Macklemore Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Don't think either could make Eeyore happy, but the Grinch is definitely a bigger asshole than Jack. Jack would try harder but I don't know if he'd make him happy. Tough choice, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSJRuss Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 If this is Grinch after his heart grows three sizes, then I totally see him taking the win. He was charismatic, funny, and very giving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Jack is not a bad guy, but as the embodiment of Halloween, bringing cheer is completely outside his understanding. When he tried to bring cheer by taking Santa's job, he failed miserably. It's just not in the fabric of his being... and if it was, he would not be the Pumpkin King. Gotta go with Grinch because, in the end, he gets the spirit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This slot is going to be a tough run for any character of ill will. I expect they will feed wins to other teams. The challenges are designed for holiday spirit and cheer.

DSkillz Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 If this is Grinch at the climax of his story and beyond, he definitely has a shot. Jack, while always a nice guy, only really knows how to scare people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergy_Berg Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Everyone in Halloweentown (ville? verse? cul-de-sac?) really enjoys the Halloween festivities orchestrated by Jack. He brings lots of joy that way. Winnie the Pooh and friends probably haven't tried a Halloween spooktacular the likes of which Jack can muster. He may actually be able to beat the Grinch here. Think about it, Pooh and friends have huge hearts but Eeyore is still constantly depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergy_Berg Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I think I voted for the Grinch and just now convinced myself that Jack should win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking a Halloween spooktacular would end up scaring the shit out of Eeyore. But who knows, maybe he's ready to embrace his inner emo goth.

Vincento Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I feel Jack has a better chance at this. Yeah, he failed to bring Christmas cheer to the masses before, but Grinch never even tried to do it (he was just a guest at one party if i recall correctly) and just because he never failed doesn't mean he's automatically going to be better at it. Jack is charismatic, extroverted, a natural born performer and he has a lot of experience organizing holidays (eeyore was sad cause everyone forgot his birthday, so a birthday party may be one way to win). By the end of the movie Jack is made aware that fright type parties aren't good for everyone. He's intelligent enough to do better second time. Plus Grinch is shy and likes to keep to himself even when he does get friends, he will probably not know what to do being the one to reach out to someone. I'm going to go with the guy that at least has experience for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
