For me, the bad dreams were a way of saying the sandman didn’t exist, and just general meanness, the stealing of teeth was saying the tooth fairy didn’t exist/ couldn’t have a positive effect on the kids, and most randomly chosen by fate characters want to figure out ‘why’ by going back to their beginning. But I agree that it seemed a little ‘off.’ It was like I loved every individual second of the film, but as a whole they didn’t paint as awesome of a picture. Maybe it was the sort of check-list feel to it: “Ok, we did the Easter Bunny’s story, now time to tell the Tooth Fairy’s… Ok, check, now let’s talk about Santa…” I guess that might’ve been because the plot was taken from an actual series of books, not just one single book — so the parts were a bit disconected. Whatever, it still managed to be completely magical.
