There's one Christmas trope I never really understood: Adults don't believe in Santa Clause, but he actually exists and delivers presents to their children every year. Wouldn't the adults realize that he exists?! Wouldn't they notice that every year they'd find presents under the tree that they didn't buy for their children and wonder, "Who the hell left these here?!"

Even in one of my favorite Christmas movies like the Polar Express runs by this logic. It's just really odd and jarring to me ever since I noticed how insane that it is. If we were to say that EVERY child in the world that receives gifts has 2 parents, do the parents just see the gifts that they didn't buy and assume the other parent was responsible? Do they never ask questions about the randomly appearing gifts? **spoiler for the Polar Express below** Hell, in the Polar Express, it almost breaks me at the end when the boy receives a gift hidden under the tree wrapped in a little box with a letter FROM Santa himself. Both parent's are there and see the letter and box, and inside is what they believe to be a "broken" bell that makes no sound (because it can not be rung or heard by nonbelievers), and never once do they wonder who gave that to them. They still think Santa doesn't exist and doesn't question anything. Just a, "Sorry son, looks like someone gave you a broken bell..." WHO?!

Honestly, I like that the big CEO character isn't an asshole for once. He respects being told no, though he's hopeful for that to change at some point in the future, he puts on the costume to pay respect to the traditions of the location, and he never engages in sleazy corpo behavior to get what he wants, like buying the mortgage or paying off an inspector or something stupid. The conflict comes from within the family instead, because one member sees dollar signs instead of loyalty.

Before Jesus had anything to do with it, Christmas was simply the celebration of Winter harvest and people had extra food that they had no more space in storage so they made big feasts and exchanged it to each other as gifts. Around that time of year, the Norse God, Odin goes riding in his flying chariot, driven by reindeer and people would leave treats for the elk in their snow boots by their front doors and Odin would leave a present for them. The material gifts were things they made for each other, like scarves and sweaters to keep warm.

The three fingers in this movie kills me. In animation you typically draw animated characters with three fingers because it can be difficult to animate 4 fingers. Figuring out where each finger can be hard and look clumsy, so they cut a finger out to simplify things. In this cartoon however every character is drawn to look as realistic as they possibly can. Their clothes and bodies are overly detailed. There's nothing really cartoony about the characters so it's really jarring to give them all claw hands. The hands look even more like claws because instead of giving their hands the same width of a normal hand with 3 fingers, they cut off a whole 1/4 of their hand.
