Alien Xmas

                                             Alien Xmas 

This movie is based on the 2006 book of the same name by Chiodo and Jim Strain. It was executive produced by the most iconic  man in Hollywood Jon Favreau. I loved this movie so much, it was cute and the animation was so spot on it was wonderful and the story was well written, everyone who worked on this should be applauded for such an amazing film. 

Long ago, a race of colorful extraterrestrials known as Klepts became greedy and plundered their home planet of its resources. Their color faded away, and they set off into outer space, moving from galaxy to galaxy and stealing whatever they could. The leader of the Klepts, known as Supreme Leader Z, decides to steal all of the "stuff" on the planet Earth. Her plan involves building a device dubbed "the Gyrotron", which will eliminate Earth's gravity, on the North Magnetic Pole; objects on the planet will be sent into orbit, where the Klepts' spaceships can collect them. Z sends X, a small Klept, to carry out the mission with a helper robot known as a Semi-Automatic Multi-Tasking Unit (or SAMTU).

X and SAMTU arrive on Earth shortly before Christmas Eve. They land in Christmas Town, where Santa Claus and his elves live. That night, Santa unveils a technologically advanced sleigh meant to help him deliver Christmas presents all around the world more quickly. However, the sleigh malfunctions, and Santa instructs Obie, his lead elf mechanic, to fix it. Obie's time spent working on the sleigh has kept him from spending time with his daughter Holly and her mother Noelle, much to Holly's disappointment.

In an ice cave, X directs SAMTU to build the Gyrotron. Driven by an urge to steal, X ventures into Christmas Town, where he encounters Obie. X plays dead, leading Obie to believe him to be an inanimate doll. Obie gives X to Holly as a gift. The next day, Holly keeps X with her as she decorates with her mother, goes caroling, and attends a Christmas dinner, causing X to witness the elves' kindness and generosity towards one another. At night, X tries to escape Holly's home with a bag of stolen items, but Holly sees him attempting to do so. She gives X a puppy as a companion; the act of being given something fills X with feelings of compassion and warmth, and causes him to regain his blue color.

X decides not to follow through with Supreme Leader Z's plan, and instead reprograms SAMTU to fix Santa's sleigh. However, Z orders the other Klepts to invade Christmas Town. The Klepts activate the Gyrotron, but SAMTU manages to destroy the machine, electrocuting itself in the process. Nonetheless, the Klepts triumph over the residents of Christmas Town. Z, believing that X gained the Earthlings' trust in order to lead the Klepts to their "stuff", promotes him to Vice Supreme Leader. Feeling distraught, X hands the puppy to Z as a gift, causing her to regain her pink color. The residents of Christmas Town give presents to the other Klepts, restoring them to their colorful selves.

At the break of dawn on Christmas morning, Santa laments that there is not enough time left to deliver Christmas gifts to all the children of the world. X takes to the sky with a number of other Klepts in spaceships, traveling around the planet and delivering the presents as Santa wished.
