Schools will most likely all be closed due to the fact this will be the first snow day for most. If there had already been some they'd probably just wait and maybe delay, but at this point will probably just call it early.

Well, they were just following the books. Even still, they adapted them out of order and in OHMSS we're just supposed to ignore they know what they look like because they've already met in YOLT.

The movie is just so joyless and uninteresting most of the time. The pacing doesn't work at all IMO and the two plots seem complete at odds with one another.

In Violent Night, we believe the character is Santa Claus. In Fatman, he just comes off as some random guy who can't pay his bills and runs a factory. For me, Fatman needed a better introduction to the world and Santa to buy into the rest.

It wasn't a good parody though. If that's what they wanted then fine, but it wasn't well done and was an unfocused mess that wanted to have it both ways and IMO failed at both.

The sequels are in fact not very good
