Yes, its too bad they didn't work out something with Legend on this one. I've ordered this set from Barnes & Noble online but won't see it for another week or two unfortunately. I'm anxious to see the upgraded print. This really is probably the BEST film version of the Scrooge story for people to see, although I'm partial to the George C. Scott version. All the versions have something to recommend them and I would honestly say I like them all...just not quite equally

There's also a new one that has 2 versions of Scrooge/Christmas Carol from the 1920s.

Anyone familiar with this one?
