Yes it’s May 2009 and for some reason a poster has been released for the inevitable December showing of Disney’s A Christmas Carol.

I know what you’re thinking! How many different versions do there need to be before someone stops? Well since that wonderful thing called “public domain” it seems that the world and his wife can bash out a version every five seconds (I’m surprised The Asylum haven’t joined in the fun).

Anyway this version “stars” Jim Carrey in Robert Zemeckis’s performance-capture film. Sadly this means that Mr Carrey is playing Ebeneezer Scrooge along with the 3 ghosts which is somewhat foolish.

Zemeckis tried doing that with Tom Hanks in The Polar Express and failed miserably (was I the only one confused?).
