Miracle In Toyland is a 2000 animated film by Golden Films and GoodTimes Entertainment. It is notably one of their few movies to be an original work instead of a mockbuster.The story centers around a lonely boy named Jesse, whose father is a distant military man sent out to work on Christmas, and whose only friend is his cousin, Gabriella. After accidentally upsetting her, as well, he ends up alone in a toy-store, where he ends up becoming friends with the living toys. When his father's plane crashes on a mountain, he and the toys set out to save them.

Non-Indicative Title: If the "miracle" referred to in the title is Jesse and the toys saving the latter's father, then it does not, in fact, happen "in Toyland", but rather on a snowy mountain.

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Upon learning that the people before him are sentient, human-size toys, Jesse's dad instead focuses on his strained relationship with his son. No one at the hospital seems to find anything odd about it either.

Stock "Yuck!": The female elf toy wants caviar when the toys suggest ordering food. Everyone else reacts with overt disgust.

Satellite Character: Gabriella. She exists solely to bring Jesse to Toyland, and create an event that triggers Jesse's meltdown about how no one loves him.

Aside Glance: Exaggerated. The beginning song ends with a close-up of Jesse's face as he turns his head to look at the screen for four seconds for no reason.

All Just a Dream
 Miracle in Toyland / int_ea85d6ea
comment
All Just a Dream: Played straight with the dream Jesse has at the beginning of being a soldier. Zig-zagged with the sequence where Jesse is shrunk down and then helps the toys; he thinks it was all a dream, but the toys are shown living before and after it. Jesse thinks it was a dream when he wakes up, but after his dad is reported missing and the magic feather flies out of a crumpled poster, Jesse decides the experience was real after all, and goes back to Toyland for help.

Easily Forgiven: When Jesse is devastated that a toy soldier apparently died because of him, the other toys tell him not to worry and give him another chance to be helpful.

Artistic License – Physics: The trampoline Jesse uses to reach the top of the stack of toy soldiers bounces him far higher than would be possible in real life. Jesse stacks several cardboard boxes to try and break into Toyland, and climbs up to the top but then loses his balance and falls, never mind that he shouldn't have been able to climb up the tower in the first place on account of how light the (presumably empty) boxes are. Jesse is able to ride in a rubber dinghy being pulled by the enlarged toy plane.

Save the Jerk
 Miracle in Toyland / int_fd6c6983
comment
Save the Jerk: Downplayed. Jesse's father was a neglectful one throughout the film, despite Jesse's attempts to have a relationship with him. Despite his own tendency to be a Jerkass, Jesse's Character Development turns him into a much more selfless character by the end, and he manages to win his father over by risking his life to save him from dying on a snowy mountain.

comment
Artistic License – Economics: When Jesse finds the "treasure" on the pirate ship, he immediately declares that everyone here is rich. No one ever seems to consider that it's fake toy money and thus not usable as legal currency. Possibly justified for the toys in that they wouldn't know how the world works outside Toyland, but Jesse never corrects them.
