For the record, I love the 1966 cartoon and enjoyed watching it almost every year. This remake, on the other hand, is weak like some is missing. It does not have the warmth the original cartoon has. Sure, I can understand the film makers want to make the Grinch less scary and remove the result of him mistreating Max, but several aspects here are just too poor or awkward to the source material. I also have a personal dislike of this version of Cindy Lou as appears to be more energetic as in the 1960s cartoon, she was depicted as an innocent toddler.
If someone wants me to purchase this thing, count me out. I'd rather watch the CG remake of "Horton Hears a Who".
