  I think the reason Santa doesn’t want to let buddy replace him is not because he’s stubborn, but because he does care about him and doesn’t want buddy to suffer as a result of having to BE Santa. It’s a thankless, tiring job that’ll wear on you over the years. He sees buddy as very naive and doesn’t wanna crush him with the endless years on the job, potentially destroying his Christmas spirit. Just because he can doesn’t mean he’s truly prepared.

  Buddy lived at the North Pole since he was a baby. Some of the Christmas magic leeched into him after so many years, especially after a trip in the present sack

  What makes a Christmas movie is that it takes place during Christmas, gifts and Christmas decorations shown(even for a brief moment), Christmas music, and snow. Based off this, Die Hard is absolutely a Christmas movie.

  Also Buddy claims he consumed only candy and sugar at the North Pole, which sounds like an inhumane amount of sweets

  Additionally, he remembered what Santa sung to him on his 6th Birthday, &nbsp;something you would need to remember all those presents.

  My head canon is that elf is in the same universe as Rudolph the red nosed reindeer and the other stop motion Christmas movies
