Continuity mistake: When Scrooge walks into the Cratchit home at the end, there is a "Home Sweet Home" plaque on the wall. The shot then cuts away from it. The next time the plaque is visible, its lettering has changed.
Mickey's Christmas Carol (1983)
Directed by: Burny Mattinson
Starring: Alan Young, Hal Smith, Wayne Allwine, Will Ryan
Continuity mistake: When Scrooge wakes on Christmas morning, he puts his foot through his hat. It has a huge hole in the top when he leaves home, but when he puts it on Tiny Tim's head, it's undamaged.
Continuity mistake: When Jiminy Cricket (The Ghost of Christmas Past) jumps on to Scrooge's bedside table, the time on the alarm clock reads 2:00. In the next shot, when the curtains move and Scrooge hears the dinging, the time reads 1:00, and when we return to Jiminy Cricket in the next shot, the time reads 2:00.
Trivia: Minnie Mouse doesn't have a single line of dialogue in the film.
Scrooge: What's she cooking, a canary? Surely they have more food than that. Look on the fire.
Ghost of Christmas Present: Huh, where? Oh, that's your laundry.
Belle: Ebeneezer?
Scrooge: Yes, Isabelle?
Belle: My eyes are closed, my lips are puckered, and I'm standing under the mistletoe.
Scrooge: You're also standing on my foot.
Marley: Ebenezer? Remember when I was alive I robbed from widows and swindled the poor?
Scrooge: Yes, and all in the same day. Oh, you had class, Jacob.
Marley: Ha-yuk, yup... Er, no, no! I was wrong. And so, as punishment, I'm forced to carry these heavy chains for eternity! Maybe even longer.
