The first two Home Alone movies starring Macaulay Culkin were some of the biggest classics from the 90s-- and the magic has never really been recaptured. But, when Disney acquired the rights a few years ago, they naturally had to give it a shot and see if they could cash in on the popularity of the property. Thus, Home Sweet Home Alone was born.
Home Sweet Home Alone definitely raises some questions. Like why did they decide to make the bandits sympathetic? Why did they make the kid so unlikeable? Why did Pam and Jeff still want to break in after learning that there might also be a grandmother at home? How did none of the neighbors hear any of the commotion? Why did everyone become friends at the end of the movie?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Home Sweet Home Alone! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

The best Screen Rant series ever. Anyone who says different is not tight.
There's no comparison. All their other series are garbage.
Saying people aren't tight as tight
Indeed, Ryan absolutely makes the series, both of him!
@@coolnerdlll6053 While nothing comes close to Pitch Meeting, the Pro Tip series is cool too
@@eliben4066 When Ryan's there. None of the other ones have been funny at all. We need him back.
I learned 2 things today:
1: This movie actually exists
2: There was a Home Alone 4 and 5
There was a third?
@@Hellschwarz Unfortunately yes
I also learned two things.
1. The same thing you did
2. This is the sixth movie instead of the fifth
There was a second ?
There was a first?!
"Spoilers ahead"
I was never gonna watch this, but I appreciate the heads up.
Never seen the first Home Alone movie. Wasn't planning on seeing this one either.
@@kevinthetruckdriver353 You should definitely give the first one a go, it's a fantastic family film. The 2nd is basically a reskin but still good fun.
@@thebatman4279 the 2nd one has Tim Curry in it and the crazy Bird Lady I would say it's Worth watching ! I don't remember movies 3-5 though and shocked they are making a 6th one !
@@thebatman4279 Home Alone 3 is actually interesting because it is about four Russian Spies, who are on the Most Wanted List, trying to recover a multimillion dollar prototype microchip for the guidance system to a ICBM being utterly destroyed by an 8 year old.
Also, Scarlett Johansson plays the older sister.
Goes to show that even Screen Rant has more integrity than this crap heap.
This does feel just...sad. Like, is Hollywood trying to make us root against people struggling to survive?
Cultural programming innit. Not in the "OMG they're getting us ready for alien invasions" way certain paranoid parts of UA-cam go on about, but in a prosaic, "Entitled Hollywood producers have contempt for people struggling in the financial conditions after the pandemic and that shows in the film making decisions" way.
Jaiden: "Struggle... hmm... strug-gle..."
Agent: "It's when you try to get by but it doesn't work."
Jaiden: "But money makes everything work though."
Agent: "Yes, but these people don't have money."
Jaiden: "Then why don't they ask dad? Quit playing me."
_In the spirit of a Key & Peele sketch about the Smiths._
Definitely not the intention of this movie. They literally got their money in the end.
@@jlupus8804 They are literally the victim of slapstick humor. Meaning the comedy is meant to be at their expense.
Just because they ended up well doesn't mean the framing is necessarily on their side.
@@psychronia Riiiight, cuz sympathetic protagonists are never. EVER. Not even ONCE The victims of slapstick…………. Just NEVER Ever happens somehow!
C’mon dude. Loosen up.
Also, framing? Seriously? It made them sympathetic, unlike the original Home Alone.
“They’re gonna endure a lot of physical pain later”
“I don’t want that to happen”
I lost it there 😂😂😂
Oh they're gonna...
There gonna get soo injured, my guy!! 🤕🤣
So, the kid is actually the villain and the intruders are the protagonists, right?
Yep, since we spend more time with the burglars, Max seems like an obnoxious jerk for attacking perfectly decent, sympathetic people.
I was actively wishing for them to kill the kid for most of the movie.
@@trinaq Well, at least they are switching up the formula. I'll give them respect for that.
Well, a protagonist is the pov character, so the intruders are more like sympathetic antagonists and the kid is an evil antagonist
@@thebeavpercabethftw9604 ummm no
I've never been so happy about not watching a movie before.
I'd have said the 2016 Ghostbusters or the Marvel version of Captain Marvel but at some point I gave in and watched them.
Me too 😂
Yeah I was gonna watch it just to be angry/ to make fun of it but now I’m just not gonna bother
@@conniethesconnie I'm very sorry for your loss.
100% agree

"This kid is awful and I don't like him."
*Understatement of the century.*
"So, you have a movie for me?"
"Yes Sir, I do! So I was thinking: what if we did a Home Alone movie starring Eric Cartman?"
That's the vibe I'm getting from it too lol, but not in the funny, SP cartman way, like Dollar store south park cartman lol
🤣🤣🤣
Home Alone with Eric Cartman? I wish.
"That's sounds alot more... money"
Future classic line right there.
Quality *****
Indeed, the cash cow goes moo, proving that all they care about now is money!
1:30
I was gonna say that! 😭
👍
This is the only way I will ever "Watch" this movie.
"Samesies."
It really seems like they took this is a disgusting direction.
I might have vaguely heard about the movie, and even then this is the first time I can be sure I knew about it. They really ruined the first two. The others should not have been made.
Glad I did not go through with this.
@Wayward Winchester...Same...here! This looks horrible!
Do I have this right: the people, who struggle financially try to get their legal property back from a stealing, rich child and for that they get punished with some severe head trauma various violent acts. After the poor people are sufficiently punished for trying to recover their property, everyone comes together for a happy end.
Interesting message...
The kid didn’t actually take it though
I feel sorry for the kid that played the home alone kid in this
@Latest Obsession The message is right there! Always be nice with rich people or you get punished.
@@akikolehmainen88 twisted
It's pretty funny in a fucked way
I can see what they’re trying to do, given the role-reversal; the problem is they’re still trying to make the adults the antagonists, and the weird redemption at the end where Max is suddenly good, and both families get along, feels super forced.
Sounds like someone wrote a subversive Home Alone script, where the bandits are the heroes and the kid is the villains, but then some executives decided to try and change it back into a regular Home Alone movie but they failed very hard at it.
That's 100% what happened.
I was thinking the same
It felt more of a subversion than anything
After watching the movie I can say it feels like that happened, but also someone went on a mission to write conversations that can one day make it into a dictionary as examples for the word "cringe".
Ohh, that would explain EVERYTHING.
It's sad cause that could actually be really cool as a premise but I don't think they can do yet ANOTHER one of these after this movie
I feel like Producer Guy is in some sort of a long redemption arc, each pitch meeting he's more aware of the absurds Screenwriter Guy writes for him.
Oh my God, YES!
I kinda miss him trying to ruin screenwriter guy's plans
Wow wow wow, wow!
I don't know. I think his awareness kind of peaked with Breaking Dawn.
@@macurvello he’s been to some HR sensitivity trainings. Now they know what’s wrong but still go ahead with it anyway 😅😂
Last Christmas Eve my kids turned this movie on for family movie night. Just like Producer Guy, we were all horrified and felt sad for the couple. Rather than subjecting ourselves to awkward discomfort for 60 mins, my 10 year old decided to skip ahead to the resolution. And that's the story of how my 10 year old saved Christmas!
See the weirdest part of this premise is that I think they actually could have made it work if they straight up made the kid a villain.
They already made that movie: Better Watch Out... not so much with the light-hearted fun though...
That's the problem- as someone who loves the original Home Alone movies- you can't beat up a bunch of bad guys if they aren't really bad guys. It does not work.
I think that's life in general. I haven't seen the movie and won't but they're 2 financially desperate people trying to get back something that's rightfully belong to them.
@Bluespirit I would be so down for porch pirates getting electrocuted, lit on fire, and smashed with bricks or irons, among other more lethal but hilarious shenanigans.
Mark Rober's glitter bomb 2.0 video (with Macaulay Culkin in it, take that Home Alone 6) is close, but not violent enough.
@ELRIC B
How about Wile E. Coyote or Tom (of "& Jerry" fame)?
Coyote is kinda the protagonist, and Roadrunner definitely mocks him when his plans backfire. But he is trying to eat Roadrunner.
Compare that to how Tom is often the one protecting the home while Jerry is just a little jerk.
I think the Sylvester and Tweety setup has similar vibes.
Not to say the protagonist can't also be a bad guy deserving the comeuppance, but I will agree we generally want violence done to villains.
@Bluespirit GOOD idea!
This trash heap of a film also seems to have no heart to it either.
This movie premise upsets me. No matter how well written this sketch is... it just makes me sad.
I think what’s really telling about this is that Disney green lit such a thing
Yea... I wasn't planning on watching it anyway, but that premise sounds horrible.
It’s better than movies 3-5
@@UmmYeahOk I always liked 3. I don't know why people hate that one?
I saved everyone the trouble, it definitely wasn’t was *not* a well written movie!
Imagine the guy who saw "Spoilers Ahead" and decided not to watch as to not ruin the plot
😂
The fact that, at this point, Screen Writer Guy is satisfied when telling fart jokes, not by Executive Guy laughing at them, but because EG acknowledged that he knew what a fart was gives me life.
"This isn't fun."
I think that perfectly sums up this movie and every other franchise revival film.
Well, the new Jumanji movies are fun.
@@CaptHayfever Meh.
@@CaptHayfever Yeah I really liked the new Jumanji movies as well, but they are one of the rare exceptions to the rule.
The A-Team was fun.
@@CaptHayfever First one yes, second no for me.
“He’s in _THIS_ movie!”
Brilliant twist on a classic.
Wow, wow, wow. Wow, wow.
Unlike this movie lol
I watch the movie recently and one of the side character say
"Why they always do this they can't remake a classic" or something like that
ohhh being from this movie is tight!
Imagine if those Road Runner shorts took time to emphasize the Coyote being dangerously hungry. That's this movie
he probably was though. not exactly a fat coyote
@@godemperorofmankind3.091 Coyote has dynamite and anvils but he can't just get himself a sandwich?
That plot sounds like something I'd have a dream about, and then 5 minutes later go "wait none of that made sense"
*"Being from this movie is TIGHT!"*
Macaulay Culkin: Yeah, no.
Yep, can't argue with Mac, he was smart enough to avoid this disaster like the plague!
@@trinaq especially when the original was from the 90s when you could make Richie Rich as a good guy while today's millionaires and billionaires seem to be MUCH worse and greedy to the point that even the old Robber Barrons would be ashamed. (remember those guys got reformed later on and build a ton of stuff for the public good)
My respect for him for not appearing in this garbage: 📈📈📈📈📈
Use your stand
Poor kid the things they must hsve done to him
In the original, Kevin was the clear main character, and while he could be a brat, he was still sympathetic. Here, with more of a focus on Pam and Jeff, the kid here comes off as a brat, and the burglars as sympathetic victims!
I agree
Also we meet once again lol
@@FatThor55 Greetings, Jovan, it's been a long time, but we finally cross paths on UA-cam once again! 😅😉
@@trinaq we sure did! 😄I hope you are doing well in these dark times 😁
@@FatThor55 Thanks, you too! I stay sane by reading, going to work and scrolling through the UA-cam comment sections. 😂How about yourself?
Sickening use of 'sympathetic'
You've covered Home Alone 1 2 3 & 6. We needed 4 & 5 to complete the saga.
Why do I now want a dark, gritty survival movie about a man in the wilderness fighting for his life against poachers who know he's seen too much, and that man.. is an older, grizzled Kevin McCallister.
Set it in the Alaskan Wilderness, "Nome Alone".
Some time later he recovers, gets married settles down, has kids and divorces after his wife has an affair. Taking time to reflect, he returns to the city of his honeymoon to take stock of it all. The story is about the pathos of a middle aged man, uncertain of the meaning and direction of his life. Rome, Alone.
Many decades later, we return to a much older Kevin McAllister, his wife (wom he met in Rome, Alone) has passed on, much like Clint Eastwood's character in Gran Turismo, his children don't call or write very often. His only friends are his cat, Gilgamesh, and a local Mexican boy, Enrico, with whom he bonds over their shared affection for garden ornaments. He is diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Gnome Alone.
I will take all of that money now Hollywood. Throw in some references to McAllister as Odysessus/ Leopold Bloom and just watch the awards roll in.
“They’re gonna get SO injured, my guy” everything this man says is iconic
Specifically scrolled down looking for this comment :)
when you cant say my nigga cuz you're white
He's started using "my guy"...I wonder if that will stay?

@@juGGaKNotEmpire lol everyone uses both that i know. Younger kids don't use my guy anymore on the east coast. Also no im not racist, I have a white friend I swear.
"That sounds a lot more... MONEY"
Yeah, that's a Disney meeting alright.
haha you here? what are the odds? thats funny! I just recently got back into modding kotor 2 and using a couple of your mods!
@@REALdavidmiscarriage Kotor II is tight! 1 of my infinite top 10. Old school, hardcore mod, gamer and user. pre-Morrowind. We need some of these classics back where stats and quest restrictions/access occur due to them. I miss when you join one group and other groups not liking your character thereafter.
Gotta love how his reaction to the last scene's existence was "Sure, that might as well happen" lol
Disney is awful, Home Alone is awful, and this Pitch Meeting is great.
Mikey Day is awful
It's not great, it's TIGHT!
Disney is not awful but while I love the first two Home Alone movies and I even have kind of a soft spot for Home Alone 3 the last three movies have been pretty awful.
@@TeamCap623 Disney isn't awful. It's a morally and creatively bankrupt as well as duplicitous in nature.
@@tdegrddeehjgd
It's neither creatively or morally bankrupt and how the hell is it duplicitous in nature? Before you even answer it's a trick question Disney's not duplicitous at all.
The only sequel to Home Alone I accept is the one where Kevin finally embraces his true identity as Jigsaw.
I think I saw that movie. It was called _The Good Son_.
💯 agreed
Or Dutch from Predator. Didn't he mae a bunch of crazy traps for the predator?
Some people are so ungrateful to be alive
YES!!!
“Macualy Culkin Says He’s Not in Home Alone Reboot”
Wise choice.
I’d rather be in Party Monster 2 than this trashy movie.
Clever boy
Good for him, he dodged a bullet
Just as expected from smart Kelvin :))
Best decision that kid ever made.
Ryan is getting better and better not only with the writing, but also with acting. The delivery in "that sounds a lot more money" is just comedic perfection.
Exactly it was so weird having empathy for the “enemy” but they weren’t the enemy. He literally lit her boots on FIRE. I was supposed to laugh at that...And I would’ve if it was the wet bandits.
At least Culkin has some dignitiy and self-respect after all.
Perhaps, but at the same time, I feel like him making a cameo at the end where he's the head of McCallister Security (Which I'm pretty sure is what the film is implying) would have been great. Or as the psycho version of himself from the Funny or Die videos. Either or.
I agree. Good for him
Well...
If by self respect you mean childhood trauma linked directly to the IP then sure. xD
@@Elzzaw Damn what you mean
“He’s from this movie”
We’ve now circumnavigated the globe, team.
Circumnavigating the globe is tight!
it really is
When you think about it, it really IS tight, it makes the world feel smaller... tighter~
"That sounds a lot more ... money" - literally the single thought which drove this movie, nothing else went through the producers brains
1:35 product placements are tight💪😂
“Getting people to hate one of the most popular pieces of 90s iconic nostalgia has got to be a difficult venture”
“Actually, it’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience”
Actually it doesn't work retroactively, that would be illogical.
Ruining 90s iconic nostalgia is tight.
It's really not tho
0:53 that Ryan's "Oh no" accent stayed in my head at least for 2 days after watched this pitch meeting.
"It would be ideal if the movie happened."
That's a matter of opinion.
Can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that the big studio executives in Hollywood think that giving Home Alone, a concept that barely worked for its first movie, six, SIX entries was a great idea, while at the same time they had the whole Dark Tower Franchise to themselves, 7 chunky books that could spawn at least 10 sequels, and they decided to jam several books' worth of plot into a single movie and thought that that was a good idea?
I'm not salty about it or anything.
And that movie wasn't even 2 hours. It's this really weird form of laziness: they have the money and the rights but don't really want to put in the full effort; on to the next one.
They even stuck stuff from hearts in Atlantis in there as if there wasn't enough to work with.
The OG is a lightning-in-a-bottle classic! The sequel was a copy-paste saved by a new setting, harsher traps, and Tim Curry. The third wasn't great, but at least tried something different and had a more rational premise for how a kid was left home alone. The fourth was garbage. I didn't even know there was a fifth but knowing so just pisses me off!
@@silverblade357 well stated. I could have written that comment myself. "6th movie?!? There was a 5th??? You know what, I don't want to know."
You're not salty? I am. It was so underwhelming
This movie was playing in the waiting room of the urgent care clinic I took my son to the other day (ear infection). After 10 seconds I wanted to die. I could feel my soul being blackened as I sat there. I finally asked them if they could put on something, literally anything, else. So they put on the original Home Alone and everyone, including the staff, was much happier.
You’re welcome, waiting room strangers.
I'll take Things That Never Happened for $600, Alex.
You are a hero and a legend. Thank you for your service.
@@ThePatrickFamilyBand its not even that unrealistic of a story. They just asked to have the movie changed at the doctors office. Maybe they exaggerated a little bit but you don’t have to be so cynical 🤨
@@emilygrace8314 No exaggeration even. I hated the movie. I asked them to change it. They did. 🤷🏼♂️
@@Crow_T_Robot yeah I know I just meant like how you described it maybe 🤷♀️ idk
I saw a Reddit thread about this movie before anyone knew anything and someone suggested the best thing that could have been. Basically a shot for shot remake of the first film except 40 year old Macaulay Culkin still plays 8 year old Kevin McCallister and the whole movie goes on as if he's actually a child.
“Oh it’s something. I am almost sure of it.”
I don’t know why I love this line. I also liked the first time he used it. Man, pitch meetings are great.
Writer: *"He goes to relax in the family car"*
Producer: *That wasn't very cash money of you.*
"It would be ideal if the movie happened."
Let's agree to disagree.
It would not be ideal at all this time, my guy. In fact, it would be ideal if this movie could somehow unhappen.
But what if money?
@@driggs2109 Yes, please. If that isn't possible, I would at least like to unwatch in.
@@ericbeilmann3649 Oh money? Yeah yeah yeah. Anything you need.
@@ericbeilmann3649 you have my curiosity AND my attention
The whole sequence leading up to "he's from this movie!" is wildly hilarious!
I never thought Home Alone could be made worse.
This proves the concept of homeopathy. The more you dilute something the more money it makes.
Same.
Yup, I didn't think they could ever make one worse than 4...But it sure looks like they might've!
The most mind blowing thing about this is I learned there were at least 2 more home alone movies I didn't know existed
Yep, same.
I've watched all 6
I knew there had been 4, but I've only seen the first two.
LOL...Same here. I just left a comment about it. I'm still sitting here mind blown over it, and I defiantly want to see none of them. Knowing this just makes me want to see this new one even less now.
@@Shasgirl they suck
Being from a universe where Parents repeatedly forget about their children’s existence for a few days at a time is TIGHT
as someone whose parents constantly forgot the class OR grade I was in it can actually happen mate
at least these don't end in dead babies in hot cars. We are sadly from that universe.
Ever since I saw this movie announced I was anxious to see the pitch meeting for it. You know, since I’m not sure I could sit through the actually movie.
I’ve been watching Ryan George for three years now- and I hope he sees this because I want him to know that he’s very funny and always makes me laugh
I love how the more bad movies Ryan has watched the more jaded and sceptical the producer has become
Just promise him some money, that will make him happy again
These new Home Alone movies seem to miss that it's not about the traps. They're fun but what made the original special was the Christmas spirit, likeable protagonist and great comedians as the villains. The original has heart.
That and the fact the Kid was an actual victim who was bullied and abandoned by his family, unlike this version who was a brat.
I think they should have stopped after the second movie.
@@kiranolan7104 Same, actually...but I will give the third film *some* credit. They were trying something different. I didn't care for it myself, but I can understand why some might. Now after that, they should have truly stopped.
@@ssjup81 I didn’t mind the third one so much, they went with a different kid and tried to up the stakes by having more bad guys break into the house. That and it was still a kinda okay movie with decent actors. I just wished it was still the McCallister family, it wouldn’t hurt to have the Buzz actor stand in as the father for like 5 minutes. No wonder Mculay didn’t bother with the rest of the movies that came after, he didn’t like what they did.
@@TheGary108 Well he dropped acting in general and emancipated himself from his parents and was practically set financially for life. With his father being so demanding it doesn’t surprise me that he stopped doing acting gigs and will only do projects he wants.
3:12
The best one yet, lmao!!
It’s the “There going to get soooo injured, my guy!!” For me🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Sure, that might as well happen,” is probably my favorite line ever.
Applicable, literally in every scenario or situation. Lol
Kind of sums up the last 2 years!
That's been the phrase that comes to mind every time something horrible has happened over the past couple of years.
well yeah, it was also used to describe his roommate getting possessed by a ghost. Therefor inceptioning it into brains
"So, is this like a sequel, a remake, a reboot?"
"Yes."
"Oh it's something, I'm almost sure of it." Lol then you know this is gonna be good.
"That sounds a lot more... money!" - That line could be used in SO MANY of these Pitch Meetings, & still fit perfectly!!
Wait. So the story STARTS with a family down on their luck, and they're supposed to be knocked around by a sociopath? What?
the fact that this was greenlit by a bunch of Disney executives seems pretty telling about their state of mind.
@@xxxaragon they know their audience

Don't forget to thank the other guy.
@@Cenotaur1 😄
That BMW scene is GOLDEN🤣💀🗿😆😹😂
This guy basically invented a new type comedy. There's nothing else like it. Love it.
"It would be ideal if the movie happened."
Nearly 300 pitches and I don't think I've ever heard it put like this before this pitch of I guess a movie that's happened probably.
Fun Fact: The movie happened, and it was not ideal.
I'm pretty sure he has said things like this before, but I could be wrong. Maybe never exactly like that. I'm not sure. And I'm not sure if I understand you right, but it would be hard to do one of these skits for a movie that hasn't happened. Unless he was psychic. Then it would be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
That product placement description for the car was hilarious. 😂
For what it's worth, Ryan, I've watched maybe 99% of your Pitch Meeting videos.. (And I do have a "Super Easy" tshirt that i get comments on every time i wear it). All simply golden. That being said, i was thinking just last night as I was watching American Pie Reunion on Ntflx... A Pitch Meeting series on the American Pie films seems like low-hanging fruit. Please go for it! Lol! Cheers from sunny Phoenix, and thanks for the time and effort you put into doing what you do. Your caliber and quality of production clearly doesn't just hop into your computer when you wake up. It takes work. A LOT of work. And it's appreciated :)
It's cool that they went the Villain Protagonist route, there aren't that many of them
Even if a film is low budget, it seems impossible that scripts like this get past filmmakers. I mean, even a grip could see the flaws in this plot - so many MFA degrees and they can't find one competent writer in Hollywood? Truly mind boggling.
Sometimes feels like my writing isn't so bad after all.
Sometimes even high budget films are written so poorly. "They spent way too much money for this to be the result!"
all the competent writers were cancelled or quit because of poor pay or just walked away voluntarily. hollywood is done.
The sad thing is the premise almost could have worked if they gave it one or two more rewrites. Just have the kid come from a wealthy but neglecting family who spends most of his time in his house alone forced to make his own entertainment. He can still be a jerk at times but you understand where it comes from.
@@TheSuperappelflap yeah true. Even comic book industries like DC comics is already 5ft in the grave with people leaving the forced identity and far left politics, woke culture, Marvel comics ahs been a wreck for years and phase 4 is following suit I mean imo good.

“That sounds a lot more money” - every Hollywood producer ever

Doch das stimmt.
Ich spreche deutsch und verstehe kein bisschen englisch.
Ich weiß nicht mal was ich hier tue oder wieso ich diesen Kommentar schreibe ...
okay
I'm just way more shocked that there's a pitch meeting I missed than even knowing this movie exists.
“That’s not how Vr works…”
“It might be!”
“It’s not!”
😂😭😭
"That sounds a lot more...money" is spoken at every Disney pitch meeting.
4:39 this guy is just trying not to lose his house 😂
The
“It’s something, I’m almost sure of it”
Is one of the best bits. It’s super insecure, but the producer has such a low bar for quality that it’s all he needs. It’s not even “definitely a movie” it just “might be something” 😂
Home Sweet Home Alone proves making something this unnecessary is Super Easy, Barely An Inconvenience.
That's the name of the movie!
Super easy, yes, but I feel that all of human civilization has been inconvenienced.
Oh, making something unnecessary that is Super Easy, Barely An Inconvenience is Tight!

PG:"I don't want anything bad happening to her"
exactly
mentioned this already in a different reply. but the fact that this was greenlit by some Disney producers seems rather telling about what kind of people they must be.
LOL they got the wrong actress. If they wanted Pam they should've gotten Jenna Fischer.
Swing and a miss there my guy. Good idea, less good execution
I genuinely look forward to these!😁
That BMW commercial in the middle of the movie was the biggest middle finger Disney has ever done.
This is one of those PM's where Producer Guy is just absolutely not having it.
It's never entirely clear whether it's a reflection of Ryan's own deep annoyance with the film or if he just happened to act it this way on the day.
Regardless, it's always extra hilarious when it's like this.
I’d be pretty annoyed if I was forced to watch this movie lol
I like to make a backstory for that where producer guy is really trying to make a good movie or at least decent one since by his own account he was smart with good grades and dreads the thought of making a bad product if he's not able to keep in check the insanity of the scriptwriter...but then Producer Guy remembers cocaine ain't cheap and his dealer is getting weirdly comfortable everytime he comes to his house to collect the money.
So, in short, this is Home Alone where the child is the villain and the villain wins? Sounds too much like real life.
That poor couple who already had financial issues now needs to replace their car and pay the medical bills associated with a concussion, spinal injury from repeated falls, and... well... $200k from a doll sale just wouldn't be enough to cover that, especially after they pay the IRS nearly half of the earnings.
And the damages of the psychopathic kid's family's house apparently.
Don't forget about all the therapy they're definitely going to need, and the inevitable legal fees they're going to face. I've never sympathized more with an "antagonist".
I feel like I just watched my inner monologue while watching the movie lol
Pitch Meeting videos for sequels like this really highlight how modern moviemakers have no idea what made the original work so well.
I don’t know why but, for a bad movie: a better pitch meeting.
Well that's because there's more to things make fun of
Doing Pitch Meetings about bad movies is TIGHT!!!
“That sounds a lot more…money”
I had to go back to make sure I heard that correctly! 😂
Super obvious product placement which adds zeros to my bank balance is TIGHT!
Watching that movie as an adult made me sad as I related to the parents trying to save their family more than the cocky child who was hurting people with excitement and vigor
"Spoilers Ahead"
Everyone Who Haven't Seen the Movie, "We don't care."
