How the Grinch Stole Christmas.


                                   How the Grinch Stole Christmas.




The Grinch is a surly, antisocial green creature with a heart "two sizes 

too small" who lives alone in a cave atop Mt. Crumpit, located above the 

village of Whoville. He especially hates Christmas and has spent the last 

53 years annoyed by their Christmas celebrations. In particular, he hates 

the noise, the gluttonous feasting, and the Christmas music. 

On Christmas Eve, he finally has had enough and decides to 

stop Christmas Day from coming to Whoville at all.

The Grinch makes himself a Santa Claus-style coat and hat, to disguise 

himself as the famed Christmas character. He also disguises his dog Max 

as a reindeer. The Grinch then loads empty bags onto a sleigh and 

travels to Whoville in the night. Acting as the reverse of Santa Claus, he 

takes everything Christmas-themed in the first house he finds. In so 

doing, he is almost caught by Cindy Lou Who, a toddler Who girl who 

wakes up and sees him taking the Christmas tree. Maintaining character 

as Santa, the Grinch tells Cindy Lou that he is merely taking the tree to 

his workshop for repairs, and then gets her a drink before sending her 

back to bed. He finishes emptying the first house of all the Christmas-

related items, then repeats the process at the other houses in Whoville.

With the Whos' stolen Christmas goods, the Grinch and Max travel back 

up Mt. Crumpit. Before dropping the loaded sleigh off the mountain, the 

Grinch listens, excitedly, to hear cries of anguish from the Whos when 

they wake to discover their losses. However, down in the village, the 

Whos joyously begin to sing Christmas carols as though nothing had 

happened, proving that the spirit of Christmas does not depend on 

material things. At first, the Grinch is confused, but he then begins to 

understand the true meaning of Christmas. Just as the stolen Christmas 

items begin to slip off the mountain edge, the Grinch rushes to save 

them. His heart grows three sizes, granting him "the strength of ten 

Grinches, plus two!", which he needs to lift the sleigh to safety. He 

brings everything back to the Whos and participates in the holiday feast. 

He is given the honor of carving the Whos' favorite Christmas dish, a 

rare roast beast, and Max gets the first slice for all his troubles.

                                  Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale . There are so many versions of the Nutcracker but not all of them are  created equal, some are down right bad but this one is one of the best  ones you will ever see plus who doesn't love Tom and Jerry. There movie  proves why they have been a staple in family homes since they came on  the cartoon scene. The animation and story are perfect they fit well  together and if you know me that is a deal breaker, if they don't match  or  fit together they wont work but this one is perfect. So, with that, lets  get to the story shall we: Jerry  and his nephew  Tuffy  watch the  Christmas   ballet  in  New York   City  while a group of cats, including  Tom , sing a song for the Cat King in  an alley overlooking the  Empire State Building .

                                          Rudolph's Shiny New Year. I loved this movie cause they went threw the years past and then to the  present and the story is amazing and the animation is spot on with the  Rankin/Bass movies. They follow the baby new year that is afraid of  people making fun of his huge ears and yes people laugh but they laugh  cause it brings them joy not to make fun. This is another classic movie  every one should see. So, with that, lets get to the story shall we: Just after delivering Christmas presents from around the world the  events depicted in the last scenes of  Rudolph the Red-Nosed   Reindeer ,  Santa Claus  receives a letter from his friend  Father  Time  asking  for help to find Happy the  Baby New Year  before midnight  "the 12th bong" on  New Year's Eve ...

This is a short of Olaf's first minutes of being alive in the movie Frozen  and it is a masterfully well done story by Pixar, the animation is perfect  and it goes very well with the story as it should.

Before he can do anything, however, she releases her cape, which flies and knocks him down the mountain side until he crashes into a tree.
