Jealous Bastard
i'm relatively sure i started a thread last year, and i think it behooves us to remind ourselves of all the great christmas cartoons that are so much damn fun to watch around this time of year.
try and provide links to the cartoons themselves if they're available on youtube or google video, or at least give a link to more information. i'll start with a few of my favorites, several of which are fairly well known but nonetheless awesome as hell:
"christmas comes but once a year." - pretty sure this one's in public domain, but when old men break into orphanages and start pretending to be santa claus to get close to little kids, everyone wins!
"the night b4 christmas." - no video for this one unfortunately, but i saw this a couple of years ago on cartoon network and was thoroughly impressed. it's a hip-hop variation of "night before christmas" about an elf that wants to be a rapper. it's brilliant, and totally fun.
"mr. magoo's christmas carol." - ringle, ringle, coins when they jingle! i was shocked when i finally saw this how good the music is. "ringle ringle," "the lord's bright blessing," "all alone in the world," and the one about razzleberry dressing? hell yes. christmas eve magic. this is just the ending, but if you can catch the whole thing on tv, DO IT. interesting footnote: mr. magoo is most often voted by the public as their favorite scrooge.
even blind, the man can act.
"huh-huh-humbug." - this is half of the beavis and butthead christmas special, in which beavis plays a version of ebenezer scrooge who is butthead's boss at burger world, and who wants only to watch his favorite porno: "ebenezer screw." ultimate best line from this whole thing? "in life, i was your partner. now i'm some dead guy with cool chains."
finally, a weird addition, but my favorite animated holiday commercial: the flintstones pebbles commercial. 'tis the season to be sharing, fred.
so i'll stop there! tell me about your favorites. i'm a junkie for this stuff.
