  • November 27, 2008
    Loved this when I was a kid and even then it kind of depressed me. I know it was the 70s but how the hell can anyone get excited about earning 50 cents or even winning $50? I'll admit that's my own baggage. The old school puppetry is still great and the Riverbottom Nightmare Band...( read more) still rocks 30 years later. I'll openly admit that most of the appeal for Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas is its nostalgia but it's still fun (even if it is hokey) and doesn't really overstay its welcome.

    I don't know if kids today could see past the puppets with visible strings, but this movie has some catchy tunes, and a good moral story. If nothing else, it's good for a laugh.

    ... a bit disappointing for a big muppets fan
  • January 11, 2008
    When I was a kid, this was our FAVOURITE book, year round. When they made it into a movie, I was already much older so couldn't really 'appreciate' it as much as my younger sisters. I still think it's a cool Christmas story.

    All hail the Riverbottom Nightmare Band! Before Fraggle Rock Jim Henson and the CBC teamed up to bring us this 70s gem, which explains why the otter in the yellow hat sounds like one of the Mackenzie brothers. Good Day Eh.
