What if Santa was/is real?

Carl Jung would like this

What if Santa was real. Like back in the olden days, he really kept up, and gave the good kids toys every year. 

But, only like a handful of kids really were ever "nice" enough to not be on the naughty list. So it wasn't that tough a job.

So, some goody two shoes kids would get some cool shit from Santa, and parents of other kids would feel bad for their rotten kids, so they would buy presents and pretend santa brought them.

Then, over time, more and more parents would feel bad for their kids, and they would catch wind that some parents were faking the Santa visits, so it just becomes commonplace for people to fake Santa. 

So common in fact, that they just assume Santa isn't real!

I'm thinking about writing a movie about this.

You don't write a movie though. You write a screenplay. 

Sorry.

I'm thinking of at the end of the movie, there is one last good kid, and Santa brings him some kickass toys, but the kid doesn't care for them, he instead plays video games.

This pushes Santa over the edge, and he and his dog move into a cave atop a mountain in an arctic region right outside a small town. And he finds a green hair in his beard. End.

What about the reindeer? The elves?? 

That's just bullshit the parents came up with to explain how so many kids get presents.

The reality is very few kids, I mean like 5, qualified to get the presents. And he just did it in one city.

I like that. 

Who were there kids who qualified? Their story will be very important. Were they rich kids? Poor kids? 

A mix. Just the truly good kids who always did what was right.

I would ask for the list of naughty girls for Christmas

well you said there was only like 5 total so that could be from only one or two families so you could go ahead and get pretty specific about who they are. A good movie needs good character development. This is important God damn it.  

The kids who get the toys aren't going to be the focal point. The first parents to fake Santa will be focused on. They will of course probably have to be rich and arrogant.
