3 | * The Dutch girl that spoke Dutch? She was speaking ''real'' Dutch, the production team took the time to find a child who spoke the real language. Thus ensuring the scene's believability. |
4 | ** The same with the little deaf girl in the 1994 version. They changed it from a Dutch girl because the original had her as a war orphan and that would make far less sense in 1994. |
5 | * Along that line, SantaClaus speaking Dutch may be a MythologyGag, considering the name Santa Claus comes from the Dutch language word for Saint Nikolas, and St Nick himself is the Patron Saint of Amsterdam |

8 | * In the 1994 remake, either [[spoiler:Santa did a Virgin Mary routine on Dorey, or he knew exactly when she was ovulating to orchestrate a liaison so she could conceive a child]]. Neither option is particularly appealing. |
9 | ** There's another option that may actually be ''worse'': Kris may have tampered with Dorey's birth control. |
10 | ** Assuming [[spoiler:she ''was'' pregnant at that time. It's possible he counted Dorey getting married on Christmas as a set-up for Susan's wish for a sibling.]] |
11 | ** It was heavily implied. That's enough to be horrifying. |

13 | * In all versions, the thought that they nearly committed the REAL Santa Claus to a mental institution is horrifying. |

17 | * Exactly how do you make martinis "double-strength"? They're pretty much all booze to begin with. All you could really do is have more of them or a bigger glass. |
18 | ** Twice as much gin relative to the other ingredients? |
19 | *** The other ingredient is vermouth - another alcohol. |
20 | *** Actually they probably do mean more gin, as it is roughly 40% Alcohol by volume compared to Vermouth's rather piddly 15%. |
21 | ** Most likely, the line in the script just said "double." |
