Dante’s inferno 2

Second is the good use of existing Disney characters in A Christmas Carols roles, particularly Mickey Mouse as Bob Cratchit, Goofy as Marleys ghost, and Scrooge McDuck assurprise!Ebenezer Scrooge. This allows for two things: the right amount of freedom and looseness in the characterizations rating: 3 Its called Once Upon a Christmas but for the price of admission you get three separate cartoons featuring beloved Disney characters. Plus linking narration by battered husband Kelsey Grammer. Now thats what I call a Christmas bonus! DONALD DUCK: STUCK ON CHRISTMAS Despite what that title would have you believe, its actually Donalds nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie who are stuck on Christmas. If Christmas is like Groundhog Day, Huey, Dewey and Louie are like a feathery, three-headed Bill Murray. Yes, the three ducklings make a wish that it could be Christmas every day and hey! presto! their wish is granted. As Tom Petty warned, dante’s inferno 2 Christmas all over again. And again and again and again. First the boys are thrilled by this development. Then they grow weary of the unceasing sameness. Then they realize that they can get up to all manner of ducky didoes without fear of reprisal and they take full advantage of that situation. But then, as youd expect, they learn some Important Lessons. Their continual exposure to Christmas teaches them to eschew their selfish ways, that its better to give than receive and the true meaning of Christmas is love and all that. The other moral imparted to Huey, Dewey rating: 5 Christmas with the Kranks is the story of a neighborhood full of not very likable people, two of whom learn a valuable dante’s inferno 2 about the importance of conformity. Jamie Lee Curits and Tim Allen are Nora and Luther Krank, a pair of empty nesters who decide, on the first Christmas without their daughter at home, to take the money and effort usually spent on the trappings of the holiday and spend it on a Caribbean cruise instead. Rather than string lights on an empty house and put up a tree they wont be there to enjoy, they plan to skip Christmas this year and enjoy themselves in warmer climes. As Luther explains to his coworkers, hes not angry and wont yell humbug at anyone offering holiday greetings, hes just not doing the Christmas thing. Now, I love Christmas decorations and cram my house with just about every piece of red and green crap you can name. They could slap a googly-eyed snowman on a home enema kit and Id buy eight. But thats me. Id never do it, but I can see that what theyre planning is a perfectly reasonable thing for Luther and Nora to want to do. Not so rating: 5 This movie is by no means perfect. It takes a really long time to get going and its kind of all over the place throughout. But, as is always the case with the Muppets, there is much to love. Its Christmastime and the Muppets are preparing for their big holiday show. Theyre auditioning acts and building sets and everything seems to be falling into place for one great Christmas extravaganza. Alas, its then that the cruel, malicious businesswoman Joan Cusack who holds the lease on the Muppet Theater announces that if she isnt paid all of the extensive back rent she is owed, shell shut the theater down. The Muppets will have nowhere to put on their shows, and I think its suggested that most of them live in the theater, so I guess theyll be homeless as well. Of course, a way is found to raise the needed money in time. After a frantic rush through busy city streets, Fozzie Bear ends up failing in his attempt to deliver the payment, and things look dire for the Muppets indeed. Kermit the Frog is utterly dejected; he feels that everyone was counting on him to save their Christmas and, consequently, rating: 5 The Law of Diminution of Sequel Quality is on full display with The Santa Clause Its a movie thats actually pretty funny, in that family-friendly way, and features downright hilarious performances from some of the cast members new to the series, but its also a movie that just isnt any good.
