Is anybody else unreasonably annoyed that they got rid of the love song to shorten the film. I loved it as a child, its my favourite Christmas film. And the song "the love has gone" is now edited out!

Nah, it’s a meh song among a collection of absolute bangers. Film is better without.

I said what I said.

I agree, it's an awful song.

my family frequently exclaim "why, it's old Fozziwig's rubber chicken factory!" when arriving at a party 🤣

I need to do this!

Couldn't help a 'light the lamp, not the rat!' this week, when my mum showed me and the children a very Rizzo-like toy rat in the garden centre 😂

You’d be surprised how many times I say “ Light the lamp, not the rat!” And nobody understands what Im talking about !

We watched this as our Christmas film last year. I've never seen it before! Absolutely superb. Can't comment on the missing song though.

@Stupidwolf Muppets Christmas Carol is my favourite Christmas film and this is a great song (not sure why so many on here don’t like it), there was even a Facebook group dedicated to bringing back the song a few years ago. I’m so pleased it’s back on Disney+! Even if you don’t like the song it literally makes the story make sense in that it is the moment Belle and Scrooge part ways. It also ties into the end song too so I found it so bizarre when they cut it.

as a child in the cinema watching this for the first time, I got emotional during that song and it brought Scrooge into a new light!

in summary I love it too! 😍

Yes! 'Thank you for making me a part of this!' 🐀

i used to know most of the film word for word.. making me want to watch it again to see how much i remember.

Its one of my favourite films but i haven't actually watched it in a while, bad form!
