The scene where the pigeon lady threw the birdseed on Marv and Harry was already funny. It's even funnier knowing that a couple of years prior to this movie, the actress who played the pigeon lady, Brenda Fricker, was the one who presented Joe Pesci with his Oscar that he won for his performance in "Goodfellas". I think it's safe to say he enjoyed receiving the Oscar from her just a little better than he did with the birdseed.😁

I wanted to see a Home Alone movie where Kevin falls in love with Marley’s granddaughter. It seems like they were setting it up to eventually happen. There was some fan fiction about it. The latest trailer for a Home Alone movie has Culkin finally returning to the franchise as a adult going against the Wet Bandits again, Buzz is a cop, Kevin is telling his mother what happened when he was left alone the first time, and looks like he has some help from someone against the bandits. I am happy McCauley will finally return to the franchise. That is what all the Home Alone movies that came after this movie lacked. They were just trying to recreate the magic of the first movie with a different child each time. They failed every time because it wasn’t Kevin. So I am hoping this new movie, with will be better even if the Marley Granddaughter isn’t in the movie. I will wait and see what happens.

Ive been seeing this movie done by a number of reactors lately, of course since its that time of year. And my question lately has been this. Can the hotel charge them for Kevin's room service bill? They checked him into the hotel with what they discovered was a "stolen credit card" and accused him of stealing the card and chasing him out onto the streets. So they can't charge for his room or the charges he racked up because it was charged to a "stolen" credit card. Once the rest of the family got there, the room was given to them free of charge as an apology for their masive screw up with Kevin and how they handled it. So even if they wanted to charge him they cannot because he is a minor and they can't later charge the family because the room was comped.

Macauley Culkin said he enjoyed this one more than the original, but it’s basically a repeat of the original with a different setting. Catherine O’Hara, the mom, was an SCTV alumni in the 80s, along with John Candy.

For the record, $967 in 1992 would equal about $2116.31 today.

Fun review as always! It's amazing how the filmmakers struck lightning twice. Still a classic!

Marv is such a fun character. Daniel Stern is great. I especially enjoyed him in a movie called Born in East LA. Such an under rated movie.

John Williams composed music for "Daddy-O". Kevin McCallister has a cousin with curly hair. The girl from Beakman's World.

That would be Tracy McCallister, played by Senta Moses. I had a huge crush on her when I was a kid.

The electrocution scene scared me so much as a kid my mom could feel my heart beating through my chest but I always insisted on watching the movie for some reason. I loved the movie then (except for Marv getting zapped lol) and still love it today.

I think the most unrealistic thing about this movie is that they left a bag full of money on a New York City street at night, and nobody walked off with it. That, and there was no foot or car traffic for the entire duration of their time there. No NYC street is COMPLETELY empty that's not out in the boonies somewhere.

Is it wrong that I LOVE your channel...not because of the reactions you do, but because of the person you are. Of course you are beautiful, and I HATE myself for not being a better writer. Thank you for your channel and Merry Christmas.

How these two aren't chronically injured or have fears of Kevin and Kevin's arsenal is absolutely astounding. Steer clear of this kid until you are far, far away...wait...I got it. Home alone 5, lost ...in space? Anyone?
