ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!

Christmas-Reviewer BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 300 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.This dull sequel should just melt and go away. What is shocking to me was that Saturday Night Live;s Lorne Michaels produced this and the jokes on this cartoon fall flat as a pancake. The special begins with a musical number showing that Beansboro Elementary School is canceled for the day due to a seven-inch snowfall. While the adults incessantly complain about the problems snow and ice cause, the children enjoy the opportunity to play outside.The scene then shifts to Holly DeCarlo, a lonely young girl and aspiring magician with only one friend, a tone-deaf, somewhat geeky character named Charles who has a knack for climatology. While practicing a magic act with Charles, the wind blows Holly's hat off her head, out the window, and onto a snowman who comes to life as Frosty, thus revealing that Holly's hat was "that old silk hat" featured in the original song and previous adaptations.Now does that sound exciting of course not. This cartoon is slow and boring. I am not sure why Rankin/Bass were not involved in this special. They created the original classic "Frosty the Snowman" cartoon as well as other classic Christmas cartoons. This cartoon sure could of used their brand of Christmas Magic. Lorne Michaels is no Rankin/Bass.The story never comes together. It also seems to end rather quickly. It seems to me that it started off as maybe as one hour program but it was edited down. I love the original so much that this was a major disappointment. It was like getting coal in my stocking.

Scarecrow-88 The magic just isn't there although the voicework effort tries to lift this sequel-of-sorts out of the doldrums. What hurts, I think, besides the underwhelming animation (which isn't awful just not stimulating) is the rather blah story. A businessman voiced with unscrupulous relish by Doyle-Murray sells a snow-melting product in a bottle that takes over a small town which threatens the life of Frosty, the Snowman (voiced with good energy by John Goodman) as little Holly (voiced by Mad Men's Liz Moss) tries to help him save Christmas from getting rid of a significant part of the holiday season. With a grumpy teacher voiced with nasty curmudgeon attitude from the talented comedienne, Andrea Martin, veteran genius comedian, Jonathan Winters, as the host (his likeness in the animated character captures his warm twinkle and winsome smile but it pales to the actor himself), and Jan Hooks as Holly's mom; the cast try to inject some life into their animated characters, but the story just doesn't leap from the screen and tug on our hearts. Goodman gives it a good go, though, but nothing at all extraordinary or special makes any impression. It is almost immediately forgotten after its over. That this wasn't following the original in its time, resurfacing thanks to its inclusion with the superior first Frosty in a recent box set release with far more recognized classics, doesn't help. In the early 90s, when animated Christmas specials weren't commonplace, further resulted in its burial.

SnoopyStyle Jonathan Winters as the narrator visits Beansborough's annual carnival but it may not happen this winter. Little Holly would rather play with her magic set. A heavy wind blows her magic hat which lands on a snowman. Frosty (John Goodman) comes alive with her hat. Mr. Twitchell has invented a spray Summer Wheeze which disappears snow and he sends out his trucks to spray his invention. Frosty is in danger. Holly has to convince everybody that snow is actually good.The animation looks simplistic like old 70s kids show. However, it's different from the original Frosty the Snowman. The original is softer and more charming. This animation looks uglier. The spray actually seems like a good idea although Twitchell doesn't make sense. He's a weird villain who is battling nature. The whole thing seems like a late-night writing session gone wrong. This is way too stupid without the charm of the original. Also the songs are pretty weak. This is one Christmas special that doesn't need to be repeated.

kill-the-boxtrolls I saw this film the first time on TV 2 years ago while my sister was with a babysitter and I thought it was not bad. I watched it a long time ago when I was like 7 (Years) old and I thought it was still not bad but I got this movie on DVD from the library to watch with my sister and with somebody's 3 year old and oh no, I noticed this film was quite awful. The 3 year old could not understand it that he got up to play a little dress up with dirty clothes in just 2 minutes. 5 minutes later, my sister's eyes were tired and then a moment later she got up to play outside. I was left alone watching this and I thought it was terrible absurd for a holiday film. It's like the worst Christmas movie you have ever seen and a bad sequel off Frosty the snowman and a horrible rip-off for some of the characters off of Charley Brown like they edited them and take all the comedy off. I did not laugh at this film at all, I am so tired thinking about it yesterday so I played my DS towards the end of the film because I kept taking my eyes off it. Afterwards I went to go watch Little house on the prairie for like 2 and a half hour and still didn't get my gorgeous 30 minutes back. This film definitely takes your time away and makes you want to watch something for a whole 5 days to get your life back. This film has two choices. It needs to go to Hell, or it needs to be taken off air forever and ever. It was not the worst worst worst film but quite beyond that. It was more decidedly awful. My rates for this film Plot: Quite terrible and incomprehensible. It's like Frosty incomprehends me snowman. I didn't get the point of how they use something to disappear snow and all. Grade: D+ Animation: Bad. It was like… a Tarantula or some foolish person made the animation. Grade: D Characters: Bad rip-offs of Charley brown again and… Hard to explain lets forget the characters. Grade: C Voices: The voices were OK but Holly, she sounded like a 7 and a 6 year old but she looks like a 8, 9, 10, 11 year old kind of. Her voice should have sounded a little more mature. Grade: -B Movements: They were bad like somebody skipping 888 percent from place to the corner. Just terrible! Grade: D+ Script: Incomprehensible script as again same with the plot. I nearly got the whole script it just made me feel like Somebody… Like I'm dead. The script almost totally killed me. Grade: -D Movie: The whole movie is absurd and terrible so that is all. Grade: E Song: The songs were not bad but they did not fit the music. Make more effort to them and the movie. Main rating: D Bad for a movie. Somebody please cancel the air and continue playing The snowman and Frosty the snowman and winterwonder land versions should be kept forever I loved them all to death! But the legend of frosty the snowman was nearly bad too but a little better than this. I think people should pack up making these frosty the snowman movies stink like crap. I can't say bad words but for this one has got to be gone and melted. Bring back the older ones and stop making these poopy craps! I thought this movie was made in the middle of the 80s it seemed like but they do not get them Ugh!
