9. The Family Forget Kevin For So Long Because They Threw Away His Ticket - Home Alone
Although a major appeal of Home Alone is watching Joe Pesci try his hardest not to swear (he had to be repeatedly reminded on set this was a family film), for most people it's the adorable pre-pubescent Macaulay Culkin and an overall heart-warming story. Its a really tight film that still feels incredibly unique (please no one say sequel). One major criticism is how the Mccallister family go so long without realising theyve left little psycho Kevin behind - travelling is stressful, but not to a Im going to forget nine months of pregnancy level. Well now, thanks to an eagle eyed Reddit user, we have the reason why. When clearing up from dinner, the Dad accidentally throws away Kevins ticket. Thats why any head count after the first mix up didnt raise the alarm - the number of people matched the number of tickets - and why there wasnt a missing passenger at the airport. Seems Christopher Columbus snuck more in the film than we reckoned. I now cant wait to see what secrets are inevitably uncovered in Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets ten years from now.
