🎅☃️❄️Ho-Ho-Holiday Movie Showdown🎄🤶📽

[TheMrBurns]

In this battle of reformed heels, Scrooged came out early with a massive barrage of Gen X nostalgia and love of Bill Murray but Elf has fought back harder (and possibly dirtier) than a Central Park Ranger to close to within two votes. With less than 4 hours remaining, this is still anyone's race!

 

[TheMrBurns]

Your winner, by a split decision of 9 to 7, Scrooged! They will move on to the second round to face Battle 3's winner while Elf returns through the seven levels of the candy cane forest in shame. But now for today's match-up.

Battle #2.
The Muppet Christmas Carol

vs.
How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)

In the corner to my right, with a record of 13 movies and 3 television series, The Muppets. With the second of three versions of the Dickens classic in this tournament, The Muppet Christmas Carol. And in the corner on my left, with a record of stretching a 20 page children’s book into a 105 minute long feature film, the year 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Let the battle between the man surrounded by muppets and the man dressed as a muppet begin!

Gotta go with Muppets!

Battle 2… if you were comparing the Boris Karloff grinch, that would get my vote. But alas…

The Muppets! For sure!

Im going with Elf because I watch it every year but im annoyed that finalists or at least semi finalists are meeting in the 1st round

 

[Bry1313]

Damn, was late voting for the first one, muppets for day 2

Um… isn’t it too late for that? The Elf went down!

 

[cactusjack0584]

Muppets all day! Who doesn’t love Michael Caine?

 

[Deadfreak]

The writing and acting of the muppets is top notch but sorry Jim Henson, I have to vote for Jim Carrey killing it as The Grinch

I'm voting Muppets.

I was never a fan of Carey's Grinch, although I did laugh at how he was debating with himself on whether to go the Hoo's party. One of the arguments against was "What if it's Cash Bar?"

Agreed, it's not Christmas without the real Grinch but it is neither feature length nor was it theatrically released.

[crazychemgirl]

Absolutely The Muppet Christmas Carol

 

[orangecurious]

[barefootgirl69]

Muppets. i mean!

I knew that would be your choice!

 

[DannieB]

Most definitely The Muppet Christmas Carol!!

 

[Photog1rl]

Definitely the muppets.
Bummed I didn’t see this yesterday as Elf should have been the clear winner

 

[TheMrBurns]

Well if you and @Bry1313 had voted it would have ended in a tie and the tie breaker would have gone to Elf.
