    If you interpret the bandits as normal people who only live because of movie magic, Kevin did quite well as he would definitely have killed them multiple times over. If you interpret them as some kind of alien/superhuman species who can endure heavy physical damage, he really should’ve stepped it up after the first few *definitely lethal* attacks didn’t do much. I’m thinking a fire poker through the skull might be effective

      With how bulletproof they are, they can be two things:
      Characters in a kid's movie
      Jason-type Slashers.
      In the case of the first: he has nothing to really worry about, he is a kid.
      In the case of the second: he doesn't wanna REALLY piss them off or motivate them, trying to kill e.g. Jason never works and takes a few scoops out of your hourglass. But trying to slow him down means there's at least one more guy between the next meetup. And remember, you don't have to run faster than everybody, only the guy next to you.

      Even though Home Alone 3 has completely new characters, it's still a classic and just as good. Now the fourth one is a different story. It has the characters like "Kevin" and "Buzz" but all of them are played by different actors, worse actors at that. It's such a shitty movie. I think they have a few more that I can't remember. Didn't they make one recently with a fat kid?
      Ok so yeah, I just googled it and in 2021 they made a movie called "Home Sweet Home Alone" and it has the same plot and storyline as the original Home Alone movies with McCauley Caulkin. And yeah they used a fat kid with glasses as the main character or the "Kevin" character

Actually, I've been waiting to see if any modest to big production company decides they want to take on the insanely ingenious task of doing a complete remake of Home Alone with a full R (or possibly an NC17) rating. And I have to admit, the tagline mentioned here would work perfectly for the project- Home Alone: Junior Jigsaw.

    I brought up the fact that Kevin is totally a sociopath to my aunt last Christmas while we were watching this, and he used the fact that the Harry and Marv were robbers as the excuse to really let out some anger issues he had towards his family, and she called me a Narcissist for it. Now, am I cracked, or is the, paraphrased, definition of a narcissist, someone who's overly obsessed with themself and thinks they are the best thing ever? Straight up, I hate how no matter how old one gets, the older people of the family still treat you like a child when it comes to intelligence. I was 27 when this happened, and yet my aunt treated me like i was 13 with the way she said that crap. Cuz like, she saw what i was saying as bullshit and not true, because nowhere in the movie does it ever SAY Kevin is a sociopath or anything like that. Um, hello, he's a little kid with a bunch of asshole relatives who treat him like dogshit. Just goes to show that since she was the middle child of my grandparents, she wasnt the one subjected to that kinda treatment

    Something you didn't cover is that technically, setting traps like this is illegal, and the McCallisters would likely have to pay medical expenses, as in Katko v. Briney. It's a slightly grey area since Kevin was actually home, so the traps weren't technically unmanned, but it's still not the brightest idea. Tell the police that you overheard some people planning to rob your house that night, and if they won't send someone out to watch the house, watch the street and call as soon as you see them show up.
