Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCopies of both the Santa and Rudolph puppets were found in storage in the attic of a woman that used to work for Rankin-Bass. The puppets were in rather poor condition (Santa was missing his eyebrows and half his mustache, and his legs were broken; Rudolph's iconic nose was missing and replaced with red wax), but amazingly survived being stored in a hot attic since the late 1960's. They have since been restored by Screen Novelties to their former glory and now travel the country to various trade shows and conventions.
- GoofsAlthough the film was copyrighted and released in 1964, the Roman numerals copyright date in the main titles is shown as "MCLXIV", which would be the year 1164, eight centuries earlier. 1964 is MCMLXIV, in Roman numerals.
- Quotes
[Rudolph, Yukon, and Hermey are traveling through thick fog]
Yukon Cornelius: This fog's as thick as peanut butter!
Hermey: [Correcting Yukon] You mean pea soup.
Yukon Cornelius: [after Hermey corrects him] You eat what you like, and I'll eat what I like!
- Crazy creditsIf you pay close attention to the opening credits, below the credit of "Burl Ives sings", you'll see a small house fly buzzing around on the fake snow!
- Alternate versionsThe 1964 showing did not have Santa picking up toys from the Island of Misfit Toys at the end. A letter-writing campaign ensued and the new ending was added in 1965. Also in 1965, sponsor General Electric insisted on replacing the song "We're a Couple of Misfits" with "Fame and Fortune", a change that lasted until 1998, when "Misfits" was put back in.
