A Christmas Carol 3D

Opera Diva · A Christmas Carol 3D

Last night I was sitting in the opening night of A Christmas Carol 3D - Disney's new film with Jim Carrey voicing many characters.

It was the last screening of the evening - 9.20pm!!!

There were 10 of us altogether in the screen.

I saw snow float down before my very eyes, felt the spit from Jacob Marley's face trickle and flew with the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future.

I am off to see it again next week.

If you love Christmas and want to see a really magical film, then go and watch Disney's A Christmas Carol in 3D

My mum and I also have a traditional Christmas eve trip to the cinema, love it! It's normally full of kids with dads!

Reckon I'll be off to see where the wild things are this year.

The last couple of years have been Narnia, Enchanted, Eragon etc, real family fantasy films!

Think I might go to see this film - I like the sound of it

I am going again on Wednesday.

I wonder how long it will stay at the cinema?

It will make the most wonderful enhancement for Charles Dickens literacy work. It is the closest to the book I have seen and I love the Alisatir Sim version.

Has anyone ever bought a DVD in 3D of a film and found it works at home?

Did you have to wear the 3D glasses?

Sounds amazing. My favourite christmas story. I wonder if I will be able to go on Orange Wednesday.

Opera Diva

Yes, I had to wear 3D glasses. They cost 80p!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Christmas Carol and read it every year!

Robert Zemeckis is the director. He did The Polar Express which I loved.

Christmas normally starts for me in December too, but having seen a trailer for this film it was a must for me.

You fly over London. It has truly struck a chord with me - quite amazing.

I'm goin to watch it nearer the time to get all chrismassy. What kind of age range would you suggest it would be aimed at?

The 3D DVDS - you get 4 pairs of cardboard gallses with them usually but if you get them from the cinema - either through the paying rate or some cinemas you pay more & they are then included, these glasses work at home.

Some parts are quite scary and I jumped and nearly wet myself on a couple of occasions!!!!

Children watch so many things these days I think they would cope.

It is PG and labelled with scary scenes and images.

Ignorance and Want are scary as well as Marley's Ghost.

The animation is incredible.

Sneaky peek!!!!!

I will take my 7 year old nephew definatly, but I'm not sure about my nieces 5 and 3. Thanks OD.

A Christmas Carol is one of my all time favourites. I don't own a copy of the book, but have a audio version (not very well read) and several film adaptations. Alister Simm is my favourite, but am quite impressed by the Muppet version too!
Will certainly make a point of going to see this - thanks for mentioning it!

Desperate to see it!!
(Although nothing beats Muppets Christmas Carol for me!)

Misty

Thank you OD, we're off to see it at 11.30! Can't wait xx

Sounds great- not sure my 4 year old will cope with it, but my 6 year old might enjoy it.

Looking forward with kids to seeing this, one of mine is bound to be scared but they are up for it so will probably miss bits if they sit on me!! trying to work out if got an evening this week.

Soooooooooooo excited. I'm going tonight.

Sounds great. Thanks for telling us about it, as it's not something I would have thought of going to.
