The Santa Clause 2

Teen shown committing acts of vandalism -- defacing school property with graffiti. Some comic violence. Scott falls over a railing and down the stairs after attempting to have one of his teeth removed by tying it to a toaster and dropping the toaster. A reindeer learning how to fly knocks his passengers into cars and mailboxes. Teens throw snowballs at the principal's house.

When the newly created robotic Santa emerges from the North Pole assembly line, it's a near exact replica of Tim Allen as Santa Claus; there's a very brief shot of the robot's rear end, intended to be a moment of humor.

The robotic Santa, after chugging a large mug of cocoa, talks of "feeling a little buzz" while shaking his head and acting like someone who just drank a shot of alcohol.

Parents need to know that The Santa Clause 2 is a holiday movie in which Tim Allen brings back his spin on St. Nick. Some potty humor is included, such as flatulence jokes and a brief close-up of the exposed rear end of the robotic Santa Claus replica (also played by Tim Allen). After chugging a large mug of cocoa, the robotic Santa does an exaggerated imitation of someone who has just had a shot of alcohol, talks of "feeling a little buzz." A teen character acts out by vandalizing school property. There's some pratfall violence: A character falls over a railing and downstairs after trying to yank out his tooth by tying the tooth to a toaster and dropping the toaster. While the movie has strong, intelligent female characters, the elves (played by children) conform to 1950s-era stereotypes, with the boys creating toys and playing football while the girls deliver the cookies and cocoa. There are very few minority characters, and the movie doesn't acknowledge any other religious or cultural holiday traditions.
