Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

[edit] ghost of christmas future

who here besides me thinks that the ghost of the future in this adaptation looks a lot like death from ingmar bergman's the seventh seal? because i watched this 4 or 6 times recently and i noticed that the hand looked alot like the skin of death from that film. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.175.1.237 (talk) 00:37, 24 December 2006 (UTC).

I've never seen 'the seventh seal', however there's a blooper in the film. Scrooge's mother dies given him birth (the cause of his father's hatred for him), yet Scrooge has a younger sister 'Fan'. She could only be, his half-sister, perhaps this blooper could be added to the article. GoodDay 01:15, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

I just watched the movie and I can't recall any reference to Fan being his *younger* sister. 70.66.236.249 20:08, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Removed the younger sister blooper, it's only in a book version (Fan being a younger sister). [THE book version, in fact (i.e., Dickens' original). Kostaki mou 03:27, 7 February 2007 (UTC)] You're correct it's not mentioned in the movie. GoodDay 00:48, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Scrooge does, however, refer to her as "Little Fan" in the movie. It's still a blooper: The ghost says that Scrooge's father never forgave him for his mother's death, while the scene with Fan makes it clear that he did indeed!
