Watched this with my son last year (he was 3, almost 4) and one thing I never thought of is that movies like these, while great, potentially introduce the whole "Santa isn't real" thing to kids a lot sooner than they would otherwise organically hear it. So I wasn't a fan of that. I don't think he paid it much mind though, and he loved the movie (and the second one too).

My wife made a similar argument to me when I suggested we show our kids The Santa Clause. I thought it was a good point, but then I thought that it really shortens the window to show it to kids; late enough to where the idea of Santa not being real has been introduced but early enough that they still believe.

Also, in regards to this movie, think of all the people spelling Santa Claus incorrectly due to the popularity of all of these products.
