ANAL-YSIS

It’s never too early to start whoring out Christmas, Jesus having died for our massive corporate profits and all that. And while Robert Zemeckis’ dead-on Dickens adaptation lacks the wise-cracking anthropomorphs that are normally requisite for CG animation success, a) it is in 3D and b) it is riding on the Disney marketing machine, so expect a healthy bow in the low 40 millions.
