney’s version, Scrooge McDuck goes through the three ghosts
of Christmas, and other characters in
the Disney universe are placed in
different roles of the book. What’s
really special about this cartoon
is that they not only took
characters from their classic
cartoons, but they took other
characters as well, including Mr.
Toad and Jiminy Cricket.
Mickey's
Christmas
Carol is a friendly translation for kids
that’s not overly scary on the Ghost
of Christmas future and it runs
short at just a half hour. It’s
bundled with three other short
cartoons too including The Small
One, Santa’s Workshop, and
Pluto’s
Christmas Tree. All three cartoons
are Disney holiday classics.
With the new version of A Christmas
Carol starring Jim Carey coming out
this Holiday Season, Disney will
actually release two different takes
on A Christmas Carol which is
somewhat interesting., but really
more of a side note.. Mickey’s
Christmas Carol was something I
loved about Christmas when I was a
kid and I[m excited to share this
with my kids this Christmas.
