Mistakes

When Rizzo falls down the chimney lands on the goose at Bob Cratchit's house, he burns his feet. When he is shown next to Gonzo, his feet are smoking. If you look closely, you can see the holes in the puppet's feet where the smoke comes out. See more...

Trivia

At the end of the film when Scrooge is going round being nice to everyone, as he's on his way to the Cratchit's house, we see in the background a shop called "Mickelwhite's." This is Michael Caine's real surname. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry In the scene where Marley and Marley visit Scrooge, they mention children from the orphanage having teddy bears. This wouldn't have happened in Victorian Britain as teddy bears weren't invented until the early 20th century. [It was only named 'the teddy bear' in the 20th Century (Teddy Roosevelt) but it did exist in Victorian times, but referred to as a stuffed toy.]
Entry In the beginning, when Rizzo says something like, "A blue furry thing can't possibly be Charles Dickens", look at his left arm and you can see a wire moving it. [It's a puppet. That's how it works.]
Entry When Scrooge tells Dr. Honeydew and Beaker he doesn't want to donate to charity, Beaker gives Scrooge the middle finger when they are leaving. [It only looks that way. Beaker, like most cartoon characters, even though he's not a "cartoon," only has four digits on each hand.]
Entry At the end when Scrooge brings the turkey to the Crachet's house, the turkey is raw. But moments later when they all sit at the table it is already cooked. [Actually it isn't moments later, we see Scrooge and all the Muppets enter the house, then there is a shot of outside where Gonzo/Dickens tells us what happens after this, then when the camera cuts back into the house everyone is settled at the table and some of the people who were first there have left, so we know at least some time has passed, possibly enough time to cook the turkey.]
