    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Whilst the film was recorded in Canada by most of the cast, there were a few exceptions that were recorded in the United States. Examples include John Goodman as Santa and Whoopi Goldberg as Stormella.
    • Goofs
      In the Reindeer games race, Rudolph was #5, Zoey was #7, and Arrow was #1. When Arrow ticked off Rudolph causing his nose to blind Arrow and caused the crash that took a lot of the field out as a result, Zoey made it through and came in second. If you watch it, it was #5 and #7 that crossed the finish line in that order. So technically, when Rudolph lost the race by a technical fault, Zoey should have been declared the winner by default.

      • Slyly the Fox: So uh, what'cha running away from kid?
      • Grown-Up Rudolph: Who says I'm running away from anything?
      • Slyly the Fox: Heh, I can read ya's like a book, kid. Your family never understood ya. Your friends, they all turned their backs on ya. You couldn't take it anymore, so ya's upped and ya's left.
      • Grown-Up Rudolph: Wow, you're good.
