Live Action "Year Without a Santa Claus"

I think we missed it at this year's Christmas party, but a staple of the Quiz Team experience has been watching the claymation classic "A Year Without a Santa Claus." Now, reportedly, they are making a live action version!

John Goodman has signed on to star in the live-action version of the 1974 claymation holiday favorite "The Year Without a Santa Claus" for NBC reports Variety.
Ron Underwood is directing the two-hour film, which also stars Ethan Suplee, Chris Kattan, Eddie Griffin and Carol Kane.
The story follows a disgruntled St. Nick (Goodman) who decides to take the year off from delivering presents; he ultimately rediscovers the meaning of the holiday through the help of a young boy.

Maybe a Quiz Team activity for his coming December?
