The Very First Adaptations of A Christmas Carol (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before there was film or TV, there were stage versions of A Christmas Carol, and the two I'm talking about today came out in 1844, just weeks after the book was first published. Clearly, this story was a hit right away. What did the very first adaptations of the story like? Full text of plays A Christmas Carol; Or, The Miser's Warning! by C.Z.

It's the second half of my Christmas Carol Hot Takes episode, and we've got some truly hilarious Letterboxd reviews this time around. In this one, I cover everythng from 1978-1992, as well as An American Carol. I struggle with vague metaphors, a truly shocking take on Bill Murray, and people who don't like the Muppets.Have Christmas Carol hot takes for a future episode? Feel free to leave them, and I'll cover them.
Well... I guess I have to talk about the Ebenezer news (opens the original)

The poster and first trailer for Johnny Depp's Ebenezer dropped today, and a lot of people are wondering what I think. I decided to release an episode explaining how I will be approaching this, in light of the allegations against Johnny Depp. After that, I break down the trailer. Content Warning: I talk about the allegations against Johnny Depp and how they affect my approach to talking about the film, but I do not talk abou them in detail.
