In 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas', which of these does Grinch despise?

How the Grinch Stole Christmas is a 2000 American Christmas fantasy comedy film directed by Ron Howard and written by Jeffrey Price and Peter S. Seaman. Based on Dr. Seuss's 1957 book of the same name, it was the first Dr. Seuss book to be adapted into a full-length feature film. The film is narrated by Anthony Hopkins and stars Jim Carrey in the title role along with Jeffrey Tambor, Christine Baranski, Bill Irwin and Molly Shannon in supporting roles, as well as introducing Taylor Momsen as Cindy Lou Who.

Grinch, a misanthropic and devious green-furred creature who despises Christmas and the Whos of Whoville. It is revealed in his origin story that he started to hate Christmas after his school classmates mocked him for trying to shave his face. Before Carrey was cast to play the Grinch, Jack Nicholson and Eddie Murphy were briefly considered.

He also hated gifts and children and noise

Denise Currie

These questions are getting worse. He didn't just detest Christmas he detested just about everything, but as the title is The Grinch Who Stole Christmas the answer was obvious

Yet another inane, trite ridiculously simple question... Is there no approval process for these questions?

Another really hard one from Carol.

For Bad Nora -- She doesn't look that bad to me. I like her.

For Richard Ruffner -- I love your pix of Grumpy Cat (I think she was great) with the skull.

But... he hated all of those

Kat

Considering he also hated children and gifts, I was ready to second-guess my answer, because Christmas just seemed too easy. (I didn't, as it turned out.)

9/10 this series and 19/20 for the day. Quitting while I'm ahead.

Bad Nora

I'm starting to understand the comments about Ms. White's questions. It's unclear how they pass the publication process,

Richard Ruffner

He despised all those things!

Richard G Schwartz

I liked the film.

Of course we know who wrote this question.

spower, There is no approval process for questions from Carol Whites, David Wilkes, brian I, and quite possibly Zain. They are all surrogates for Quizzclub and are not reviewed like questions submitted by actual players. Check their stats. They never change despite constant questions bearing their name.
