* OlderThanTheyThink: Despite Sergio Pablos' claim, there ''have'' been origin stories for Santa Claus in the past, the most notable being Creator/LFrankBaum's ''Literature/TheLifeAndAdventuresOfSantaClaus'', first published in 1902, and the Creator/RankinBass special ''WesternAnimation/SantaClausIsCominToTown'' from 1970 (Rankin-Bass also did an adaptation of Baum's book in 1985). This ''is'' the first Santa origin story to have [[DoingInTheWizard little to no magical elements]] however. There is also a 2007 Finnish movie Christmas Story, which tells Santa Claus' origin in a realistic non-supernatural manner, except for the ending where he disappears, is heavily implied to have died of old age and similarly returns as a spirit with flying reindeer to greet his loved ones.

There is an element to being a successor to Spiritual Successor that is more than just "is vaguely similar and came later."


* SpiritualSuccessor: Unintentional or not, the initial plot is strikingly similar to the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' book ''Going Postal''. A BrilliantButLazy guy (Jesper/Moist Von Lipwig) is commanded by an authority figure (Postmaster General/Lord Vetinari) to head a dilapidated post office or suffer the consequences (cut off financially/hanging). While initially going along with it with a plan to escape, both eventually not only meet their love interests (Alva/Adora Belle Dearheart) who help them, but also find out that GoodFeelsGood with their own IChooseToStay moments.

** Has gained a noticeable one with ''WesternAnimation/FrozenII'', another winter-themed animated family film set in Scandinavia, featuring Saami people, due to the latter being a ContestedSequel to a [[WesternAnimation/{{Frozen2013}} film]] that has gained a lot of HypeBacklash.
** It spawned one with ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory4'' after it won Best Animation Feature over it at the 2020 Academy Awards despite the odds being in its favor.[[note]] This may have to do with the fact that after Pixar’s last film ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2'' lost to ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'', whose animation and visuals were praised more than Pixar’s animation and many hope that this is a step up for the Oscars.[[/note]] Some have even believe that the stigma of 2D animation no longer being popular as it was before led to the Academy choosing ''Toy Story 4'' over ''Klaus'', which added to the vitriol.

Added DiffLines:

* FanPreferredCutContent: Well, some fans (see BrokenBase above). Some preferred that that fim have kept Jesper's british accent from [[https://vimeo.com/126287950 , the teaser]], feeling its more memorable and suiting of the character.
