Twitter compilation news
There is this weird feeling I habeon this line of “wait a minute”, maybe not all but a good deal of it, which is — “Screw it”. Take this …
Consider the 1994 classic The Santa Clause, in which Tim Allen’s character, Scott Calvin, accidentally kills Santa when he falls off Calvin’s roof. As a result, he finds himself forced to take on jolly St. Nick’s role.
On social media, some people have started to reconsider the film on the plot point alone.
This is the line of journalism that pulls together social media posts — as much as everyone says Elin Musk has destroyed Twitter it sure still gets cited a lot — which fits a prior premise. By definition the people watching Tim Allen’s movie, enjoying it, and not giving this plot premise a second thought are not tweeting their lack of reconsideration or impression. Further, I have two reminders on this.
One: it is a mercy death. Tim Allen’s character has saved this Santa Claus from a thousand years of torment. Years down the line, he will himself be trying to get himself into the position for someone to kill him and end this torment.
Two: For balance — Santa Claus as killer instead — just double bill it with Silent Night, Deadly Night. Your new reconsidered issue with the movie’s premise — solved.
