I forgot one:

The Year Without A Santa Claus, which Im watching right now *sings along with Heat and Cold miser*

But what's really..eh I dunno...odd...they made a SEQUEL!! Apperantly WB got the rights to all the old Rankin Bass stuff and decided that Heat and Cold Miser needed their own film.

It's called The Miser Brothers Christmas. Mickey Rooney even reprises his role as Santa from the 1974 film. That premiers tonight on ABC family (and no doubt repeated a gazillion times). It'll definatly be interesting (the trailers look like they repeat the Heat/Cold Miser song from Year Without A Santa Claus).

Edit:
After watching Miser Brother's christmas....well...it's interesting.

Spoiler:

It's not the best animated film but it'll definatly become a fan favorite. The baby raindeer are absolutly adorable and seeing Snow and Heat as children was interesting as well..

Edit: After watching Miser Brother's christmas....well...it's interesting. Spoiler: Instead of being sick with a cold he's out with a bad back after being in a sledding accident trying out his new sled (which was built by Tinsel, the mechanically inclind daughter of Jingle) and getting in the way of a battle between the Miser brothers (who now live next door to each other!). Mother Nature then suggests that Snow and Heat help Santa out while he's in bed with the bad back. Unfortunatly their somewhat evil brother, The North Wind, wants Santa's job. He's jelous of him and tries everything he can to sabatoge Snow and Heat...especially after North Wind failed to kill Santa (he had his clones sabatog the sled.). After a touching song sung by Mrs. Claus about siblings needing to love each other, Snow and Heat get along. Much to the annoyance of North Wind. On Christmas Eve Tinsel discovers the sabatog and everyone realises what the North Wind is up to. Well except for Santa cuz um he's on his way to deliver gifts, bad back and all. Tinsel rebuilds her sleigh and has the Miser brothers go find Santa. The sleigh is led by all the baby raindeer (of which we only learn the name of one, Nobbler). Yada yada save the day..yada. North Wind is sentenced to spend several thousand years doing chores while the miser brothers make the nice list. It's not the best animated film but it'll definatly become a fan favorite. The baby raindeer are absolutly adorable and seeing Snow and Heat as children was interesting as well.. __________________ Last edited by Raph's Girl; 12-13-2008 at 10:56 PM.
