Nice
Hi
Ime fan!!!
Ily
I may or may not check it out.
Fun fact: In Germany this movie is called "nicht schon wieder allein zu haus" which means "not home alone again" which pretty much sums up how everyone is feeling about this movie
Home alone is called 'mom i missed the plane' in French 😅 the way you get spoiled before even having a chance to watch the movie 😂
Lmaooo
Alien zoo house lol sorry
Speaking of Germany the actor who plays max also plays Yorkie in jojo rabbit
@@lunastoonas7101 I thought I recognized him
There was absolutely no need for this movie to exist. No. Need.
Indeed, apart from the inevitable allure of money, naturally!
There was no need for anything after 2
of course there is, the executives need to fatten up their wallets 🤑
Yup
@@darth-severus facts
the reason this failed was because Max was too hateable and the "robbers" were to likeable. In the first two movies, Kevin was nice and only fought back if he was provoked. The robbers in the first two were also very clearly evil, which made it enjoyable to watch them get tortured by Kevin's traps. In this version, Max is a b*tch who does whatever he wants with no punishment, while the robbers are a couple who want to get a doll back because they need it since it's worth a lot of money and they're about to lose their house. They're also a lot more redeemable then Harry and Marv, which makes you feel bad for them when they go through the traps.
Yeah, also Harry and Marv were idiots who kept going back into the stinking boobey trapped house. I think the audience was yelling at them the whole time to just give it up and go home. They were also vengeful. Harry wanted to torture Kevin for all the pain he caused him, for a house he had no right to break into. In the second one they were also vengeful. They kidnapped Kevin and were going to throw him on ice to drown.
Thank you for saving me from this trash videos explanation.
@@Royed I love that you clearly hate the channel since you're calling it trash while supposedly not having watched it, yet you still clicked on it and went to the comments. Maybe the word "trash" should be reserved for how you reference your use of free time.
The home alone 1 and 2 were literally all we needed, literally never get old
My Favorite Scene Is Kevin Asking Trump Direction.
The third is still good!
1 & 2 were on top of a mountain. 3 fell off the mountain onto a cliff. After that the franchise fell off the cliff and into Hell.
@@abdurehmanmalik8974 perfectly said man
@@ApocalypseMaxx Your taste on movies horrifies me 😔
This is the movie that no-one asked for. They will never ever ever touch the OG home alone with Maculey Culken
tf you mean touch? they will never breath near the OG home alone
we had Home alone 1 and 2
Don’t you mean Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin?
At least we got Kieran Culkin and Succession
amen
It’s not as if “this generation” needs a remake of home alone. Literally everyone has seen it.
for real, next I bet they’ll remake Harry Potter as if it wasn’t one of the most popular franchises
@@flowersforyouu Nah, that one is getting a sequel.
What about gen alpha they probably have not seen it
@@rift8661 we’ll show it to them. No more of this half thrown together new crap
@@rift8661 do you really think millenial/gen Z parents will CHOOSE to play this instead of the original?
I think the biggest downfall of the movie was how unimportant the family conflict seemed, the original fight between Max and his mother was completely forced and unnatural, I didn't even realize it was a fight until after the scene. Unlike the original movie where I actually felt like Kevin didn't want to see his family again I always felt like Max and his family never had the "falling out" they needed for the movie to really work.
*“How do you get a castle in this economy??”*
Me: “And how do you have only *one* bathroom??”
Are you kidding me? The entire plot of this movie is that two people can't just knock on the door and say, "Hey kid, did you steal my doll?" They're not even villains, they're just two people who want their property back and don't know how to communicate!
Maybe that's why he sucks at his job, and is not like the wife is smarter than a potato
@@TheLakabanzaichrg right? Miss girl doesn't even know "smart" words💀
They're stupid people with a big, fancy house....
Yeah instead of going to the house and saying kid can I have my doll back he decides to commit a crime by breaking into our house which if he got caught and trialled I don’t think the judge would believe him oh yeah so I had an open house and this kid came and stole my doll so I broke into his house
The old home alone movies made sense! Not this one
Honestly this movies biggest sin is giving the criminals a reason to go into the house other than to just rob the house
The most unrealistic thing about this movie is that they were able to stretch that $200,000 so far.
Right why do they need a sympathetic back story. And why did they make the kid unlikeable. Who ever wrote this clearly hates this franchise
the actual biggest sin is the fact this movie exists
@@AirQuotesI think it's a result of people lately making semi-serious jokes about how Kevin is the devil who tortures criminals for his own satisfaction instead of calling the police if he's so concerned about his house and his own safety. So the movie flips who is truly insane here, maybe.
And also I read somewhere that this movie might be criticizing Castle Doctrine and rich people mentality. But I think they give too much credit to this movie.
@@miss_conduct. Kevin already was kind of insane. He got bullied by everyone tho.
‘Jam and Peff… am I dying?’ 😂 I haven’t laughed that hard in a while.
Loll same
the thing that made this movie saddening was how realistic it is. The couple's emotions were just so realistic and the victims here were the couple, really.
and the traps were just really painful to watch, especially the "house lock trap" where the husband's touches the button and there's a needle that goes inside of his finger, i cried at that part honestly.
In the original/2 the robbers were actually trying to rob him, and everytime they lost they would keep trying, they even almost hurt Kevin.
But in this season the couple being the victims and it was just sad knowing how it was just an misunderstanding and they were trying to get back what was there's.
And in the end im pretty sure they praised max for "saving the doll"
honestly the villain character is Max
Home Alone 7: The kid breaks into the robber’s house
I would watch that
Tbh that would be hilarious
That's not fair, this _could_ work
You know this will happen
Home Alone 8: The kid bombs Cuba
Nothing can or has ever come close to the first Home Alone.
Precisely, they're just trying to milk more money out of it!
Home Alone 2?
@@junglezone7323 It’s good but the original is better
My girlfriend prefers the sequel
Honestly I enjoyed the 3 way more then I thought… it’s just a nice little thing for kid nerds!
This movie makes you hate the kid and feel bad for the burglars, which is the complete opposite of how the premise of a Home Alone movie is supposed to be
“Jam and Peff? JAM and PEFF??? AM I DYING????” 😂😂😂😂 Oh my goodness, I almost fell out of my chair laughing.
Funny thing is she is from the office and Jim and Pam were one of the characters i wonder if it was a joke lol
When will these companies learn that milking a franchise to death will eventually tarnish and destroy a franchise’s legacy.
I wish they learned.
every comment section. EVERY COMMENT SECTION
Indeed, they only care about making money out of a thirty year old movie franchise!
Take my money
@@syastar not every, he’s only on mainstream RUclipsrs channels. I rarely see his comments
We need kevin as an elder defending his home against youngsters. We could even get the original actor.
Damn kids! Get off my lawn!
Love the idea!
OMG, yes!
Nah he doesn't need the money so shouldn't debase himself.
preferably on a halloween night
One of the things I love about your videos, is you'll have moments I see coming like the parental lock on your moms computer joke. But the way you'll do it, and the narrations you use are always perfect.
And the animations, those are good too.
I think there are 3 things that really gripe me about this movie and makes it weird
1. You feel sympathy for the 2 burglars then for the kid protecting his house
2. That they get Buzz back for this movie for a Cameo (in a year full of cameos) and mention Kevin as well making it in the same universe (and then the likes if his character feels odd now cause of his charges and turning himself in to the police in real life after this movie came out)
3. The mom of the kid is an Irish Comedian but I have no clue why they make her do some weird American/ British accent (this is a little nitpick of my own)
Aisling Bea, the Irish actor has LOTS of actions and she didn't mind. The people that complained about it were on Twitter.
@@MrOliverK OK that she didn't mind but she is so funny and so talented that she deserved to be in a movie that was better than this one.
@@robertawalsh2995 tbh nobody deserves to be casted in this movie. At least it wasn't a fanmovie made by some 12 year old on Plotagon and GoAnimate.
„Oh no! She got shark strength!“ I swear this was the line that both send me flying but also just proved me that Kids shows and movies just have the most terrible acting and voice lines ever…
@@jasmine-------------1235 wtf
To this day I’m still laughing at the line and trying to figure out who in their right mind actually says that. Wtf is shark strength 🤣?
@@reannagordon LOL same
Most of the crap fed to kids today are just shit, the bad acting isn’t even the main problem XD
Bruh have you actually seen good kids movies
"Oh no! She's got shark strength!" is not something I ever expected to hear.
Right🤣 I was like “wha-“ ?
That sentence was said the first time in the history of English in that movie
🤣🤣
That movie was so cringe😂
8:00 it is actually kind of hilarious becuse it makes it sound like they know the movie they are making is terrible
Can we just leave Kevin alone and forget that there ever was Home alone movies after the first two? Like, the first two movies are just actual masterpieces. It's funny, it has a lesson and they had really emotional scenes and they are juts all in all Christmas. The other ones don't exist to me.
I love how at one point they even refence remakes of movies saying "they are never as good as the original" and they sure lived up to that line with this movie.
Honestly I think that was intentional, it's too good not to be
My dad said the same thing when we were watching it lol
@@nightwatch3889 duh
Just like that one transformer’s movie that had that old guy mention that too
I thought the same exact thing when that line came up smh lol
It sucks that they wasted this kid on this movie. He stole the show in JoJo Rabbit what a waste of his talent
13:52-11:28 can somebody tell me the name of the damn song PLEASE

@@supremechadmaster2344 it's from Kirby! It's titled Green Greens Theme on Spotify
12:07 I love that old Home Alone Scene. 😂😂😂
Dude if you think this is bad, you should watch the Peacock original movie “Alone for Christmas.” It’s basically Home Alone but the kid is replaced by a dog.
Also, that was Erin, not Pam.
Nothing beats the original Kevin. There is no Christmas without him. Remakes will never work
EXACTLY I bet an average fan could make a better one then these new ones
The 3rd Home Alone movie is actually kinda good... unpopular opinion?? 😅😅😅
@@16taysia well if that's your opinion I respect that :) every new one just gets worse and worse
@@tails_the_god thanks for respecting my opinion, that's very nice of you
@@16taysia :) yeah your very welcome
Y'know the worst part of this movie?
This could've been resolved with one conversation with Mom that her son stole the doll.
Not even sure why they thought not Kevin stole it anyway. He kept on looking at the dude like he was a creepy weirdo for having dolls in the first place.
There were only two good home alone movies!
They should do another one, but with the original cast. Like Buzz, Kevin and all the other kids (I know there were loads), have their own kids and the parents of the old movie are now grandparents or whatever. The fact that they were so good was the fact that the people who wanted to break in were criminals and the kid had to defend the house, and himself.
Kevin's dad died
You realise that the charisma of the wet bandits contributed so much to how well it was received. Being cartoon villains and them being so energetic/comical even when falling for the most random traps
It feels like even the people who made this movie didn’t want it to exist
It was literally made as a joke on saturday night live.
They then proceed to find a way to make it a reality. It was intentionaly bad XDXD
@@smirkyshadow4152 i feel like this is a pretty big investment for a petty joke
@@El-de6nj It was, they literally went to the creator and asked can we make an intentionally bad home alone reboot, the creator responded how so, they said by making the robbers the good guys and the kid the bad guy, the creator said something along the lines of you know what go ahead.

First Home Alone: kid defends house from burglars
New Home Alone: couple trying to steal doll from Fat, discount Harry Potter
“Jam and peff?AM I DYING?” - Alex meyers
Kevin is not a piece of garbage. Hes a kid just trying to survive in a big house with people like Buzz
Yeah I found him quite sympathetic. He’s left out of the family movie time, he’s been called incompetent by most of his family, and his favourite pizza is taken. His actions with his family are reactionary. Max is just rude from the start and you don’t have sympathy for him
He is in the wrong at first, but sympathetic.
@@KeybladeMasterAndy Hes a child. Children say hateful things all the time when they dont get their way
Kevin is both spoiled and helpless at the start of the film, neither of which is his fault. He's sympathetic but also has a lot of growing to do, which is delivered by the end of the film.
agreed but this kid just sucked.
Fun fact: There was a deleted scene in the original movie that had Harry talking to Marv his tragic own backstory and why he's robbing to begin with. But it was cut because they knew you would sympathize with them instead or rooting for Kevin and would make Kevin more like the villain when he causes the traps.
But here, I guess they ran out of ideas and just re-used something that would've made the original not good and there was a reason WHY it wasn't in the original. I'm tired of seeing Disney use the sympathetic villain move because it's forced and boring. This was one of the worst remakes/sequels I have seen in recent years. And now Disney Plus is remaking Cheaper By the Dozen Father of the Bride again, along with 3 Men & A Baby, and Night At The Museum. It seems obvious Disney will never learn their lesson.
They need to not touch cheaper by the dozen, that's a classic.
Disney needs to get lost, they better not ruin cheaper by the dozen, they made their own movies stupid don't touch 20th century fox studio classics!!
I swear they need to open their eyes no one wants this! And the movies there remaking are still watched today, they need to stop
Fun fact: Cheaper by the dozen and Father of the Bride are already remakes of remakes. Disney is being redundant at this point.
Everyone knows they have been since they started making these remakes
The sad thing is Disney fans will defend every little turd they squeeze out.
13:01 Netflix: you know who we should do a show about?
Watching Jeff and Pam makes miss the wet bandits even more
“She’s got shark strength D,:” is such a funny fucking line that it has to be a wink to the audience about how phones in the movie is.
Hey did autocorrect get you? "How phones in the movie is." ? Did you mean phony?
@@Zeclag
Probably meant "Phoned in", as in the actors put the least amount of effort into their performances since they were getting the paycheck either way.
@@wakkaseta8351 ah yes that also makes sense. Thank you
Pitch idea for a new Home Alone movie: a single dad sends his kids off to summer camp and then must defend his house from a gang of 8-year old buglers trying to steal all his candy.
Thats actually good!
Alone at Home
@@mrpedrobraga 😳
Instead of it being the POV of the kids breaking into an abandoned house like in horror movies, it can be from the POV of a squatter. They're trying to hide, afraid that these kids might hurt them or call the cops but the kids are determined to find them so they must protect themselves. A mix of Home Alone & Don't Breath lol.
Hell yea

"We go now while they're not home and get our gallbladder" - auto-generated closed captioning 2021
My family wanted to watch this, so I managed to stay awake for the first ten minutes… and then slept the whole way through
I did like the “McAllister Home Security” sign out the front of the house. Seems like Kevin capitalised on his... “talents”
And it seems that some of his family is still annoyed at him
I can't believe Buzz is a fucking cop
yea i saw that too, he really had a career after the first movie
Good for him 👏
His “talents” of being jigsaw
Making the victims nice and the protagonist was a horrible move.
I didn't even finish the movie because it was setup up so poorly. I forgave the dumbness of the others because watching bad guys get roughed up was dumb fun. But having it happen to nice people sucks the joy out of it.
Why were you watching it at all? Why do people encourage studios to make these horrible movies then complain about them?
@@radhiadeedou8286 Cuz I like home alone and not every remake is awful.
The remake of Jungle book was amazing.
I tried. I tried to give it a chance. But the last 3/4 of it was just me waiting for it to end
It seems to be a movie troupe these days to make the bad guys sympathetic and most of the time it doesn't work.
Having it happen to “nice” people was even funnier and
6:32 Gotta love the Joe Mama part
Eh... It's kinda cringe that bit...
Nah its cringe
Imagine hiring someone who's only specialty is migrating a MySQL database. Also, why the hell would they go to TOKYO of all places for Christmas? What are they going to do? Eat some KFC and stay in a hotel?
Christmas is like valentine's day here, except with more KFC. Sure, there are lights, but it's not at all the same.
Also, if they are financially struggling, a family trip to Tokyo seems really stupid.
Fun continuity:
- Kevin grew up to make his own security company
- Max’s house has a McCalistor security system
- Buzz became a cop
- Kevin calls the police department every year to play a prank on Buzz, saying a kid was left home alone
- so this is why the cops never come to help Max. Buzz tells the department that it’s just some prank his brother is playing
You mean Buzz tells the department?
That's pretty nice. One of the few bright spots in this flick I guess....
That's kinda the highlight of the movie.
Only makes you wish they made a film about Kevin as an adult instead. Maybe make him the villain too like some people wanted a John Wick style movie with him saving his kids or something lol
This was honestly the best part of the movie for me, the Easter eggs to the original. I can’t decide if the worst part was making the “home invaders” the main characters and good people who were being stupid, or the fact that the nephew was shown being a klepto half way in, so we knew that he had the doll, not Max, making the whole second half of the film even more ridiculous because if they hadn’t jumped to conclusions and just told their family what they were looking for, nothing would have even happened with Max!
The original Home alone has so much heart, makes parents feel things. This feels like a cheap knockoff.
Home alone. But the wish app.
That's because it is a cheap knockoff
It is what it is. They really dont know how else to capitalize on nostalgia anymore
@Juragan Mudawhy
I feel bad for the kid in an interview saying he’s happy he’s going to be in people’s Christmases for a thousands of years-
Here’s what you learn from this movie
1. Do not sleep in cars
2. Do not be poor
3. Do not trust your four year old nephew
4. Do not scream out the door code and your full name to complete strangers
5. All you must do to live a happy life is sell a terrifying doll
"It's a kid's movie" is a bad excuse for bad movies.
Im spitting hairs, but This is more of a family movie
Facts
how to train your dragon or spirit are great examples of great kids movies
applies to horror movies because half of them throw jump scares and use that as an excuse to not have a proper plot
Bad kids movies are bad to adults but still good to kids
"Jam and Peff?! Am I dying?!" KILLED ME
killed alex too aparently 🤣
10:42 Dude, earlier in the movie, there was a scene where there was like 5 different types of milk in the fridge
"when I was 10 my parents had the same thing but trust me I found out real quick how to bypass that... You know what forget it"
Had me laughing.
Tho OG home alone will forever be the best GET REKT
For sure! What do you think bout the second though??? I loved the first and second
Agree’d
This movie is a big insult to the original Home Alone you can’t even compare the two. There is no way on this earth that anybody can actually like this movie
The second was better and everyone knows it even if they won’t admit it
Yeah no one can surpass McCauley Culkin
You went surprisingly easy on this movie. Max is WAY worse than Kevin. He doesn't want to spend ONE NIGHT with his cousins in his gigantic castle of a home for...reasons. The entire premise is a mess because it's legitimately fucked up seeing this family TRYING TO GET THEIR PROPERTY BACK and be tormented like this lol
Not to mention that Kevin not wanting to be around his family actually makes sense.
Exactly!
@@yikesgina but in this movie its just:
"Hey mom!"
"Max I'm on the phone"
"Me hate family now"
The Kevin and his family did have some conflict, concerning that they hate him and he being a little brat ( it's fine because he's 8), but he did regret his decision to wish everyone away, showing that he still loves his family (even if they are jerks). BUT in this movie..... nothing
@@nathanjereb9944 perfect
He did say “I can’t wait to go home and share one toilet with 9 blooming cousins”. I’m not sure if that castle somehow only has 1 bathroom or if for some reason he and 9 cousins all have to share the same one. Maybe he meant they’d all be sharing one in Tokyo. But It’d be a pretty undesirable bathroom situation either way.
4:34 unfortunately she's technically right.
"Jam and peff, Jam and Peff!?" "Am i dying?"
Me: I don't know about you but i sure am
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Everyone hates how they made the burgerlers sympathetic but why is no one talking about how max is just the absolute worst to his family when there just a standard family. I mean his mom is literally just on a phone call and he's yelling at her and then is frustrated that he won't drop everything to talk to him.
Yeah, plus she's on the phone so that she can be in the same plane as her kids. It's not like she's ignoring him to gossip with her friends or some bs that would be understandably frustrating
I mean you would do the same if you entire family fucking ignores you it just alone
Ya and I’m the og home alone movies we understand Kevin wants attention and is being treated badly mostly cause the parients have so many people to take care of but in this case max treats his family horrible
@@Colelover117 so this max kid is a absolute dipshit and is a number one a-hole? Because in the first two movies, Kevin is completely opposite to this kid,(except that he is a brat too)
But still feels kinda lonely, but from what I saw in this movie's clips, this kid is the worst child ever. And no hate to the child actor though.
@@ntb3210 Nah I haven't
Jesus Christ EVERYONE in the movie is absolutely unlikeable
Bro you don’t feel sympathy or the kid cause he’s spoiled
Nilered is in the airport scene
Que porra é essa
I respect your opinion.
except for the ACTUAL BUGLUARS
12:53 did you forget the christmas store they wanted to rob. which was the reason Kevin defended himself? lo, you need to rewatch the originals really, because there's a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding.
How to make an Alex Meyers thumbnail:
1. Quirky (copy and pasted) drawing
2. Spell what… as wut… to be extra quirky
3. Super quirky image from movie
This movie sucked, that's obvious, but that one joke where one of the characters said "they need to stop remaking the classics" actually made me laugh.
That just infuriates me more, because that means they're either self-aware but doing a cash grab anyway, or they're not aware enough and they're just trying to use a meme
It's infuriating if you think about it, they're like "if we're self aware then it's ok that we made this turd"
Oh self aware about how remakes should stop being made in a remake/reboot how original. I certainly didn't see that kind of joke before....
Every second of the movie after that line was me waiting for the agonizing pain to end.
Yeah this movie was dumb…
Did anybody else root when the "parents" got hurt.... This truly was a horrible movie!
Me too, the couple are the true heroes, and the bratty kid the Villain!
OH NOOOOOO!!! Most people agree that my vids are the worst on RUclips. I agree to disagree. Please agree to disagree with the haters, dear pu4
You know? I never cared about any home alone movie but this movie reminded me of something that is kind of like the Tom and Jerry formula, basically, there's a character that is trying to somehow get/catch/thwart another character, but as they try to do so they end up getting hurt in many comical ways. The point is, the key factor anyone who's attempting to create this kind of formula should always have present as their main priority when writing the sequence is that YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE THE AUDIENCE CARE OR ROOT FOR THE ONE GETTING HURT, on the contrary, YOU MUST WANT TO HAVE THE AUDIENCE HOPE FOR THAT PERSON'S FAILURE. Tho most common plot is that the character getting hurt is usually trying to eat the other character, like Tom and Jerry, Road Runner and Sylvester.
So yeah, the people who made these movies aren't good writers
I just discovered you with this video. Your animation is just so funny and hilarious! Gonna watch another video to decide if I must subscribe.
Wait did they have a sign out front saying their house is protected by "McAllister Security?"
So what, did Kevin start a security firm based around installing death traps?
I wish they were just actual burglars lol. To see good people being tortured isn’t as hilarious and satisfying,
The original movie was already...dicey...(Home Alone 3, though definitely not the "best" of them, is definitely the most "morally solid"), so why did they try to make them sympathetic...? Honestly? Mis-positioned cast members. Ellie Kemper and Rob Delaney as morally irredeemable heels was NEVER going to work. Swap Aisling Bea and Tim Simons (how is "The Guy Who Played Jonah Ryan" in a Home Alone movie and NOT one of the villains?) (now the thieves) with Rob Delaney and Ellie Kemper (now the successful married couple that the thieves resent) and you're MOST of the way there to fixing the movie.

Thank you for saving me from that catastrophe. Also, you’re videos are very entertaining. Thank you for existing 😁😆
Sorry but Kevin was the victim in those first 2 movies. His entire family treated him like crap, the whole pizza thing was an issue because they HAD bought him cheese pizza but his a-hole brother ate it. If you look at the way his family looks and treats him you'll see it wasn't entirely his fault. Lol He also has some of the dumbest parents ever.
A lot say that Kevin is a brat and they’re pretty right but he’s 8 or so. So, cut him some slack. And while Buzz was a doof in the beginning of both HA movies he did have a good ending to both movies.
Don't forget that when Fuller has Pepsi, he always wets the bed.
Yep. That was the 90s. Kids were taken care of but the social aspect of their lives was left to them. We still had to go to school if we were ruthlessly bullied and had to either learn to deal with it or stand up for ourselves. And while that was an absolute nightmare I can say it did make us stronger and built character. Sadly the issue with bullies now is there is no escape from them thanks to cell phones, cameras and social media. Ugh. I'm so happy I was born in 87 and got to experience a childhood that was not overran with technology but also enjoyed the golden age of the internet with AOL, MySpace and early RUclips. I just wish we could get to a point where kids can be kids again. Where they can go outside qnd explore without people freaking out about them roaming around like a pack of wolves. And trick or treating actually begins when it's dark out and existed only in neighborhoods and not parking lots/malls. Le sigh. It's why I wanna move out to the country anymore. That way I can.let my son go play outside and not have to worry he was hit by a car or that I will have the police visiting because he is in the fenced in backyard by himself. Same wirh parents. They need time to be themselves and away from their kids. Now you are supposed to be amazing at work and also a paranoid helicopter parent that should be giving their child non-stop attention while also being a playmate to them. It's insane.
@@dorianalexander2730 Mucho texto
@@dorianalexander2730 hey person born here in 91, married to a person born in 90. If your parent wasn't a helicopter parent, that's because they were naive and never went through any real stuff.
My parents were super old school parents, we had to do chores, couldn't hang out with people unless they met their parents, and the only way we got to play outside is if all the neighbors were hanging outside too. We were not actually raised by religious people, but we did ended up living next to our parents family friends.
And as far as kids being kids again. There are tons of stories everywhere about how kids got murdered, tortured, overworked (before they were basic labor laws preventing that), and just went missing/we're never seen again a hundred years back.
We just have Amber alert systems and everything now to be a constant reminder of the fact that if you're having kids then you're selfish or naive. Because this is not and never has been a world for children. If you're a kid you have no rights, you make no decisions for yourself, you have no experience-(which everyone either uses to manipulate or belittle you), you have no freedom, you get what you get as far as quality of parents/family/school systems/living situations/religions, everybody wants to either put you down to make themselves feel better -OR to do some horrible illegal stuff to you, because the trauma will shut off the language center in your developing brain, and they will most likely get away with horrible things that will negatively affect the rest of your life. People wonder why kids bully other kids, it's because those kids who get bullied and those kids who become bullies / none of them have it easy. Parents don't know how to freaking deal with it either, it's a mess that they made because they were made to be messes too.
Being a kid sucks, being a kid is overrated, being adult is so much better. And if you say otherwise, then it's most likely that you were either extremely privileged or extremely forgetful.
There is no such thing as a kid being getting to be a kid.
Unless they're dead so they don't know what real living feels like.
Real living is getting to make your own decisions. Really living means surviving long enough to be an adult. Though if you're really messed up as a kid, and if you're really not born in the right conditions.... Then you're definitely handicapped as an adult. So yeah, next time you hear an Amber alert I hope you think of this, and your lack of knowledge in history for people, balming everything on "now a days" because of some privilege you have. Or it's worse, you're not privileged, you just lack critical thinking, and because you heard ignorance enough, been to enough adults pity parties, you think now it's worse than when you were a kid.
The original actor had a certain charm to his sarcasm. This kid does not. Just seems like a child James Corden.
Which is a shame because the kid actually has acting chops, playing the mc in Jojo Rabbit. But an actor's usually only as good as their script & direction
@@tarotsushima3332 yeah true. Kid was great in Jojo Rabbit
@@thefirely1439 dude thats cruel to the kid, he shouldnt be compared to james corden
@@MagnusTNT yeah that was kinda the point. Like i said he was pretty good in Jojo rabbit but was very very meh.
The Wet Bandits made B&E fun
9:02 FF9's Tantalus Brothers theme? Aw, yes! (Surprised I remembered that--but that music just punched me in the nostalgia) 🤣
Just started watching your videos and there funny as hell yo keep it up man I’ve been watching a lot of RUclips because I’m in a homeless shelter and this is the only thing to watch and hilarious stuff keep it up man
Oh boy! I Got some good channels for you
Home Alone 3 is actually a bit of a hidden gem in the sequels. I'd recommend giving it a shot. It's a different kid and different family, but the kid actually calls the police multiple times, and only takes matters into his own hands when he gets accused of lying to the police. Twice. And honestly, the villains themselves are really cool. It's not just some duo of robbers who are just a pair of cartoon idiots, it's a team of four international criminals, bringing the stakes up hilariously high. It's by no means as good as the original, at least when it comes to the big emotional mother-son moment at the end, but it's a far cry above the fourth and beyond.
Plus, Scarlett Johansson is in it when she was like, what, 15? Always fun seeing a fetus version of a Hollywood favorite.
I used to watch Home Alone 3 all the time as a kid and when I found out that the sister was Scarlett Johansson. I freaked the hell out
I used to like that movie!
Yeah home alone 3 doesnt deserve the bad rep it gets. It has a different kid and almost a different plot and also a wholesome storyline with the old neighbour lady. I loved it as a kid, along with the originals.
@@coolhellu I liked how the old lady said “I was there when Hoover was president” lol. The reason fans gave it bad rep was because home alone 1 and 2 set their expectations really high.
I’m glad, I’m not the only one who enjoyed home alone 3!
Cruella, Maleficent, Joker, this movie... Why does EVERY villain have to have a sympathetic backstory now?!
Right! Like they always wanna have an excuse for bad and evil behavior. Makes me think that they’re doing this for themselves. That they wanna have sympathy for theme selves idk
Cruella was good tho
Lol I get your point but are you saying Kevin from hom alone was a villain?
Lol haven't seen the movie but wtf happened?
Joker was a masterpiece imo
The hilarious bit always gets me in these videos, the tone shift and golem esk voice gets me a good giggle on a bad day!
"Hehe HiLaRiOuS"
Pam has nerves of steel saying "Oh, sweetie, come here" when Max is holding her at gunpoint.
The exclamation of "Am I Dying?" after having a verbal stroke was hilarious and my favorite part
I searched for this comment just to say…. Same 😂
@@queenpotathoe2154 Yeah, same.
SAME😂😂😂😂
The least believable thing in this movie is that the castle they are living in has 1 bathroom
Well said
same thin i was wondering
My friend is a teacher and one of her classes when it was in December and was allowed to show Home Alone
She told me some of the students preferred to see this version rather than the original first one
As you can imagine she was surprised by their lack of taste and quality
Alex, with all the (and your) videos I've watched over the years, never have I been recommended such a mountain of dish soap, binging Harry Hairdo of all things. Are you secretly scrubbing oily ducks?? 🤔
I feel bad for this kid imagine getting a huge break in a movie a classic at that but then you realize nobody wanted a remake and no matter if you were a A grade actor nobody’s gonna like you he’s not gonna get any calls back.
To be fair, he already was in Jojo Rabbit, and he was super memorable in that movie. I'm sure he'll get plenty more oportunities.
He was really good in Jojo Rabbit, so there's a chance he will get call backs anyway
probably no one will remember this movie in years, he will be okay
This was a sucky movie to appear in, but he was also in movies like Jojo rabbit, and did fine there, so this isn’t his only acting credit. Course it’s debatable any kid would willingly want to join so many acting projects if their parents didn’t always call the shots
I think people forget that a lot of directors understand that the quality of movies and TV shows is not always consistent with the quality of the actors. You can tell that this movie sucks because of the writing and not because of the actors, they’re just doing their job.
The fact that Max and his mom seemed to be the only one’s of their family with a British accent 😂🤔
Aisling Bea (the mother) is Irish anyway. This whole movie makes no sense.
In the original some of the kids spoke French and no English. I thought that was weird, even if their did live in France, they were staying with American relatives who never spoke French in the film.
@@teresasevy1563 If I'm not mistaken they didn't speak French fluently, they studied a little because Paris is where they were going for Christmas.
Some of the other kids did. American dad, British mum, lived in UK from wedding until fairly recently so all kids grew up there, and I’m thinking too much about a Disney+ movie.
Gotta be uber inclusive
There’s one thing Alex And I have in common. We both like to watch shows that’s for half of our age 😂
I know it's super small in this, but the Tim Allen grunt is so timeless, I crack up every time I hear it, I love it 😁😁😂
Kevin’s character: maybe psychotic but uses his traps to stop to criminals
Maxes character: little greedy troll who beets up a couple
I'd say Kevin is more territorial. After all, he's an eight-year-old kid defending himself from two dangerous criminals. You're right about Max though. That church scene where he thinks himself a child in need. I could punch him.
Moral of the story. Don’t make the punching bag “villain” characters relatable and and completely in the right. Also, don’t be the exec doing the “hello fellow youths” meme all movie
Or just don’t make pinching bags because, whether it’s justified or not, it’s never really funny.
@@danielhart7435 Home Alone, and certain scenes in Shrek
@@bayardkyyako7427 Well than “relatable” characters in the right should also be punching bags
@@danielhart7435 You can do it its certainly not impossible
Completely in the right? You talking about the robbers…??? Who broke into a house????
“Jam and peff”still has me in stitches, lol!!!
I thought it was just funny how the most replayed part was right after he talked about the sponsor.
3:41 That “protected by Mccallister home security” sign made me think how hilarious it would have been to see the traps integrated from the first movie into a home security system that Kevin apparently runs. Like if someone just opened the door without putting in the alarm code would they get shot with a BB gun or something?
I would watch the heck out of a whole movie about that, followed by a sequel with Kevin giving up on home security and turning into Jigsaw.
No if they don’t put in the code the claymore under the doormat activates
It would be cool if Kevin went into the home security business, and fitting.
@@coolnerdlll6053 ngl I think the kid in this movie was jigsaw, not kevin mccallister
That'd be great 😂😂😂
Honestly they should’ve leaned into a dark comedy where the kid is explicitly the villain and does everything completely maliciously and there is no element of self defense. It’s almost like a Christmas-themed Saw movie where the enemy is a kid
Id absolutely watch that
Yeah, why do I want that more than another reboot of home alone?
That’s true
The movie you're describing is spiral
you should watch better watch out similar to what your saying
That Tim-The-Tool-Man-Taylor grunt slapped me right in the face. Well placed, old chap.
The purge with Kevin defending his home could make for a great take on the two movies lol
Max said he has to share one toilet with nine rotten cousins, but he lives in a freaking mansion with three levels on it. There has to be at least four or five bathrooms in that house. The whole family is spoiled rotten and a family who can own that house, a BMW and buy all of their groceries in bulk should have more than one bathroom in the house.
When he took that toy as if he wasn’t gonna have like 50 under the tree made me so annoywd
The economy and stuff. They all have to use the community crapper which is a hole in the basement where they buried the bodies of the talent.
He's spoiled rich kid.
One thing I never noticed in the promos. I actually thought this was like HA4 where the MC was also rich I think? But Kevin's family always had the underlying assertions the family was rich since the trip was on Peter's dime. A flight for 15 to Paris with him, his wife, brother and wife flying first class. A fairly decent house. Just flinging cash for pizza for 15.
I think they just took these assertions and ran with it in the movie. The McAllister's house is not the same as 3 tiered mansion that looks like its not next to another house in terms of yard acreage.
@@Monty2289 correction, in HA 1 Pete's brother was paying for the entire family vacation for his new job in Paris, they were going for free.
Plus he got pissed at Kevin for spending nearly $1,000 on room service in HA 2, so he can't be filthy rich
"I'm not ugly, my mom says that I have character." Honestly the best moment. He genuinely felt sad delivering that line. Shame that the rest of the acting is sad for a completely different reason.
Archie Yates is such a great actor. The writers just fucked him over by making his lines so awful.
@@bobthebuilder8110 I'm never gonna watch this crap, but that kid actor looks likeable tbh
Fun fact: This movie was filmed in Montreal and the backyard and interior scenes were filmed in a studio set. Montreal is one of the most expensive cities in Canada
