The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day features a blue furry Charles Dickens that hangs out with a rat?

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!

There have been many versions of A Christmas Carol told over the years in all the different mediums… literature, stage, TV, film… and next to Scrooged, The Muppet Christmas Carol is one of my favorites. Remember when children’s films weren’t always catering only to the indiscriminate super-young? I’m not talking about the teen-geared Harry Potters, but a general hole in family filmmaking that was left open by the lack of Muppet movies in recent years.

I fondly remember seeing The Muppet Christmas Carol in theaters upon its 1992 release… It doesn’t quite have the timeless magic of the Jim Henson Muppet films, but the humor and heart is still there in abundance.

If I’m not mistaken that’s Gonzo and Rizzo with Brian Henson. Thanks to reader Matt Woodcock for sending the image along. Hope you guys enjoy the pic and make sure to click for the larger version!

 

 

Tomorrow’s behind the scenes pic has Hitch giving direction to Leo. See you folks then!
