Yes! He was less crabbed about his penury and more decisive. He was a miser because it made him a good living, and by God, he liked that!
The first thing that charmed me about his portrayal was his laugh. Scrooge tends to be acted as a very frowny guy, but Scott had these half-smiles and under-breath chuckles showed us a man who had a sense of humor. Just not a nice one. I find that kind of new angle on a classic character a real delight.
