The fourth one definitely was, and the worst part about the fourth one is it has Kevin but played by a different actor and pretends that the second one never happened. I haven't seen the fifth and sixth one yet. All I know is like the third one, they have a different child protagonist.
If you want another great John Candy movie check out Uncle Buck. Written and Directed by John Hughes who also wrote and directed Planes Trains and automobiles. John Hughes didn't direct Home alone but he wrote it. Uncle Buck came out the year before Home Alone. Uncle Buck feels a lot like the other two movies.
Daniel Stern (Marv) is terrified of spiders, and initially refused to have the spider anywhere near him. But he eventually told the director he would only do the "spider-scene" for one single take. His high-pitched scream is absolutely real.
@@christopherking4932 I read that Stern working with spider wrangler's Barry The Tarantula. Yes, tarantula's name is Barry. Prior to the scene, Stern had to get use to Barry. Stern didn't want to scare Barry because spider might bite him when he did his famous scream.
They initially told Daniel Stern they would be using a fake spider for the scene but at the last second, used the real one without letting Stern know. The look of terror on his face was real, but he couldn't actually scream because he didn't want to spook the tarantula and end up getting bit. So, he had to scream silently and then later, they recorded him screaming and added it back in over the initial scene.
Great reaction you two... Macaulay Culkin's (Kevin McAllister) character was actually inspired by the character he played a year earlier in 'Uncle Buck', where he does very similar things & behaviors. In fact, it was John Hughes himself (who wrote both films and directed Uncle Buck) that suggested both Macaulay & John Candy for these parts in this film to director Chris Columbus. And it was Hughes who gave this film to Chris Columbus to direct after being fired off of National Lampoons Christmas Vacation (due to creative differences....Hughes also wrote Christmas Vacation). And FYI Chris Columbus also wrote Gremlins. 😉 Oscar winning composer John Williams (Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones, Superman: The Movie, ET, and countless others) did the musical scores for Home Alone 1 & 2.
A doctor watched this movie and did a great video he commented how much pain these guys would really be in, the real extent of thier injuries and even if most would survive all this torture. He estimated if not dead by a miracle they would surely be in the hospital for a couple of months. He said the most dangerous one was the falling down the stairs. He said how they fell surely thats 2 broken backs but the neck snapped back would have been fatal. Makes you think about it in a whole different way
You might find the nail in the foot to be the worst part, but as someone that's always had back problems, watching them repeatedly fall down the icy stairs is mild torture for me to watch :) This and A Christmas Story are the two best Christmas movies!
This one and the sequel are my two favorite Christmas movies from my childhood. I also recommend watching _National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation._ I'm sure you both would have a blast with that one too.
@@johnpaullogan1365 Believe it or not, I've not yet seen it. Most people I've seen bring it up say good things about it. I don't think it'd take the place of my _Home Alone_ films, though.
My favorite John Candy movies are: The Great Outdoors, Cool Runnings, Spaceballs, and Uncle Buck. Fun fact: My aunt and cousin were filmed as background actors during a couple of movie scenes for The Great Outdoor. My cousin's scene was cut and didn't make the theatrical edition of the movie (it was supposed to be when the main characters were at the lake). My aunt can be seen briefly in the background during one of the bar scenes. She's walking behind John Candy and Dan Ackroyd wearing a purple sweater. The movie was filmed close to where my family members lived in the Southern California area.
Hi Chandra & Jordan, personally, I like the first 3 Home Alone films, even though the 3rd is a different family & "crooks". I think, because the young kid get`s to torment twice as many "crooks" in creative way`s. Great to see someone else discover the joy this wonderful Xmas classic brings. :)
Earlier this month, Macaulay Culkin gotten his Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame. His family was there including his movie mother played by Catherine O'Hara.
Aw that's nice. Interesting career he had. I just rewatched _Saved!_ which I feel like was his last semi-major role as a child/teen actor. (A middle of the road movie with a lot of great young actors in it.)
Nicely done you two! Culkin's co-stars also talked a lot about how mature he was for his age so it's great that you brought that up. For John Candy, my favourites are Spaceballs, Cool Runnings, and a rare dramatic role for him is Only the Lonely.
If you guys want to really see his range as a child actor, check out "The Good Son". With both Macaulay Culkin & Elijah Woods as child actors! They carry the whole film and its alot more serious in nature! That said, Home Alone 2 is well worth the watch! But Home Alone & The Good Son are on complete opposite ends of the spectrum lol!
Home Alone 2 is definitely worth a watch. Other Christmas movies I would highly recommend are National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, the original Miracle on 34th St, and It's a wonderful life. Uncle Buck is a can't miss classic that also features Macaulay Culkin.
Awesome reaction guys one of my favourite christmas movies ever!We all knkw we came here to watch Chandras reaction to the traps haha knew the nail would get you🤣but seriously Ive lost count how many times ive watched and its just as good everytime so hilarious but also so wholesome Jordans right the score for this movie is sooo good so iconic and Chandra glad you enjoyed just as much as we do 😊please do the 2nd one too!!
Omg that nail... oh I'm going to have nightmares about that nail hahaha. I totally agree with you, this movie was endless fun, and the score really was something else - such a well made movie!!
I didn't notice when I first saw this but the side of the work van that Harry and Marv drive reads: "OH-KAY Plumbing & Heating" The film Joe Pesci did the year before this was "Lethal Weapon 2" where his character (Leo Getz) constantly says, "Okay, okay, okay." Apparently it was an inside joke. So funny.
A great reaction to a classic movie! One of the greatest child performances ever. And a fantastic Joe Pesci role...and for a complete opposite performance catch Joe in Goodfellas!
Some mentioned about late great John Candy. He was friend of John Hughes, screenwriter of Home Alone. John offered his services to Hughes below his pay rate as courtesy to his friend.
Another Christmas themed movie is Trapped in paradise with Dana Carvey , John Lovitz , and Nicolas Cage. The Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Aykroyd is a must watch as well. Here is the list of John Candy movies Cool Runnings 93 Space balls 87,Summer Rental 85, Stripes 81, Only the Lonely 91, Splash 84, Who's Harry Crumb? 89, National Lampoon's Vacation 83, Blues Brothers 80, Armed and Dangerous 86, just to name a few. great reaction keep the movies coming waiting for the next installment.
As for John Candy one of his best roles movie called Uncle Buck one of his earliest roles movie called Nothing but trouble with Chevy Chase, Dan Akroyd, Demi Moore. Love your reactions Thank You
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....tragedy.
Seeing this movie in 1990 in a movie theater was awesome back then. The start of a new decade of music and movies. Christmas in the 1990s was a bit different than now the 1980s were even better.
Not only is Kevin the smartest 8 year old known to man, but those bandits have some kind of amazingly high tolerance for pain. Also, for anyone interested, there's a "Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal!" ugly Christmas sweater on sale somewhere online.
I know I make a lot of comments of I grew up in Chicago Illinois a lot lol but the house was in this film is about 45 minutes from where I lived in Illinois. The interior of the house they built a set in a abandoned high school gymnasium and pool to get better shots for filming. They also used the neighbors house basement/pool for the water leak at the end in the film as well. They used the production film crew at the school for the location because it was blocks from the house. John Hughes used this school for his films Uncle Buck, Home Alone, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and The Breakfast Club. The High School now is actually a police station now. The football field is no longer there but a pile of grass of field lol hope you enjoy the information Jordan
6:16 She's not very good. She counted the neighbor once and herself twice. When I was young, I thought Kevin flooded his neighbor's house, and I thought that was a bit messed up. I didn't realize it was the Wet Bandits. It sounds as if you haven't watched "Uncle Buck." I don't even want to say who's in it because it could be a nice surprise.
A lot of people miss Old Man Marley's injured hand... it heals as the movie goes on... bloody rag, to wrapped bandage, then they shake hands in church and it's got a plaster..... then to point at the end when he waves at Kevin, there's no plaster at all as he hugs his granddaughter..
"You guys give up? Or are you thirsty for more?" Merry Christmas! ✝️ 🙏 🎄 🎁 Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Hope Davis, Paula Newsome, Kristin Minter, and Tracy J. Connor. Family Affair Fact: The boy who played Kevin's cousin Fuller is Macaulay Culkin's little brother Kieran Culkin in his feature film debut. All In Fact: Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern felt indifferent about the movie's potential during shooting, so they intentionally gave over-the-top performances, neither one of them believed this movie would become a massive success. Mrs. Doubtfire Award Fact: The picture Kevin (Macaulay Culkin) finds of Buzz's (Devin Ratray) girlfriend was a picture of a boy made up to look like a girl, because director Chris Columbus thought it would be too cruel to make fun of a girl like that. The boy that was used in the photo was art director Dan Webster's son. What Script Fact: The line "You guys give up, or are you thirsty for more?" was improvised by Macaulay Culkin. Marv's lines "Why the hell are you dressed like a chicken?" and "Maybe he committed suicide?" were improvised by Daniel Stern. John Candy filmed his part in only one day, albeit a twenty-three-hour day. Almost all of his dialogue was improvised. Thank You Very Much Fact: There is a legend that Elvis Presley (who died in 1977) made a cameo in this movie. Many of those who believe that Elvis is still alive maintained that the heavily bearded man standing in the background of the scene where Mrs. McCallister is shouting at the desk clerk (just before she meets John Candy) as Elvis. They asserted for years that the man is in the correct age range (Elvis would have been around 55 at the time), makes a head movement that Elvis frequently made during concerts, and that no record has ever been found about this particular actor's participation in the movie. The theory was finally debunked in 2018, when investigative journalists identified the extra as a man called Gary Richard Grott, who had passed away from a heart attack in February 2016. Grott's family was able to confirm that it was Grott in the movie, and also revealed that he had been working regularly as an extra on several Chris Columbus' movies, although Home Alone (1990) was the first one that he actually appeared in.
@@maplenutsreact wait till both of y'all love birds check out Home Alone 3 sometime because 4 main baddies/villains 4 times the laughs plus Home Alone 3's somewhat more of a remake of the Original Home Alone!
The second one is ABSOLUTELY worth it. After that… I think they were made for a younger audience

I heard the director told him they were going to use a fake spider and actually used a real one to get that real pure fear on his face.

I read that Stern working with spider wrangler's Barry The Tarantula. Yes, tarantula's name is Barry. Prior to the scene, Stern had to get use to Barry. Stern didn't want to scare Barry because spider might bite him when he did his famous scream.

@@bloodwolfgaming9269 oh ok 👌
no the scream was dubbed after because a real scream would have scared the spider
Daniel said "You can put it on me ONCE."
For John Candy, I recommend “Uncle Buck” which also features a slightly younger Macaulay Culkin
I follow around 100 reaction channels but you guys became my favorite channel today
I LOVE this film! The physical comedy is top notch but also such a heartfelt story. For more John Candy I suggest The Great Outdoors and Spaceballs!
Me too

Just subscribed after seeing your Die Hard reaction. Good to see a couple fellow Canadians. Looking forward to watching some more reactions with you.
@8:45 Most, if not all, of us thought so too. But it’s just a fun moment for Kevin, so a lot of us didn’t mind.
John Hughes' 'Baby's Day Out' (1994) doesn't get recommended enough. Underrated little gem. 🧡

They asserted for years that the man is in the correct age range (Elvis would have been around 55 at the time), makes a head movement that Elvis frequently made during concerts, and that no record has ever been found about this particular actor's participation in the movie. The theory was finally debunked in 2018, when investigative journalists identified the extra as a man called Gary Richard Grott, who had passed away from a heart attack in February 2016. Grott's family was able to confirm that it was Grott in the movie, and also revealed that he had been working regularly as an extra on several Chris Columbus' movies, although Home Alone (1990) was the first one that he actually appeared in.
I can't believe he improvised "You guys give up, or are you thirsty for more?"!! That line is soooo good hahaha
@@maplenutsreact wait till both of y'all love birds check out Home Alone 3 sometime because 4 main baddies/villains 4 times the laughs plus Home Alone 3's somewhat more of a remake of the Original Home Alone!
There's so many of these movies! It makes sense though, the idea of making traps to fend off baddies is soooo fun!@@jaredwiggins539
@@maplenutsreactCan you guys react to Home Alone 2 (Lost in New York). It's even way funnier than Home Alone one but that's just my opinion.
For those who don’t know Macaulay Culkin just recently won the Hollywood Hall of Fame
Some notable John Candy movies are The great Outdoors, Uncle Buck and Summer Rental
If you notice, the cut on the old man's hand coincides with his relationship with his son. When it's repaired, the cut is totally healed.
