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

I agree, she also displays this completely self absorbed lack of lack of reality in 2:LINY at the baggage claim. She just hands off Kevin's bag and says all nonchalant like "Kevin's not here" It's not until Mr. McAllister asks her that she all the sudden cares that he's gone. Recent update: at the police station she says she last saw Kevin at curbside check-in. What? you last saw your kid on the street at the airport and thought that was enough? WTF? Mr. McAllister is all like, um no bitch I saw him at the gate cause I was paying attention to our 10 year old at one of the most busy airports in the world, on one of the most busy travel days of the year. She was all like, oh yeah me too
Don't sell Mr. McCallister short on this. He may have a bit more sense than his wife and not be as self absorbed, but he clearly doesn't care for Kevin all that much and treats him missing as a mere slight nuisance. He's pretty damn calm and collected for his kid being missing both times, to where we at least some emotion from the mother. Mr McCallister just doesn't give a shite, and is simply pissed that Kevin is making him miss his tee times.
And you know who definitely doesn't have an excuse: the siblings and cousins. Surely one person was seated within sight of where Kevin should be seated, and more likely was directly next to him. I think they are actively rooting for him to get brutally injured and only see Kevin as a person they can beat up on. If the world can beat up on or preferably kill Kevin, then they're pumped up for it.

Nope.....but I have always wanted to ever since I saw this movie the first time.
I remember when I was a kid begging my parents to let us stay in the Plaza. We just walked through it instead, which was absolute nostalgia for me at the time.

I've been to NYC once in my life....3 years ago. I stayed at a Double Tree in Times Square and walked to the Apple Store & FAO Schwarz right by Central Park. I looked up and saw The Plaza across the street. I'm kicking myself for not at least walking through the lobby.

watching HA2:
How do Marv and Harry just underestimate kevin again when he escapes in the park? "we just told him our entire plan to knock off a toy store tonight and he just got away. Oh well frick it, kids are scared of park so we're good!"
That park probably has cops everywhere, he'd only have to bump into 1 and tell him what's going down.

Central Park at night (and NYC in general) pre-Giuliani was a shithole. No way Kevin would've gotten out of the park alive back then.

there was still plenty of daylight left when they just said "oh well frick it"

Nope. Our room was on the 8th floor facing 5th Avenue and had two beds.

From the brick scene on AMC story notes:
We had a doctor examine the real life injuries from bricks thrown at the head from the roof. At best, brain damage. At worst, death.
Or something along those lines ha. But nah, marv takes abt 4 of them like they're balloons and is good to go in no time.

Was Central Park really that dangerous back then? I've been more recently even in the evening and it didn't seem too bad. Of course I wasn't too far inside of it.

That's why I love these movies.

The pidgeon lady gave Harry like 5 minutes to shoot her before she threw the seeds at them. She wanted to die

I recorded many songs from MTV on that thing.

The park is fine now, but 20-25 years ago was during the height of the crack era (plus NYC's murder rate then was quadruple today's numbers), so it wasn't exactly the best place for Kevin (a 10 year old kid from out-of-town) to wander around at night.

And that's probably the least of what hit Marv in the head in that movie. He gets a 50 pound bag of concrete thrown onto his head from 4 stories above, and then gets hit right in the face with 100 pound steel bar, then that bar is thrown onto him from 3 stories above, which would have for sure either smash his head in completely to where his brains would be all over the walls or collapsed his ribcage, heart, and lungs.

I loved it and was incredibly disappointed with it at the same time. No where near as good as the movie's version.
