We all know it's been the most copied and reiterated piece of literature for this time of the year and there's been countless versions of it on TV and film. So whaich version is your favorite?

Hey now, there's like a billion B&W versions. I assume you mean the Alastair Sim one?

Muppet Christmas Carol all the way. I've never seen any black and white one, but as compared to the others... Muppets definitely win out for me. My friend Arion and I recently wrote and acted in a commercial for Stream and I was the Ghost of Christmas Present. All I could think the whole time during shooting was how much I wanted to watch the Muppet Christmas Carol.

How about the Aqua Teen Hunger Force episode with the Robotic Ghost of Christmas Past From the Future? That counts, right?

That's what I'd like to know.
Well, of all the ones listed, I'm going with the Muppets.

Scrooged rules. Then again, almost everything with Bill Murray in it rules. Except for Steve Zissou. That bored me out of my mind. I wonder if Wes Anderson is going to be able to make any good movies after possibling peaking with Royal Tenenbaums.

I like the episode of "AHHHHH! Real Ghostbusters" where they accidentally bust the ghosts of Christmast Past, Christmas Present, and Christmas Future and then have to pose as them to save Christmas.

Yeah, sorry about that. I meant to include "Other" as a poll option, but it was late for me and I was in bed before I realized I'd forgotten it.

I liked The Life Aquatic. However, Bill Murray has been in plenty of crap:
Garfield
Garfield: A Tale Of Two Kitties
The Man Who Knew Too Little
Actually, that might be it. He was kinda useless in Osmosis Jones too.

Did you just combine "The Real Ghostbusters" and "AHHHHHH! Real Monsters"? And for a while that was the only episode that was regularly being rerunned.
Soon, the DVD volumes will be complete...

That scene in Mickey's Christmas Carol with Scrooge McDuck and the future ghost scared the piss outta me as a kid. Falling in to a firey grave to hell... How did the folks at Disney think that was appropriate for a heartwarming, classic Christmas story?
Nevertheless, I voted for Mickey's because it harkens back to a time when Disney was still good.
