Didn't look this bad on our honeymoon. If they're back from Paris, I'll drop in on them. They usually give pretty good presents. Don't flash these babies around here! There could be girls on this floor! You can't be too careful with underwear.
Kevin McCallister and his family are planning to go to Miami, Florida during the holiday season this time around. Kevin becomes separated from his family and ends up in New York City. Kevin uses his father's credit card and rents a suite.
Birdemic In Central Park
On the way out, Kevin soon realizes that he just met the toy store owner, Mr Duncan. When Kevin encounters Marv and Harry outside the toy store, the camera zooms in on Kevin's bag with the name "K McCallister" embroidered on it. However, it should have read "P McCallister" because this is his father Peter's bag; Kevin was holding it since the family arrived at the airport and it contains all of Peter's money and his ID. Finally, Kevin heads back out into the night, and comes across a children's hospital. Remembering what Harry and Marv plan to do, Kevin hatches a plan to stop them before they can steal the money. Kevin returns to the house owned by his Uncle and Aunt, and much like his own house the year before, booby-traps it.
In a long shot of the house the morning the family leaves, there is no bronze statue near the front doorsteps. But when the vans arrive, the second one hits the bronze statue near the doorsteps, which was not there in the previous shot. Kevin rigs the brownstone with traps and explosions.
Kevin - Allein in New York
When the tool chest pushes the door Marv and Harry have their ears pressed against, the long shot clearly reveals that they are standing on a skateboard as they are pushed backwards. When Marv walks up the stairs to the front door, he leaves the bag of money on the sidewalk, and later, when he and Harry chase Kevin to Central Park, the bag is still there. It seems highly unlikely that a bag of money left on a sidewalk in New York City would remain untouched for any considerable length of time. In the original Kevin - Allein zu Haus, Kevin's cousin Heather counts heads and there are 15 people between the two families. In "Home Alone 2" there are only 14 boarding passes between the two families. However, in the first movie, the McCallisters travel to Paris to drop Heather off with her parents.
However, in this scene, Kevin is no longer visible, implying that the hole is further away. It is also unexplained how Kevin is able to move the immense pipe. Finally, when Kevin first throws the pipe, the angle that it swings it implies a short rope, meaning that the pipe would have started moving backwards. When Kevin soaks the rope in kerosene, he later lights it on fire to deter Harry and Marv. Given the evaporative nature of kerosene, the volatility would be so low, the rope would barely light, if at all. It would had taken a lot longer than that.
Harry Falls With Style
When Kevin is trying to lure Harry and Marv into the house, he is seen crawling up the garbage chute. The chute was placed in a vertical position; therefore it would have been impossible for Kevin to crawl up it. The flight attendant on Kevin's flight as well as the announcer at O'Hare Airport announce Kevin's flight as simply going to "New York" with no specifics of which airport it is. Since New York has two airports, LaGuardia and JFK , a professional airline employee would make sure to announce the correct airport, especially in a multi-airport metro area like New York.
The customs officials should still check on him and have noticed the error. As such Kevin would not have exited the airport. When running through the airport, a Marine in uniform walks by in the background. The Marine is in service alphas with enlisted rank on his sleeve, his cover has a quatrefoil on it, a uniform piece worn only by officers. During Harry and Marv's attempt to scale the stairs, they have a direct line of sight straight to Kevin. Soon after Harry and Marv are struck with the large pipe, Kevin is seen cutting the pipe's rope loose.
Songs and music featured in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York Soundtrack
While in New York City, Kevin befriends E.F. Duncan , a friendly toy store owner, and a homeless Pigeon Lady . Then Kevin runs into his old enemies Harry and Marv , who have escaped from prison and plan to rob Mr. Duncan's toy store on Christmas Eve.
Did everyone get through security? We ran all the way to the gate. When did you notice he was missing?
I can't trust anybody in this family. If I had my own money, I'd go on my own vacation. And I'd have the most fun of my whole life. You got your wish last year. They do, however, say that he 'had a very convincing story', even though they never disclose it.
Compliments of the Plaza Hotel. I do hope your father understands that last night... He said he didn't come here to have his naked rear spied on. I would’ve liked to have offered my personal apology. If a guy saw you in the shower, would you want to see him?
He would be a dead man, but thankfully it's a family film and Marv simply gets covered in the powder. Sadly, it's not as memorable as the iron, but it's still humorous in its own way, especially when breaking down the logic as an adult. Landing on the pavement would have been bad, but Harry crashes right into a car and caves it in.
What viewers see in the movie is the beautiful arched entrance, which of course remains just as it was back in 1992. That said, the hotel underwent significant renovations in 2005 (at a cost of $450 million) before reopening in 2008. The building now contains various condos and the lobby looks a little different than it did back in 1992.
It would make no sense for the rest of the family members in the house to not have set their own alarms, thus ensuring somebody would have woken up on time. At the toy store when Kevin is talking to Mr. Duncan at the cash register, Duncan asks Kevin about all the money in his envelope. As Kevin is taking money out of the envelope to pay for his things he later uses to lure Marv and Harry, he places the envelope on the counter. When the camera switches back to the counter, the only things on there are the map and Swiss army knife. When Kevin requested to make a donation to the toy store, the money envelope was back in his hand. In-between, however, there is a close-up of Mr. Duncan handling the money to put in the cash register.
The bag of stolen money changes moves between shots when Marv is getting hit by the bricks. At the top of the stairs, the tool chest wheels are all facing sideways. Before it falls, all the wheels including the fixed wheels are facing forward.
