I’d watch that. Regularly. And then Tweet about it on the Twitter that I don’t actually have.
THIS IS GREAT.
Only Marge has to be played by the sister from “The Trotsky” with the slightly awkward bangs.
But maybe not.

Thank you Kate. I was worried no one would “get it.” But if one person gets it, that’s enough. I will film this in my backyard and send you a DVD with commentary.

I am definitely using “Which do you prefer, Home Alone, or Home Alone 2: Lost In New York?” as a first date question from now on. Now I just need to figure out what your answer says about you!

I use it regularly. However what my friend and I realized is that we are the only ones who prefer H2:LiNY. Is it us? Or is it them?

Reply

Sophia March 18, 2011 at 9:56 pm

No, that’s totally my answer too! I think that we are obviously a superior breed of people.

Couple weeks late on this but NOPE IT’S DEFINITELY THEM.

Home Alone 2 Supremacy.

I relate to it a lot.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD

I feel like I’ve had this dream. Is that weird?

Reply

Almie Rose March 18, 2011 at 5:54 pm

No, I could totally see you having this dream.

Boy, I’ve really learned a lot today. For instance: Boobs have the power to change a person’s location within space and time. (One can only assume that this was caused by the boobs.) Also, if you are a bad date and completely ignore a girl’s very important question about the Kevin McAllister Saga (a.k.a. Home Alone 1&2), you WILL be killed by lions.
And finally, chicks named Marge are in charge and are women.
I would fund the hell out of this project.

You totally get it.

Duh. We’re like totes movie soulmates and such. By the way, I have ALWAYS preferred Home Alone 2: Lost In New York. Sticky Bandits > Wet Bandits. FACT.

LOL THAT LAST LINE IS SO TWEETABLE

Awwwww. You think I’m Tweetable! You’re thin. :)

This is something I would be proud to have written, particularly the last page and a half. I would strongly urge you to raise $5,000 and turn this into a short film. I’m not sure what to do about the NY scenes, but this needs to be seen. By lots of people.

Maybe you can do two sequels, one with tigers, one with bears.

Reply

Almie Rose March 19, 2011 at 7:30 pm

Thank you!

For the NY scenes I’ll take the tram tour at Universal Studios, hop off, get to the NYC/big city set and film it guerrilla style.

“i’m wearing a hat.”

“no, you’re not.”

“i like a smart woman!”

comedic gold!

That seems to be the favorite line. Thank you!!

The fact that “crowbars up” has not become a staple in American culture and something stupid like cats that can’t spell has is the whole reason we’re bombing stuff in Libya.

It’s science really.

Also, I would like to buy your screenplay. I already have a director. McG.

Awesome, but I was thinking Jon Waters. Is there a combination of the two, or is that just Tarantino? In which case, ew no thanks.

Emily March 22, 2011 at 10:33 am

this was already amazing and then your date arrived WITH THAT NAME and I had to twitch all over laughing while pretending to sneeze or something really awkward during this Very Serious meeting about our domestic violence program.

…i went to your high school.

bravo.

“Fucking lions, man”. Who knew they could overcome the lack of opposable thumbs to shoot you in the chest? I give it five stars.

That’s the twist ending! Well it’s the twist ending of the twist ending! FUCK NOW I GAVE AWAY BOTH TWIST ENDINGS.

I feel it necessary to comment on the Bacon.

Bacon is awesome, so awesome that Lady Gaga had a purse made of it. And now it is in your masterpiece.

Thank you for featuring Bacon.

PS: you are cool and this is pure genius.

Almie Rose March 30, 2011 at 11:04 pm

This actually happened to me at a bar in Cape Cod. They brought out cups of bacon instead of cups of nuts or pretzels. I HAVE A PHOTO TO PROVE IT.

Thank you!
