The plot should be more concerning than replacing Allen. The naughty kids now DESERVE to get a present even if they didn't earn it. And when they don't get a present, they organize to take what they didn't earn. Dangerous concept that continues to permeate our society.
Didn't the article say the opposite? They try to steal the presents they THINK they deserve, only to realize that their efforts are better directed at just being good.
Also, why is the Tim Allen Santa Claus even being talked about? This isn't a Santa Claus movie. Did Tim Allen play Santa Claus in that Elf movie with Anna Kendrick they released a couple years ago? No.
I despise Disney, but honestly I don't see why any of this is problematic in concept. In execution, I am sure it will be an SJW slobberfest, but just based on the OP, what is the big deal?
