    First Wil Wheaton and now Mcauley Kulkin? It’s good to see that some of the child actors I really didn’t like as a child, became well adjusted adults.

    Leave movies/literature alone. ET getting “adapted” and books being re-written is dystopian. It was a time and a place, leave it be.

    The best movie idea I ever heard was grown up Kevin is a fuckup, down on his luck, gets in a desperate situation, decides to find Harry and Marv and reprise the Wet Bandits with them to rob some houses, and encounters a kid just like him, same gags except Kevin knows some of them are coming abd it turns into a battle of wits. Something like that.

      What a half-assed, barely-a concept idea. It needs to be fleshed-out, if not complete rewritten. It’s also absolutely genius. Please, take my money!!!

        Maybe there’s another nastier crew crew that happens to be casing “the kids” house and the Wet Bandits decide to turn over a new leaf and help the kid defend the house and set the booby traps?

    I cut that scene from my copy. It changed the story not at all, in fact it helped continuity.

      Yeah the scene had to be added to get to use his hotel. It wasn’t an integral part of the story.

        Pffft, “his hotel” lol

        Motherfucker owned it from 1988 until he was forced to sell it off in 1995 because he ran it into the fucking ground just like every other one of his businesses.

        The Plaza, is one of the most luxurious and fabulous hotels in the world for a century, he managed to ruin it the second he touched it. And it still hasn’t recovered. Currently, it’s all condos.

          Sounds a lot like his presidency, tbh. Just replace The Plaza with the US.

        Didn’t they shoot way more footage with trump too (that they correctly left out) or am I thinking of a different movie with scenes filmed there.

    His handle, username or whatever it’s called is great.
    Also, do yourself a favor and watch Nocturne that stars his brother, it’s very good (so far).
