Home Alone/Trivia


 * The Danza: Alex D. Linz as Alex Pruitt.
 * Defictionalization: Kevin's Talkboy from the second film.
 * Hey, It's That Guy!: Amongst the kids are Big Pete, Maya Driscoll, Delia Fisher, Wallace Wells and Randi the desk clerk.
 * Tim Curry and Rob Schneider are concierges.
 * Joe Pesci
 * "Do you think it's gonna be an early spring?" as the Santa Kevin talks to in the first film.
 * "Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers HAS been approved." Seems like that's Gangster Johnny modus operandi.
 * In Spain, Kevin's dub-over artist would later become Dib.
 * The Other Darrin: Daniel Stern refused to go near the script of the fourth film, so Marv is played by French Stewart. And he's also dressed like Harry, for some reason.
 * Real Life Relative: Kevin's younger cousin Fuller is Macaulay Culkin's little brother Kieran.
 * What Could Have Been:
 * Sigourney Weaver was considered for the role of Kevin's forgetful mom, but didn't get it. Probably would have clashed with her protectiveness in Aliens anyway.
 * Harry was written with Robert De Niro in mind.
 * Uncle Frank was written with Kelsey Grammer in mind.
 * And if Home Alone 4 was successful? We would've had a TV series about it on ABC Family.
 * In the commentary for the first film, Chris Columbus said that he had planned for Home Alone 3 to be filmed right after Home Alone 2, which would've starred Macaulay Culkin again (Though it is unknown if there would be any difference between the original idea of Home Alone 3 and the one starring Alex D. Linz). He had also pitched an idea of another Home Alone in which Kevin McCallister, now older, escapes from jail and Harry and Marv have since then gone through a Heel Face Turn.
 * Daniel Stern refused to reprise his role as Marv in the fourth film, saying it was "An insult, total garbage." Day-um.
