Another Fact: Because of all the similarities to Rudolph, the filmmakers were worried they might get sued by Rankin/Bass, thankfully they didn't.

I thought it was cute that Buddy and Jovie decided to name their daughter after Buddy’s biological mother.

I love your channel. You give off facts about movies and you teach me new things. I can't imagine all the research you have to do to make one of these videos. If i was on camera, i wouldn't hide my face.

Merry Christmas to my favorite YouTuber who knows all about movies like I do! By the way, my girlfriend and I legit watched It’s a Wonderful Life for the first time yesterday although I recognized certain footages of it from certain movies. Also, Elf is my girlfriend’s favorite Christmas movie.

*THANK GOD Wanda Sykes was not in Elf! That would have been a sad tragedy. The movie is perfect as it is.*

PS: Great video, very informative. Thanks for sharing... and Merry Christmas 🌲!

The laugh in the jack in the box scene also sounds the same as Rippa Roo on Crash Bandicoot

SEEING THIS GREAT CHRISTMAS FILM I THOUGHT THE BUDGET WAS MILLIONS. NOW KNOWING THE GROSS SALES OF THIS THRILLS ME EVEN MORE!!

[therealseanw.stewart]

That first one is kinda like a stock laugh, some folks also associate it with Ripper Roo from Crash Bandicoot.

The Susie name could also be for the "Susie talks a lot" doll that the little girl wanted and that might have been stuck in buddy's head.
