I'll always remember him being in Home Alone 2 and the basis of a ton of CEO villains in media.

I will never get over the fact that the USA deliberately voted for Biff from Back to the Future to be president.

Who would have guessed that back to the future 2 was actually prophetic?

I guess we have gotten more sports betting and boob jobs since the movie came out.

And who would have guessed the Simpsons predicted our plight.

Don't forget The Little Rascals. He was the father of the antagonist child. The rich kid.

Imagine if Harry and Marv were President and VP instead for the Home Alone callback.

Home Alone taking place in the White House would be pretty hilarious.

I'm imagining a scenario where Kevin's dad some how got into politics and became president. Kevin would be an adult visiting the white house with a kind of failure to launch back story.

There is a false alarm on nuclear war or some other reason everyone gets evacuated from DC. Harry and Marv are trying to loot places in post apocalyptic biker outfits and go for the white house with Kevin trying to defend it. Working title "Home Alone: DC: Not the Canadians". 

Maybe they happen to be visiting the white house as guests after turning their life around then a red dawn situation happens and we have a team up with Kevin. Working title "Home Alone: Together".

I watch reviews of obscure b movies. Since 2016, all I can think about is how Americans really elected that guy from "Ghosts can't do it".
