Let’s be fr, the real Santa is dead and replaced by Danny Gonzales by now
So real 😔
He killed Santa because he didn’t bring the right toys 😕
fr fr
@@Indie.-there are worse levels of petty
@@Indie.-to be fair every year Danny was a very good boy
Athena losing her shit over fictitious characters will never not be funny.
... 'fictitious'?
Santa and fiction dont belong together in the same sentence unless its "Santa was reading a fiction novel"
if santa is "fictitious" then who puts the presents under the tree? checkmate atheist
Anyone doing it with such fervour is a delight.
@@friedtoads13 Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Santa is actually an acronym for "Sneaky Adults Naughtily Tricking Adolescents". It's also an anagram for Satan because those adults will pay for what they've done to their children.
Also, even if he was real, he'd be cancelled on Twitter BIG TIME because he hates poor kids.
The Santa Clause lore is INSANE and Scott Calvin is arguably one of the most powerful Santa Clauses out there
Indeed I saw the movies as a kid my favorite being the second one but I only watched the show recently and yes yes indeed
this person gets it!
Scott litterally spawned the most powerful witch in the universe with powers that exceed a legendary witch of folklore
The show alone produces way too much lore for a seasonal franchise
These movies, and the show, are bat shit CRAZY. It’s my favorite Christmas series just because it’s weird as SHIT.
Also the toy/plastic Santa villain was the best thing in the whole series.
In defense of Sandy Claws: Imagine you're doing your job, and some guy you've never met sends these demon children to kidnap you so that he can steal your career and identity. Then you're sent to a villain's lair where he more or less tortures you all night and almost kills you. Santa had every right to be pissed
Athena: Jack just wanted to be Santa! That's ok!
Also Athena later on: NOT JUST ANYONE CAN BE SANTA
Ok so uhhh so umm hmmm ok wait uhh…. I have much to reflect on
Counterpoint: IT'S JACK FUCKING SKELLINGTON, HE DESERVES THE WORLD.
@@ClowncoreisCoolHe a little confused, but he got the spirit.
@@AthenaPOfficialWhat tier santa is Jack
@@AthenaPOfficial"have you ever had a dream that you that you uh you could that you you-"
You should have included Violent Night, Santa. A depressed Santa who’s become disenfranchised by the commercialism of Christmas but finds reason to believe in himself again because one little girl on the nice list needs his help…yes he helps by murdering terrorists with a sledgehammer but still
I mean, what other options do you have when you loose that spark for the things you cared about.
@@lukehdarowlet9321 very true
I was a bit saddened when she didn't include Violent Night Santa.
@@A-man1998 same, like there is something oddly wholesome and endearing about Violent Night, Santa. Like he’s one of the most human Santa’s ever, when you think about it
For a second there, I thought you were talking about "Fatman," so I was like, 'Why do they like the Santa weapons dealer movie?' Lol
I think we need a tier list off all the Mrs. Clause. :3
OOooOooOoO!!!! I love this idea!!
Billy and mandy ms Claus is a classic!!! We stan a vampire queen
I’d put the Arthur Christmas version of Mrs Claus on the top of that list, she’s such an understated badass in that movie. She just casually enters rooms talking about how she’s got to do peace treaties after fighting a polar bear single handed and then starts cooking up dinner, woman is not to be messed with
jessica from santa claus is coming to town on TOP
YESSS PLS
Ok, but legitimately, you NEED to do a Rankin/Bass Lore video. It gets INSANE, especially for a bunch of Christmas specials
Yeeessss!
For real!!!
ESPECIALLY with Rudolph and Frosty’s Christmas in July, where they attempt to cross over certain holiday specials of theirs.
PLLEAASEEE
PLEASE the rankin bass cinematic universe makes 0 sense and i would love to see athena tear it apart
Athena you’ll be pleased to learn that the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack implies that after the movie, Santa and Jack seem to be on good terms and Santa even drops by Halloweentown to reminisce! Also, speaking of British Santas, I’m now curious to know your thoughts on the entire Arthur Christmas family line of Santas who happen to be British even though they’re in the north pole because Aardman…
I never knew that! How sweet :)
“I know you kidnapped me and tried stealing my job but you saved me from that sack of bugs so it’s all good bro”
-NBC Santa probably
TNBC Santa literally did nothing wrong. She just biased because she likes Jack and to wants ignore that he’s a character with flaws. I’m saying this has someone who likes Jack. Dude was clearly in the wrong and movie points that out.
@@KingOfGaymes In the “Closing” track it’s literally him being like “huh that whole stealing my holiday fiasco was wild but kinda funny looking back tbh. How’s that skeleton guy doing?” 😂
@@smcphee8499
We really need to allow ourselves, as a society, to like characters that are also extremely flawed.
It's heartwrenching to even see the egregious mental gymnastics people go through just to make their problematic favourites into paragon blorbos.
Athena going feral over Klaus is the kind of energy I needed today! Love that movie to bits!!!
Nah, Santa had every right to be mad at Jack. Bro deadass thought giving kids man-eating abominations were good Christmas gifts.
Fair but if Santa’s power level wasn’t in the negatives he could’ve done something
@@AthenaPOfficial Fair enough, lmfao
He was being held hostage, as soon as they deal with oogie boogie Santa flies away and fixes the problem in like 10 seconds
@@nicomom9534 Oh, so he's basically a fraud or nah?
To be fair, he was a bit nicer in the Kingdom Hearts games. He gave Jack a talk as to why he couldn't let Jack be Santa and even gave him a taste of what it was like to be Santa. Though he does imply that he put Sora on the naughty list purely because Riku convinced him into saying he didn't believe in Santa
When we were younger, we'd watch the stop motion Rudolph, and my mom would always shake her head, and say, "Santa wouldnt do that." She is very vocal when there is a subpar Santa. It was mostly this one and the "Twas the Night Before Christmas" rankin bass one. (That one is honestly worse). She also thought Santa wouldn't smoke for health reasons.
Your mom’s so real for that!
Your mom is based
Telling kids that smoking is bad is of course a good thing. But Santa is immortal and magic, so Idk that smoking would hurt him the same way
I actually liked the Twas the Night Before Christmas and their take on Santa. When I first saw it I found him a bit weird looking, but honestly I like how they stay accurate to the poem and the design works with the look of the special.
i don't think santa in twas the night before christmas is terrible, everything was all that little shitty mouse's fault. though santa's design in that movie does look pretty gross lmao.
What?!? No polar express Santa?!? That Santa OOZES magic vibes and his voice is as rich as the hot chocolate they served on that train! (Granted he was only in the movie for, like, the last two minutes, so I can understand why you skipped him lol)
Yah and she forgot Christmas chronicles as well
I feel like I need to defend coca-cola santa. Coke did not invent santa claus, but they're a big reason we see him as the jolly man dressed in red
Edit: if im wrong tho this is awkward
Coke MADE the Santa you love
I mean, Santa wore red before Coke
I give all the credit to Norman Rockwell
@@gemstone108it might have really started with Thomas Nast’s version of “Merry Old Santa Claus” in an 1883 political cartoon
They made him look the way he does yes.
I do love that as obsessed with Klaus as Athena is she didn’t spoil it meanwhile she gave the RB Rudolph play by play as if no one has heard of it. Classic. Wouldn’t want her any other way
Never realise how iconic Santa is. He’s nice, iconic laugh, a big boy, a hot wife, have an iconic clothes and is a trend maker, every Christmas people dress as him. And he also have a green form. He also has a nemesis. He a creator and his little glass give dark academia men. What a men
Who's his nemisis?
@@msjkramey i don't know his english name, but in french it's the " père fouettard" and santa claus is " le père noel". he look likes santa but he's skinny, wear the same costume but black and deliver nail and coal to bad children
Thank you Athena for having the most correct take of any youtuber on any topic ever, Klaus is my favorite Christmas movie INSTANT CLASSIC 💯
Also A+ Rise of the Guardians take, you should make a video about the book series the movie is based off of, The Guardians of Childhood. It's 5 books long with amazing illustrations & takes like a day or 2 to read.
Love me some tragic backstory bara santa
Santa Paws was quite a movie to me when I was younger. You know, seeing those girls being abused by that orphanage owner while simultaneously focusing on other characters is quite an experience, at least for me.
As someone who didn't really grow up with Nickelodeon, these videos help me see all the chaos and weirdness that I missed out on. What was happening over there?
Also girl, the fit for this video is so festive and FIRE
As someone who ONLY grew up on Nickelodeon, you missed out (although they had much better stuff before I was born)
Oh it is wild,the more recent version of Santa actively despise SpongeBob's guts
He calls him a menace to society,he's like first Santa but dialed up to 11
@@LycanMOON I forgot there were three versions of Santa in SpongeBob
It seems we've forgotten the true S tier Santa, the Billy & Mandy santa
This 💯💯💯
Honestly the most shocking part is learning that a live action Year Without a Santa Claus exists, that's not only an absolute drug trip, but features BeGoths?? Which were a real toy line if you guys didn't know, also known as Bleeding Edge Goths. Those dolls are cool, idk what Santa's on about.
There's the ongoing theory that all of Rankin/Bass's Christmas movies take place in the same continuity.
And if that's the case, I really want to know how the young cheerful Santa from "Coming to Town" became the grumpy old 8!tch from "Rudolph".
I like to think the Santa from Coming to Town and Year Without are the same Santa because of Mickey Rooney
Apparently Rudolph isn't canon to the others
that's why i see it more as a multiverse than a "cinematic universe" even rudolph becomes a bit of an asshole himself in the shiny new year movie. i don't think rudolph from the 1964 movie is the same rudolph as the 70s sequels, same with santa. no way asshole bully santa from rudolph is the same as the sweet kind generous kris kringle.
@@memethyst that could explain why Rudolph is perpetually a baby instead of an adult like he was at the end of the movie
Two weeks late, but I actually found a good fanfic explaining how Santa became this way. It's called "It's a Difficult Responsibility" on ao3. "The Revenge of the Winter Warlock" is also a really good and heartbreaking interpretation.
Rise of the guardians is based off a young adult book series. It’s a very good series. Has 4 books and gives a backstory to each character. The movie, though different from the book and missed out some of my favourite bits, it did so well at capturing the magic and wonder of the books. Though North is the book…. 🥰
I highly recommend the series. It’s a fun and engaging story.
Okay, okay, but the Tim Allen Santa Clause series actually explains a whole lot about the Santa lore for that universe.
This
Does it ever explain how adults don’t believe Santa Claus exists when they get presents in their house that they never bought?
@@83croissant Maybe Santa's magic creates false memories for the parents that make them believe they bought the presents themselves. That would make the most sense to me.
I've never noticed by how fabulous Mrs. Claus was! Also, I watched Klaus on repeat for about 2 weeks after seeing it for the first time. It's actually amazing!
The fact the ELF Santa wasn't on this list hurt's me
One thing I always liked about Santa from "Olive the Other Reindeer" (totally underrated special by the way) is that after all the presents have been delivered, he saves some presents for his staff and crew. That's really thoughtful, and you don't see many Santa's acknowledge the elves like that!
It also leads to one of the elves dropping what I think is the funniest line in the special:
"Uh, boss, from an insurance point of view, the jump ropes, probably not a wise idea."
For the Dora video, remember that Swiper is a demon and saying swiper no swiping is an exorcism
I’m honestly surprised that Christmas Chronicles Santa isn’t on here, but the ones that are I completely agree with!! Klaus was honestly one of the top 3 best Christmas movies I’ve ever seen!!!
Christmas Chronicles Santa is kinda hard to rank, he’s unique but not unique enough to really separate him from other Santa’s. I do like the element that he just knows who everyone is and gets a massive kick out of seeing people all grown up
@@mrcritical6751 true, true
You should definitely watch the sequels and show, because honestly they're pretty great imo. They definitely help to improve Scott a little and the lore is pretty INSANE.
YES. I watched every single episode and movie at least 2-3 times and I also think they did help Scott improve in my opinion. There’s so much more to unpack in the rest of the series than just the first movie, which is pretty cool.
Santa Clause 2: The Clause is CompHet and the Penalty is Death
the series is... okay. i sort of liked the first season, but i was forcing myself to get through the second one. the original three movies are ones that i still watch every year though
dude the lore of that show is CRAZY i haven’t started s2 yet but man that first season , i honestly liked it better than the original movies BUT THATS JUST ME
I recently rewatched the stop motion spongebob special and got freaked out by the Santa during the beginning song, like when the characters say "he has his eyes on them." he just was there looking more cursed than anything.
Athena’s presence is a gift
I haven't got to the point yet but a fun fact about the SCiCtT Kris Kringle and the YWaSC Santa: in Rankin/Bass canon they are the same guy. Mickey Rooney voices both and because of that it connects the two movies. It also connects them with using the same Santa puppets (and Mickey Rooney voicing again) and in not mentioned film Rudolph and Frosty Christmas in July which combines Rudolph Shiny New Year, Frosty Winter Wonderland (not the first frosty, Paul Frees voiced that santa), and the two others mentioned along with some non christmas R/B films
The first Rudolph isn't considered canon because that north pole is never shown or are the characters brought back
I'm surprised Kurt Russell's Santa from _The Christmas Chronicles_ 1 and 2 isn't in the list. The films may not be the greatest Christmas movies ever, but Russell's Santa Claus has a good balance between being this cool biker grandpa and the wholesomess you expect from a Santa in a PG movie
On Oogie Boogie, that actually made an official comic that him and Jack used to be good friends, but he got corrupted by the old Pumpkin King before Jack. He pretty much got fed the bugs that twisted him bad.
Athena going feral over Klaus makes my heart so happy oml
I hope Athena realizes that along with the reboot of Dora there’s also Diego and Dora and friends into the city that’s going to be a lot
As a Rankin/Bass movie hyperfixater I much appreciate your takes thank you 😎
YOURE SO REAL FOR MISS JESSICA
Btw fun fact that no one asked for: Rumen Petkov (director of Treasure Planet 1982, my favorite movie unironically) worked on “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer”
I'M HYPERFIXATING ON IT TOO OMFG
@@ShellySwirl YES LET’S GO
Santa from Santa vs. The Snowman better be on this. Not only is he kind and forgiving to the snowman, but he also has a giant nutcracker mech
I did not realize there was a live action year without Santa Claus, I do not want to watch it.
Oh shit she hearted it. This must be what it feels like to have Yo Gaba Gaba! notice you.
I honestly really want you to watch the sequels of “the Santa Claus” to hear your thoughts on them, I’ve only seen the second movie and I’m interested to hear what you think of them
The second one is the best and the TV show is pretty good
Unrelated but as a fellow aroace I ADORE your pfp and your username
@@jastro. :D
@@jastro.:D
Not seeing Billy and Mandy's santa claus on this list, especially when its VA'd by Gilbert Gottfried..."ILL SWALLOW YOUR SOUL!!!!!"
-Santa
Klaus is so good! I watched the movie twice this month, so he deserves the S tier. ❤
"WHY WEREN'T YOU AT ELF PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Is probably my favorite Christmas movie quote. Also a very fun Christmas song you might appreciate is Dominic the Donkey. Also I usually have to skip public humiliation scenes or certain break up scenes in tv and movies.
First off, A++ on the makeup look in this video. Second, I agree with the ranking to a degree, I love hearing your opinions on things. And third, I never knew that there was a live action Year without a Santa Claus so thanks for that information
This is a great video and I can't fault the logic of her rankings, but I can't believe she missed the Polar Express "Definitely Not God" Santa.
oh my god i'm so sad you didn't get to Arthur Christmas Santa because there's technically like. 3?? This movie's genuinely one of my favorite christmas movies because of how it plays with the character of Santa, where it's not just one guy but it's a role that's passed down from father to son. The Mrs.Claus in this movie is also so cute and iconic and I love her. They're all british but I think they'd deserve a pass because it works and the film was made by Aardman (yeah, the Wallace and Gromit guys!).
the elves in this movie are also cool as shit?? like. they're kinda like military spies that use cool tech and acrobatics to deliver the toys, the opening gift delivery scene is sick as hell i really need you to see it.
You don't understand my immediate excitement when I saw North on the thumbnail
Rise of the Gaurdians is one of my obsessions series wise and North is a massive comfort character for me and I love seeing the love for him spread further
By the way, its not fully canon, but theres a book series that has some extra lore on him you could look into if youre interested!
Seconding the Dora Lore idea! Maybe looking at Diego too, and Dora and Friends. There is so much to look into in the shows and movies! I am biased though, because it was my autistic childhood obsession lol. Also, great work as always, Athena!! Thank you for your hard work!
DORA THE EXP-LORE-R! ATHENA PLEASE THAT WOULD BE SUCH AN AMAZING TITLE!
happy holidays everyone :3
The tier list everyone wanted. Now I want a vs video, seeing what Santa in a battle to the death would win.
HOLD UP! Where's the Santas from Miracle On 34th Street, Santa Claus The Movie, Elf, and Ernest Saves Christmas? They're ICONIC. Also the Santas from the modern animated classic Arthur Christmas!!!! We need a redo next yr.
YESSSS
How about a Mrs. Claus ranking? A few ideas on the top of my head:
A Year Without a Santa Claus
Jessica from Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Carol Newman from The Santa Clause franchise
The Night They Saved Christmas
Anya from Santa Claus: The Movie
Annette from Fred Claus
Margaret from Arthur Christmas
The Christmas Chronicles
Ruth from Fatman
The Christmas Chronicles Mrs. Claus was a pretty great character in my opinion. She’s really caring, and Athena should definitely rank Mrs. Claus. It would be pretty cool seeing her opinions on them.
@@lavender_fields I would definitely rank the Year Without a Santa Claus version in S tier. That woman's a boss! She's practically the hero of the special.
Thank goodness there’s an official list. I’m so glad there’s no fake ones now
Would love to see you do this (maybe next year?) with some of the older Santas from pre-1960s
The Santa Clause is just Christmas themed Body horror, change my mind.
Honestly it’s barely body horror, the guy just gains weight and gets a beard and change in hair color
I’ve been suggesting lion guard lore for nine months I’m glad it’s finally happening
Day 2 of requesting the fictional boybands tier list
Yesss!!! Some suggestions: 4Town from Turning Red. LumberZacks from Milo Murphy's Law, Sev'ral Timez from Gravity Falls, Love Sentence from Star VS, Boy Boy Girl Band from Tip & Oh and so many more....
holy shit, this is the first time ive ever seen anyone talk about the 1998 rudolph movie! i loved that movie as a kid and never heard anyone talk about! makes me happy to hear its being enjoyed
Yeah she missed the 1948 one though 😭
Athena you shouldve included Ducktales 2017 santa. HES A POLAR BEAR. and he has some rare time slowing jewel. (He himself isnt magic) and all the elves are chihuahuas (i think) and he and Scrooge Mcduck are kinda fruity
I'd love to see your reaction to The Santa Clauses just because of how unhinged it gets at times
I would’ve loved to see your take on Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy’s BONKERS take on Santa and Mrs. Claus that has permanently etched itself into my brain since childhood. Personally, it’s a cartoon christmas special episode I’d watch high just so the episode can melt my brain like the Arc of the Covenant. XD
Another cartoon Santa I’d love your opinion on is the one from Pucca! He’s actually recurring side character. (Sending vibes for my love of Pucca through the universe to you in hopes you one day talk about both series and og web shorts 👉👈 😅)
This was a very fun video; I hope you have a wonderful day!
One of my personal favourites in the 2017 ducktales Santa. Not because he’s particularly unique, but because Scrooge is just constantly done with him and it’s hilarious.
If you’re going over Dora the Explorer, I have a theory that may not fully be just a theory. Dora has multiple different timelines(or universes?). There’s at least one branch of that I can bring up, the Christmas special where Swiper swipes Christmas, because if he keeps Swiping or not creates two different outcomes.
•Swiper swiping Christmas- Dora and the gang get time traveled to the future where Swiper never stops swiping Christmas and Dora still lives in the forest, she is older and taller than the 7-8 year old Dora that we follow
•Swiper fixes Christmas- After seeing the future of misery that comes with swiping Christmas, Swiper fixes his actions and Christmas is back on and everything is happy, but assuming the Dora and Friends into the city series is a direct cannon aftermath to the series and not another separate timeline from the main one, Dora’s family moves to the city and when we see an older Dora she’s away from the friends that she’s known since they were all toddlers.
This is assuming that Swiper getting on the nice list does not just rewrite the future that Dora and the gang visited, but instead creates a new timeline. Some reboots could be considered possible alternative timelines as well if we want to address them.
Anyways I hope you have a great day, and thank you if you read this
You need to make a second one! Where is Billy & Mandy Santa? Or DIsney's Santa's Workshop? Or Mythical The Polar Express one? Arthur Christmas has THREE SANTAS
STill, amazing job on video! Love your makeup and dress up!
have I watched it yet? No. Am I leaving a comment and a like already? Absolutely.
My grandpa always sings "we are Santa's elves~ we dont wash ourselves~"
theres more lines but i cant remember then rn
her eyeshadow looks so good! it reminded me of some really tasty christmas themed gummies I had a few years ago that I haven't been able to find again ever since, they had like royal icing decorations or something because I remember there were crunchy bits
sorry for the weird tangent, I just really liked her makeup and I'm very tempted to try to copy it for an upcoming party haha
If you make a Dora lore video, you have to make a Diego video too for us nature girlies
YESSS SHE TALKED ABOUT KLAUS I LOVED IT
Great video, Athena! Also, may I suggest a Stickin’ Around lore video option right after the Lion Guard?
Gotta check that out! I already picked out January vids but I’ll add that to my list
@@AthenaPOfficialNice! 🎉
I love that Klaus and North are S tear because, if I’m not mistaken, they have the same character designer. They are quite literally draw by the same people
Rise of the Guardians Santa has some real eyebrow game. (the tattoos slay tho)
Thank you so much for introducing me to Klaus, omfg I cried so hard?!?! It really didn't have any right to be that good, but I'm SO glad it was. Instant classic indeed, adding it to our annual Christmas rotation ❤
In The Santa Clauses Scott does communicate with the spirit of past Santas. It’s also revealed that it wasn’t an accident the other Santa fell off the roof he choose Scott to be his successor.
I’ve been looking forward to this one since you posted your December schedule 🎅 hope you have a merry Christmas Athena!
Another great video Athena. We wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas!
haven't even started the video but I have to say your whole christmassy outfit, with the makeup and headband and such is sooo cute and slayyy 🤩🤩
I can’t decide if you’d love or dislike the Santa from Rankin Bass’ adaptation of The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus. On the one hand he is a dilf with two mothers and learned his laugh from listening to the music of the frozen valley where he lives--on the other hand he’s probably the least magic santa. All his powers and feats are from his connections and networking with to a series of pagan deities. but the reason they help him and bestow these powers is because they admire him so much. it’s like his love and caring made him worthy of their blessings. Like this Santa is literally beloved by the world itself.
You know it’s a good day when Athena posts
OH MY TITAN!! You need to do a air bud/buddies lore! THERES SO MUCH!!! AND I LOVE IT!!! It's such a good series
Your rankin/bass Santa rant is my most recent favorite thing ever!!!
Oh thank you for that final kick to go watch Klaus, I absolutely LOVED it and I am here to complete my viewing. Thank you again for the wonderful recommendation!!! Merry Crisis ✨
THIS VIDEO WAS SUCH A MASSIVE UNDERTAKING GOOD JOB ALSO YOUR OUTFIT POPPED OFF
the aggression for a perfect santa is so unhinged and i love it
athena i love you so much 😂❤i love your costume and makeup! also i’m really curious where your got your tiny hat presents because i want them :p your presence is always a gift and i truly enjoyed this video!!!!!!!!!! merry christmas 🎄🎁 ❤
YOU MENTIONED KLAUS AND I JUST IMMEDIATELY HAD TO SHARE MY LOVE FOR IT!!! IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND GOOD AND AHHHHH IT'S SO GOOD I AM NOT NORMAL ABOUT MUCH I FREAKING LOVE IT!!! I don't care what time of the year, I still watch it when I think about it. Also love the line from the fisherman who says the weather has been nice lately when it was freezing. Very relatable as someone from Iceland haha. BUT OMG THE STORY AND ART!!! I WANT TO DO ART LIKE THAT!!! ESPECIALLY THE BACKGROUNDS, OMG THE BACKGROUNDS!!!
Athena why did your makeup absolutely slay in this video omg 👀
I had completely forgotten about the lion guard
Your costumes and makeup are always so good! A present is an adorable idea for a costume
Can't we forget Frosty the Snowman's Santa, The Powerpuff Girls' Santa and Shimmer and Shine's Santa?
29:20 i got featured let's gooooo
Also Scott Calvin Santa gets much better in the second movie, imo
I feel like Santa Claus is Coming to Town is just the "Me: The hot girl I pulled by being autistic:" meme
Oh, this was a good review.
Your energy is amazing, and I am so glad that the algorithm for once recommended a video and channel I thoroughly enjoy!
I am definitely subscribing this channel, and look forward to your wonderful content! 💚
(I also realized after typing this that I did subscribe after saving this video to my watch later playlist, but wanted to comment properly after finishing your rank list. Very solid list!)
Bit of a Fun Fact: "Santa Claus is comin' to Town" was edited by broadcasting channels like ABC and Freeform to cut out scenes and songs they believe to be "traumatizing to children".
... That included the lap-sitting song.
The moment you listed your criteria, I knew this was the most trustworthy santa news source!
Edit: OMG YES PLEASE DO LORE-A THE EXPLORER
There's so many Santas I would have suggested so I would love a second one of these Santa rankings
Amazing video as always! I really hope that if you do another one of these next year you put The Polar Express Santa on there. Before Klaus came out that was my favorite Christmas movie of all time.
I skipped your discussion on Klaus santa because you talked the movie up so much I'm going to watch it after this video. Thanks Athena for bringing me what I'm sure will be a new Christmas must watch.
Should've done the various iterations of Santa from Aardman's Arthur Christmas, I love that movie and it has a really great unconventional approach in my opinion
