1. Richard Attenborough
from movie: Miracle on 34th Street

Very young girl Susan has doubts about childhood’s most enduring miracle - Santa Claus. Her mother told her the “secret” about Santa a long time ago, so Susan doesn’t expect to receive the most important gifts on her Christmas list. But after meeting a special department store Santa (who know he’s the real thing) Susan is given the most precious gift of all - something to believe in. Maybe this movie really suck for someone, but - that is a realistic Santa!




2. Tim Allen
from movie: The Santa Claus

Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) reads book The Night Before Christmas when suddenly receives an unexpected visitor on top of his house. When he’s startled by Scott’s calling out and falls, the Santa impersonator disappears, leaving only an 8-reindeer sleigh and a suit with instructions to put it on if he’s involved in an accident. Scott does, and is transported around the town dropping gifts through chimneys until he’s taken to the North Pole and informed by a group who claim they’re elves that he is now Santa. For actually being a relatively thin fellow, Tim Allen looks surprisingly convincing as Father Christmas. That is realistic Santa Clause!

3. Ed Asner
from movie: Elf

The elf, Ed Asner does a realistic job as the portly man in red and arrives only at the end in a ruined sleight to explain to Buddy (Will Farrell) that the Christmas spirit is going to need to be refurbished in the city in order for him to fly again. He looks very realistic as Santa, especially considering he’s kind of a grumpy ass. ;-)




4. Jim Carrey
from movie: How The Grinch Stole Christmas

When the green-skin Grinch (Jim Carrey), annual loather of the poor little Whos down in Who-ville, decides to finally take matter into his own hands by raping the town of its Christmas celebration, he chooses to do so dressed as Santa. By slicing up a curtain and attaching some white fluff, the green-skin (like aliens from outer space) Grinch looks really nothing like Santa to the human eye, but to Cindy Lou Who, he apparently does. What is realistic about Santa in Grinch? Nothing, and that is all about what Santa is NOT.

5. David Huddleston
from movie: Santa Claus: The Movie (1985)

An epic fairy tale from the father-son team of Alexander and Ilya Salklind in their prolific post-Superman period. The story cleverly spans both Santa's origins and modern-day travails. Tycoon and toy magnate B.Z (John Lithgow) made very Santa Clausy statement: "Stop making me go uh-huh uh-huh like some kind of a godamn moron!" So, what more could you want from a Christmas classic than candy canes, wonderful staging, fun hammy acting, plus the best reindeer flying scenes in motion picture history? Not to mention Henry Mancini's fine musical score, and a selection of memorable Christmas songs from Leslie Bricuse sung by artists like Sheena Easton. Another realistic Santa (in movie).

Marry Chistmas and Happy New Year!
