Macaulay Culkin’s Thoughts on Home Alone 2 vs. the Original
As Christmas approaches, it’s time to revisit the beloved Home Alone franchise. Macaulay Culkin, the iconic star of the series, has shared his thoughts on the two films. In a recent appearance on Hot Ones, Culkin revealed his surprising favorite Home Alone movie, and it’s not the original.
Culkin’s Explanation For Home Alone 2
Culkin’s reasoning for preferring Home Alone 2 is rooted in financial gain. He explained that he owns a significant percentage of the net profits and merchandising revenue from the film. This means that when fans purchase a Talkboy, a iconic device from the movie, Culkin earns a substantial amount of money.
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is often overlooked in favor of the original, but it has its own unique charm. The film follows Kevin McCallister as he navigates the streets of New York City with his trusty Talkboy in hand. The movie is full of memorable moments, including Kevin’s use of the Talkboy to book a hotel and outsmart his nemesis, Harry and Marv.
While the original Home Alone is a classic, it’s hard to argue with Culkin’s preference for the sequel. The film has its own set of booby traps and pranks that are just as enjoyable as those in the first movie. Moreover, the sequel introduces new characters and settings, making it a fresh take on the franchise.
