The whole thing about the ordeal with the wet bandits is all in Kevin's head is kind of ridiculous and is debunked when Peter finds Harry's gold tooth on the floor. As for old man Marley showing up to save Kevin with his shovel, that is easily explained in the window scene with Buzz when he talked about how every night he walks up and down the streets salting the sidewalks. Marley was out salting the sidewalks, like every night, he sees Kevin run across the road towards a neighbor's house and hears him say "I'm Calling the cops" and two men chase him across the street. He follows with his shovel in hand and when he enters the house and hears what the bandits plan to do, he takes action and saves Kevin.

I watched this moving 100s of times growing up and always believed it was Santa teaching Kevin a lesson. Kinda of a weird Christmas Miracle. He passed his test and his family arrived on Christmas aka the Miracle. That means his mom would have made it just the same but due to a mother's love she couldn't wait but never would have made it earlier. She arrived exactly when she was supposed to.

I always liked how the relationship between Kevin and Old Man Marley developed, from the cartoonish to the two really fleshed out personalities. So that theory about time travel really appeals to me. It is interesting that Marley makes sure that Kevin gets home after rescueing him, but Marley apparently never questions about Kevin being alone. It's as though Marley knows Kevin will be alright alone in his house, safe until his mom gets home in the morning. Marley must've already known he was ok, because he and Kevin are indeed the same person.

I could actually add more weight to your theory of the first movie's events unfolding based on a wish. Since Santa is the one delivering his wish, of course, he did it to teach Kevin the value of family during the holidays. The wish was breaking when he yelled for his mom then mom hearing it and responding in a frantic to make efforts to get home ASAP. The rest of his family shown up because he goes to a Santa think he is an agent that will pass the message to the "real Santa." He tells the agent, he wants all his family back and if he has time, Uncle Frank as well. That's when the family shown up shortly after Kate but not Uncle Frank's family, making it so that was the wish that couldn't be fulfilled but his immediate family coming back is granted. Santa also made the Wet Bandits happen as well as to teach Kevin his lesson and regret wishing his family away which is why they survived every punishment and traps that should have by all rights killed them. They were supernatural entities sent by Santa to teach Kevin how much he needs and would miss his family as he was scared to be without them when bad things were happening and he couldn't be comforted by them. Yes, he attacked them to defend his home but they survived traps without serious or mortal injury in a cartoony way. You also forgot to point out Kate realized it was a wish in the sequel, responding to Kevin this time wishing for his own vacation with "You got your wish last year, maybe you'll get it again this year!"

My theory is that Old Man Marley really was the South Bend Shovel Slayer. -Each interaction with Kevin, he glares at him in internal conflict. The first time, especially. Like, he's thinking: "I could kill this kid and no one is here to notice." -It's never fully explained about the issues with him and his family. Why does his son want nothing to do with him? -He's pretty darn good with that Shovel. He clubbers the wet bandits with it with such precision. Doesn't even bat an eye. Like he's done it before. -We know why Kevin doesn't talk to the cops at the end, but why doesn't Marley stay to talk to them and explain anything?

11. Alarm clocks are rare and very expensive in the Home Alone universe. The McCallisters are a family with money. They live in a mansion in Chicago and take extended family on vacations during the holidays. The house is full of teens and pre-teens that clearly have difficulty waking up early. This partially led to the family experiencing the worst-case scenario from sleeping in late, ultimately ruining the trip to Paris for the entire family. Despite all of this, there is STILL only one alarm clock in the entire household in the 2nd movie.

In the 33 years that I have watched Home Alone, I never stopped to think that it's never explained in the film or the sequel, what Kevin's dad does for a living in order for them to have such wealth. So the money laundering theory does hold some weight, as well as he may have been involved to a degree with the Wet Bandits. As Minty points out he acts very nonchalant when he sees that Kevin is alright when everybody gets home.

The theory of Peter McAllister being a crime boss is more credible than you think. Consider this, in Lethal Weapon, what is the name of the general who heads the heroin shipment operation? That’s right, it’s General Peter McAllister. Lethal Weapon and Home Alone take place in the same universe. Now, this next one might be a bit of a stretch but as for Kevin handing the wet bandits being some sort of training exercise for the future, it’s even possible that Kevin, may be in fact Mr. Joshua.

The magical wish is what I always understood to be fact in the movie and not a theory. I mean it's pretty obvious that it's what we are meant to understand from that whole sequence when he makes the wish.

Number 1 is the plot. That's not a theory, that is exactly what happens in the movie.

When it comes to Kevin imagining it you didn’t think about the second movie when the robbers recognize Kevin and Kevin gets them slapped from a woman

The only “fan theory” that has ever made sense to me is one I actually tend to love and that’s that Colonel Peter McCallister from Lethal Weapon left his drug money to his son, Peter McCallister (Jr). That’s a yearly double feature for me.

Watched this the other day with the fam and we stopped it several times to discuss... I also wondered what the heck the family does for a living. Even in the sequels their immense wealth is never explained. Suppose it wasn't considered relevant. Always bugged me that the plumber van just sits around the same neighborhood every single day and even carry around their loot. Remember they have to unload the van before coming back on the infamous trap night.

I love the Elvis theory as I worked with Gary Grott during the late 80’s, early 90’s. He was a great down to earth guy and you would have never known he was in the movie unless you seen it.

My personal theory is that Home Alone 3 exists in the same universe as 1 & 2 because the moms, Kate McCallister and Karen Pruitt, are sisters. Both redheads that actually look uncannily similar to each other. So, that would make Alex from 3 Kevin's (and siblings') cousin on his mom's side. For the "how come they were never seen or mentioned in the first 2 movies?" crowd, recall that the first 2 movies surround the dad's side of the family, not the mom's.

The actor who played Peter McCallister was in Big, where he was a toy executive. Maybe he took the idea of cartridges for comicbooks and sold it to make the money. Had to change his name?

I remember when I was in school and my friend Grant and I would watch this movie after our classes. Every time we saw that close up of Santa we would mock scream in fear as if Santa was something to fear, like Home Alone had turned into a horror movie. In a way it did, with Kevin trying to avoid the Wet Bandits. Maybe Kevin didn't turn into Jigsaw, but he could have easily become someone similar.
