This was always one of my favorite Christmas movies growing up


I just rewatched this, haven’t seen it since probably 1998 and I think it’s still a great movie after all these years. The jokes come off as corny, but I still chuckle at them. Were the sequels worth watching if I enjoyed the first movie? I remember seeing the trailers at the time of release, but I always thought a sequel wasn’t needed and looked like a “Direct to DVD” movie.

Same here 😁

I was in my twenties when this came out and I like it more now than I did then. The second movie is amazing and magical as well and I like it even more, though certain parts were aimed more toward kids. I only saw the third once. I wasn't impressed.

I was 8 when this movie came out, and it's still very high on my list of Christmas movies we watch every year :D. The sequel was okay, but it didn't have quite the spark this one did.

I just watched The Santa Clause 2 and it had some really good moments that kinda had that feel of the first movie. Will probably watch the third one either tonight or wait until next Christmas. I still need to watch my yearly run of both Die Hard and Christmas Vacation haha.

NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't watch the 3rd one!!!!! It'll ruin everything you loved about the first two movies!!!! DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

reply

I agree. Just leave it with the first two.
