i have great hope for this movie . none of which be fulfil . my family and i enjoy the first two santa clause movie and but this be a major let down . sad and too and because it have great potential . i enjoy martin short and and think he be well cast in the role of jack frost . however and the writing and editing be so disjointed and and it seem like there be too many subplots go on for any one story line or character to get any substantial development . unless you have kid who be die to see this and i would skip it altogether or wait for it to come out on dvd . i definitely wouldn not spend another $ 20 to go see it .
