  • Are you in the Christmas spirit yet? Christine Baranski's Martha May Who is, and she's got the Christmas Lights to boot!
    How The Grinch Stole Christmas (2000): He's mean, he's green, and he doesn't like the Yuletide season one bit. Jim Carrey stars as the title character in this live-action adaptation of the classic children's story by Dr. Seuss. High atop Mt. Crumpet, The Grinch observes the residents of Whoville joyously preparing to celebrate Christmas. He decides he's had enough of all this happiness, and conspires to steal Christmas from Whoville! A fascinating film filled with Academy Award nominated sets and Academy Award winning make-up that perfectly captures the unique look of Dr. Seuss' world. A true holiday classic!

    I’m just finding out that the scene with the cannon was 100% practical and was played in reverse. The machine they used actually pulled the lights down without breaking any of them or shorting out the wires.

      Its not 100% practical, The initial cut of her starting to use it 1:21 isn't practical that's purely composite. However the transition to it "placing" the lights is. The reverse play was always vary obvious (especially in theaters).

    The way Martha-Mae drawls out ""Betty! HIIiii!" has more character in it than I've literally ever heard anywhere else, including like, Daniel-day-louis levels of actor. I at ONCE know what the actress is conveying. A ridiculously specific and overdramatic version of the neighbor we ALL know.

    Anyone else ever notice that Christine Baranski is the only one in this movie who didn’t need a lot of makeup to look like a Who? Everyone else had parts added to their face. She’s the only one they basically just put in regular makeup. The only thing they really changed is they gave her more of a lip which is weird because Whos don’t have much lip.

    During the holiday lighting contest, the Mayor declared Martha May Whovier the winner when the card handed to him by one of the judges clearly read that Betty Lou Who was the winner. I felt sorry for Betty, she went to extremes just to make her Christmas light display the best that year. Martha did the same with hers too, but Betty won the contest fair and square, and the Mayor robbed her of it just so he could win the heart of a woman who ultimately loved the Grinch over him. Just goes to show how powerful and corrupt the Mayor really is, willing to smash other people's hopes and dreams to pieces just to get what he wants.

In Eight Men Out, Irwin was Eddie Collins, who played in 2nd Base for the 1919 Black Sox, and Hot Shots, he was Buzz Harley, Charlie Sheen's father in the flashback. We see him as Uncle Teddy in Across the Universe starring Jim Sturgess, Evan Rachel Wood and Jim Anderson. In Rachel Get Married, Bill was Anne Hathaway and Rosemarie DeWitt's daddy, Paul Bushman.

    Both the live action Grinch movie and the live action Cat In The Hat movie are by far the best live action Dr. Seuss film adaptations.
    I'm not a huge fan of the Illumination animated Dr. Seuss films that we got after Audrey Geisel forbidden future live action Dr. Seuss adaptations on Ted's work because sometimes they can be misguided to the books, the animated TV specials and the first two live action Dr. Seuss films.
    I mean they did OK but they are not as good as the first three I was telling you about. Because with Horton Hears a Who, The Lorax and The Grinch reboot they all have tons of problems along with some animation errors and terrible voice acting. Unlike those three these two live action Dr. Seuss films worked so well they're actually hilarious. After all both the live action Grinch movie and the live action Cat In The Hat movie are like a cartoon world come to life where you have one world where it's Christmas all the time with a backstory of The Grinch, The Mayor and Martha May when they were kids and another world where it's like Austin Powers because the sets, props and costumes are bright and colorful. Plus they both give you a difference and comparison to both the books and TV specials. I also like Jim Carrey and Mike Myers in theses films and they both did a great job playing The Grinch and The Cat In the Hat and they are both great choices for the actors to play theses characters. For example if Tim Allen got the role to play The Cat In The Hat then The Santa Clause 2 would have never been in production and the live action Cat In The Hat movie staring Tim Allen would have been not only a box office failure but more like a Home Improvement Dr. Seuss episode than a comedy.
