Rich Bitch: Natalie has shades of this.Protagonist-Centered Morality: Again, this is the main reason Natalie is seen as a bad guy: Kevin wants Peter to get back with Kate and doesn't want him to be with someone else, Kevin is the protagonist, ergo, Natalie is bad.Fanservice: Vera, Kate, and Natalie are all beautiful women. He's right, but it's the last person he suspected: Molly the maid who happens to be Marv's mother. The Mole: Kevin suspects someone in the house is letting Marv and Vera into the house.Misplaced Vegetation: Palm trees are seen in a few shots, even though this film is set in the Chicago suburbs.When Natalie gets a phone call, she needs someone to turn down the music. Left the Background Music On: Kevin, Peter, and Natalie decorate the tree while "Jingle Bells" plays in the background.Also, once their first attempt to break into the house fails, Marv casually introduces Vera to Kevin. Friendly Enemy: Marv and Kevin seem to be on first-name basis with one another.Divorce Is Temporary: Come on, who didn't figure out that Peter and Kate would get back together?.Derailing Love Interests: Apart from forgetting to cancel her appointment with a tree decorator, Natalie doesn't exactly do anything too mean until she threatens to kick Kevin out of the house for ruining her and Peter's engagement party.Along with the early 2000s aesthetic, the film shows obvious technological advances (mainly Natalie's remote-controlled house) that were either not around or common in the early 90s. Cosmetically-Advanced Prequel: Or rather, midquel.
HOME ALONE 4 KEVIN MOVIE
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Kevin's brother Jeff and sister Linnie aren't in this movie at all.Canon Discontinuity: Seems to be this as of Home Sweet Home Alone, a Distant Sequel to the first two films that references them, but not this movie.Kate and Peter are in the middle of getting divorced, but still seem to get along after their separation, likely leading to them getting back together at the end of the movie. Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House provides examples of: Much of the family is somehow missing, and Harry has been replaced by Marv's wife, Vera ( Missi Pyle). It's the fourth installment in the Home Alone film series.Īfter Home Alone 3 had a completely new cast, this film brought back the original characters, but they were all recast with actors who often looked nothing like the original ones, like Buzz and Megan (originally late teenagers, now somehow preteens) and Marv (now played by French Stewart, who ironically looks more like the original Harry).

Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House is a 2002 American Christmas family comedy made-for-television film.
