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.

i'm not particularly a Jim Carey fan either. he's not ALL THAT funny. amusing at times, yes. but i've found his better acting are in movies where it wasn't OMG IT'S JIM CAREY to the point you don't even know what his character was supposed to be.

and, futhermore, speaking of commercials for this movie, i guess i don't see the point of 'oh ha ha, now Ebenezer Scrooge gets racked in the balls by icicles' in the middle of A Christmas Carol. call me a curmudgeon on that point, but Bah Humbug!!

bring me the Muppet version if you must update the story. ;)
