| | Customer Reviews: Grinch is Great! (02 July 2010)The Grinch is always a great Christmas time show and movie in our home. We have both. Grew up watch the 30 minute version every Christmas and now it is just tradition! Mean Grinch (19 March 2010)How The Grinch Stole Christmas is twenty-five minutes and seventeen seconds long and originally aired on December 18, 1966. The main story is that the Grinch has been living on the mountain for over a half a century and can no longer stand the people down in Whoville celebrating Christmas; mainly he can't stand the noise, noise, noise. He gets an awful idea when he sees his dog Max covered in snow in a Santa Clause like way. So he quickly makes a quick Santa suit and hat. Since reindeers are scarce he ties a branch to Max's head and quickly gathers up some bags and put them on a sled and the two head to Whoville. Once in Whoville the Grinch still everything that has to do with the Christmas holiday. He almost gets away with it when Cindy Lou Who (who is no more then two) comes out from here bedroom to investigate a noise. She spots Santa taking the Christmas tree and asks why Santa. The Grinch thinks of a quick lie and gives Cindy a glass of water and send her to her room. The Grinch finish his job and takes all the full bags to the top of Mount Crumpit. Once at the top of the mountain the Grinch put a hand to his ear to hear all the people in Whoville cry boo hoo. Instead he hears the people of Whoville sing Welcome Christmas and is puzzled that Christmas came. After some deep thoughts the true meaning of Christmas comes to the Grinch and the Grinch returns all the Christmas decorations. The Whoville, who seem to be very forgiving, allow the Grinch to cut and serve the roast beast. Also included in this DVD is the animated special is Horton Hears A Who is twenty-five minutes long and released in 1970. One day Horton is splashing in the lake when he hears a noise and begins looking around and sees a small speck floating in the air saying help. He rescues the small speck and strikes up a conversation with Dr. H. Hoovey. Later on Jane Kangaroo sees Horton talking to a flower and think he is nuts. She goes out of her way to put a stop to it. Her first attempt is foil when Horton finds the flower among the millions of other flowers that it was dropped into. In Jane Kangaroo second attempt she secures the Wickersham family aid (a bunch of monkey\apes) and they put Horton in a cage and try to destroy the speck in a pot of boiling water. Dr. H. Hoovey gathers all of the people of Whoville to yell to save their world. The people scream: We Are Here Finally one boy yells yolp and everyone hears the townsfolk and Horton is set free. In a way this is sort of social issues to it. How the small voice of a minority is put down by ignorant people on the majority. Both How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Horton Hears a Who gets an AAA+++. DVD FEATURS How The Grinch Stole Christmas! Scene Selections 1. Special Features 2. Grinch Trivia Game 3.
