re: Let's Overanalyze "Home Alone" and "Home Alone 2"

Just started on ABC family. Little neros order came out to $122.50 for 10 pizzas.

Earlier wasn't someone saying that the pizza was hella expensive from LN? That seems pretty reasonable to me.

Well check out the big brain on Brett














Lol

Little Neros is just a douchey name for a pizza place. It reminds me of Little Ceasers

What gets me is when his dad screams at him about the room service bill from their suite window at the Plaza.

SRSLY?

Your 10 year old was alone in New York City with no relatives, friends or acquaintances and nowhere to go. What the frick is he supposed to do for food and sustenance when he has access to a credit card, go to a soup kitchen?

Plus, he's freaking ten years old. For all he knows, the movies on TV and the awesome food they're bringing to his room are free. POS parents.

something I've never noticed...when the remaining mccallisters arrive home, they are seemingly unconcerned about kevin's welfare

no hugs, no "oh my god, are you ok, how are you doing, etc."

it's sort of a nonchalant "hey there little guy (ruffles hair) how ya doing buddy"

Because they don't give a flying frick about Kevin. The only thing the McCalisters give a shite about is their own image, and fricking Kevin over. When they saved both, they just decide to continue fricking him over.

Are we up and running on abc fam every evening round dinner time yet?

Story notes version is the shite

Kevin has always been kind of been a shithead in the eyes of the fam beyond his Mom. He is a whiny annoyance, albeit probably expected the way he is often overlooked by everyone.

The mom and Kevin always had the tightest connection.

In the original, Kevin knows exactly what time the bad guys are going show up to burglarize the house. He runs home and sets up traps that normally would've taken hours or perhaps an entire day. He also sprays water on the steps to create an ice slick.

He does all of this within less than an hour before go time.

1) Water won't freeze solid that quickly. I mean, he turned the steps into solid ice! No way in hell it happens that quickly.

2) The traps would take forever to setup

3) He puts a hot iron on the doorknob which could've easily caused a housefire...unless that entire door was made of metal.

4) He starts to make himself dinner at the very moment the bad guys are planning to show up. The clock chimes at the moment he's sitting down to eat. What an idiot. Why even make dinner at that moment? It's go time, Kevin! Are you telling me that Kevin wasn't the least bit nervous. He's calmly sitting there about ready to enjoy a meal when the clock chimes, at which point his eyes grow big and then he flips the frick out. Doesn't make sense.

5) Where did he find enough rope to stretch from the 2nd floor bedroom to the tree house? Assuming that his father had that much rope in storage, when did he stretch the rope? Was this one of the many things he did between church (which was in the evening) and the arrival of the bad guys? It had to be. He developed his plan that day and then went to church.

On top of that, how would a kid Kevin's age know how to tie a proper rope knot? More than likely he would've tied a poor knot which would've resulted in his death fall from the 2nd floor window...or at least broken legs or a crushed spine.


I mean, frick! I can go on-and-on about how retarded this movie is...
