The Santa Clause 2, 2002





Director: Michael Lembeck
Stars: Tim Allen, Judge Reinhold, Eric Lloyd, Wendy Crewson, Elizabeth Mitchell, David Krumholtz, Spencer Breslin





Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) has been enjoying being Santa Claus for almost 10 years now, but back home Charlie (Lloyd) is acting up in school, probably needing more attention from his dad. On top of that, Scott has a huge new problem: he has to get married! Apparently, the elves forgot about the "Mrs. Clause", and now Scott has only 28 days (until Christmas Eve) to get married or he will stop being Santa Claus.

In order to go back home and be there for Charlie (now on the naughty list) and also stay at the North Pole and get ready for Christmas, a toy Santa is developed and given Santa's memories, and elves Bernard (Krumholtz) and Curtis (Breslin) take over the job of teaching the new toy Santa how to be Santa.

So, it's back home he goes, to be there for Charlie and help deal with the problems that arise, especially with Charlie's school Principal, Carol Newman (Mitchell). Over the next few weeks, Scott decides that maybe Carol is the one, and starts to romance her. But Scott only has a certain amount of magic to use, and he uses it all to impress her.

Meanwhile, the Toy Santa has decided that everyone in the world is getting coal for Christmas, because they have all been naughty. Now, Scott must get back to the North Pole--- to save Christmas, of course!

Did I give too much away? I hope not. This one is very cute, though the first will alwyas be my favorite.
