Home Alone is a Christmas movie about a kid who nearly kills two home invaders. But, you know, a comedy. For kids. Well, now that cute kid has grown up. Kevin McCallister is ready to be rebooted. Macaulay Culkin is a good sport about what he’s best known for, and does his own work keeping the movie relevant. As you can see, this is a very 2020 tweet:

Knowing that the lead is likely onboard and that movie reboots are all the rage right now, Twitter user Kevin Zack has a billion-dollar movie idea. Home Alone, but with adult Kevin’s mother getting kidnapped. The entire internet said “Yassss.”
Here’s the big movie pitch for a Home Alone reboot:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
Anyone who read the tweets said “yes, please” to the movie:
12.
13.
14.
15.
All of this is way better than my pitch for a Home Alone sequel.
If they make another Home Alone, they’re going to have to up the ante and Kevin is going to turn the burglars into a human centipede.
