I think it just makes for an easy sell to say that it's full of good will and a kind story because it's about Christmas but then you watch any of those Hallmark movies and it's about calling men dumb and women who work terrible women who should be mothers...

Like as if the good fun of the holiday will even put whatever else they want to do or say in making a terrible piece of media to a more palatable state.

It's like smothering a bad meal in gravy and saying well at least all you can taste is salt but here it's Santa Claus. Definitely mostly not worth consumption.
