After a fight with his half-brother Dingle Kringle (Tom Kenny) left the both of them frozen in the ice, elves from the North Pole find their bodies. A worker elf named Lex mistakes Santa for someone meant to fulfill an elf prophecy to lead their kind and, after Santa accidentally creates the sport of Elf Bowling, the elves gladly accept him as their leader.Centuries pass and Santa has become the Christmas figure he is known for today. When he forces his upper hand and makes his brother move out, Dingle hatches a plan to take Santa's title, kidnap the elves and move them to Fiji for his own nefarious purposes. Now Santa must find his brother and rescue his elves before Christmas is doomed.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A sequel to be titled Elf Bowling 2: The Great Halloween Pumpkin Heist was advertised at the movie's end, but was never made. |

Artistic License – History: There's a Time Passes Montage claiming that Santa and Dingle came to the North Pole in the 600s. However, the era seems far more similar to The Golden Age of Piracy. |
