12 Scrooge McDuck Christmas Stories, Ranked!
While not a Christmas movie, I watched DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp many times during the holiday season, associating the film with that time of year by extension.
No Disney character is more tied to Christmas than ‘Unca Scrooge.’ Created by Carl Barks in 1947, Scrooge made his first appearance in the Christmas story ‘Christmas on Bear Mountain’ and was named after the classic character Ebenezer Scrooge from Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
Since his debut, Scrooge has celebrated many Christmases with his nephew Donald Duck, his grandnephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and other family members. While Scrooge often plays the grumpy and stingy uncle, there’s no doubt he’s warmed up to his relatives and enjoys spending time with them (though he’s still reluctant to part with his money—that hasn’t changed!).
As we count down the days to Christmas, it’s the perfect time for a few trips to Duckburg and Bear Mountain to get into the holiday spirit with some classic Duck stories starring your favorite Uncle!
