Home Alone

Culkin reprised the role of Kevin McAllister for the first time in 25 years for Google’s new Christmas ad.

Kevin McCallister, but he’s in his 20s and smokes a bunch of weed.

For many people who grew up in the 1990s, Home Alone is a film that ages alongside them. When you’re a child, you feel an immediate kinship with Macaulay Culkin’s Kevin, sharing in his delight at being able to run around the house entirely rule-free. The older you get, though, the more you find yourself goggling at the actions of John Heard and Catherine O’Hara‘s parents. How on earth could they manage to leave their youngest child behind? Was it really that easy to breeze through airport security in the ‘90s? Why do I still feel so sympathetic towards them even after all that?

This is just one of the Home Alone facts in the latest installment of You Think You Know Movies!

There has been a lot of buzz over the anniversary of Back to the Future this year that people have forgotten that it is also the anniversary of "Home Alone," but don't worry Home Alone lovers to celebrate theaters will being doing a re-release of the film.

"Home Alone" has become a bit of a Christmas classic. In fact, it doesn't feel like Christmas to me until I've watched it at least once leading up to the holiday. After seeing this video, however, I'll never be able to watch the movie in the same way again...

If you tried to describe the violent holiday classic "Home Alone" to someone who had never seen it, they might wonder why it’s considered a must-watch at Christmas time. Watching the precocious, sadistic Kevin McAllister (played by Macaulay Culkin) find new and unique ways to commit assault and battery against two hapless burglars doesn’t sound like something that would teach an impressi
