What's the best, or, your favorite version of A Christmas Carol?
There have been so many versions of this Dickens classic done over the years.
Which is your favorite?
Last night we watched the 1938 version with Reginald Owen as Scrooge.
I've always liked this one the most of all.

Honestly, both reading Dickens and watching fairly faithfully adapted film versions of Dickens stories tend to put me to sleep.
As such, I would say Scrooged.

Scrooge and Muppet Christmas Carol are my two choices.
Scrooge is great because it would be on TV every year Christmas day, I couldn't help but to watch it and it grew on me.

Hands down The Muppets. Nothing else comes close. Although Scrooged was entertaining as well.
