* DuelingWorks: ''Arthur Christmas'' was released two years after Disney released ''WesternAnimation/PrepAndLanding'', a CGI short also centered around elves acting as a super-spy prep team for Santa, the only difference being that the Disney production focuses more on the elves while the Aardman film is about the Santa family dynamic. In fact, the sequel special to ''Prep & Landing'', titled ''Naughty vs. Nice'', was released only two weeks after this movie came out, making the comparison fresh on people's minds. It is likely both productions coincidentally started at around the same time and, once Disney's short came out, it was too late for ''Arthur Christmas'' to change course on its story. However, both works can also draw parallels with ''Film/TheSantaClause'', as it has the elite E.L.F.S. squad that rescues Scott Calvin with similar technology of jet packs and tinsel guns.
