I cannot believe they botched the ending of that movie. Kid wants to be a dentist, right? They encounter a mean snowman, right? They manage to knock him out. Now was the elf’s chance to inspect the snowman’s teeth and find out he just had a bad tooth. He pulls it out or fixes it or whatever, proves he’s a talented dentist, snowman wakes up and now that he is no longer in pain he’s friendly again.
Boom you’ve made a new friend, and most importantly proved your dentistry had a point.
But nooo they were like “let’s pull all his teeth out before we kill him”. Cause that’s the message you want from a Christmas movie.
