I stumbled upon the The Muppet Christmas Carol.
Thank the good Lord, I stumbled upon the The Muppet Christmas Carol! I was smart enough to hit record, since we'd have to leave before it was over. So, later on, we all sat down and watched it from (almost) the beginning, the whole family. And my kids loved it too.
How I've managed to go through almost twenty Christmases since it was released and not watch that movie before this weekend is beyond me. I was mesmerized. Michael Caine was BRILLIANT. I laughed, I cried, I laughed some more.
When I was a child, I listened to a record called The Frog Prince over and over and over again on my little record player in my room. Back then, we didn't have DVRs or even VCRs (I know, the horror!), so I saw the movie once, and then it lived on through the record. It's fun to revisit the movie on youtube now. Anyway, until now, that was my favorite muppet movie:
But now, I have The Muppet Christmas Carol. Ahh... love, love, love!
I know I love the hub for that I remeber thinking I was so disapointed that it wasn't on last year but I've seen it TWICE in these last two months
ReplyDeleteI love the muppets
We love this movie! It's a family tradition to watch it on Christmas Eve after dinner. We eat treats and sing along with all the songs. Such a great movie!
ReplyDeleteThe Muppet Christmas Carol is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWe used to listen to Star Wars on our record player when I was a kid.
