The opening shot of the film demonstrates this trope beautifully as it pans across the wall full of portraits, showing us how the costume and the man have changed over the centuries (naturally, it's shown that Saint Nicolas was the very first Santa).

** Ms Claus says Trelew is on a course of 187.7 degrees south of the North Pole. As the northernmost point on Earth, ''everywhere'' is 180 degrees south.
** Sunrise in Plymouth - a city just over the Cornwall/Devon border - on Christmas Day is 8.16am, so it's safe to say it wouldn't be at 7.39am in Cornwall.

* WritersCannotDoMath: The Santa Claus term is established as being seven decades exactly. Grandsanta was Santa before his son, Malcolm, who by the beginning of the movie is on his 70th mission, however the former is stated to be 136. For both of them to have had 70 missions separately, Grandsanta would have to be at least 140, not including training years.

This trope is a bit better because this movie is not a crossover; it uses elements from many different Santa Claus mediums, but it’s not a crossover of any previous Santa Claus movies.
