Continuity mistake: In the scene in Central Park as Santa speaks with Michael, Santa's arm is either on the book of Christmas lists, or off it, as the scenes switch between looking over Michael's shoulder and over Santa's shoulder.

Its the best christmas movie I have ever came across.
0/10. This is one of the greatest Christmas movies ever? Seriously? Will Ferrell is one of those guys who hit it big for awhile on Saturday Night Live and has the charisma of a dead fish. Here it's just the usual holiday cliches that makes you want to hate the holiday season even more.

Buddy: We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.
Trivia: Originally, the store Buddy and Jovie work in was supposed to be a Macy's. However, Macy's quickly dropped out of the project when they got the script and saw that there was a scene where Buddy confronts a fake mall-Santa in the store for not being the real Santa. Reportedly, Macy's representatives indignantly told the studio that "Macy's Santa is the REAL Santa!"
Question: Did Will Ferrell have a stand-in for the mailroom dancing?
