 Jim Carrey and Ron Howard's Grinch: yay or nay?  Ron Howard's live-action adaptation of How the Grinch Stole Christmas: a tremendously lucrative film (its domestic total adjusts to around 415 million) which seems to have found a certain footing among the aired-on-television-every-year holiday canon, but which also seriously gets under certain people's skin with its stranger elements (Baby Grinch, the Whos' pinched faces). In general, for you: yay or nay? _________________   1. The Lost City of Z - 2. A Cure for Wellness - 3. Phantom Thread - 4. T2 Trainspotting - 5. Detroit - 6. Good Time - 7. The Beguiled - 8.

Re: Jim Carrey and Ron Howard's Grinch: yay or nay? I've always thought The Grinch was ugly, soulless, and unfunny.

Re: Jim Carrey and Ron Howard's Grinch: yay or nay? Big nay. But my favorite Christmas movie is Jingle All The Way, so who am I to judge?
