Santa Claus is Comin' to Town

"The Mailman decides to answer some of the most common questions about Santa Claus, and tells us about a small baby named Kris who was left on the doorstep of the Kringle family (toymakers). When Kris grew up, he wanted to deliver toys to the children of Sombertown. But its Burgermeister (Herr Meisterburger) is too mean to let that happen. And to make things worse, there's an evil wizard named Winter who lives between the Kringles and Sombertown, but Kris manages to melt Winter's heart (as well as the comely schoolteacher's) and deliver his toys."                Written by Kathy Li

I liked the music and plot of this when I was a kid. I thought the stop motion was cool when I was little. It's well done, but seeing it as an adult - the plot. There is so much random stuff - why couldn't they stick to at least "real" myths and legends. It's a bit ridiculous. All in all, I say: SKIP IT
