A New Trailer For Zemeckis' A CHRISTMAS CAROL Humbugs Its Way To The Net!!


Merrick here...


A new trailer for Robert Zemeckis' motion capture adaptation of A CHRISTMAS CAROL is online in many forms of various QuickTime over at Apple.

At times this feels a bit too much like Dickens by way of Looney Tunes, but I suppose it'll at least have impressive 3-D?


WHAT DO YOU THINK???
