Scrooged (1988)
Dir - Richard Donner
And this is my second favorite adaption. Murray is hysterical and it's a really fun take on the same old story.
Bonus tally: Between this two versions of A Christmas Carol I watched an episode of George Burns Comedy Week from the 80s on YouTube that's called Christmas Carol II: The Sequel. This sees Scrooge go too far on the giving side and is once again visited by the three ghosts who show his the error of his new pushover ways. It's pretty great and the cast includes Roddy McDowell, James Whitmore, Samantha Eggar, Ed Bagley Jr and more. The quality is kind of crappy but you can watch the half hour below.
