The movie is also Disney’s third adaptation of the classic story, following Mickey’s Christmas Carol and The Muppet Christmas Carol. The film had its world premiere in London, coinciding with the switching-on of the annual Oxford Street and Regent Street Christmas lights. Scrooge is then escorted to a cemetery, where the Ghost forces him to fall into his own coffin lying in a deep grave that sits above the fires of Hell. The Ghost points out the consequences upon the man who died, and he decides to change his ways as the man of the real Christmas Carol.
The following day, he gives a warm dinner to his loyal employee Bob Cratchit and his son Tiny Tim, who escapes to a new life in the city. Scrooges becomes a father to Fred, who is warmly welcomed by the charity workers, and later attends Fred’s Christmas dinner, where he becomes a warm figure to the people of the city, and gives a gift to Tiny Tim to spread happiness and love in his heart. In the end, he becomes the father of a young boy named Fred, whom he raises to become a successful businessman and a successful philanthropist. The end of the film sees Scrooges become a grandfather to a young man named Fred and a father of two young boys, who are also warm and loving to each other. It was produced through the process of motion capture, a technique used in Zemeckeris’s previous films The Polar Express and Beowulf, and is also the third film in the series to be released by Disney.
