but so was mine last night. and all I got was macaroni and cheese. and a cool beverage. and I ordered a rather fecal-based porno movie on the hotel VoD called _Craptain Marvel._ it was pretty hot.
Nah, its even funnier than that. If you watch closely Kevin goes in the complete opposite direction to what Trump tells him. Trump literally doesn't know the way to the lobby in his own hotel.
he was committing credit card fraud at the time. he couldn't go to the cops or else he'd do time too (or so his child mind thought) he definitely wouldn't get to keep staying in the fancy hotel, atleast.
And they never made another Home Alone movie after this one. They left the franchise alone after this imperfect, but fine sequel, and did not try to cash in on the franchise with multiple mediocre to terrible sequels. Nope. Just Home Alone 1 and 2. That's it.
They didn't sequel where Kevin that mysteriously has a change in hair color and different siblings. Where he is caught up in a spy operation. That movie didn't get made.
They also definitely didn't make a sequel where the robbers are actually good people who are just trying to retrieve a stolen object and the house defender is a cruel torturer...
Home Alone 3 is watchable and actually more inline with the initial idea of Home Alone than Home Alone 2 does. However I definitely wouldn't bother with 4 or onwards.
The best part is they made those to film specifically for this movie. They filmed the scenes on set and then they use that in the movie. It’s not actually a movie, but it’s based on an old James Cagney movie.
It’s even better if you apply the Percy Jackson theory which posits that Kevin is a Demi-god being tested by his supernatural forbearers to earn his glory and honor in the eyes of his polytheist family.
When I first saw this as a kid, I felt genuine concern for Harry after being bricked. He sounded so weak and helpless calling for Harry, who wasn't there. I still feel it a little bit.
The boys forgot, but they set up the Rockafeller ending in the beginning of the film when his mom said the clunky line, "Kevin, what is it with you and Christmas trees?"
That line never made any sense to me. What is so weird about a person, especially a young child, liking Christmas trees? The other thing that's always bothered me is the way Kevin's family speaks to him. I come from a large family (my grandparents had a blended family with 12 kids and 38 grandkids) and none of my aunts or uncles (at least until my step aunt went crazy in 2016, for reasons which I'm sure you can guess) ever spoke to me that way.
@@MaddBadgerr The one where the Wet Bandit analogues are actually just trying to retrieve their stolen property, and the Kevin analogue is just a bastard. Not even endearing like Kevin, just full bastard.
I'm assuming Mauler recognized the front desk clerk from the Addam's Family movies. She's the one that was in the first and falls in love with Cousin It and returns as his wife in the sequel.
Wow... I just read that Macaulay Culkin got paid $4.5 million (in pre-9/11 money) for being in Home Alone 2. And now he's being so petty wanting Trump to be edited out of the movie and replaced with an older version of Culkin himself in that hotel scene. But besides it being such a petty move, wouldn't it look a bit weird to have a 40 year-old crackhead walking around such a nice upscale hotel without the obviously nosy staff calling the cops...? And wouldn't lil Kevin be scared of this junkie weirdo like he was scared of the HA1 shovel guy, HA2 taxi driver and penguin lady weirdos? Would it not cause the Home Alone multiverse to collapse in on itself if he were to meet his older creepier self?!?
We can't have handsome young Trump cause that's not a good thing. We have to have ugly, crackheads with narcissist attitudes to take that spot cause that's what matters.
@trequor right. Commercial reasons. Why would you need to have him cut out from a home video. Where there are NO commercials. And movies aired on TV don't have content cut out, just split for commercial breaks
@@RaifSeverence Which home video cut him? Yes they absolutely do cut content for tv. You are completely wrong on this point. TV edits will normally trim down violence and nudity, then depending on advertising needs will cut out superfluous scenes like cameos and extra walking
Marv has a Lv. 100 Pickpocketing skill, it's the only thing that can explain how _no one_ reacts to him taking things straight off their bodies like hats and earmuffs.
I feel as if in any real world the airport cop would have reported the McCallisters to social services the moment they started laughing their asses off. I know it's the 90s but damn.

What? Dude just because you're rich doesnt mean you wouldnt be pissed if your kid racked up essentially 2k in just to pom service in like 4 days. Kids today blow 2k on fortnight tokens
Yeah... that's probably about the amount of money it takes to feed this hoard of people every single day. Remember the 5ft stack of pizzas they ordered for dinner in the first movie?
Home Alone 1 is a dark film with comedic elements. HA 2 is a comedy movie with dark elements. They're perfect flip sides of the same coin. On another note, HA 1 has better characters and more heart and maybe a better atmospheric vibe and pacing. HA 2 has better dialogue and gags. HA 2 is infinitely more quotable and takes everything good that HA 1 prototyped and builds on and re-tweaks that into better and more sophisticated gags. The expanded setting also allows for more possibilities within the storyline and better visuals. I think HA 1 really nailed it but HA 2 certainly did not fall short of expectations except in some limited instances.
1:15:35 There's a Leslie Nielsen parody movie where they do a bit parodying Home Alone, but the bad guys don't fall for any of the traps and just immediately catch the kid and beat the shit out of him. They threw the paint cans back and hit him.
4:55 You know. Back in the day I would have said that it's "on the nose" or "too obvious" but in 2023 having proper set up and pay off is so rare that it's a complement to the movie.
While I really do like this movie, I do agree that it is very similar to the original, just in New York. Something which could've been interesting is if instead of just Kevin being alone and fighting the Wet Bandi- "STICKY" bandits, maybe have Kevin and another family member join him in his adventure. Heck, a whole dynamic between him and Buzz is set up at the beginning of the movie. Could've had Buzz being the one wanting to explore and enjoy their freedom, while Kevin, scarred from the first movie, desperately tries to find a way to get them home. Maybe have them learn to actually like and respect each other, some wholesome family moments, then team up to fight Harry and Marv. Just a thought.
Home Alone 2 is one of the most "sequelitis" movies to ever sequelitis. That said, I completely forgive it because the movie manages to make me laugh a LOT. There are so many moments in this movie that are every bit as hilarious now as they were when I was a kid. I don't care how "unrealistic" the moment with Marv getting hit with bricks is-- I laugh every single damn time I see it. It's not a great movie like the first Home Alone-- but it's a really fun movie that I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone.
Home Alone took place in 1990, yet they say that this movie took place a year later……in 1992. So, if you actually took the “year later” line literally, then Kevin aged 2 years in exactly 1 year. It’s like in Jason X where they say it’s been 455 years since Jason got frozen, despite him being frozen in 2010, and the movie taking place in 2455. Hollywood doesn’t seem to understand math.
Kevin and his mom saying goodnight to each other at their hotel windows always reminds me of Vader speaking to Luke from the Star Destroyer in Empire Strikes Back lol
I actually like how jaded and witty Kevin was in this film. Whine the 1st films is great, this is actually my favorite of the Home Alone films. Plus, you normally can’t go wrong with adding Tim Curry to your movie.
Its nice to see DasBoSchitt back again! I consider 2 to be "passable" as far as sequels go especially for the time. Its inoffensive and I can't complain having more of a good thing, but yeah it doesn't really do anything innovative beyond that.
I’m surprised that they’ve completely bypassed a rather funny bit of dialogue: “You better not wreck my trip, you little sourpuss. Your dad’s paying good money for it.” - Uncle Frank “I wouldn’t want to spoil your fun, Mr Cheapskate.” - Kevin (Followed by shocked faces)
18:06 I don't doubt that security would have let Kevin onto the observation deck of the world trade center, what I doubt is that he'd be the only one up there, that roof should have been packed with tourists.
Home Alone 2 is one of those sequels where you can get a nice double feature. A good sequel to a great film, like Ghostbusters II, TMNT II Secret Of The Ooze, The Lost World Jurassic Park, & many, many more.
Shoot, I was hoping J could convince them to watch the newest Home Alone. She already talked them into watching Karen and 365 Days, this seems like the easier sell.
OMG! I have been waiting for ages you bastards! About damn time you did the sequel! 😂 Also isn't it funny that the people who sit there and argue about how history was written by the victors are actively trying to remove traces of people and things from the present day and the past. It's okay when we do it! And I am pretty sure by four-flushing it means a gigantic shit that takes four flushes to get rid off maybe
I actually know the man who is conducting the orchestra. He was the conductor of the Harper Symphony Orchestra my mom has been in for nearly my whole life. He's also a phenomenal jazz piano player 😊
i'd imagine it would be a more memorable performance. i think Curry would have been much more interesting verbally, and would involve using more wide shots since Carrey was known for his facial acting. it would have been a better movie, but would've received less promotion at release. it would've had a bigger cultural impact, but less financial success.
We're honestly being spoilt and you lads are working at insane levels of quality and quantity which is unheard of from mortal beings. You gods take some time off sometime!
Red Letter Media featured one of the other sequels (Home Alone 4) on Best of the Worst with special guest Macaulay Culkin. (episode titled Plinketto #7)
Kevin: Kicked his drug addiction, married a 10/10, and has a son and a star on the Walk of Fame. Buzz: Convicted of domestic violence and facing rape charges Guess we know who won that one.
They woman at the desk you thought looked like Professor McGonagall but isn't is Dana Ivey. You might recognize her from The Addams Family and Addams Family Values as the lady that falls for Cousin Itt. She's been in other stuff, but I'd say that role is where I most recognize her from.
Fringy lives where there are REAL gangs of winged assassins flying about, Sulphur Crested Cockatoos lol. One pet cockatoo is a handful, I can't imagine large wild flocks of them, with no escape, working together to take whatever they want from you lol.
Home Alone 2 was always a staple in my home. I didn't even know until later that 2 wasn't well received. It's just Home Alone again....but with Tim Curry! What's not to love?
I got on the wrong flight recently, the plane was going to the same destination just at an earlier time. When I realized and told the flight attendant they made me stand in the back until boarding was done and then walked me off the plane and found my ticket. Nothing major happened and no one was really concerned, i thought it was going to be a bigger deal but I was wrong😂
24:17 to answer your question MauLer, her name is Dana Ivey. She was Miss Millie from The Color Purple, Margaret Alford in the 90’s Adam’s Family films, Claire from Sleepless In Seattle, Ms. Shore from Law & Order, Ms Langer from Frasier, Trudy Stork from Sex In The City, and many more. She was also in numerous broadways plays. Coincidentally, she did play a witch in the 1982 TV film Macbeth.
I don't remember if I've ever seen Home Alone 2 the whole way through. I adore Home Alone, but it's one of those movies where I'm like "That was perfection. I love it. Never do another one."
Yeah, up to 13 minutes and I don't remember this. So far, this movie sucks. Like, holy shit, it sucks. The first movie was funny, but also pretty clever and had reasonable cause and effect. For instance, the power to the whole street cut out. In this one, the dad just unplugs his own alarm. Are you telling me that _no one_ else in the house of over a dozen people that had to get up early for a flight had an alarm set? A bit further in... man, this sucks. I was right. Never make another one. I know the ones after this are expected to suck, but this one sucks ass, too.
Kevin's room service bill was higher than The Marvels world wide box-office.
Oh snap 😂😂😂
but so was mine last night. and all I got was macaroni and cheese. and a cool beverage.
and I ordered a rather fecal-based porno movie on the hotel VoD called _Craptain Marvel._ it was pretty hot.
Damn 😂🤣💀
It was certainly bigger than Kevin Spacey and Amber Heard’s last box office returns.
That's a low bar, but it's also hilarious.
I love how the first "trap" in this movie is just him throwing bricks in someone's face.
There's a difference between a trap and simple assault, you can try and explain that to Kevin McCallister if you survive the encounter with him.
@@Jasper_Silva Kevin has never assaulted anyone. Assault is distasteful..... to him.
It's the Killer Kroc school of trap making. If it works on Batman, it can work on home invaders.
A space/time breaking brick that can put a mark on a man's head before it even hits him.
If they ever do a remake, the first trap in one of the movies should just be "Behold, Castle Doctrine".
“Which way to the lobby?” | THIS SCENE HAS BEEN REDACTED | *Kevin teleports immediately to the front desk
Stalin approves XD
HAS IT REALLY????
Nah, its even funnier than that. If you watch closely Kevin goes in the complete opposite direction to what Trump tells him. Trump literally doesn't know the way to the lobby in his own hotel.
They shoulda replaced Trump with Rich Evans.
Why remove him in the first place? I seriously don't understand the hate people have for him, it's bizarre.

Home Alone 3 is watchable and actually more inline with the initial idea of Home Alone than Home Alone 2 does. However I definitely wouldn't bother with 4 or onwards.
They should have made a Saw prequel where they cast Macaulay Culkin as Jigsaw, just to feed into the theory that Kevin is a young Jigsaw.

Macaulay should play Jigsaw in the eventual reboot.
Make a Home Alone sequel that takes place 60 years later and cast Tobin Bell to play Kevin.

Home Alone 2 is one of those sequels where you can get a nice double feature. A good sequel to a great film, like Ghostbusters II, TMNT II Secret Of The Ooze, The Lost World Jurassic Park, & many, many more.
Ghostbusters 2 sucked, and Lost World is awful. What
i like how they just ignored the fact that the property was not abandoned, they were in Paris as renovations were being done to their home.
omg they endorse Trumpo in THAT scene
But do they endorse Trungos?
Trump knew all along that scene would make him president. You gotta respect that!

Good. 🐸
Shoot, I was hoping J could convince them to watch the newest Home Alone. She already talked them into watching Karen and 365 Days, this seems like the easier sell.
OMG! I have been waiting for ages you bastards! About damn time you did the sequel! 😂
Also isn't it funny that the people who sit there and argue about how history was written by the victors are actively trying to remove traces of people and things from the present day and the past. It's okay when we do it!
And I am pretty sure by four-flushing it means a gigantic shit that takes four flushes to get rid off maybe
1:32:49 Thank you, Das. You do too much for us, sir.
Love Mauler having to get into the mood.
Fringy is a land pidgeon.
Now watch Home Alone 3: The Good Son. Where Kevin reaches peaks sociopath.
Oh you didn't know? They renamed that movie and called it "Saw"
The GASP when Trump showed up. I'm freaking dead.
Visited John Heard’s (Kevin’s dad) grave today, thought about leaving an Xmas gift for him, considered giving an alarm clock
I still love the tool chest doing a shimmy down the stairs, I still can't watch it without laughing.
I actually know the man who is conducting the orchestra. He was the conductor of the Harper Symphony Orchestra my mom has been in for nearly my whole life. He's also a phenomenal jazz piano player 😊
Imagine if we had Tim Curry as the Grinch instead of Jim Carrey.
Seeing Tim Curry's The Grinch light the Beacon of Gondor would've been hype as fuck.
Boris Karloff is the once and future Grinch.
i'd imagine it would be a more memorable performance. i think Curry would have been much more interesting verbally, and would involve using more wide shots since Carrey was known for his facial acting.
it would have been a better movie, but would've received less promotion at release. it would've had a bigger cultural impact, but less financial success.
I’d love that but Jim’s version is still too good to be rid of!
I can really feel the spirit of Christmas with this one. 🐸
38:26 Rags thinks you sign checks with pencils?
By the way good ears on the Doggo, when reacting to home alone 1, he said the score reminds him of Star Wars.
That’s because John Williams scored it
Thank you for your service, Das.
We're honestly being spoilt and you lads are working at insane levels of quality and quantity which is unheard of from mortal beings. You gods take some time off sometime!
I always find it wholesome when Fringy defends any animal.
And don't get it twisted, the pigeons _are_ just happy little lads
Somehow... The wet bandits returned
Thank you for this Christmas gift ; first Zack's Snyder "Dead clown" and now "Home alone 2: Home Aloner"!😉
"Not only did we forget our toothbrushes, but we left Kevin home alone too, lost in New York?"
Red Letter Media featured one of the other sequels (Home Alone 4) on Best of the Worst with special guest Macaulay Culkin. (episode titled Plinketto #7)
first time ive heard about the pier morgan pigeon lady theory. i always thought the pigeon lady and top gear's james may were the same person lol
Kevin: Kicked his drug addiction, married a 10/10, and has a son and a star on the Walk of Fame.
Buzz: Convicted of domestic violence and facing rape charges
Guess we know who won that one.
They woman at the desk you thought looked like Professor McGonagall but isn't is Dana Ivey. You might recognize her from The Addams Family and Addams Family Values as the lady that falls for Cousin Itt. She's been in other stuff, but I'd say that role is where I most recognize her from.
Thank you for this welcome distraction while I'm sick 🤢
Fringy lives where there are REAL gangs of winged assassins flying about, Sulphur Crested Cockatoos lol. One pet cockatoo is a handful, I can't imagine large wild flocks of them, with no escape, working together to take whatever they want from you lol.
Home Alone 2 was always a staple in my home. I didn't even know until later that 2 wasn't well received. It's just Home Alone again....but with Tim Curry! What's not to love?
I got on the wrong flight recently, the plane was going to the same destination just at an earlier time. When I realized and told the flight attendant they made me stand in the back until boarding was done and then walked me off the plane and found my ticket. Nothing major happened and no one was really concerned, i thought it was going to be a bigger deal but I was wrong😂
24:17 to answer your question MauLer, her name is Dana Ivey. She was Miss Millie from The Color Purple, Margaret Alford in the 90’s Adam’s Family films, Claire from Sleepless In Seattle, Ms. Shore from Law & Order, Ms Langer from Frasier, Trudy Stork from Sex In The City, and many more. She was also in numerous broadways plays. Coincidentally, she did play a witch in the 1982 TV film Macbeth.
Hope you, MauLer, and EFAP had a wonderful Christmas!🎄
I don't remember if I've ever seen Home Alone 2 the whole way through. I adore Home Alone, but it's one of those movies where I'm like "That was perfection. I love it. Never do another one."
Yeah, up to 13 minutes and I don't remember this. So far, this movie sucks. Like, holy shit, it sucks. The first movie was funny, but also pretty clever and had reasonable cause and effect. For instance, the power to the whole street cut out. In this one, the dad just unplugs his own alarm. Are you telling me that _no one_ else in the house of over a dozen people that had to get up early for a flight had an alarm set?
A bit further in... man, this sucks. I was right. Never make another one. I know the ones after this are expected to suck, but this one sucks ass, too.
