What a wondrous time of year\\

Merry, Merry Christmas\\
Oh, what a merry Christmas day!
It was the year [[TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation 1983]]. For years, MickeyMouse, a once mighty force in animation, was but a memory. After his fallout of popularity in the [[TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1940s]], and his final appearances in the 1950s, it seemed like there was no future for the mouse.
But then this film came along and changed that—well, sort of.

Scrooge [=McDuck=] (in the role of—take a wild guess—[[spoiler:[[TheDanza Ebenezer Scrooge!]]]]) carries the bulk of the film instead.
Debuting with the 1983 re-release of ''Disney/TheRescuers'', this adaptation was fairly well received, but many moviegoers were obviously disappointed that the film had virtually nothing to do with Mickey at all. Although that feeling might have been a contribution to him coming back after that, since people wanted to see more of him. In 1984 it began airing annually around Christmas on network television, becoming a holiday favorite for many years.

!!Tropes Used in This Film:
* AdaptationDistillation: Shortens the already short story. This causes some points to be lost, while others condensed.
** Tiny Tim's BadFuture fate is shown in a few seconds, without a word.
** CompressedAdaptation: Can also be considered this.

* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Scrooge's reaction to meeting the Ghost of Christmas Past, played by Jiminy Cricket. The Ghost's response is that if men were measured by kindness, Scrooge would be no bigger than a speck of dust.
