      Sadly Amanda you missed the point of Scott's journey as Santa. He is the perfect candidate. Santa must both know how to be humble and find joy in life but must also know when things are wrong and just necessarily bad actions. Otherwise you end up with a Santa that is far too nice to never have a naughty list or the toy Santa who out everyone on the naughty list. Scott was the middle ground, a balanced character and it makes sense to teach him this lesson year after year so he'll be the best Santa he can be. Also the suit wouldn't work on women. Would destroy the legend of Santa Claus

    The Santa Clause is secretly a horror movie. Think about it. This guy is FORCED to become Father Christmas, abandon his family, his life, everything he knows to become a slave to the contract that he UNKNOWINGLY entered simply by putting on the suit. The elves don't really care that the previous Santa is dead, if anything they're annoyed they have to train this new guy, and in SC2 we find out that every Santa HAS to have a Mrs. Clause. What happened to the previous Mrs. Clause? What if the new Santa turns out to be gay? WHAT IF A KID PUTS ON THE SANTA SUIT? Seriously, that movie is fucked up if you think about it

It's less competent and well written than the first, but it's so much more fun and went off the rails. Martin Short was obviously the highlight, but I liked the horrible attempt to make the North Pole Canada and the legendary figure council. The first SC felt too generic and had that same "the true meaning of Christmas is the friends we made along the way and you just have to believe" message that every single Chrismas movie has. Oh, and I hated the kid.

    As a Canadian, I just don't register the Canadian references in this movie. The real "Santa Clause Canadian references" to me is the fact that they filmed the first movie in & around Toronto, and that the "Denny's" in the first movie was actually a Swiss Chalet they slightly redecorated.

      @@Psyteth Interesting. I had always read it was a Swiss Chalet. Even IMDB said that back in the day (yes I know, IMDB isn't entirely factual). But now that I google it, there's like 10 things saying it was a Swiss Chalet, but the top site says it was a Denny's on Ellesmere and the second (IMDB Trivia) now says that it was indeed a Denny's on Ellesmere but was "mistakeningly recorded as a Swiss Chalet dressed to be Denny's for many years."

    It feels like the new lore from the Disney+ series was meant to answer questions like "what if a bad guy put on the suit" or "what if the new Santa was gay", but it also raises more questions like "why didn't they just pick someone who was already married, or at least make the Mrs Clause actually visible and obvious right from the start, rather than him having to rush around at the last minute and potentially destroy Christmas"

    • @JohnWilliams-wl9px
      @JohnWilliams-wl9px 5 месяцев назад

      Based of how distant Scott was in the first movie, it’s was not a malicious thing. Charlie really doesn’t like his dad that much in the first film, until he became Santa. Cause then Scott was spending more time with him.
      I think the idea was suppose to be a ‘cat and the cradle’. Charlie simply got more distant as he got older, Scott just dismissed as he was too busy to notice how big the divide got.
      Really shows how much missed potential the 3rd film had with the alternate timeline that only 15 minutes.

      @mariaskabardonis8353 5 месяцев назад +1

      @@JohnWilliams-wl9px I didn’t see Scott as absentee in the first movie he was trying to include Charlie as much as possible. It was just hard cause of his job and the remarriage was new and they were trying to find the new dynamic. I don’t believe Charlie didn’t like the Dad he just prefered the mom and Neal cause he was seeing them more. Scott was a workaholic but I don’t believe he would completely neglect Charlie it was to much of an exaggeration.
