TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The creators decided to approach the character design with the idea to make them feel British and quirky, not air-brushed or appealing.

There were discussions over what differing time zones meant to the story's "before the sun comes up" deadline imposed in the plot of this movie. The idea of kids being awake in Australia while it's night in the United States was troubling. They ultimately decided that, for kids, Christmas is nighttime all over the world.

During Santa's speech celebrating the completion of the mission, Steve, in anticipation of being announced as the next Santa Claus, is seen holding cue cards in preparation of his acceptance speech. One of the cards reads: 1. What a surprise! 2. Humbled, moved, etc 3. New era 4. Take over Easter

Near the beginning of the film, when Santa arrives back at the North Pole and everyone is celebrating, a couple can briefly be seen kissing. This is an homage to the iconic Alfred Eisenstaedt photo of a sailor kissing a nurse (actually a dental assistant) on August 14, 1945 in Times Square. The sailor kissed the woman in celebration of Japan's surrender, signifying that World War II was over.

Screenwriter Peter Baynham, born in Cardiff, Wales, included a reference to an obscure bit of Welsh history in his script, with Mimosa Avenue in Trelew. In 1865, about one hundred fifty Welsh emigrants sailed on the ship Mimosa to Patagonia, Argentina. They founded a town called Trelew, where there is now a street called Mimosa, after the ship. Baynham postulated an avenue by that name in Trelew, Cornwall, to complete the confusion between the two locations.

Popular Dialogues

"Grandsanta: You were right, Arthur. It doesn't matter how Santa's gift gets there. Doesn't even matter if it's Mr. Postman in his spaceship. Arthur: As long as it gets there. Grandsanta: You made it happen, lad! No one got left out."

"Arthur: But there's a child without a present. Steve: Arthur, Christmas is not a time for emotion."
