can this PLEASE finally be the year I get all of you to watch Home Alone 3
it's not only my favorite one but I also genuinely think it's the BEST one and I'm willing to defend that view wholeheartedly
listen to me, okay
stop booing for 5 seconds and let me sell my case:
WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH IT
• It's not connected to Home Alone 1 and 2 at all. It's a totally separate movie with a totally different kid, different bad guys, and a different premise.
• Meet 8-year-old Alex.
• Alex ends up home alone with the chicken pox. One of the many things I appreciate about this movie is that NO ONE FORGETS HIM! Dad's out of town, Mom is protective but is called into work and gets trapped in a storm, and he has siblings who tease him but aren't cruel. The family is very sweet but it's all just crazy circumstances aligning.

• So the thing about Alex is that he's a genius – which is good, because he ends up going up against 4 international criminals.
• That's these guys:
• They're after a missile chip for North Korean terrorists that Alex accidentally acquires (see above). They were smuggling the chip through an airport by hiding it in a toy car, but the luggage gets mixed up and that toy car ends up in Alex's hands later.
• These criminals are genuinely dangerous, and smart, and armed with the best that 90s tech has to offer. But they're also prime victims for being demolished by this brilliant kid because they're cockier than they should be and they all (hilariously) fucking hate working together.
• Alex figures out pretty quickly that the criminals are going house-to-house looking for the chip, but the police don't believe him. Likely thing for the police to do.
• So he basically says, "I guess I have to defend the neighborhood myself."
• Featuring Alex's pet rat Doris:
• Alex's older brother's talking parrot:
• Scarlett Johansson:
• And Mrs. Hess, the grouchy old lady who started it all by accident and who Alex is consistently sweet to:

as i get older and older, i realize more and more that the two original home alone movies are some of the most perfect pieces of cinema ever created
the cinematography, the fucking music. I lived in new york and it looks no where near as magical as they shot it in number two, their camera placement was on point. I realized while watching home alone one last night and two just now that these damn movies are my influence on how i chose and place Christmas lights
and i can say with certainty that its because these movies were so flawlessly made that they're so great, and not because of nostalgia...
because my second favorite movie of all time from when i was a baby is the Wiz-

-and as much as i love this movie, I can take off the childhood nostalgia goggles and see that it is fucking not great.... as in I would not sit someone down and make them watch it with me
the pacing is terrible, some shots just go on too long or are weirdly shot because they're just trying to recreate the broadway musical in the most undynamic way possible and jesus christ once they kill the witch and get back to Richard Pryor the movie just fucking DIES
you can just stop there, turn it off, its over man
but i love it for reasons i won't go into now but u get it
I used to be really upset as a kid that the 3rd home alone movie was was completely divorced from the 1st two, i went to the theater and was like WHAT THE ASS IS THIS SHIT, baby was so mad
but now that i've had to endure so many horrible sequels to things i adored *cough clone high, wreck it ralph cough* i'm super glad that it ended there (i don't consider home alone movies after one and two as part of the series) and let it be known, as far as i'm concerned:
there were ten final fantasys
four silent hills
two home alones
one land before time

Any headcanons about Chay and Khun? We have very little of them interacting in canon but what's there is SO interesting to me
ahh, my two beloveds!!! yes!!!
the first time Khun shlorps Chay up for craft night, Chay's beyond annoyed by Khun never asked and just assumed he had no plans (which, he didn't, but Khun didn't know that!). he sticks as many heart sequins on the furniture as he does the craft cars until Khun notices and bolts laughing while Khun yells he's an ungrateful brat behind him. Khun kidnaps him again the next day for lunch (again! with the no asking!!) and unloads a bottle of glitter on Chay's head to "make you fabulous enough for my presence, hmph," and Chay laughs and enjoys lunch despite himself.
weeks go by and Chay actually begins to relax more with Khun and appreciate his company. he asks Khun when his next craft night is and Khun lights up with glee. it's at this craft session that Chay goes to grab a brightly colored box he assumes is washi paper and gets his hand smacked away by Khun and scolded, "no touching the bombs!!"
Chay blinks. "the what."
"those aren't bombs," Arm says absently as he carefully positions two paper cranes on his motorized car, "didn't want to scare the kid, i'll add them later. those are just the fuses and some spacers."
"bombs??????" Chay insists again, louder.
because the thing is, Chay doesn't like violence. he doesn't like his self-defense lessons, he doesn't like violence on his doorstep, and for all that he can appreciate and even admire Porsche and Kim's fighting to protect (provided they don't get hurt), Chay really doesn't like fights happening around him.
but this is mafia. moreso, this is Korn's mafia, and Korn likes things messy, bloody, and chaotic, and Khun of all people understands the need to protect your loved ones even when your ability to do so is severely limited. so Chay's going to participate in Khun's coping mechanisms like making glitter bomb cars for home defense until Chay can figure out his own ways to look out for and support his brother and his boyfriend without physically fighting, because it's important to Khun no one else suffer the feeling of helplessness like he did.
#that khun figured out ways to support his brothers past his trauma is SO important to me <3#he should show chay and they should come up with home security plans that'd put the home alone franchise to shame#i haven't mentioned lately how much i love him i need to fix that#i love khun SO much guys he's so good <333333333#kinnporsche#ask game: headcanon gacha#ty for this ask friend i had fun XD

Kevin McCallister being Jigsaw is a bad theory. Saw is very meticulous about its time line, John Kramer is older then Kevin’s dad.
During the events of home alone 1 Kramer would be preparing for a baby that would never come.
Now a better theory is John Kramer watches Kevin from the shadows for a number of years and asks him to be his apprentice when Kevin is a teenager and starting to lure criminals into his house of death seeking some sort of fucked up justice inspired by the Jigsaw reports and fueled by his trauma.

Home Alone. Scream. Crossover. Fanfiction. Idea.
Ok but like hear me out for a sec-
So what if, Ghostface (doesn't really matter which) was killing somebody, but Kevin (who was getting ready for the wet bandits to appear with all his traps) saw the murder from across the street. So now Ghostface's gotta go kill him because y'know, no witnesses.
Except Ghostface is notoriously really clumsy.
And there a bunch of really fucking dangerous and surprisingly lethal traps everywhere.
Do you see the vision.

Theory time, Kevin McAllister continues in his sadistic ways, manipulating peoples fears and emotions. This leads Kevin down an already dark road. After a trap went too far and killed someone, Kevin had to hit the road. Kevin changed his name to John Kramer and had become known as "the jigsaw killer." And then the Saw series happens.
Watching Home Alone is so funny it’s like
Kevin’s mom: *hyperventilating into a paper bag* I can’t believe I left my son home alone, he has to be so terrified, my poor baby boy all alone I need to go get him-
Kevin: *actively planning to commit war crimes*

Travis Dermott knew that he would draw attention with his actions in the Coyotes’ home opener against the Anaheim Ducks at Mullett Arena on Saturday. The Arizona defenseman just hoped that the spotlight might shine on the issue that he was addressing, not on him.
“You don’t really want to go against rules that are put in place by your employer, but there’s some people who took some positive things from it,” Dermott said. “That’s kind of what I’m looking to impact.
“You want to have everyone feel included and that’s something that I have felt passionate about for a long time in my career. It’s not like I just just jumped on this train. It’s something that I’ve felt has been lacking in the hockey community for a while. I feel like we need supporters of a movement like this; to have everyone feel included and really to beat home the idea that hockey is for everyone.”
“I won’t lie,” said Dermott, who is playing on a one-year, two-way contract. “From the outside, it’s easy to see that I’m putting my career on the line for something. I definitely went through some emotional ups and downs that night, not regretting anything by any means, but I’d love to have maybe done a couple of steps a little different by making sure that everyone was aware of what was going on before I did it.
“I don’t want to put my teammates or my coaches or my GMs or the equipment managers in any kind of bad light when it’s their job to kind of look out for something like this happening. It was definitely something that I did just by myself and was prepared to kind of deal with whatever repercussions the league decides to push towards that. I’m not going to back off and say that this battle is won, but we’re going to find better ways to do it.”
As Dermott noted, LGBTQ+ inclusion is an issue that he has supported for a long time. Without getting into specifics, Dermott said the issue is personal for him because it impacts people close to him.
“I’d be lying if I said I haven’t shed tears about this on multiple occasions,” he said. “So yeah, it’s something I’m definitely very passionate about.
“I’ve met a lot of people that from the outside, it looks like they have everything going right in their life and they have a smile on their face every time they talk to you. But sometimes when we get closer to people and get comfortable enough for them to open up to you, you can see that there’s some pretty dark stuff happening to some good people. It doesn’t take too many times encountering something like that for it to really change someone.
“I’ve been blessed to have some of those opportunities put in front of me to really change my view of what being a good person means; what being a good father and a good example and role model means going forward. You really see how people are hurting and it’s because of a system that maybe no one’s intentionally trying to be malicious about, but until you’ve really had that first-person experience seeing people hurting from it right in front of you, it’s tough to kind of take steps.”
It would be a surprise if the league handed down any sort of punishment. The optics alone would add to the public relations damage that the original ban created. Even so, Dermott reiterated his desire to bring the entire franchise into the fold before he takes similar actions in the future, but he also made it clear that he will not be silenced on the topic.
“It’s not like I’m shutting up and going away,” he said. “I know more questions are going to be coming. We’re just going to be as prepared as we can be to just spread love. That’s the thing. It’s gay pride that we’re talking about, but it could be men’s health. It could be any war. It’s just wanting world peace. Everyone’s got to love each other a little bit more.
“Like my parents said growing up, ‘How awesome would it be to be the guy that people look up to?’ That’s what really hit home when I was a kid, especially from my mom. You want to grow up and be that guy. You want to be the guy that’s having the impact on kids like NHL players had on you. If they had been racist or bigoted, that’s going to have an effect on you.
“With how many eyes are on us, especially with the young kids coming up in the new generation, you want to put as much positive love into their brain as you can. You want them to see that it’s not just being taught or coming from maybe their parents at home. They need to see it in the public eye for it to really make an effect.”

hi and welcome to
✨bullshit that has ACTUALLY happened somewhere in the Pokémon franchise✨
-a teenaged boy runs away from home because of his abusive mom only to join a crime gang funded by his abusive mom.
-the player character is given a smartphone by and with direct contact to God.
-a man cosplaying God (the same God you got a phone from) attacks you with a demon banished to another dimension.
-a suicide cult led by an evil snowflake kills like one hundred other protagonists.
-there is an entire elemental typing consisting of abused and evil Pokémon that is super effective against everything else.
-the player falls into an alternate world and one of their friends is immediately arrested for playing sports.
-in the thrilling sequel, a bunch of ghosts kidnap children in their amusement park in the Shadow Realm.
-now that I think about it there are like three different games where the player character starts by falling from the sky.
-the protagonist of the TV adaptation has died like seven times, been crucified in Paris, watched several apocalypses, and has watched SO many people die in front of him, and I don’t think he’s brought it up like, ever.
-in one game, you can go on a crusade to brutally conquer the entire continent.
-the player of one game is part of a time loop caused by a magic turtle that indirectly kills one of their friend’s mother. Or father. Depends on the version.
-the player’s adoptive father is possessed by the personification of hate and sends them directly to Hell, then tries to do it again when they get out.
-the mafia’s plan for getting their boss back after he left is to violently hijack a radio station and ask really nicely.
-a space agency’s plan for stopping a meteor form colliding with the earth is to open a wormhole to another dimension. this plan is stopped by a woman in a torn cape who destroys their equipment and robs them.
-the protagonist’s father had a godlike clone fuse his consciousness with a mouse, and fights a man who fused his own consciousness with an alien.
-the one a cult leader chose to be king of his new religion is an abused autistic boy with green hair and wearing a baseball cap.
-you literally rob people’s Pokémon in one game and you’re still the good guy. …is there a gender neutral version of “good guy?”
And now for a BONUS ROUND!
✨shit that has gone down in the Pokémon manga adaptation alone!✨
-terrorists blow up an ENTIRE port city!
-one protagonist spent two years trapped in a Dream Realm™.
-you think that’s bad? TWO protagonists are trapped in the depths of space for like six months!
-you think THAT’S bad?! FIVE protagonists are turned into stone for an indefinite time period!
-a little orphan girl is hypnotized and trapped in a suit of armor.
-they crucify the gym leaders???
-one boy is whipped in the face with a chain used to subjugate the Gods Of Time And Space and he’s literally fine.
-a father punches his son in the face and hurls him down a staircase. The American translation censors this as a lightning strike.
-this same son fell into the ocean because of an earthquake like five chapters after he was introduced.
-one of the current protagonists is basically Wednesday Addams.
-two protagonists were kidnapped by birds and raised by a supervillain.
-two villains try to destroy the environment of an entire country, cause an apocalypse, and are stopped by being trapped in a flying car which crashes.
-a mysterious supervillain saves them— SOMEHOW— and makes them fight to the death for a suit of armor. The one that survives causes the apocalypse AGAIN but dies.
-they both get brought back from Hell to save the world, and after that’s over, they turn to dust and go back to Hell.
-the supervillain who saved them the first time also summons like ten gods and dips out, never to be seen again.
In other words Pokémon is weird (affectionate).

𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 — art the clown x gn!reader
𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬 — fluff, art meets someone who isn’t scared of him, art goes to kill u but alas you are … autistic!reader, nonverbal!reader, lowkey a projection of me and how i regress/how art makes me regress lol, also a little theory as to how art gains strength/why he kills so relentlessly as a demon, not proofread!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/edaa63278656e12013317a75000d9c18/99a83c18961f5b5f-d4/s540x810/2016c6794763c6ef3a2a1470e20d793cf55ac5e7.jpg)
a demon must feed off of fear. it’s how it gains strength and power. art was no different.
it was his luck that his appearance alone usually struck the fear of god into people. tall but lean in a black and white clown suit, sometimes stained with a strange red substance. face painted white, black outlining an eerily smiling mouth and wide blue eyes. at least, sometimes they were blue.
when he was knee deep into brutally slaughtering people, his eyes would go pitch black from excitement and because his strength was slowly doubling.
everyone who had the misfortune of knowing of his presence feared even his name. all except one.
he’d encountered many who feigned tolerance towards him, some even daring to embrace him before meeting the same fate as everybody else. because they reeked of the same fear as the rest. he could tell in the way they tried to steady their shaking hands, the way their eyes glazed over as they realized they had lost the fight.
but you. you.
you were different. he’d tracked you down after watching you walk home from a little neighborhood party, and he observed you for a couple of days. you lived alone, hardly touched your phone, typed and typed away on your computer with your glasses hanging onto the edge of your nose. completely indifferent to the rest of the world outside.
nobody would miss you. nobody even turned their heads towards your house as they walked by it.
so obviously nobody noticed when he slipped into your house that night. the inside was drab. nicely decorated but it still felt empty. perhaps you’d just moved in not too long ago.
when he found you in your bedroom, comfortably sleeping, he found that wasn’t quite the case. all of the decor, if you could call it that, was stuffed up in here. merchandise from several franchises were nailed, taped, displayed on every surface of your bedroom. sonic, ninja turtles, spiderman.
art stared at it. then at you. you were swarmed by stuffed animals, arms wrapped tightly around a particularly huge fuzzy stuffed sonic plush. the side of your face squished into it and you hummed in your sleep.
he set the garbage bag he had slung over his shoulder down and began searching for something to dismantle you with. the metallic clinks echoed in the room and seemed to wake you up when your muffled grunts became clearer and you began to stretch out your curled limbs.
it took you a while to notice him, but when you did you only blinked. art figured it was a shock response and gave you a taunting smile, baring ugly teeth. your eyebrows knitted together while you sat up, but still you said nothing. not even a scream.
art rose to his feet, towering over you even on your hip-high mattress. in his hand, he had a hefty tool that glinted in the moonlight. fear should have been radiating off of you by now, but that rush he was expecting never came. perhaps you thought you were dreaming.
but as your eyes scanned him from top to bottom, you seemed to accept it as reality. even as you reached out and gingerly tapped his bloodied, gloved hand with the tip of your finger. you didn’t question it.
art hesitated. but only because he doubted he would be strong enough to take your head off with one clean swipe. he wasn’t even close to half of his full strength yet. why was this taking so long?
you turned to the side, searching for something in the sea of stuffies you were haloed with just moments earlier. plucking a smaller one out of the heap, you offered it to the mysterious clown at the side of your bed. it was one of your lesser favorites because you didn’t want him to get it dirty with his white-stained-red gloves. a little fuzzy bee you got from a museum years back.
art pointed at himself, and you nodded with a gentle smile. you half thought that was what he wanted. some strange stuffed animal reaper.
he reached for it, and the cleaver in his hand hit the ground with a thud that made you flinch and cover your ears. almost instinctively, you leaned towards him.
you weren’t scared of the knife itself but the loud noise. art was baffled that somebody could look to him for protection. had you any idea who he was? the miles county clown, was the name every tv within a 50 mile radius was echoing daily because of him.
well, you probably actually didn’t. in the days he watched you, you neglected to turn on the news or scroll through social media. was that why you weren’t scared of him?
either way, his palm found the top of your head, awkwardly patting it with a force that told you he was also trying to push you away. you peered up at him with a straight lipped smile, and gently grabbed the wrist of the hand on your head. he tensed, shocked, but allowed you to flip his palm upwards, watching as you ran your finger over his red stained glove.
you spelled out your name, letter by letter, and pointed to yourself. you also couldn’t speak. or you couldn’t at the moment.
art could only tilt his head at you, genuinely frowning because his presence wasn’t scaring you shitless. he was more confused than anything else.
you gestured towards him and handed him your own palm. he was to etch his name onto your skin.
it took him a second to do it, letting his hand cradle yours while he dragged his finger across your palm. A-R-T.
registering the name, you nodded up at him. it was quite fitting for him, you thought.
the clown grinned and waved your own stuffed animal in front of your face before booping your nose with it. he found he liked the sound of your giggle, which brought him both comfort and unease.
you were sad when he left so quickly, dropping your stuffed bee into your lap and grabbing his garbage bag. he put a finger to his lips and wagged his fingers at you before retreating back into your hallway. the sound of your comforter shuffling made him pause and he found you bent over, picking his cleaver up off of your floor.
you sheepishly held the heavy handle out to him.
you were quite tall. still significantly shorter than him, but taller than he was expecting. wearing a slim fitting tank top and some athletic shorts. you even had some tattoos on your arms and on your thighs. things he hadn’t seen past your sweaters and jeans.
he took the cleaver and prepared to take his leave, but was stunned when you suddenly wrapped your arms around him. for a moment, he was the scared one. but he soon realized that you were only hugging him.
“thank you,” you whispered, so softly and shakily he almost missed it over the buzz of your electric fan. still, you held no fear of him.
you smiled when his arms briefly closed around you.
and then he was gone.

Penelope could easily be painted as the damsel yearning for her lover, the woman without much agency waiting for her husband to come home (which of course we all know she isn't, she is a literal and metaphorical queen), and in a lesser story*) she might have been cast into that stereotype. I think that is why I love her almost yelling "You're mine" at Odysseus in WYFILWMA.
It is so possessive and decisive, ruling out any "buts". It perfectly underlines her steadfastness, her loyalty, her agency. She claims Odysseus as hers without question once she knows it is really him, that he is finally back home. She is seemingly offended that Odysseus even suggests that she might not accept him after how much he has changed. (She will make her own mind up about that, thank you very much, and said mind has been made up for 20 years btw)
It is not only that Odysseus has come home and now she chooses him. No, she has been choosing him over and over and over for the past 20 years with every action she took. It is not him coming back that now puts her in the position to choose him - it only reveals that choice, that there never was another choice other than Odysseus. Which leads me to my honorable mention:
Ody: "[...] You’ve been waiting for love."
Pen: "I've been waiting for you."
Penelope definitely had a surplus of suitors (108) and even if their motives might have been questionable, she could have easily found a new husband if that was what she wanted, maybe even one that genuinely loved her. But Penelope's love is Odysseus. Love for her is synonymous with him. No one else is even worth considering, she would rather be alone or even die before she gives any other man the time of day.
tldr; I love love LOVE the wording in WYFILWMA, how it shows how Penelope is just not taking this shit from her husband. She knows what she wants and that is Odysseus, even if it is not the original model but the slightly banged up version, the heavily traumatized, now with grey hairs probably, war criminal, ruthless god torturer version of her husband.
Because he is still her husband, goddamn it.
This might very well not make much sense bc I am insane over them currently
*) "lesser story" is not referring to the odyssey or saying epic is better than the odyssey, I mean to compare them both to any completely different work (or franchise if you will) that does not give characters agency where they should have it
#pen is like “you are mine whether you like it or not”#“nothing you can fuckin do about it you are mine you bastard”#also. i imagine the question of “what kind of things did you do” is more akin to a#*sighs* “go on tell me what you did” *knows it will not have any bearings on her accepting him fully*#maybe even a cheeky eyeroll#“you are so incredibly wrong if you think I would wait for you all these years”#“and not fully embrace you as you are now - now that I have you back at last”#also i would not rule it out that pen kinda loves how he fought tooth and nail to get back home to them#not what it cost him (them) but his iron will to be with his wife and son again#even if that means he has to brutalitze a god over it and sacrifice all his crew/friends/comrades#“the man that he is” *lip bite* - pen probably#epic the musical#the ithaca saga#epic the ithaca saga#epic odysseus#odysseus#penelope#epic penelope#odypen#your honor I love them#they are so so perfect for each other#they so deserve each other (affectionate)
