How is there not a "he survived this" counter?
The sad thing is that I can imagine that.
Harry and Marv survive this * DING! *
And this * DING! *
And this * DING! *
And holy s*it, even this! *DING! *
Seriously, how are these assholes still breathing?!
Ghost Chaser I read that in his exact voice and I loved every second of it 😂😂
Naww i’d say they could easily survive all the shit in this with injuries. Home alone 2 is a different story. He cracking the fuck outta marv, throwing bricks at his forehead n electrocuting his ass
@@tloj2469 same 🤣 Ghost Chaser would be excellent at CinemaSins!
@@KD_Smoove Honest trailers did this and the end result is both men would be dead a dozen times over and then some just to make it through both movies. Nurses even describe the gory aspects of what would happen.
There should be a “he’s totally dead” sin counter
Hell yea

They should have had a "They survive all this bullsh*t" bonus round.
@@krizwatcher yeah he should do that sin counter for all the home alone movies.
Here you go ruclips.net/video/8WKgNyvsNDM/видео.html :)
Contrary to what Jeremy said, there actually IS one small, brief mention of the McCallisters having a dog. When Kate is on the phone at the beginning of the movie, right before Kevin jumps onto her bed, she says, "No, we're not bringing the dog. We put him in the kennel."
YUP
Correct
Yes, this is true 👍
I guess this is one of the audio versions of "blink and you'll miss it" moments.
Even if they never mentioned having a dog or a cat the cat/doggy door could’ve been there since the previous owners lived there. The film never says how long the McCallisters lived there but we know they didn’t always live there as Marley said ‘years back before you and your family moved on the block I had an argument with my son’
Kevin is the master of cleaning. Not only did he clean up after the robbers and before his family got home but he cleaned up all the popcorn on his parents bed between one scene to the next and didn't miss any. I'd hire him to clean my house.
But of course he forgot to clean buzz's room so we get the last laugh
Kevin is capable of so many things I'm sure he can find more wood to put his shelf back together
Going with the theme that Kevin is mistreated by his family, maybe he's the one that does all the cleaning for them anyway and so it's just ingrained in him. He's clearly a genius child whose talents are not recognized or appreciated by his parents, who just make him do all the domestic work instead. There's no other way to explain why he's so familiar with shopping and all kinds of other adult matters like paying for a hotel room with a credit card. He's a genius child being enslaved by his parents to do all the hard work for them, and he doesn't even have his own room. No wonder he took out all his pent-up rage on Marv and Harry.
He also missed Harry's gold tooth on the floor.
Some of these “complaints” are a stretch. I grew up in a family with 6 kids, so many things are absolutely true
@@R2Bl3nd Damn he really doesn't have his own room. Not even his own bed.
“Idiot kid tries to eat Mac and cheese with a fork and knife” lmaoooo
Lol try it with chop sticks
Try a NAIL
(Not a finger nail...)
and my parents think i weird since i'm the only who eats mac and cheese with a spoon
Perfectly good Mac n Cheese *WASTED*
@@sauce5066 WHY WOULD I THINK FINGER NAIL -shudders-
I’ve watched this movie over a hundred times and I can’t Believe I never noticed them throwing out Kevin’s plane ticket.
neither did I
Mandella effect.
I know same!
🤦♂️this in mu fav movie how did i miss that
I always did since I watched it in the theater... you just didnt pay attention
If the McCallisters were able to reach the answering machines at their neighbors, shouldn’t they have been able to reach their own? Then they could call Kevin and ask if he’s ok
After the storm knocked out the power and telephone lines, the worker the next day told Mrs. McCallister it was going to take days to straighten out the phone lines. Maybe their phone line didn't work yet when they were trying to call from the airport. Idk just a thought lol.
Kevin used the phone to order a pizza. A lovely cheese pizza.
Yep
It was numbers from Kate's address book. That doesn't mean they're all neighbors. It could easily be friends from the other end of town where the phones still work, but they just weren't home (in the days before cell phones!!)
@@meloyellowduck I googled around and cell phones already existed in the 90s. In fact, they were available in the 80s already.
I have a sin I'd add to the movie:
Kevin was somehow able to clean up/cover up almost any and all signs of what happened on Christmas Eve, which included de-icing the front and basement steps, a bunch of broken ornaments, tar and nailed shingles on the basement stairs, a large length of rope, the Micro-Machines, whatever object that broke when Harry threw the crowbar, cleaning all the scattered feathers, etc. ...
Yet he _somehow_ missed both Harry's tooth and Buzz's ruined shelves. Also, I'm very certain there is still a random tarantula wandering the McCallister home
Maybe Kevin really does have magic after all
I'm sinning you for saying that the tarantula is random. It's Buzz's pet tarantula
Kevin is psychic and lives in a movie so it makes perfect sense
@@januszcebulayt7863whose name is Axl, according to the novelization.
@@robertcarldecker yeah, however Jeremy doesn't even acknowledge its existence (existance? I'm Polish I don't remember) because he's ignorant af.
Kevin's family was literally crying over spilled milk.
Yeah, but doesn't cry over the fact that Kevin hasn't called them to tell them the fact that robbers are in *THE FUCKING HOUSE!*
fiscer247 ha ha ha
Figuratively and literally.
There's no use for that.
Really? I don’t recall anyone crying. That would’ve been funny if someone had though.
"I dont Care how mad I was I'd talk to my dad,especially around the holidays"
Give it 15 years young Kevin
Is that a once upon a time in hollywood reference?
@@nasiffarhan1239 lol nope, the actor doesn't talk to his dad IRL anymore.
Did Maculay Culkin even "give it" fifteen years past his eighth year before he was no longer on speaking terms with his dad? I know that he was emancipated while he was still a minor--which doesn't necessarily mean that he would have broken off all contact with either one of his parents as soon as he was no longer financially dependent on them.
I'm not trying to imply that either one of Culkin's parents didn't deserve to have their child disown them. His father in particular sounds like an @$$hole from what I have heard. I'm only emphasizing that the relationship between Culkin and his father really didn't match the sentiments that Kevin was mouthing in this movie, and wondering if the discrepancy might have been even larger than OP was inferring.
@@messinalyle4030 I meant my comment more along the lines of most people damn near alienate their loved ones as they get to that mans age.
@@BigMoney23223 I see some truth in that. People whose families have managed to stay intact by the time they reach middle age are pretty lucky.
Buzz and the others watching Old Man Marley like it's a novelty, despite living across the street from him, is one of the most realistic parts of the movie. Do you not remember being a child, deciding that your somewhat reclusive neighbor MUST be an axe murderer, and spying on them whenever they emerged?!
I had one of those in my neighborhood in my pre-teens. Then his wife hired me to do some yard work (yes, we did that in the '50s) and I got to know him and that he was really a pretty cool guy. He was a WWI vet and died of war-related injuries in his mid-50s, sad to say.
My dad told me that when he was a child in the 60s, he and all his friends thought that the reclusive landlord down the street was a murderer. One time one of his tenants got into a domestic dispute and the tenant's wife set him on fire (and he ran into the neighborhood screaming for help), so the rumor became that the landlord had been the one that set the guy on fire. All the children on the block were terrified of him.
That reclusive landlord was my maternal grandfather.
When I was a kid, we had a very reclusive neighbor who only seemed to leave his house to get the mail, and the few times I did speak to him, he was very cold and introverted. So, being a kid, I just thought he was weird.
It wasn't until he passed away that I found out he was actually a Vietnam vet with severe PTSD, which explained his behavior.
yet the Old man know the kid is alone and does nothing. and none of Kevin's friends see him or there parents do anything
surely the people in the street know that there going away for Christmas. So why when the see Kevin do they do nothing
@@davidsworld5837 their* their*
They left out the part how Kevin ordered a pizza because the phone lines were down lol
@@M3RCY333 Should’ve called the cops then.
@@sinclairj7492 Well, he's 8. And also, he recently saw Harry disguised as a cop. He might not trust them at all.
@@sinclairj7492 he avoided cops cause he thought they will arrest him for the stolen toothbrush
@@jemini8053 When the parents had them sent somebody but if Kevin would’ve called himself he’d be safe.
He used Uber eats.
Okay legit though, the scene with Kevin and the old man in the church is one of the few examples of an adult-kid conversation with believable dialogue, and makes me cry every time.
I work at that church, Grace Episcopal in Oak Park and we get people from all over the world wanting to see where he sat. A few years ago I did screen captures from the movie to figure out exactly where he sat so folks can get pictures. I am amazed at how many people seriously love this movie.
I literally cried at it so much
Unless its someone talking baby to every kid under 10, like every teacher i ever had.
I got your comment to 1K
@@eseosadestiny182 Thanks, Eseosa!
He really just added a sin for American Airlines 😂
Probably cause it showed a dc10 lol
Fun fact: AA has never done such early flights to Paris.

@@campbellaviation7357 I read it long time ago on Polish IMDB like site.
@@InessaMaxinova oh
Kate: what kind of a mother am I?
Me: one who leaves her kid home alone
You're quite boring
You would think that Kevin’s mom would have stopped at EVERY payphone between Paris and Chicago to see if she could contact Kevin or the police or SOMEBODY. There’s no emphasis on her doing this in the movie.
To be fair she did call the police when she arrived in Paris and the police did nothing so she probably figured that her going home to find him was the better option. Also Peter was calling people as well which is how the bandits know that Kevin is home alone because of peters message on a neighbour's answering machine.
11:31 actually, at the beginning of the film, when Mrs. McCallister is on the phone with her family and kevin comes into the room, she mentions "no, we're not bringing the dog, we put it in the kennel." So, yes, they *do* have a dog.
Xander J I literally just said this before I saw this comment. It’s definitely a quick line because if you don’t pay attention then you almost miss the line being said.
even if they didn't say that i don't think it warrants a sin since some houses already have dog doors built it, even if the family doesn't have dogs
edit: or if they bought the house from someone who owned dogs
But that doesn't give them the right to downright ignore the dog for the rest of the movie.
Yeah but we never SEE the dog. So now the question is where is the dog?? Th u forgot him too!! Dang the adults suck
I was about to comment this
Marv and Harry enter the house
*lights go off
Tape recorder starts playing: *I Wanna play a game, the rules are simple*
hehe good underrated joke
Booooo! Booooooooo! That's not an "underrated joke" it's some dipshit just stating a stupid, yet somewhat popular internet theory that Kevin is Jigsaw. Break down the comedy and approach to humor applied here, please.

I like when you point out actual plot holes and continuity errors, not just random nitpicks for the sake of making the video longer.

And you didn't mention the uncle calling Kevin a "jerk", and the parents not telling the uncle he could crawl to Paris for all they cared. That's what would have happened if one of my uncles called me a jerk.
My aunt called me a “little know-it-all” and my mother refused to speak to her for a month. 😊
@@sabrinaschell4938good mother
Right? Would've been like "stfu you bald pos"
These movies do show a lot of love for that uncle with no explanation for why he's so beloved.
Aunt Leslie should have slapped Uncle Frank for that remark.

This is an underrated comment 😂

One extra sin for:
“Marv, look at this.”
“You better take a look at this” cliché

"Look at this" is not really a "you better take a look at this" because the person actually shows the person something by himself without waiting for the said person to make a decision on looking or not looking
@@nintendoking4769 Mc

Dong
Cliche?
Also, Also SIN OFF for the whole tommy gun bit!
As a travel expert, it highly annoys me that they’re having Kevin pack his suitcase the night before they leave. I’m adding my own sin for that.
Also for the fact that there’s no way the kids are okay with sitting in economy seats while their parents are in first class.
Also also for the fact that uncle Frank’s wife hasn’t opted for a divorce.
Also also also because Buzz managed to eat an entire pizza before Kevin even got into the kitchen.
Okay I’m done with my rant.
Ok
Well, obviously his mom had a lot going on with a whole bunch of people to look after... Kevin was old enough she figured he could pack his own suitcase. She obviously didn't have time (as sad as it is) to help him with it, I guess.
Also, Buzz only mentioned the cheese pizza was already gone, not that HE ate it all. It's only indicating that he took the last piece and was eating it in front of Kevin to taunt him.
Maybe he smokes dope and has the munchies
"as a travel expert"
tell me you're autistic without telling me you're autistic
I agree. Uncle Frank was a jackhole.
The part about the McCallisters not having a better alarm system makes a lot more sense in the second movie.
You see, alarms of any type are incredibly expensive in the Home Alone universe, as evidenced by the fact that a wealthy family with multiple teenagers who clearly have difficulty waking up and that just experienced the worst-case scenario of that issue STILL only has a single alarm clock in the entire house.
Speaking of the alarm clock, I actually have a battery-backup alarm clock like that one (I have an iPad mini next to it that I use when I need an alarm...not in the Stone Age, but I like a constant display). You think I have a fresh battery in it? LOL.
@@RichM3000 Had one of those for years it never had a battery in it. I reckon it makes the movie more believable
For this and other similar models of alarm clock, even if there was a good battery in it for a backup, it only keeps the time/alarm settings for when the power is RESTORED, so it won't have any visible display showing during the actual power loss, as that would be too draining on the 9V battery. This is by design.
@@bucket1970 YES! Back then, it was probably a fluorescent segmented display which used much more power than a modern LED display.
@@curtchase3730 I forgot about fluorescent displays. Kind of amazing technology.
Forgot one point...how did Kevin order pizza with the phones down?
Uber eats. They had that in 1990.... right?
Tronald Dump lmao
that's actually possible with that old technology where phone cables for long and short distance were separated.
sethious1 I read this then Harry Potter music came on
Landlines dont use the houses electricity... they use the phone lines.. how do people not know this.. what landline plugs into the wall with a plug? And if its cordless it would still work cause it has a battery
You missed the part where they eat the pizza before paying the delivery guy.
I would have left.
Disrespectful
Also, Buzz's hands switch when eating the pizza, in addtion to different type of eating.
Very disrespectful
And there was like 3 or 4 boxes empty so he stood there for a long minite
I'm amazed you didn't give any attention to how much milk was pushed into this entire movie. The pizza party, a wine glass with the mac n cheese, milk for santa (with cookies and carrots to boost that cleansing effect... yeah, he knew what he was doing...) and the fact that Kevin's mom endured some long pilgrimage home and mentioned milk not even 5 minutes after arrival. WHAT IS WITH ALL THE MILK?!
Got Milk?
it was going to go off while they were away, pay attention early in the movie...
Karlson approves i sont see the problem
Nearly all American movies and TV shows have milk with every meal imo
I heard the milk budget was around $250k.
how you feel about your family is a complicated thing.
After being "disowned" by one of my sisters I relate to this so much. That scene has hit me hard every year since.
Hugs to you Ashley.
When the pizza delivery is quicker than the police response.
Just like real life...😁
Realistic
That's just a fact of life.
That is usually the case though lol
At this point you might as well give the pizza guy a glock.
I was hoping there would be a bonus round of “He survived this”
But Sinny the Sin Counter wouldn't survive that bonus round! Could you really be so cruel???
@Good Puss 3000. W...T...F
No more comments
Ok I think Kevin did laundry so soon because all his clean clothes were in the suitcase he packed
Im happy he mentioned the fact that not one person in that entire house full of people noticed there was a damn cop in the house for like 20 minutes.
honestly i think they saw him they just didn’t care , same way they didn’t care for the pizza man
Worst parents in movie history any movie rated under rated R
How did no one notice he was no where to be found in the house
Speaking of rated R,
ruclips.net/video/ZgLqxSPIhR0/видео.html
At least he has parents, unlike Batman and half the other protagonists in every story ever.
This movie in a nutshell: The cameraman was with Kevin the whole time
LOL
I mean, you are not wrong.
And he can teleport to Paris at will
*Ding!*
U do know it's a movie don't u
You know John Williams is a fantastic composer when it only takes four notes to send chills up your spine.
I can confirm the sled stops very abruptly when you reach the bottom of the stairs
A whole lot of great Sins missed in this one:
1) Marley himself is one giant Sin. Nobody ever tried calling Marley, who literally lives next door and was home. The police didnt talk to Marley. Later in the movie when all phones were working, Marley was never even thought of.
2) Marley had about 100 chances to notice Kevin was Home Alone. He must have known the parents were gone. He even rescued Kevin from certain death across the street, only to drop him off at the doorstep and never once asked to talk to his parents. Just left the kid literally at the door after almost being killed by burglars!
3) How did Kevin get the rope INSIDE the treehouse through the side opening to make a zip line to the house when he was on the ground running with it and would have had to go up the ladder with it underneath the treehouse? Not possible to do what he did.
4) How did the rest of the family get home right after Mom, in a snowstorm on Christmas morning? We clearly see blizzard conditions, but their flights to Chicago were on time and they were able to easily drive from the airport and get home right after Mom?
and there are no "they survived this counts". like both criminals should have gotten severe injuries, bruises, and certain death, and YET they shrug it off like its nothing, do theese robbers have a superpower that allows them to withstand the toughest of beatings? caus i think so!

Spike Films Ughhhhhhh.
Spike Films Also, wouldn’t Peter have noticed Travis in his bed with his naked wife when he came back from Christmas shopping? Or wouldn’t he have noticed Kate missing from it if they weren’t in the bed? He clearly woke up in that bed with her in the morning with no Travis, and the asshole who wrote the fan-fic said he and Kate spent all night making the sexy times, and that they together in the morning when Kate realized that they were late to the airport. Even if Kate was in bed with Peter, I’m sure Peter wouldn’t be peachy about a horny teenager having sex with his wife all night RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. This author either created an alternate reality in this franchise, or they wiped their ass with the meaning of continuity just so they could throw a sex scene into an otherwise-PG movie. Either way, I don’t like it.
*That awkward moments when you realize Buzz isn't even old enough to have his balls drop, but you still thought he was old.*
Maybe mentioned before but
Harry's police officer jacket has a city of Chicago flag patch on it while the family clearly lives in a suburb of Chicago.
The city of Chicago flag is on all the police officer's jackets in the movie
As a kid, my favorite part of the entire movie was the unrolling of the Map of all the traps. I wanted that map as a poster on my wall SO FREAKING BAD as a young kid.
Why not do it now? Never too late to tend to your inner child.
Fun fact: apparently Kevin's actor was actually the one who drew that map.
@@RavenStarMedia you can't say the word 'fact' and then start your sentence off with 'apparently'🤣🤣
@@insidescuff 😂😂
Just ask any D&D dungeon master to show you the dungeon map they have prepped. That's going to have dozens of things to kill or maim the players.
What bothers me most about this movie is that after Kevin says, "or are you thirsty for more?" he does not deploy a water-based trap. The pun was there for the taking.
Probably because Kevin's actor actually ad-libbed that line during filming.
Wouldn't this also be how Kevin found out Santa wasn't real? We never see him have that conversation with his family. He told the man dressed as Santa that he knew he wasn't the real Santa, but he put out milk and cookies after returning home and presumably cleaning up the house, so he must have thought there still was a real Santa.
Also, who put the presents under the tree? If Kevin somehow found them and put them there himself then he HAS to know that Santa isn’t real.
He told the man dressed as Santa that he works for the real one : he believes in Santa...
@@PaganSverige Correct
@@randomcentral0766 Not necessarily. My parents would put presents under the tree in the days leading up to Christmas as gifts from them, but later more gifts arrived from "Santa" in my stocking and under the tree the night before Christmas. However, what/when was the parents' plan anyway to give these gifts if they were away for the holidays?
There is no way Buzz would have been able to eat an entire pizza by himself in the small amount of time the pizza was there. Even if he ate as fast as he could, just to make sure Kevin didn't get any, there still would have been at least half the pizza left
Buzz is fat. That’s why.
It was mentioned that Buzz ordered the Pizzas so he probably didn't order a cheese one deliberately.
He prob at a piece to show Kevin he ate it and threw it in the trash
When I was about 4, me and a couple of my second cousins where out playing. Then their neighbour came walking by, he was probably in his 60's. The oldest of my cousins told me some bogus story about him chasing and kidnapping the local children. Scared the shit out of me. Of course, a few months later I bumped into him in the staircase and pretty much reacted the same way Kevin does! In the end it turned out he was actually a nice guy.
Older kids like scaring younger kids with bullshit, I think that's pretty much what they're going for in this scene.
Your story reminded me of similar story in our family. One summer our relative was visiting us and staying at my grandmother’s house. She was 4 or 5 years old then. My cousin, who is 5 years older, took her to a shop one day. They were riding a bike. On a way to the shop there is a creepy-looking house. So my cousin decided to scare the little girl and told her that the owner is a serial killer. On a way back, as they were approaching the creepy house, the owner was coming out of it with an ax in his hands, because he was chopping firewood in the yard. The little girl started screaming and crying in the middle of the road, and was shouting at my cousin: „Drive faster! Drive faster!” :D I’ve always wondered, what did the owner of the house thought. Probably is a weird feeling when kids scream after seeing you.
@@dacekundrate4391 there was a house on the next block that the rumor was the man hung his wife in the front room. All the kids would dare each other to look in to see if anything was happening. Looking back now, Iwonder what the owner thought about these kids peeking into their house?lol
Yeah older kids do shitty stuff like that. That's one of the most realistic parts of the movie😎😎🤣🤣🤣
When Kevin first saw Harry he was posing as a cop so he probably thought the police wouldn’t protect him.
And there is the fact he wished his family gone and that he technically stole from the store (the latter the neighbor probably exsplained and payed for but still) in his mind both that and the fact of seeing harry in cop clothing would make him think the police would take him to jail not protect him.
Considering how long it took tue cops to actually arrive after Kevin called them, yeah it’s a fair assumption that the cops can’t protect you. Not to mention the cop going to the house at the beginning after it was reported a young child was left home alone, and the all the cop does is knock a couple times even though all the lights are on in the house. Didn’t even try to check the house out and just bails. So I can I understand why he would rig his house and fight to protect himself. That’s why our gun rights are important bc we are the only real protectors of ourselves and the cops will never be able to get to you in time of danger
@@jakeh6980 its a movie they had to make the cops arrive super late same thing applies with the dumb cop otherwise movie would’ve ended a long time ago
@@jakeh6980 Cops aren't legally obligated to protect you anyway.
Adriana Bermudez Really?? It’s a movie?? Obviously nothing gets past you. Are you aware that the whole purpose of this RUclips video is to make fun of all the things that don’t make sense in the movie?? Hence, why I said what I said
I packed my own stuff once as a kid. I packed a bunch of kids, one shirt, and one pair of pants. No socks. No underwear. No extra clothes. Thank God, my mom is smart and a super mom, so she packed a separate suitcase for me. Point being, yeah, no kid can pack their own suitcase.
You packed a bunch of KIDS?? 😳

All the airport scenes were filmed in O'Hare, they just shot in different areas for the French airport, hence the sun being out at 3 AM.
So that's why the payphone worked with US coins.
No chance of ....filming at....night? 🤔
@@Vpmatt Then the airport would have been empty and they would have had to pay a bunch more extras.
@@user-lv7ph7hs7l I've never been in a French airport, but I'd think that they payphones right next to an international gate would take coins from other countries.
9:16 I don’t think Buzz actually thinks Marley’s a serial killer, he’s just trying to convince his gullible younger siblings that he is.
The red-haired kid isn't their sibling, he's one of their cousins. There's a common misconception that ALL the kids live in that house... but there are four kids in the main McAllister family (Buzz, Kevin, and the two girls). You can see them in the photographs and they're also the ones that show up at the house at the end. (The uncle's family stayed in Paris.)
@@Swiftbow This is a great observation, I knew some were cousins, but I wasn't totally sure. So it's Kevin, Buzz, the brunette sister played by Hillary Wolf that worries something to happen to Kevin and Buzz says they live on the most boring street, and...the blonde that calls him "Les incompetente", right?? Although wait, what about Heather? She seems like Kevin's mom's daughter, the way she instructs her to count heads and whatnot
@@mywhychromosome Yeah, I think I made a mistake in my earlier post. Three girls, Kevin, and Buzz. (They're all in the portrait photo Kevin picks up when he wishes to have his family back.)
@@Swiftbowwrong, red head kid is Kevin’s older brother Jeff. When he’s asking that Santa dude to bring his family back, he names them: “Peter, Kate, Buzz, Meghan, Linnie, and Jeff.” He has four siblings, not three. Jeff is credited as the kid from “Pete and Pete,” which is the red head one.
@vdussaut9182 correct. And the stockings on the fireplace have two big ones for the parents and 5 little ones for the kids. So kevin has 4 siblings
I love home alone but be honest here there is no way those two can survive all that.
Whenever my housemate and I watch it, we always say that! 😂

You have to watch it the same way you watch Tom and Jerry or Loony Tunes.
#57. Considering it’s like 30 years old, I didn’t get to see if the door was closed when Kevin ran back in, but you have encountered those doors that lock w/o a key or a manual latch, right?
Every single door I’ve ever owned has the main, simple “knob won’t turn” self-lock and then the deadbolt that requires a physical locking.
11:46
After he slips, he goes again, instead of thinking to go around to the sides
You didnt cover when Kevin shouted "WHEN I GROW UP AND GET MARRIED IM LIVING ALONE!"
...what the *fuck?!* Kevin is CLEARLY high on meth or cocaine in this moment, which leaves him to *meth overdose*, which can really fuck you up sometimes!
He’s 8 years old.
Its almost as if the line doesn't deserve a sin
FELONIOUS phil isnt Kevin a traumatised 8 yr old? I mean his family left him behind 3 times. That’d fuck me up too.
D I V O R C E
“Kevin unknowingly ingests a heavy stimulant, and spends the next several minutes tripping balls”
The moment I subbed to this channel
With the battle plan and setting traps part, I have a feeling he made the map earlier in the day. And possibly some of the traps were set up before 8pm
Exactly since he heard the burglars discussing their plan earlier that day so it makes sense if me made the plans earlier that day
I remember watching this when I was still learning the basics of English. I understood like 1/3 of what was being said so it's nostalgic to now listen to this and actually understand wtf the jokes are.
That's really cool. What were some of the jokes that you didn't get back then, but you do now?
@@nthgth It would be easier to count the jokes that I understood back then. Because I understood so little, pretty much all of the jokes and remarks flew over my head. But I understood some, like the gag about the house in the logo being different from the actual house because it contained simple and common words. Or the one about Pesci's character talking about the houses having timed Christmas lights because the words were straightforward to translate in my head (aika/ajastettu=time/timed). The language I speak is from a different language group so I didn't even have the advantage of a familiar language on my side (like in the movie the "le incompétents" -joke would be understood by an English speaker).
10:55 The parents already called the cops to say their 8-year-old was home alone, and the cop didn't do jack shit. Kevin had no choice but to go vigilante.
As a kid I never realized how unlikable every character is. This movie's message about appreciating family fails because they're all assholes and Kevin was better off without them.
Hence the title. Even when everyone is home, Kevin is alone.
lol 😅😂😂😂
Also even if they do believe there is nobody home because the cop rang the doorbell twice and didn't think a small child could have hurt himself or not be able to answer the door so just reported back that nobody was home, the McAllister's jump through hoops to rush back and the first place they look is their own home.
Kevin doesn't even wreck the house or really do anything all that bad in the period before the wet bandits show up- sure, he pigs out on junk food and watches trash for the first night, but only once, and he cleans up after himself afterwards
One thing my parents always told me before leaving the house for a few hours was: "Don't answer the door while we're gone." He was probably told the same thing not to mention he was scared
I heard somewhere that Buzz's girlfriend was actually a boy dressed in girl's clothes so as to avoid people shaming her whenever the movie aired.
^This is a true fact.
Tasteful
I think it was the same actor who played Buzz, actually.
@@scorpiocarnage1055 actually the son of the film's art director made up like a girl
@@carloswaluda8048 Okay. Thanks for the correction. I knew it was someone in relation to the film.
8:32 Flooding someone's house would cause an ungodly amount of damage. Mold for weeks, all of their belongins destroyed, literally thousands of dollars worth of damage that would devastate the family financially and pyschologically. There's also no reason for Marv to do it other than "muh calling card". It's infinitely worse than stealing a bunch of materialistic items
Actually, during the scene where everyone’s eating pizza (before the family leaves for Paris) someone does mention that they put their dog in a kennel for the duration of their vacation. So they do indeed have a dog.
Just pointing it out.
The sled not aligning with the door and the M on Harry's hand were probably the first error I ever caught in a movie. It was so obvious he would go right into the wall that even 6 year old me was like.... uhhhh no.
Yes I remember having the same thought, unless it's a false memory or something
Also, I think I was pretty annoyed by the kid's overconfidence. Should have at least been a little scared by the guys.
It would have been funnier if he had hit the wall.
@@maggiesmith856 Lmao. 😂😂😂
The clock showing 8:00 is irrelevant because they were running around after it lost power and was flashing 12, they probably didn't set it before they left
@@maggiesmith856 LOL, it'd be game over. He'd be DOA, run the credits!
8:37 I mean that's fair I guess. If you steal someone's stuff, then you're at least gain something from it. Flooding their entire house for no reason is a step up of assholeness
I felt like it was a more general statement than just the water. Marv makes a lot of wierd statements ranging from wierd to not untrue but like "the hell?" And thats why hes iconic. Lets face it though, harry is the brains and is a fun gangster, hes not an idiot. Films may not convey that cause comedy but, I couldve seen him as a member of the gang of home alone 3.
@betatalk357 that.... was fucking beautiful! 😂❤️ Now I really need to watch Lethal Weapon again.
drinking homemade hot chocolate while watching this and I must say I feel like a badass
How so? Are u home alone? Cuz..lol this says "not badass"
"You can say hello when you see me."
" And YOU can stop being a scary bastard! " Lol
Seriously, no sin off for the true emotional moment at the end where the old man hugs his granddaughter?!
I predict that when the Home Alone remake comes out, the biggest sin will be "This movie exists." Because WHY would you want to remake a classic like this when nothing's wrong with the original?
krizwatcher What about the sins?
@@zarthy4169 Which ones do you predict for the remake?
@Luxvolt There were quite a few things wrong with Aladdin and honestly the remake wasn't that bad.
This entire video LISTS the things wrong with the orignal.
They won't be remaking Home Alone. They tried replacing the kid in Home Alone 3, but that don't work.
I watch Home Alone 1 and 2 every Christmas and have done since I was a child back in the early 90s.
I am very surprised that he didn't remove a sin for that scene with marv screaming at the tarantula
The scene of Kevin cutting the rope with Harry and Marv has always bothered me. There’s not enough distance between them and the ground for a full swing that would make them collide with the house. They’d faceplant in the snow. Genuinely surprised you didn’t sin that.
That would still have been hilarious.
Thank you. Was going to say the exact same thing. I found that whole thing curious, even as a kid.
Pretty sure this was based on a true story
It bothered me too, because Harry and Marv are clearly hanging off a tight line of rope, and Kevin has a shit ton of slack on the line in the treehouse. Genuinely surprised Jeremy missed this one.
Domino's Pizza used to have a 30-minutes or less guaranteed delivery or your pizza was free. Word is it came out of the delivery driver's paycheck which led to them driving recklessly in order to make the deadline. Domino's abandoned this policy after someone was killed in an accident involving a Domino's delivery truck.
I'm pretty sure they were just doing it for comedic effect for the movie though, lol
But yes, that's insane.
So delivery guys not only got exploited by the system but had to pay instances where they couldn't keep up with an arbitrary standard decided by their managers out of their own pockets.
Can I sin capitalism? I'm sinning capitalism.
No, that's just in the movie Dirty Work. It's COMPLETELY ILLEGAL to deduct things like that from an employee's paycheck
Not true. At all.
@@dolphinsneu It may be illegal, but it happens. A lot. Especially if the unscrupulous management thinks they can get away with it, due to the young and/or ignorant employee who doesn't know the law or their own rights.
I love this movie and I watch it every christmas, but I never noticed that they "accidentally" threw out Kevins plane ticket lol
Ok, got another one, so the whole counting kids thing is more difficult that one might think. I have 7 siblings and there one particular situation where one of my siblings was left at a gas station on a road trip across the country back in the 60s, before I was born, but still, 7 kids. The ending of that story was 1 sister happily eating a lollipop surrounded by a few police officers, 6 siblings jealous that they didn't think to try and stay behind, and 1 pair of parents absolutely distraught that they left a kid.
There is mention of a dog. When Mrs McAllister is on the phone early on “We’re not bringing the dog we’re taking him to the kennel”
Well that's a shit deal..the dog goes to animal prison And everyone else go on holiday
JUSTICE FOR DOGGIES!!!!!!
@@chrisallie2224 yeah, But not all kennels are like a prison, where I live there's a kennel where the dogs Have warm beds and relaxing music and toys to play with in a garden and are fed well
ShaniaLovesHorses well I’m from it looks like peoples prison with less animals
@@Shiba_Draws so why do you love horses
The fact that he mentions John Williams genius in this movie makes me so happy. He is well deserving of his amazing job on film music.
When you break down what's wrong I so surprised growing up we never noticed it, even seeing it many times after that. Great job bro.
The father also seems to have gotten a different script than everyone else. In the Paris airport he tells Kate "don't you get lost", and when he's on the phone in Paris he screams "I'm looking for my son..." He seems to think Kevin is lost when everyone knows exactly where he is.
To be fair the police didn't do their job properly and they said that no one was home. So that could be why peter said "im looking for my son, do you know where he is."
The actor did go on record to say he wanted nothing to do with the role until after it was already released, so he may very well have ignored the script as a big middle finger to the whole thing.
He should've taken off a sin for Joe Pesci not swearing for a whole movie.
He did swear. When Marv hit him in the chest with a crowbar, trying to hit the tarantula. I heard at least 15 curse words.
It's bizarre watching Pesci in this relatively genteel role when you think about what a terrifying psychopath he portrays in the Scorsese movies. Goodfellas even came out the same year as Home Alone!
@@karlsavage7495 yeah, but then there's My Cousin Vinny, where he's delightfully vulgar but a good guy.
Maybe he was generally trying to move into less insane roles
@@nthgth but the reaction to the steam whistle in My Cousin Vinny was perfect.
@@karlsavage7495 Casino as well
It has become a national tradition here in Poland for Home Alone to be played on Christmas, to the point it's a running joke.
But I still like it, when you've seen it so many times, it became tradition in and of itself.
the more you now
Does it play for 24 hours like A Christmas Story here in the US?
Lots of people I know have this tradition also (USA here), and also with the original Die Hard!
Extra sin: Kevin somehow doesn't think to ask where his pizza is until Buzz has eaten all of it. Either Buzz is a Kobayashi-level speed eater or Kevin stood around for a good 15-20 minutes looking everywhere without ever catching the fact his older brother was eating his pizza.
Or buzz never ordered the cheese pizza in the first place
My friends dad who lives next door to me now was in O'hare airport when they were filming the hussle through the airport scene and ended up in the movie. He is super proud of himself for that, he's a movie star! lol I also watched this movie in the theater with MY dad on it's opening day, we both really liked the movie.
Kevin was sleeping in the attic when everyone left. He was sleeping on the couch in the living room when the car door slams. that's why he didn't hear the families car doors slam.
In my experience attic walls are thin as hell, he should have atleast heard something in the attic
No Kevin is a heavy sleeper. He just happened to be half awake when they came.
CinemaSins: “This obviously well-off family HAS overdone it on the Christmas lights”
Clark Griswold: *Am I a joke to you?*
Or Danny DeVito from "Deck The Halls". Oh you probably haven't seen that crap. XD
The dog was put in a kennel for the trip- the mom mentions it almost right away on the phone at the beginning
13:20 he should’ve called Little Neros instead.
“Well if you want some somebody’s gonna gave to barf it up” my brother says that to me all the time
@Manek Iridius Violence is never the answer, unless you're in prison.
Seriously, what is Buzz? Some kind of orc they adopted after finding him in the dumpster? If I saw that f*ck in front of me I'd move to another continent. 😂😂😂😂
When he says when the director fails to call cut after the money shot.
@Manek Iridius ...he's around 6,4 I'm under 6 foot, he also has the temperament of an infant, I try that and my ass is kicked
@@jacobpierce9907 Don't underestimate yourself cuz you're smaller, you know what they say, the smallest scorpions have the strongest stings.
The rest of Kevin's family comes home acting like they don't care at all whether or not Kevin was okay. I know they basically thought that he would be fine but even his dad isn't a tiny bit worried about what happened as he's first entering the house?!?! Maybe he's fine physically but what about mentally? His entire family disappears suddenly, leaving an 8 year old alone for days with no explanation and his dad is like "whatever"?! His dad is really the worst parent.
Oh the mom was horrible too that family disgusted me toxic asf
“THIS IS MY HOUSE. I HAVE TO DEFEND IT”
“ Sure, but you can also just call the god damn cops as soon as the robbers show up, rather than design a Saw like torture house” lmfao
My dad used to go to Florida for a month an dleave me at hom ealone with money for food. Best time ever. I could blast music at 4am and order pizza every day.
"Look, i have an older brother in real life, and he did plenty of older brother things to me..."
Jeremy out of context for the day
Additional sin. He cleans up the entire house from all the damage, except for Buzz's room, and that one gold tooth in the middle of the living room floor.
Which his dad then touches upon finding it.
8:10 think the better question is how could they call internationally from a payphone? Its probably like $3 a minute.
Ok, I just heard the 8 yr old packing himself…GREAT CATCH! My sons once packed to go to grandmas…when we got there, here was the contents: A PlayStation controller and 1 dirty sock packed into a plastic grocery bag! Ps-no I did not see there ‘suitcase’ before. They also ‘loaded’ it into the car 😂😂
WE. NEED. ONE. FOR. HOME. ALONE. 3!!! At this point, it deserves one too. No movie goes without sin. That’s the motto
I watched it and spotted a lot of sins. I emailed it to the guy. Hopefully he gets it and creates a video soon
@@sundeepkuntimad5339 Home Alone 4,5 and 6 are sins just for existing. 😣
Home Alone 3 is a pretty good movie! Of course not iconic like the first two, maybe it doesn't deserve the Home Alone name since all the characters are different, but if they gave it a different name, it would be panned as a Home Alone ripoff!
Sin number 1 for HA3, this movie exists.
@@MyrtleEntertainment a lot of sins propagate from this
3:57 Battery back up in those clocks simply means that the chip inside keeps track of the time so you don't have to reset it when the power comes back on. It does not mean the display will light up, nor does it mean the alarm will go off.
You might be right. I am not saying you are wrong. I am saying that I had several of those types of alarm clocks growing up and underneath was a battery compartment. They were plugged into the wall outlet, but if the power went out, the alarm clock ran off the batteries until the batteries died, or the power was restored. So in this case, it is a sin. Because they did not put in batteries on the chance that their power would go off.
@@travisolson9413 exactly, it's a sin for Kate and Peter
I have one (not that model, but same idea). The battery merely keeps the time internally while power is out. The clock is dead otherwisemwithout AC power.
My backup battery alarm clock continues running when the powers off. The batteries only last for a couple of hours though, so if it went off 4 hours before I needed to get up, it wouldn't help any.
@@travisolson9413 Characters making mistakes is not a sin. Plenty of people didn't keep working batteries in those alarm clocks. It's probably the most realistic thing in the entire movie.
I never realized how physcopathic Kevin was
My mom sent me an article link where apparently Home Alone viewers are just now noticing why Kevin was left behind.
Home Alone is perhaps the only movie where I actually kind of like the dead main character theory because the movie makes more sense.
The theory goes that Kevin is a poltergeist, though maybe not aware. Everyone hates him except his mom because they’re through with being sad and just want him to move on. His mother is the only one who still wants him there. The fear of the basement and discomfort with upstairs represents have not wanting to move on to heaven or hell. They leave him on purpose. They figure he wouldn’t be coming with them, since he’s probably tied to the house. This would also explain why he doesn’t call the police, and possibly how he works so fast on traps. Marv and Harry are demons attempting to come get Kevin and drag him to hell, hence surviving everything and being able to see him.
Marley is introduced salting the sidewalks. Salt is considered to create a sacred place, keeping away supernatural creatures. Marley also has some supernatural abilities and is trying to protect Kevin from the Wet Bandits. The first time Kevin tried to leave the yard, Marley scared him back inside. Marley is the one who talks to Kevin in church and he damaged the wet bandits with his shovel. Reminder, these men survived blowtorches and didn’t die. But a shovel is their maker?
Good imagination.
That's one hell of an imagination for the family...... until the sequel came around which is a smaller and stupider version of this film
This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard lol. What’s the need for a theory to begin with?
I packed my own suitcase when I was 4!
...it contained trains, and that’s it.
That's a good start, I guess. :)
I like the way this guy thinks!
How'd you fit a bloody train in your suitcase?
Talentless Commenter MDXXVIII toy trains you nonce
@@Luna-kw2gk r/wooosh
Missed sin. Kevin cleans up the entire mess of all his traps and everything, but just happens to miss Harry's gold tooth, which the father finds right away.
If you have subtitles on, Kate mentions putting their dog in a kennel before their trip. I literally just stumbled upon this tonight while watching the dvd with subtitles on...question answered
YES. I've watched this movie regularly each Christmas, and this is literally the first year I have ever noticed her mentioning putting the dog in a kennel.
That brings up so many more questions. Were there any other signs of the dog in the house? Loose chew toys? a leash hanging on a hook? A water dish?
You missed why does the neighbour not find it odd the house next door with way too many kids is so quiet but theres still one kid whos there alone
Also the cop knocks a few times and in less than a minute comes to the conclusion just like that the kid isnt inside the house. What if he electrocuted himself or something, not even gona check?
He had the awareness to clean up his traps despite believing his family had disappeared and had no reason to think theyd be back
The cops dont question the very fresh and unusual severe injuries the burglars have
Kevin called the cops pretending to be the neighbour. When he later returns home to find out the cops are there to stop a burglary there is no confusion about the phone call even though he didnt make it and the cops will inevitably ask about it
The bare foot on the ornaments trap only works cos his socks and shoes came off in the previous trap. What if he went thru the window first instead of the basement then neither trap wouldve worked
