Remember Macauley Culkin? Home Alone was a great Christmas movie. I watched it a lot as a kid and I think it has some great vibes, and some great Christmas spirit. Remember when that old man with the shovel helps him? That's fuckin' Roberts Blossom, who played Ezra Cobb in "Deranged: Confessions of a Necrophile" (1974), which is a great little movie about Ed Gein. I can't strike that connection from my memory. Like why the hell was his name Roberts, and not Robert? WTF?
Hell, I even watched "Home Alone" when my theater re-released it a few years ago. It has a lot of good things going for it, and there was one hell of a kid right there. Macauley, what a weird name... but he's been in some cool shit. Mostly, these two movies, and "Party Monster". But he's always had a soft spot for his character of Kevin McAllister, and has reprised the role (sort of?) in that video from a few years back where he shows what a fucked up person Kevin turned out to be, due to the traumatic experiences he faced when Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern tried to murder him on two separate occasions. In regular movie terms, that shit is funny, but in real-life situations, it would scar the kid for life, and that's what that video was about. Good shit.
So a few days ago, James Rolfe did a review of these goddamn video games about Home Alone... so many of these pieces of shit, but who joined him? The pizza guy! Watch this shit!
Any thoughts on this Christmas classic(s)? Or Macauley? I think he's alright. I do love Party Monster, but are his siblings better? Rory? Kieran? Rory has been in some good shit, like Scream 4, and Castle Rock. I don't know... I like to ramble when I'm drunk, and I like to hear your thoughts. Especially when you're drunk.
Got any feelings on Home Alone? 1 or 2? John Hughes? Macauley Culkin?! AVGN?!! Whatevz. It's all good!

Those Home Alone movies were a big part of my childhood. I loved them then and love them now. In fact, I kinda watch them a couple times a year, no kidding. I just love 'em. The first in particular is actually a really, really funny movie.
Seeing Macauley Culkin grown up is kind of a surreal thing to me for some reason. We're almost the same age (I think he's two years older) but he was always like this untouchable celebrity kid, maybe almost like some intangible character. I mean even right down to his name. It's almost like....he isn't real or something. So when I see him now, like in the AVGN it's like, "whoa, wait. He's a real person!"
He was pretty great in The Good Son too. Also, I had one, or both, of those games and they were fricking awful.
I wanna hang out with Macauley Culkin and hear about the awesome life he got to live in the 90s while mine was all mundane and ordinary.
