Everything Wrong With The Santa Clause 2 In 18 Minutes Or Less
Outtakes are here: https://youtu.be/YPS20_kUzGk
The Santa Clause, the first one, was a pleasant if harmlessly fun Christmas movie. The sequel, however, is just atrocious. It's so bad. You won't even believe how bad this movie is.
Next week: adventure sins and classic Christmas sins.
Remember, no movie is without sin. Which movie's sins should we count next?

(It's right in his contract—the "Mrs. Clause") Desperate, Scott turns to the elves' new invention—a machine that can replicate anything—to create Santa II (a toy version of himself) and he leaves his double in charge. Things quickly go south at the North Pole when Santa II institutes some strange redefinitions of what's naughty and nice; worse, when Scott finally falls for a potential Mrs. Claus, she threatens to drive a wedge betwee...
