    curtis was so preoccupied with the idea of cloning santa into a toy, that he didn’t stop to think if he should

    They really had to introduce us to the villain, fascist toy Santa, with a closeup of his plastic ass…

    The scene with the faculty Christmas party where Scott uses his Santa magic to give the adults presents they wanted in their youth is one of the purest in film history.

    day 2 of my 2025 christmas watch list. i love the storyline between him and mrs clause but the movie felt a bit all over the place with the toy santa storyline as well. could’ve been 2 separate movies in my opinion.

    I feel like the first one was a good standalone movie and this was unneeded. But it’s okay.

    Also never gets old, but if this or Santa Clause 1 were to get old, this one would get older first.

    “There ain’t no sanity clause!” — Chico Marx True, but there is a Santa Clause No. 2, which requires that Santa get married, or else. This information is revealed at the North Pole at the worst possible time, during the pre-Christmas manufacturing rush, when Air Force listening planes hear what sounds like “tiny hammers” from beneath the snow. The current occupant of the Santa suit is happy supervising his elves and perfecting his chimney-craft, when he’s informed of a loophole…
