Muppet Christmas Carol - More Sci-Fi than you think?!

Okay, hear me out, folks. I know, The Muppet Christmas Carol. Criminally underrated, BTW, but that's not the point. Everyone sees it as a charming, faithful Dickens adaptation with Muppets. But what if I told you there's a tiny sci-fi element hiding in plain sight? It's the Ghosts. Specifically, the Ghost of Christmas Present. Now, I'm a huge believer that the best sci-fi uses fantastical elements to explore real-world themes, and the Ghosts definitely do that, but let's look at the Ghost of Christmas Present. He straight up manipulates time and space. He shrinks Scrooge down! He shows him events happening simultaneously in different locations. That's some serious temporal/spatial warping tech right there! Think about it: advanced enough tech + ancient wisdom could easily be misinterpreted as magic. Like, maybe they are using highly advanced technology to manipulate perception and travel through different dimensions or something? I'm not saying Dickens was secretly plotting a sci-fi epic, but the way they portray the Ghosts, especially Present, feels… intentionally ambiguous. Are they truly supernatural beings, or beings with technology so advanced, they appear supernatural? It would be kind of cool if Gonzo, our trusty Charles Dickens narrator, was actually a time-traveling observer, or a robot from the future sent to ensure the timeline stays intact, making sure Scrooge learns his lesson. Yeah no, I probably went too far with the robot thing but the potential is there! Anyway, just a thought I had while watching it again last night. Tell me I'm wrong (or right!), but I think it adds another layer of awesome to what's already an incredible movie. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna watch this for the 500th time. And maybe re-read A Christmas Carol too... for research purposes, naturally.
