Description

Every who down in Who-ville likes Christmas a lot, but the Grinch who lived just north of Who-ville did NOT! So the cuddly as a cactus Grinch (with termites in his smile and garlic in his soul) tries to wipe out Christmas for the cheerful Who-villains, only to discover: maybe Christmas, he thought doesn't come from as store. Maybe Christmas perhaps means a little bit more! Magnificently narrated by Boris Karloff and animated by cartoon legend Chuck Jones, it's an award-winning Who-roast-beast-feast of a holiday classic!

Amazon.com essential video

Accept no substitutes. The 1966 television adaptation of Dr. Seuss' timeless book How the Grinch Stole Christmas!--about an anti-Santa who tries to heist the holiday only to learn a powerful lesson--is a classic in its own right, and looking better than ever in its 50th Birthday Deluxe Edition. (For those doing the math, the 50 years is counting from the book's 1957 publishing date rather than the show's broadcast date.) The most significant improvement is in the digital transfer, cleaning up fuzz and specks and restoring the proper colors to the program. While the awful earlier DVDs showed the Grinch in a mustard-yellow color, this edition restores his proper green gleam. Special features are mostly ported over from the previous DVD--the Horton Hears a Who program, a featurette on the songs, Phil Hartman's special edition version, pencil tests, etc. minus the commentary track--but there is a new 15-minute featurette, "Dr. Seuss and the Grinch: From Whoville to Hollywood." While it starts out as a fluff piece aimed at the younger set (interviews with kids, some rapping), it does provide some interesting information, including interviews with the widows of Theodore Geisel and Chuck Jones and clips of Geisel and Jones' Private Snafu. (No mention of Jim Carrey, however.) --David Horiuchi

Still grinchly great, after all these years! (2010-02-08)

I loved it when I was a kid, my kids loved it and I'm sure my grandkids will too!

Fantastic (2010-01-30)

My grandkids favorite christmas movie, fast shipping, and very pleased with the product, packaging etc.

Reminds me of Christmases Past (2010-01-24)

Before we were able to own any movie or favorite TV shows, we only had one opportunity a year to see this classic animated version of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Now, we can own it and can enjoy the original voices and music whenever you want! It's just as good as you remember and you can share it with younger generations who don't have the attention span for the full length movie.

Grinch (2010-01-21)

I bought this as a gift for a Ginch freak and he was so excitied to have his own copy

Dr. Suess - How the Grinch Stole Christmas/Horton Hears a Who DVD (2010-01-09)

The classic cartoons are wonderful & give your kids a great message. The only problem is the menu screen to view the movies is not that user friendly, I had to help my tech savvy kids figure out how to view the different movies. It's not that bad though, it just could've been designed better
