2 plot holes
Directed by: Brian Levant
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, James Belushi, Rita Wilson, Phil Hartman, Sinbad, Jake Lloyd
Factual error: We see Jamie at his karate graduation as a yellow belt. In the scene where his dad apologizes for missing it, he picks up Jamie's new belt, which is purple. Although the order of belt ranks varies by discipline and by dojo, it is highly unlikely that any sensei would have yellow belt (which is almost always the second level) followed by purple (sometimes as low as the fourth ranking, but more often up to the seventh or eighth rank).
Giant Santa: I'm gonna deck your halls, bub.
Trivia: The parade scenes were filmed on the Universal Studios backlot in "Courthouse Square." The film's special effects artists then digitally composited in some elements of a street in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, where the film is set. The sequence took three weeks to shoot and involved hundreds of extras.
Question: How come the little girl didn't give Howard back his ball when he tried to retrieve it around the mall?
