More Bad Santas Coming to the Big Screen
Defending Santa.com is starting to report on the reaction from the Christmas world on the news from Variety that a movie project is underway to tell the story of The Santa Wars.
Once upon a time a small number of professional Santa Clauses formed an association called the Amalgamated Order of Real Bearded Santas. In 2006 mutiny erupted against the group’s leadership amidst charges of corruption. A power struggle ensued and things came to literal blows amongst men with white beards wearing Santa suits. Two buffoonish individuals took charge of the organization, forever fracturing it and reducing the ranks of professional Santas (and whiny Mrs. Clauses, too) to bitterly one-upping each other on the Internet. This is a true story — and Hollywood is going to make it a smash new Christmas comedy.

This is sad, sad, sad, sad. If a few good people had stood up a few years ago and just said “This is Wrong” we wouldn’t be in this mess today. But no, protecting our beloved reputations and images was more important then than standing up for what is right. This is what soft peddling the issues for two years will do for you.
And now, we ALL are going to be made to look bad by a Hollywood movie that we will have no say or control over.
Well, we get what we get. It’s out of our hands now.
