Like. Not just the main cast. Jim Carrey as Olaf, I don’t like it but whatever. But then Catherine O’Hara? Meryl Streep? Billy Connolly? Timothy Spall? Jude Law?

And that’s just like, main named characters! The background characters are just casually people you recognize (especially if you were an adult when this movie came out). Craig Ferguson? Jennifer Coolidge? Dustin Hoffman? Luis Guzman? Technically Helena Bonham-Carter is also here??

And I need it to be known. I am not trying to recommend this movie to you (unless you want to go watch it, in which case please go do that it’s delightfully weird even if the adaptation is kind of wild). If you know the books, it’s barely recognizable as an adaptation, based on the structure of the plot. The author of the books has openly criticized the very existence of the movie (iirc he got kicked off this movie when they were making it; if you want a more faithful adaptation, watch the Netflix series).
