When was home alone 4 made12/29/2023 ![]() In 'Home Alone 3' (1997) a band of hi-tech thieves have stolen a top-secret computer chip, and placed it inside a toy car. This time, they're in Florida and he's in New York, and the two bumbling gangsters from the first film (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) are out of jail and on Kevin's trail. 'Home Alone 2' (1992) sees Kevin get separated from his family at Christmas time again. Meanwhile, his parents try to find a way to get back home to their forgotten son. Kevin must cope not only with life on his own but also with the threat of two persistent, albeit incompetent, burglars. He wakes up to find they have inadvertently left without him. In 'Home Alone' (1990) ten-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is banished to his room while his family prepare for a Christmas trip to Europe. This has not been an advertisement for Home Alone 4.Home Alone/Home Alone 2 /Home Alone 3/Home Alone 4 The first four films from the 'Home Alone' series. Home Alone 4 is available on DVD and streaming. Childhoods weren’t ruined by the conveyor belt of poor sequels that followed the original movies, and they won’t be by whatever reboot Disney comes up with next. But in the case of Home Alone, I’d suggest saving the uproar. There are, therefore, legitimate concerns about Disney+ just raiding and pillaging the back catalogues of Fox to reboot popular franchises. Here’s the trailer, to see what you missed out on… This one scrubbed the original characters again, got on with its own retread, and was also promptly forgotten. Also on the ignore list is a further Home Alone entry, Home Alone: Home For The Holidays. On release, the film was savaged, and then forgotten, although it pops up as part of those boxsets that the completists amongst us buy, and then ignore half the films in them. It was shot at a hangar at Youngsfield Airbase in Cape Town, that was refurbished into a production facility. He had a miniscule budget to work with, and the movie was shot in South Africa. But still, Home Alone 4 was not his finest hour. Somewhat unfairly, he said of his work that “I wouldn’t buy a ticket to any of my movies”, given that he made fun films such as K-9, The Super and Like Father, Like Son. The late Rod Daniel gave an interview late in his life where he declared “I hold no illusions… I don’t rank with the greats”, saying he made the films he did “because I could, and because they paid me a great deal of money”. In their place came Mike Weinberg, French Stewart, Jason Beghe, Clare Carey, Gideon Jacobs and Chelsea Russo.įurthermore, a new director was hired. There’s no Macaulay Culkin, Daniel Stern, John Heard, Catherine O’Hara, Devin Ratray and Hillary Wolf therefore. As such, the movie features Kevin, Marv, Kevin’s parents, Buzz and Megan. And also from Marv’s wife.Īfter a theatrically-released Home Alone 3 failed to ignite the box office without the original characters, the plan here was for a small screen production that brought many of them back. What’s more, it was for a Disney network.īack in 2002, the ABC network in the US broadcast the premiere of Home Alone 4, that’s a remake in all but name, as Kevin McCallister fights to defend his stepmother’s home from one of the original burglars, Marv. You can read more on the proposed project in our news report here, but it strikes me that the internet has overlooked something in its rush to condemn the project: that the series has been recast before, and nobody seemed to give two hoots. Today in the world of internet ire, politics is taking a temporary backseat to the news that Disney is rebooting the Home Alone movie franchise, for its upcoming Disney+ streaming platform.
