Tracing Western Legends to the End

One Break
-Hogfather, who is the subject of the film, is not the protagonist of the film.
Santa’s car is not driven by reindeer but by wild boar.
Santa Claus is a fat old man, but has fangs, because he is also a big wild boar.
Grim Reaper's appearance is still classic and terrifying, but he is not only kind, wise, witty and humorous, but he has had love and the crystallization of love.
Two Links
-The characters and stories described in the film that have never been recorded, but many of the details are connected with the legends we know. For example, the "Bogot" monster in Harry Potter.
Three teasers
-go and see the Oxford University described in the film. It is an old castle where a bunch of senior men are in charge of a young man.
The wooden computer in the film has a logo similar to "Inter Inside". Take a closer look, it is "Ants Inside".
There are also famous sculpture heads that have been tampered with details and so on, see how many you can find!
Four exquisiteness
-production, makeup and special effects are all eye-catching.
The language is in place and there is room for prediction. If you understand enough British history, you will have a deeper experience. Unfortunately, no Chinese subtitles have been released yet. Otherwise, you can be more dedicated.
It is also very good at serving children. Horrible plots are frequent but not bloody.
Five beliefs
-this is the theme that the film really wants to express.

  • [Lord Downey is reviewing a previous assassination contract that Teatime carried out for him]

    Lord Downey: You nailed Sir George's dog to the ceiling.

    Teatime: I couldn't have it barking while I was working, sir.

    Lord Downey: Some people would have drugged it.

    Teatime: [mystified] Oh! But I definitely fulfilled the contract. I checked Sir George's breathing with a mirror, as instructed.

    Lord Downey: Apparently his head was several feet from his body at that point.

    Teatime: That was all right, wasn't it, sir?

    Lord Downey: It lacked... elegance.

    Teatime: I thank you, sir. I'm always happy to be corrected. I shall remember that... next time.
