Bad Santa 2 - Drunk History

Entered in Facebook Video

Objectives

Comedy Central was tasked with creating custom shoot-based content that positioned the next installment of the Bad Santa franchise as the must-see comedy of the holiday season. To accomplish our task, we got to thinking on ideas that would tie into our Comedy Central properties, highlight the star power of the film and remind our audience of the reasons why they love this movie.
