IIRC, as a teenager, he had to sue his family to take control of it after they had spent a chunk of it. I also think he ended up financially supporting his younger siblings.

Shit y’all, I just want Macaulay Culkin to be ok, ok? :/

Kevin McCallister was a psycho as a kid, too. The Wet Bandits would have died horribly several times over with all the things he did to them.

My favorite theory (that I just made up) is that he grew up to be the guy from “Saw”

Buzz was such a dick. And you could see how, because their parents never reprimanded him!

I think it’s some Kevin McCallister mixed in with some Henry from The Good Son.

They were definitely nonchalant about such a trip. But if the uncle they were going to visit was anything like Uncle Frank, I'd be unenthusiastic too.

1. This isn’t true. His parents tried to steal his money and the courts decided it was best that his accountant handle it. He isn’t prescient. He just got lucky that the courts stepped in.

Nah, that charcter died.

You’re right, I forgot the technicality of who in the family bought the tickets — but they lived in a world where that was normal — no one even seemed excited to be able to go to Paris, just snotty and entitled.

I’m so glad I am not the only person who was taken aback by this. I vividly remember being shocked as a kid hahah like that was my only takeaway from the movies.

I'm concerned about your period abuse.

Did your space bar go on strike?

I um... really loved that. Seriously. Like, my love for Macauley Culkin has been reborn. Thank you, Marie. This is the best Christmas is a long time.

Honestly I’m more likely to believe that Kevin grew up to be Michael Alig from Party Monster

I want the Coen Bros to make this a movie.

Eh. They were driving around my neighborhood on meth, with a loaded gun in the car, following a UPS driver, stealing packages off people’s doorsteps. So, I feel some pity, but also some fear of them. I think it’s more a portrait of drug use than general poverty (which I know, at times have correlation).

Man, if only they’d remembered to add:

This is the saddest, darkest comedy I've seen in a while. I mean that sincerely. This is so fucking absurd, but melancholy.
