Must do part 2..... then Christmas Vacation****, A Christmas Story****, The Santa Clause 1 & 2**, Jingle All the Way, Elf.... and the two B&W Classics "Its a Wonderful Life & Miracle on 34th Street"
If this is real, amazing…but it’s A LOT to accept. Signature on a napkin? Ok…cool. But to sketch out a snow shovel? 67-68 year old actor signs a napkin and then thinks, “This signature’s not complete without a very crude rendering of a snow shovel”. Like I said, if it’s true…love it ❤
Fun Fact.... at the time, Columbus was a young director without much credit. During the production, Columbus was asked what kind of music he wanted for the movie. He said something like "I would love to have John Williams music one day, but i cant pay him" Its not known who, but someone of the production team send the script and Columbus statement to John Williams. Williams called Columbus a few days later saying "I´ve red your script, i love it. I do the music for free." 10 years later, they would work togther again, on Harry Potter
This isn't true. Columbus's original pick to score the movie was Bruce Broughton, who had to cancel at the last minute due to a schedule conflict. Steven Spielberg got him in touch with John Williams. By the time Williams came on board the movie had been shot; he agreed to score it after watching it, not from reading the script. I can find no source saying Williams work for free, but it's unlikely that his rate would have broken the $18M budget. From a 2015 Entertainment Weekly interview with Columbus: ⟪If you see an early poster for Home Alone, the credits read “Music by Bruce Broughton.” Bruce Broughton did the score for Young Sherlock Holmes, a movie I wrote, and I always wanted to work with him, so we hired him to do the score. But as we were getting closer to finishing the film we got a call from Bruce saying that he was under a deadline to finish his score for The Rescuers Down Under and he couldn’t do Home Alone. So we were left without a composer. I had known Steven Spielberg for years … Steven got me in touch with John Williams’ agent, and John agreed to screen the film and he fell in love with it. His score took the movie to a different level.⟫
carrots are for the reindeer. It is traditional in many European countries, like the Netherlands to leave food for Santa's reindeer near the fireplace in wooden shoes.
I love that John Candy and Macaulay were reunited in this after Uncle Buck. Even though they weren't in a scene together, close enough. Also the funeral scene by Candy was completely improvised, which makes it even more hilarious. And Marv's spider death scream is legit. He had arachnophobia. The greatest crime in this certainly...is that Kevin didn't even get to eat his Macaroni and Cheese.
Here's the actual full truth behind the spider scene. Yes, Daniel Stern was terrified to do the stunt. So he only agreed to do it once and once only. But in order to avoid scaring the spider from his scream, he had to mime it. The audio for the scream was added in later.
Fun fact is that Macauly Culkin gotten his star on Hollywood Walk of Fame this week. Mac had his lady, Brenda Strong with their kids there. Catherine O'Hara aka Kevin's mom was there too celebrating him.
@@boqndimitrov8693who cares, it’s well deserved for giving us those classics that play every year mind you. It’s 30 years overdue and it wouldn’t be the familiar Christmas without em.
I think Marv stepping on the nail would be super painful. But, there are several other ways these guys would have had cracked skulls, broken noses, and brain trauma, possibly collapse immediately from brain trauma, cooked brain... etc.
Verowak, in case you don’t know the man in the yellow jacket who gave her a ride home… that’s John Candy. He’s a legendary comedic actor. He passed away in 1994 from a heart attack, he’ll never be forgotten
@@VerowakReacts yeah, he only has a small role in this movie. But in other movies he’s the lead character, I’ve seen other people on here mention Uncle Buck which was one of his best movies… The Great Outdoors was another great one of his movies, Summer Rental was another one…
i was confused when you were startled by him pouring the laundry detergent in. that was pretty much standard operating procedure with a top loading washer with the old non-concentrate detergent
So back in the day we were still good people to each other. It is unthinkable for the newer generations but we used to take care of each other. We stopped and offered rides, help with broken down cars, held doors open forr ladys etc. Times were different and people knew how to properly treat each other.
33:19 old timey tradition -- carrots for Santa's reindeer and cookies/milk for Santa. This was such a great reaction -- nice to see new people enjoying this classic! Thanks for posting.
I absolutely love this film. The neighbor at the end that see's his son and family is so meaningful. I'm a single dad who raised my three boys all by myself. Now I have Christmas every year with my youngest and his family, because he lives near. The two older ones live to far away for a yearly get together. One on the other side of Texas and the other in Denver!! Have a wonderful Christmas 'V'. You and your family. As we say here in Texas; y'all be safe.
Thanks, Verowak! 🦌 Wishing you a warm and pleasant winter with all your celebrations, big and small. ෴ Not only did John Williams score this, but also the director, Chris Columbus, directed the first two HARRY POTTER movies.
I’m not sure why but the music kind of scared me as a little kid. But I thought the same thing when I watched Harry Potter that the music sounded similar. The first and second Harry Potter movies were directed by the same person as Home Alone and the music was composed by John Williams.
I love being able to notice similarities between soundtracks of a composer. The music is mystical, which with the right imagination can definitely make it scary
The real tearjerker is this movie being a time capsule of a better time: cheap groceries, no TSA at the airport, and nobody spending every waking hour staring at a mobile device. Second movie is just as terrific, if not funnier, however some may claim it's inferior. The third one is..... okay. Four through six are complete wet farts and I'd discourage anyone from seeing those if looking for above-average quality. Edit: Carrots for reindeer. That's at least what my aunt/uncle told me when I slept over on Christmas Eve while mother worked. Age 7 in 1996 you'd have me believe almost anything.
This was my go to 90s kid Christmas movie (and the sequel is awesome). I figured then every kid thought they could turn their house into a fortress of comedy and concussion. That was such a fun trip down memory lane, the nostalgia was 11/10 and so much I forgot so thanks!
The mass appeal of this movie is not to be underestimated: I think it came out in November of 1990. Swear to God, it was still playing in my local multiplex the following June.
Home alone is an all time classic and even here in Europe (Germany) it belongs to Christmas culture, watching it with the family☺️ There's a very interesting making of - documentary in Netflix about this movie. Cool Outfit😉
I was the same age as Kevin (8) when this movie came out, and I was really into the history of US Presidents. My impression of Old Man Marley was that he looked like Benjamin Harrison, who was the US President from 1889 to 1893.
The carrots are for the reindeer. We do this in England but we also put a mince pie aswell, but instead of milk we usually put alcohol out for Father Christmas/Santa. The 2nd one is good aswell, it goes downhill after that.
And you can briefly see Joe Pesci's stunt double for a few seconds when he flips over the wire before Kevin gets to the spider. Also, fun fact, someone in the crew actually painted the BB that shot Marv in the face. Also, the scene where Harry and Marv almost hit Kevin with their truck was filmed in reverse. Kinda like a Coldplay - The Scientist, kinda thing.
7:14 - Yes, the miscount and the fact that when they're mopping up the spillage caused by Kevin and Buzz in the kitchen the night before. Kevin's dad throws away Kevin's ticket without realising it.
It's two families preparing to travel to Paris for Christmas. Uncle, aunt cousins are at the house. Kevin's family lives at the house in a Chicago suburb. Most of John Hughes' films are set in and around Chicago. The scene in the church is preparation for Midnight Mass. People don't typically arrive for Midnight Mass until 10pm. Kevin has to return home by 9pm so he cannot stay for Midnight Mass.
A fun series of movies. Your laughter is infectious and fun to watch. Love your expressions and comments. It would be cool to see you react to more of them.
This was a lot of fun to watch for the millionth time, but along with you ❤ Some ninja was cutting onions in my bed when the church scene happened, I don't know why! Also, cute onesie!
Absolutely one of my favorite christmas movies. Kevin's resourcefulness was an inspiration as a kid. Well, his and MacGyver's. As a former latchkey kid, I'd say that Kevin's independence is completely realistic.
I had gotten my first car right around the time this came out. I think this is the first movie I drove myself to see. I went by myself to a late evening showing on a Friday or Saturday night. I loved it.
There was only a few people at the church when Kevin talks with the old man because its just rehearsal for the midnight mass &/ or the Christmas day mass.
John Williams did the score for Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones & the Christopher Reeve Superman movie. But Chris Colombus, the director of this movie & the 2nd movie, did however direct the 1st & 2nd Harry Potter movies. He also wrote the script for Gremlins (definitely recommend that one, also a classic Christmas movie. Also recommend Gremlins 2) Hope you do Home Alone 2, the others you can skip. Fuller is played by Mac's brother Kieran, who also became an actor when he got older. Among the roles he did was playing the gay roommate in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Come on, Vero, John Candy was your country's national treasure ;) =)
kevin really "grew up" during the run time of the movie. he was "forced" to grow up to shop for groceries, do laundry, and even defend his house from Harry and Marv. He grew from being a bratty kid at the beginning of the movie, to taking on and accepting more responsibility by the end of the film.
Interestingly, in Poland there is a TV station "POLSAT" which shows this film every year for Christmas, and when they didn't show it one year, many viewers wrote why, and now it shows it every year. 🎄🎄🎅🎅🎁🎁👍👍🏡🏡🥶🥶😉😉
The iconic scream always drove me nuts because A. Aftershave doesn't sting that much, you barely feel it. And B. It only stings after shaving and he had no blade in the razor. So the biggest scene in the movie is one that makes no sense.
Did you watch "Uncle Buck"?? It stars John Candy(RIP) and was Macaulay Culkin's first big role… also John Candy(RIP) is in that scene in the airport to the truck with him talking to the mother…
@@VerowakReacts Ok, just thought I'd ask, some of John Candy's (RIP) best films are "The Blues Brothers"(1980(as parole officer Burton Mercer)), he had a cameo in "Little Shop Of Horrors"(1986), "Uncle Buck"(1989)
Thanks Ms. V. I've seen this movie many times and you made it fun to watch again. Frank and Marv are so funny in this. Both accomplished actors. Best wishes to you and yours, Ms. V.
I loved your reaction video - it was definitely the best one I've watched! Your genuine reactions and entertaining commentary added such a fun perspective to this classic movie. Your energy throughout the whole video was amazing!
I absolutely love this movie! What makes it better is seeing other people react to it. And I love the onesie you wore in this video! I got the exact same one last year, and I wore it on Christmas Eve.
Another connection Home Alone has to Harry Potter is that the director of Home Alone, Chris Columbus, also directed the first and second Harry Potter movies.
Fun Trivia, the actor who plays Gus the Polka player who helped the mother go back to Chicago, also plays Barf from the movie Spaceballs. Also its confusing why Kevin put carrots in the plate with cookies for Santa but I believe they're for the Reindeer.

It isn't Christmas until Hans Gruber falls off the Nakatomi Tower

I ran into Roberts Blossom (Old man Marley) in '91. He signed a napkin for me, and drew a snow shovel on it. I still cherish it to this day.
That's such a nice thing to keep! I hope you keep it safe
That’s actually really sweet.
"Old Man" Marley the South Bend Shovel Slayer. That's legendary
He was also in Close Encounters of The Third Kind."

That smile he gave Kevin was perfect lol
Wallace Wells?!?!

Romulus Roy himself
Macaulay Culkin was ten years old at the time this movie was released. I think he was awesome to be front and center for a huge part of the movie.

John Williams is so iconic, you can recognise his music immediately!
It really is, he is just phenomenal 😍

Yes!! 😀

Almost perfect for Christmas in July then!
Yes, it’s weird how Home Alone was a huge hit but Christmas Story wasn’t… it didn’t become popular until years later
Home alone is an all time classic and even here in Europe (Germany) it belongs to Christmas culture, watching it with the family☺️
There's a very interesting making of - documentary in Netflix about this movie.
Cool Outfit😉
This has to be in my top 5 of rewatched movies over the course of my life
The real question is, how many times do you watch it each Christmas? lol
@@VerowakReacts Lol, I’ve probably seen it enough times for a lifetime of Christmases
I was the same age as Kevin (8) when this movie came out, and I was really into the history of US Presidents. My impression of Old Man Marley was that he looked like Benjamin Harrison, who was the US President from 1889 to 1893.
The carrots are for the reindeer. We do this in England but we also put a mince pie aswell, but instead of milk we usually put alcohol out for Father Christmas/Santa. The 2nd one is good aswell, it goes downhill after that.
You definitely should watch Home Alone 2 now
Also the actor who plays Marv is terrified of spiders so that was a actual scream
That scream sounded very different from all the rest!
Yeah but he wasn’t really screaming. The scream was added in later, because they thought he would’ve scared the spider
@@nsasupporter7557I completely forgot that they added that in later
And you can briefly see Joe Pesci's stunt double for a few seconds when he flips over the wire before Kevin gets to the spider. Also, fun fact, someone in the crew actually painted the BB that shot Marv in the face. Also, the scene where Harry and Marv almost hit Kevin with their truck was filmed in reverse. Kinda like a Coldplay - The Scientist, kinda thing.
@@OmegaS-117 What I wanna know is what happened to the tarantula… We never see it again after that scene
Holiday classic!
7:14 - Yes, the miscount and the fact that when they're mopping up the spillage caused by Kevin and Buzz in the kitchen the night before. Kevin's dad throws away Kevin's ticket without realising it.
The second one is just as good. Maybe even better. Definitely worth watching.
I totally forgot that John Candy was in this movie. ❤ He was the best.
This was my first time seeing him in a movie lol I'll have to check out his other stuff
'Goin' on a trip?' as said to Rory Culkin, Mac's little brother...
It's two families preparing to travel to Paris for Christmas. Uncle, aunt cousins are at the house. Kevin's family lives at the house in a Chicago suburb. Most of John Hughes' films are set in and around Chicago.
The scene in the church is preparation for Midnight Mass. People don't typically arrive for Midnight Mass until 10pm. Kevin has to return home by 9pm so he cannot stay for Midnight Mass.
Amazing reaction. So great to see someone enjoy it as much as an adult as some of us have since we were Kevin's age.
I can't imagine how amazing it would be to see this as a kid :D
A fun series of movies. Your laughter is infectious and fun to watch. Love your expressions and comments. It would be cool to see you react to more of them.
John Williams is a musical genius. He has done many epic films with even more epic scores. There is no Spielberg without John Williams.
This was a lot of fun to watch for the millionth time, but along with you ❤ Some ninja was cutting onions in my bed when the church scene happened, I don't know why!
Also, cute onesie!
Absolutely one of my favorite christmas movies. Kevin's resourcefulness was an inspiration as a kid. Well, his and MacGyver's.
As a former latchkey kid, I'd say that Kevin's independence is completely realistic.
I think it's great that kids saw Kevin be so independent and resourceful, it definitely helps kids want to be more like that
I had gotten my first car right around the time this came out. I think this is the first movie I drove myself to see. I went by myself to a late evening showing on a Friday or Saturday night. I loved it.
Home Alone! I love your fuzzy outfit.
Thank you, it's a super comfy onesie!! :D
Cannot wait until you watch part 2. 🥰
Home Alone, The Sandlot, and The Goonies, everyone should see these movies at least once. They are all iconic.
Yes!
"Baby's Day Out" is a John Hughes classic that most people have never heard of, but I think it's one of his funniest.
I second that film. Very underrated and very funny.
That scream from Marv when Kevin puts the tarantula on his face 💀
It’s even more epic in the second one
They added the scream in post; Marv made the face without making any noise so they wouldn't scare the tarantula! It's so precious!
I loved this reaction! I laughed along with you. Now onto the next Home Alone!
There was only a few people at the church when Kevin talks with the old man because its just rehearsal for the midnight mass &/ or the Christmas day mass.
Absolutely love the onesie! I think we need you in costume for every film now 😂
That would be so fun!! 😁
love the outfit! so cute. A Christmas tradition. thanks a bunch. Scrooged with Bill Murray is a great classic
End tears me up every time!!
It's so heartwarming! 🥰
John Williams did the score for Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones & the Christopher Reeve Superman movie.
But Chris Colombus, the director of this movie & the 2nd movie, did however direct the 1st & 2nd Harry Potter movies. He also wrote the script for Gremlins (definitely recommend that one, also a classic Christmas movie. Also recommend Gremlins 2)
Hope you do Home Alone 2, the others you can skip.
Fuller is played by Mac's brother Kieran, who also became an actor when he got older. Among the roles he did was playing the gay roommate in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
Come on, Vero, John Candy was your country's national treasure ;) =)
The kid playing Fuller is Macaulay Culkin’s younger brother, Kieran Culkin, who is still acting today.
kevin really "grew up" during the run time of the movie. he was "forced" to grow up to shop for groceries, do laundry, and even defend his house from Harry and Marv. He grew from being a bratty kid at the beginning of the movie, to taking on and accepting more responsibility by the end of the film.

@@VerowakReacts true. 😂
@@3DJapan his scream from the pigeons in the second one was even more epic
Did you watch "Uncle Buck"?? It stars John Candy(RIP) and was Macaulay Culkin's first big role… also John Candy(RIP) is in that scene in the airport to the truck with him talking to the mother…
Never heard of Uncle Buck until today lol This was my first John Candy film, as well as first Macaulay Culkin film
@@VerowakReacts Ok, just thought I'd ask, some of John Candy's (RIP) best films are "The Blues Brothers"(1980(as parole officer Burton Mercer)), he had a cameo in "Little Shop Of Horrors"(1986), "Uncle Buck"(1989)
Always happy to see your reactions. I remember watching this movie as a kid. One of my favorites.
I REALLY hope you react to Home Alone 2 as well! If you loved the first one, you'll love the second!
Thanks Ms. V. I've seen this movie many times and you made it fun to watch again. Frank and Marv are so funny in this. Both accomplished actors. Best wishes to you and yours, Ms. V.
Fuller is played by Kieran Culkin
I loved your reaction to this classic family movie. I hope there will be a reaction vid for the sequel.
Can’t wait to see your reaction to a specific scene in Home Alone 2, that’ll tell me a lot about you.
Uhm... I don't even know what you're talking about.
What scene are you referring to
@@nsasupporter7557 When Kevin asks someone for directions, I won’t say anything more, I don’t want to spoil it.
@@andreshernandez1180 ohhh! Gotcha 😉🙂👍
@@andreshernandez11801 thing I noticed is the only person who was nice to Kevin or at least decent to him was his aunt which was Frank’s wife
Fun fact, stuntmen call the fall that Harry did off the front steps the "Home Alone Fall".
I loved your reaction video - it was definitely the best one I've watched! Your genuine reactions and entertaining commentary added such a fun perspective to this classic movie. Your energy throughout the whole video was amazing!
Aww thank you so much!! I had a blast watching it 🥰
@@VerowakReacts it's obvious from the video that you enjoyed watching it, if you haven't watched it, watch Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
42:28 Cookies for Santa and the carrots are for his reindeer!
I absolutely love this movie! What makes it better is seeing other people react to it. And I love the onesie you wore in this video! I got the exact same one last year, and I wore it on Christmas Eve.
Definitely need home alone 2 reaction
Another connection Home Alone has to Harry Potter is that the director of Home Alone, Chris Columbus, also directed the first and second Harry Potter movies.
great reaction! Make sure to watch the second one, it's just as good, if not better!
literally the best Xmas movie out there
John Williams did do the first 2 or 3 Harry Potters I think.
Home Alone was so popular when it first came out that it stayed in theaters for over six months.
That's such a long time in theatres, it's very impressive!
This is a Christmas classic that I watch every year along with the sequel. The best part is watching reactions to the traps 😂
Kieran Culkin is also in this movie as well as the second one
Fun Trivia, the actor who plays Gus the Polka player who helped the mother go back to Chicago, also plays Barf from the movie Spaceballs.
Also its confusing why Kevin put carrots in the plate with cookies for Santa but I believe they're for the Reindeer.
Supposedly in the scene where John Candy offers the mom a ride, in the line behind her is Elvis
