“The Santa Clause” Goofs List

  • Continuity: On the table at Denny’s is a little plastic holder with a card advertising egg nog. In all the shots of the table the plastic holder is facing toward Scott. But in the very last overhead shot, it is facing towards the empty seat to Scott’s left.
  • Continuity: When Scott Calvin is wearing the Santa suit in the early part of the film, the coat has a strip of white fur down the front. However later, when he gets arrested, the coat has two fur pom-poms down the front. And after he is released and comes back to the house, there is only one fur pom-pom on the front of the jacket.
  • Continuity: At the end, when Laura burns the custody papers, the fire is burning. In the next shot of the fireplace, the fire is out.
  • Revealing mistakes: The light switch in the bedroom is already off when Scott turns the lights out.
  • Continuity: When Scott is reading “The Night Before Christmas”, the pages of the book and the book being opened and closed change constantly between shots.
  • Continuity: In the opening of the movie, the car is alternately clear of snow and ice, then frosted over between shots.
  • Revealing mistakes: When Santa Claus is slipping on the roof at the beginning, after he’s startled by Scott, you can see that the “snow” is a piece of fabric as it folds under his feet.
  • Errors in geography: The scene where Scott and Charlie pull into the Denny’s parking lot a sign that says “The Beer Store” can be seen- “The Beer Store” is where people only in Ontario buy beer by the case. This film is supposed to take place in Illinois.
  • Continuity: When Scott is at the North Pole for the first time, he is given a cookie. As Bernard talks about the card and reads it, the cookie is alternately bitten/whole with Scott never having had taken a bite.
  • Continuity: As the ELFS fly over the police car, the policeman spills his coffee on his shirt. When the camera cuts back to him, his shirt is dry.
  • Miscellaneous: If watching with closed captioning, Judy’s voice comes from Scott’s hat asking if he’s OK while he’s getting arrested. The caption shows Charlie’s name instead of Judy’s. This has been corrected in later versions.
  • Continuity: During the meeting with the principal, after Scott Calvin came to “Job Day” at his son’s class, Scott’s tie pin alternates between a round pin and a green (?) diamond/square tie pin.
  • Revealing mistakes: Near the end of the film, as the SWAT team surrounds the house, you can see one team member slip near the front steps and the snow “buckles” revealing itself to be a blanket and not real, or even fake, snow flakes.
  • Continuity: While Charile and his mom are saying good bye on Christmas Eve, Scott is shown placing a cookbook on the counter. The shot switches back to Charlie and his mom. When the shot goes back to Scott, he is placing the cookbook on the counter again.
  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Charlie is telling his father about Neil’s opinion on Santa Clause Scott says that Neil is not a doctor he is a psychiatrist. By definition a psychiatrist is a licensed medical doctor, who has not only earned a medical degree (MD), but has further specialized in the field of psychiatry.
  • Continuity: At the soccer game, Neal hands Scott his card and places his wallet in his back pocket. When Neal and Laura are walking back to the car with Charlie, Neal places his wallet in his back pocket again.
  • Continuity: The location of the polar bear behind them as Scott talks to Charlie at the zoo.
  • Errors in geography: In two shots near the end of the movie, Scott and Charlie are flying into the city in Illinois where they live and there are huge mountains on one side of the city.
