A Christmas Carol Directed by: Robert Zemeckis Starring: Jim Carey, Gary Oldman, Colin Firth Rated: Unknown Release date: November 6, 2009

Trailer Score: 8/10

My Thoughts: Following something as simple as a snowflake as it flies through the air. Where have I seen something like that before? Oh well, back to the preview ... hmm, directed by Robert Zemeckis ... director of Back to the Future and ... Forrest Gump ... The feather! Way to copy your previous work Zemeckis! Well done.

And does it help anybody to see an animated movie about Christmas if the guy also directed Future and Gump? OK, being needlessly picky ... the film looks great and Zemeckis continues to prove his is a (and maybe the) leader in 3D animation. Yeah, that's right James Cameron, I said it. This will be a must to see in IMAX or Disney Digital 3D. The only issue will be if the story will be altered or interesting enough compared to the visual delights.
