Got this bad boy for Christmas.



I randomly dug it up a couple years ago and found some very old recordings of me as a 5 year old that were cringey as hell.

The only good thing about the third one is it brought us Scarlett Johansson.


Didn't know this so had to look up who she was in that movie. Damn. She improved dramatically since she was a pretty ugly teenager.


Never seen it, but younger swarely thought she was hot in "8 legged freaks". That movie also introduced me to Kari Wuhrer.

A genius marketing move to make a tape recorder a hot item amongst the 5-12 demographic.

That thing not working as well as the movie and me not being able to trick adults with it was one of the greatest disappoints of my childhood.

I'm a fan of both.

Lost in New York had some great memorable moments with Marv...

You gotta appreciate the greatness of John Williams in both of those movies.





greatness and very recognizable styling. Every time i watch Harry Potter movies I can hear a little bit of Home Alone in the scoring.

Fun fact from Macaulay Culkin's podcast:

John Hughes loved him in this scene so much, that he specifically wrote Home Alone to give him the starring role.

Original is much better, but 2 has the funniest overall scene, with Kevin dropping brick after brick on Marv's face. Daniel Stern kills me every time.

Holy crap. I think I know where Jimmy Johns got the idea for their radio commercials.

Katherine O'Hara's character replaced by her character, Delia, in Beetlejuice.

2 has a better battle scene and shows Kevin's philanthropic side. But I loved the Shovel Slinger character in 1 better than the Bird Woman in 2.

And John Williams is just a god!!!

I love both and have seen both more times than I can recall. My favorite Christmas movies. However, 2 is my favorite because I love NYC.

"Harry, are you wearing aftershave?"
"That's kerosene. The whole rope is soaked in it."
"Now why would anybody soak a rope in kerosene?"

Probably like a lot of famous people/musicians who end up hating what made them famous and then matured and began to embrace it. Vanilla Ice is an example of that.
