Questions about The Santa Clause

In The Santa Clause, Scott Calvin startles Santa, he falls off the roof and dies. Scott Calvin reads the Clause and is now Santa. This implies that if you realistically want to be Santa, you have to kill him. Does this imply there is a potential power struggle for that job, like Santa has the added job of trying to stay alive?Also, What happens to the current Mrs. Claus when Santa dies on the job, is she kicked out of the North Pole or forced to remain there or is she killed as well?Would Charlie gain the Santa mantle if Tim Allen died naturally at a time when it wasn't Christmas?Why does Neil and Charlie's mom (and for that matter pre-Santa death Scott Calvin) insist Santa doesn't exist, but there are actual fucking presents under the tree Christmas morning that they didn't put there? Where the fuck do they think they came from?Edit: According to The Santa Clause 2, he HAS to find a wife within a certain time frame or Christmas is over. So hypothetically OJ Simpson could murder Santa and become the right jolly old elf himself and then some woman would have to agree to be his wife or the holiday is destroyed.Further edit: If Santa finds a woman who agrees to be his wife, what if she kills him after they married? Does she become Santa?Fuck it, let's go deeper: In The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause, Jack Frost is arrested by the Elf Police. This implies a level of government in the North Pole that has developed laws and that there are consequences for breaking those laws. North Pole prison, in theory, exists and they probably execute people if the crime is harsh enough. What unknown force dictates all this and please, dear God, tell me it's not Santa himself. If that's the case then you literally can rule an entire populace of people if you kill the leader, no questions asked. via /r/movies http://ift.tt/2ApoJoh
