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

Okay, more on the pizza thing...I completely forgot that early in the movie, the pizza that everyone was eating was delivered. And by the same kid actually:
That's ten pizzas, and the total he tells Joe Pesci (and then later Uncle Frank) is $122.50. So that's $12.25 per pizza. I guess if we still go with the "upscale Chicago suburb pizza joint can charge more" theory, then there wouldn't have been any deals. So $12.25 per pie (of different toppings, one of which we know was a plain cheese) compared to Kevin's $11.80 plain cheese seems about right.
Also, it always kinda bugged me that once Kevin and Marley have their discussion in the church, that Kevin didn't explain shite to him about what was going on. I mean, he lives next fricking door, and is clearly a responsible adult, so why wouldn't you be like "Hey, so these two assholes are supposed to come rob me tonight around nine. Think you can help me with that?" I mean, I know Kevin may already have some distrust for the police since he made the connection of the cop (Harry) in the beginning to Robber Harry later on. But still..
That brings me to another point that may have been discussed earlier in the thread...when Kevin and Marley are having their talk in the church, why is Marley such a dick to Kevin? Marley clearly knows why Kevin always acts so afraid of him...he even says specifically that he knows there are lots of rumors around about him, but that none of them are true. Also, Kevin is 8, so kids believe shite like that, so you can't be mad at him for believing that shite. So anyway, Marley explains his situation with his son and why he's afraid to call him, and Kevin makes the analogy that he shouldn't be scared to call his son because he's always been scared of the basement, but one day he confronted that fear and now it's not so bad and he realized that he's been worrying about it this whole time for nothing. And what does that a-hole Marley say to him in response..? "What's your point?" Um, a-hole...his point is very clearly that you're worrying and being afraid to call your son and you should stop being such a fricking pussy about it and pick up the goddamn telephone.
Also, if anybody wants to watch the movie, or needs it for some analysis, here it is. And it loads pretty fast too, so you can let it sit for a couple of minutes and then go to any point in the movie for reference.
Also, at the end when the family gets back and Kevin tells them he went shopping, it always pisses me off that Buzz is like "Shopping..? He doesn't know how to tie his shoe, and he went shopping?" He's 8 years old, Buzz...I'm sure he's been able to tie his shoe for about 5 years now, dick.

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure you made almost the exact same post on like page 4.
MATERIAL RECYCLER!!!!
ETA: I stand corrected, it was Maximus on page 11.

How stupid is that old man? He tells Kevin he is afraid to call his son for fear that his son will reject him. Then Kevin gives him a 5 minute speech about conquering the fear of his basement and the old frick replies, "Whats your point?" What the frick do you think his point is, shovel hands?
When this got it's 2013 bump I read through it and thought I saw something similar
