Who is the BEST Ebenezer Scrooge?

[DarkImage4]

At this time of year, I always get into some kind of conversation about who is "THE" best Scrooge. I'm curious what you all think...

Alistair Sim
Albert Finney
Patrick Stweart
George C. Scott
Michael Caine
Mr. Magoo
Bill Murray
Scrooge McDuck

Remember we're talking about the way Scrooge was portrayed, not the version of A Christmas Carol as a whole (that's for another poll)....

Can I vote for my boss. :lol:

Although we mainly call him Grinch, he has been called Scrooge as well.

 

[tiggerlover1971]

darn it I cant vote I have two that i love because they are different Bill murray because its a funny version and Patrick Stewart because I thought he was great as a classic scrooge

 

[WDWFREAK53]

Gotta vote for Albert Finney on this one...

(I feel that this is the best version of "A Christmas Carol" ever made though )

(Muppet Christmas Carol is up there too)

Oddly enough it is for me too. The Disney Muppet Movies were really top notch.

I answered George C. Scott for the simple reason that I hate that man... I think that Patrick Stewart acted the part best, but I just adore him so much I can't possibly think of him as a "bad" man. He's so hot! Kisses to my Patrick! :kiss:

But Scrooge became one of the best loved characters in town in the end. :animwink:

It's a toss up between Bill Murray and Scrooge McDuck. I like them both. They're both such apart of the holidays for me. Hard to say which is better.

I voted for Bill Murray...:lol:

Here is why... He reminds me of soooo many TV execs I have delt with in real life... :lol: and Scrooged is the modern day scrooge movie.

Plus Bill and his brothers are from here.

I like it, and I try to catch it every time its on cable :sohappy: :xmas:

George C. Scott! The jumping on the bed was priceless

Hey Jerry! I know someone who grew up with Bill Murray here in Chicago! She says he's the exact same person he was back then, just taller

 

[WDWspider]

Where's Fred Flinstone. :lol: :hurl:

Well, even though Scrooged is one of my favorite B-movies I gotta say Scrooge McDuck. I mean, he IS Scrooge for a reason!!

This is not a poll option, but I can't resist to say Michael Eisner.

 

[Grumpy56]

Alister Sim, without a doubt. Now how many of you have actually seen him in it? Can't vote on this one unless you do!

 

[FigmentJedi]

I voted for Michael Caine. If they had Ebeneezer Urkle from Sunday's Episode of the simpsons, I might of voted for him too.

 

[DarkImage4]

As tough a decision this is for me to make...I go with Albert Finney...followed by Alistair Sim & Michael Caine.

When I hear the name Scrooge, I picture only one name on that list: Alistair Sim.
