One thing you missed, Max being a kid is a reference to Kevin being a kid in the original movie. Man, the attention to detail is amazing!

It's a common thing in the series. So was in Home Alone 3, HA4, Holiday Heist, Five Nights at Freddy's, and so on.

[@MoviesWithDallin]

Some of these are a stretch. #19 Kevin didn't have a fear of old people. He was scared of Old Man Marley because Buzz told him he was a serial killer and he was scared of the pigeon lady because she was covered in pigeons. It had nothing to do with them being old.

[@jossuecabrera8611]

I still don't get why that old lady is scarry. Its birds. Not rats, not bats, not even chipmunks that can tear off your flesh in seconds, just birds. It's not like Kevin is even scarred of pigeons, it's just that lady.

[@kevj5228]

The remake sounds awful but why couldn’t they ever do a new one where Kevin is the father and has some type of argument with his kid and accidentally leaves him or her alone. The wet/sticky bandits return and possibly some of the original cast. Somehow Kevin finds out that the bandits are back and even though a lot older he realizes they are still dangerous and tries to get back home to his kid before they do. There could even be a few flashbacks to the first two movies as well. Obviously we will never see a movie like this but I think it would be better than home sweet home alone.

[@steelstreet3765]

You forgot something. When Pam McKenzie turns on the water in the garden, it gets wet, the jet is deflected. It's similar to "Home Alone 3" when Burton Jernigan turns on the wrong water tap and the jet is diverted as well.

[@Wglass90]

Aside from from the obvious nods and references to the original two Home Alone films, I believe there is another one that not many people even thought to pick up on. I believe this to be a very big stretch since this is only a theory and not something officially confirmed, but I believe the character of Pam McKenzie played by Ellie Kemper to be the adult grown up granddaughter of Old Man Marley from the first film. Both are red heads, Pam's daughter sings in the church choir just like her mother would've as a little girl as shown in the church scene in the first Home Alone film when Marley and Kevin were talking to each other. Marley's granddaughter and Pam would be around the same age, Pam is very family oriented and Christmas seemed like a special time for her. A wiki has the granddaughter from Home Alone named as "Madison Marley", but that's not actually official because she was nameless in the actual Home Alone script/movie. Also, very little is known about Pam's side of the family in Home Sweet Home Alone as her husband Jeff's brother and his family are the ones who visit and spend Christmas with the McKenzies. So anything is possible. Some would probably think this is messed up since it would make Marley's granddaughter 'bad', but the recent movie seemed to really give the impression that Pam and Jeff aren't really bad people and that the whole plot of the film is the result of a misunderstanding that eventually gets resolved. While the film isn't exactly great, the references and nods to the first two movies, and some potential theories like the one I just shared are a plus at least.

I understand that the developers behind this movie want to capitalize on Home Alone and Home Alone 2, not just remaking Home Alone movie but by including Easter eggs including cameo of Buzz McCallister (as an adult police) and McCallister home security sign. But while the movie can be divisive, the movie itself should have added actual villains. And no not the Mackenzies because while they did break into Max’s house they aren’t actual criminals and mistakenly though their doll or property is in Max’s house unlike Harry and Marv from Home Alone and Home Alone 2 who tries to get a revenge from Kevin and actually steals things or good. They at least should have added actual criminals/villains at the end, who are also trying to break in to get the doll just so that they can sell it for a high cash and steal some other items, and no they don’t have to be Harry and Marv. Besides that the traps on Home Sweet Home Alone are similar to Home Alone and Home Alone 2, the traps were entertaining just like the previous movies, as the best moment from Home Alone franchise
