After Disney’s live-action remake of Pinocchio disappointed everybody
it’s nice to say that there’s one good adaptation of Pinocchio released in 2022!
Directed by Guillermo del Toro, this stop-motion animated film has been in the making for years, even getting stuck in development hell. But it’s finally completed to the joy of every animation fan who’s been dying to see it!
Read on for my thoughts on the film!
(Caution, there will be some spoilers!)
Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is a story that I enjoy very much and I like to check out as many adaptations of it as I can and oh boy, there are a lot! There are silent versions, live-action versions, animated versions, musical versions, etc. One of my favorite adaptations is the live-action 1970 musical film, Scrooge, starring Albert Finney as the stingy, curmudgeonly Ebenezer Scrooge.
I thought the songs (by Leslie Bricusse) were mostly well-written, the acting was wonderful, and the overall film was delightful. I was surprised to discover that an animated remake of the film would be coming to Netflix entitled Scrooge: A Christmas Carol.
What did I think of this animated remake directed by Stephen Donnelly? Read on to find out!

Wow, I can’t believe it’s been 10 years! I still remember the day that I created this blog.
I was sitting in a college classroom attending a computer programming lecture and was bored. So I pulled out my laptop, created a WordPress account, and The Animation Commendation was born!

P.S. We recorded this episode on the day that Mikhail Gorbachev died, hence our mentioning of the fact. It was a total coincidence.
