An Appreciation: 'Home Alone' (1990)
"This is my house! I have to defend it!" - Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McAllister Hello one and all. I'm not sure why this movie stuck, but it did. In my early youth, I was a less discerning lad of 18 years who would eat up anything advertised for the multiplexes back then; and this of course, was before the advent of YouTube. The late John Hughes was a perennial favorite writer/director of mine since Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club, but after one of his best movies, She's Having a Baby from 1988 with Kevin Bacon flopped, it would seem almost expected that he would reinvent himself as a kiddie movie writer/director. In 1989, he would re-team with John Candy with his rebound hit: Uncle Buck, which would cast a relatively unknown child actor named Macaulay Culkin who had a toe-to-toe scene with the late venerable comedian. He would then be cast as an 8-year-old kid part of an extended family in his next movie, a holiday romp called Home Alone.

Pixar Theory: The TRUTH Behind Andy's Mom!
You remember Andy's mom from Toy Story? Yeah. She was pretty much the villain of all the movies. I mean, in the first film, she made the you-can-only-bring-one-toy rule for Andy, which sent Woody into the jealous rage. In Toy Story 2, she tried to sell Wheezy in a yard sale, and Woody got kidnapped when trying to save him. And in Toy Story 3, she threw the toys out on the curb and brought toys to Sunnyside Daycare, where Lotso imprisoned all of them.
