    This is like a twisted version of the story I was told as a child. The version I knew is the small pine was considered imperfect and mocked by the other pines for having stunted growth due to the lack of sunlight and being far to small to be picked for the Royal Christmas tree, but was uprooted and planted in a pot for the Royals woodcutter's cottage for Christmas as it was the perfect size for his small cottage.

The pines chosen to be the Royal Christmas tree would only live for that one Christmas as they were chopped down. The small pine witnessed multiple Christmases as he was potted and well cared for by the Woodcutter's family.

    No joke, totally on brand for an out of touch rich person to be like 'no don't cut it down, dig it up and move it.' Anyone who has ever tried to remove a stump knows that it's a giant pain in the butt because the roots often are huge and go down very deep. You usually need like, a winch or a truck to pull it out. It's very on brand for her to be like 'yes do the extremely hard labor intensive thing.'

    Phelous deserves to be more popular, and I will die on that hill.

That scene with them setting up the banquet hall had me pausing the video because I was laughing so much.

    Y'know, they're not gonna win any awards, but the music in this isn't that bad. It really makes the Microsoft Powerpoint presentation they're provided in lieu of actual animation severely undercut any impact it could have possibly had.

    In the 13 years I've been watching Phelous, this is only the second time that he reviewed something I've actually watched, except I've been waiting for this one.
    I found this VHS back in 2019 at a thrift store and immediately bought it to add to my collection. I had never seen it before, so I watched it later that night and was laughing my ass off at how terrible it was. I kept meaning to tell you about this tape and every year it slipped my mind, so I'm so glad you found it!

    @1:34 I recently read in article about how some plants will produce airborne sounds when stressed and those sounds contain information about the plant. Trees can also communicate with one another via root systems and fungus. One article said that trees can even redistribute nutrients to other trees that need them.

    The faces on the trees only make me grimace as I keep thinking the Great Deku Tree wants me to get rid of his curse only for him to die on me anyway.
    Also if I may make a recommendation for a future Christmas cartoon review, there's one I remember called ALIENS FIRST CHRISTMAS. Looked like a JETSONS knockoff & I only remember it for the alien neighbors & their weird take on a Christmas tree that would warm a Goth's heart.
