Buddy: We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.
Trivia: Originally, the store Buddy and Jovie work in was supposed to be a Macy's. However, Macy's quickly dropped out of the project when they got the script and saw that there was a scene where Buddy confronts a fake mall-Santa in the store for not being the real Santa. Reportedly, Macy's representatives indignantly told the studio that "Macy's Santa is the REAL Santa!"
Question: Did Will Ferrell have a stand-in for the mailroom dancing?
