"You sit on a throne of lies!" is a quote from which film?

Buddy, a human elf (Will Ferrell), uses the quote "You sit on a throne of lies!" in the 2003 film "Elf". A fake Santa is telling lies to kids and Buddy said what he felt he had to say to the fake Santa. He wanted the bad Santa at that point to know that his accomplishments or success were all gained from lies.

Several film critics said, "The quote means that the figures such as the sham Santa in this film use a long list of lies to suspend their belief system. Their belief system is like a thrown that makes them feel comfortable. However, once the delusions are dispelled the bogus entities tend to fall on their butt."

"Elf" is an American Christmas comedy film that was directed by Jon Favreau, written by David Berenbaum, and produced by Jon Berg, Todd Komarnicki, and

Shauna Robertson. Besides starring Ferrell, there is James Caan, Zooey Deschanel, Mary Steenburgen, Daniel Tay, Bob Newhart and Ed Asner. The film centers on Buddy, a person who was adopted and raised by Santa's elves. He learns about this and heads to New York City to meet his biological father while also spreading Christmas cheer. He also finds a world with a large number of cynics.

"Elf" was released in the USA in November 2003 by New Line Cinema. It obtained both critical and commercial success, grossing $220 million worldwide against a $33 million budget. Ferrell's performance as Buddy the Elf was praised by audiences and critics alike.
