( So of course I'm posting it on TRIBE , so fewer peeps see it , and thus less embarassament , in the event it's not such a good idea after all. )

As you should be aware , this month there's going to be a NEW movie version of "A Christmas Carol" ( All motion capture animations & Jim Carrey and 3-D & Mega-Screen complexity. )

Here's the rub...have you seen any of the print ads or posters ? Well , let me hip you , it's called "DISNEY's A Christmas Carol" ... apparently Ol' Chuckles Dickens DIDN'T write it after all! Doesn't that just bake your potato?

Now , I'm not suggesting anything with EVIL intent , but perhaps a nose pinching! Here's the idea: We get Dickens cast members in full regalia "picketing" the film ! ( Of course you'd need flyers to hand out. ).With signs reading: "Unfair To Charles Dickens!" , etc. Chanting "Bah Humbug!" etc.

Now , I'm not against Disney or the Film itself , just the fact that the title , will continue to make people even more illiterate in the arena of proper literature. ( Ask kids: who wrote "The Jungle Book" ? )

Even funnier - if you are among those whom remember the religious nuts picketing "Life of Brian" - would be to hand out little pamphlets , who's title reads " Who was Charles Dickens? " , and then have a list of facts ending with: "Author of the short story "A Christmas Carol".

Just a bug in the ear. ( I'm good at coming up with this sort of rubbish , but horrible at making it happen.)
