is it just me?

Or was A Christmas Carol never meant to be a "thrill ride"?

I'm all for playing with themes and updating the concept (An American Christmas Carol with Henry Winkler is my fav christmas movie of all), but the commercials are making it out to be a CGI action-comedy a-la Ice Age, and are leaving me totally unimpressed and uninterested.

p.s., get off my lawn.

Disney used to be good at (hell, they were the inventors of) movies "good for all ages". They still manage them (especially Pixar).

Why stop now, especially for a seasonal work that's meant to have an aire of timelessness to it (if it didn't, it wouldn't still be the most popular Christmas work outside of the Gospel of Luke).
