Muppet christmas zoom background movie#
I did a lot of searching to find this, since it seems there's only one DVD version out there that has the full, uncut version of this movie - the one with both full-screen and wide screen options. If you enjoyed the Muppet Show in the 1980's or any of the Muppet movies that have been released like "Muppets from Space" or "Muppet Treasure Island", you will thoroughly enjoy this adaptation. The last bonus feature is &qu ot Christmas around the world" which talks about various Christmas traditions in other countries. The special features include a commentary with Director Brian Henson, some "out takes" from the movie (which are pretty good.) There is "Frogs,Pigs and Humbug":Unwrapping a New Holliday Classic" which gives you some interesting background on the movie. The songs are by Paul Williams, and to make it even better, this is a Walt Disney Pictures production. Michael Caine does a splendid job working with the Muppets. Brian Henson did a fine job in making his fist movie. We have Kermit the Frog as Bob Crachet, Miss Piggy as his wife, Fozzie the Bear as Fozziwig, Gonzo as the narrator- Charles Dickens, and Michael Caine as Scrooge. Watch this with a glass of Baileys if you’re feeling the holiday blues and you could do with reconnecting to your inner child.This is an adaption of the Charles Dickens classic that doesn't wander too badly from the original novel. The wonderful ending will leave you abuzz. This perfect adaptation captures the Christmas tradition of telling tales of hope and horror and expresses Dickens’ humour, empathy and social commentary with apt frivolity. I could do without his saccharine song, but it is incredible how emotionally invested one becomes with what is essentially a small olive sock. And not forgetting the manipulative Tiny Tim. Kermit and Miss Piggy play the Cratchits with hilarious support from their piglet daughters, who despite their poverty have fabulous ringlets. And then of course the evergreen relationship between a meek frog and a horny pig. Listen out for savvy dialogue in the background like a teacher telling an impressionable teenage Scrooge “remember, don’t tip the driver”.

Lines from Bob Cratchit’s fellow clerks begging for a warmer office declaring that their “assets are frozen”. The brilliant thing about revisiting films you loved as a child is that you suddenly understand so many jokes. I suppose it is a children’s film after all. Forget the tuberculous, the crime or the gin induced deaths here is a city of colour and romance. The musical numbers do a Lionel Bart and turn Dickens’ London into a Mardi Gras. He provides the best song and finally cracks a smile onto Scrooge’s granite face. Who doesn’t want to “come in and know me better, man”. Of course the party belongs to the Present Day Spirit a hearty Brian Blessed style party animal. Give me the faceless ghoul of Christmas Yet to Come any day. The spirit of Christmas Past is truly creepy a porcelain faced little girl with a chilling clipped accent. To be fair to him he just wants to be left alone.Īnyway, the ghosts of his old business partners pay him a visit - a stroke of genius splitting the role and casting infamous hecklers Statler and Waldorf as the Marley Brothers - who of course warn him about his impending adventure through time with three curious tour guides.

Sometimes you just don’t want to go to the Zoom party. I think we can all relate a little to Scrooge.

By today’s standards he would be considered an anti hero. Playing it straight we have Michael Caine as the infamous miser Ebenezer Scrooge. Our tour guides are Gonzo, the blue proboscis nosed alien (I assume), and his wiseguy sidekick Rizzo the rat. Most of the Muppets break the fourth wall as they invite us into their world through song and smartass ad-libs. The festive tone is just right as the cheerful overture compliments views of cramped Victorian London dusted in snow. Transporting brash American characters into classic English literature would make a wealthy dowager faint, but it all works to bring this dark tale to a fresh young audience. And thanks to streaming services their take on Charles Dickens’ Christmas fable will forever endure! Jim Henson’s menagerie have been entertainment icons for half a century, from a cabaret show, to animation to films.
