Last night Court and I found Home Alone on TV and decided to relive our childhood movie loves and watch. Have you ever gone back and watched movies you thought were so cool when you were younger and are now thinking there is no way that could have really happened? Let's think about Home Alone. I noticed some things you might not have realized.
1. The robbers say they are coming at 9pm to rob the house. Kevin is at the church at 8pm but still has time to make it home, draw a colorful battle plan, execute teh battle plan, and make himself a nutritious macaroni and cheese dinner! I THINK NOT!
2. Part of his battle plan involves him icing the steps... in real life would the water really have frozen into ice in less than an hour? I doubt it. And how cold would it actually have to be for this to happen??? Much colder than freezing I assume!
3. When Kevin tars the inside basement stairs, he does it from top to bottom. This would be ok because he could go around the house outside, but he already iced the stairs so how did he get out of the basement??? We didn't see Kevin falling now did we!
4. He sets most all of his traps and then sets the rope to the treehouse. How does kevin get back into the hosue without tripping his traps or falling in the ice??? I think the order of events needs to be adjusted!
5. He is in 2nd grade and he knows where the blow-torch is and how to use it? What??? Has be been watching a lot of Macgyver or something??? I highly doubt the kid is that creative and smart!
6. With all that mess how did the house get cleaned up? I always thought the neighbor guy did it but now I am not so sure. Last time I checked this wasn't the story about the magic elves.
Anyways.. Just thought I would give you some water cooler talk for the day!
