Mr. Hector worked, at the Plaza Hotel and told Kevin one day that he wanted to give him a complimentary limousine ride and pizza. While Kevin was gone from the hotel and out sightseeing in New York City, Mr. Hector was informed that Kevin had used a stolen credit card to check into the hotel. When Kevin was running from Marv and Harry, he told Mr. Hector that two guys were after him.
When Kevin is watching the movie in the hotel room, there is a man making him an ice cream sundae. We see the sundae first completed with three scoops of ice cream, and the scene changes to another angle of Kevin on the bed. The attendant asks him how many scoops, and there is only one in the dish.
Production
A snow machine was used for certain scenes but a blizzard engulfed the set before the shoot, providing more snow than anticipated. All of the children who appeared in the toy store scene were allowed to take their favorite toy home as part of their salary. While it did not actually work, Macaulay Culkin was allowed to keep the Talkboy.
If he had lines or not his expressions would always just steal the scene. … Tim is just one of those guys who raises your game. Find the exact moment in a TV show, movie, or music video you want to share. Easily move forward or backward to get to the perfect spot.

While packing up to leave the hotel and take an available flight to Miami, Kevin fends off the hotel staff by playing Angels with Even Filthier Souls, making them think an armed guest has opened fire in the hotel. The next morning, Kevin goes to the hotel lobby, where Hector wishes to apologize for supposedly walking in on his father's shower. However, Kevin tells him that his father has already left.
This movie was actually shot at the Plaza in a Central Park suite. The phone number given for the Plaza in the movie was an actual working number. Several of the cameras froze during production of the film because of the extreme cold surroundings following a blizzard. Macaulay Culkin was paid $4.5 million to star in this movie, the biggest paycheck ever to an 11-year-old kid.
Movies That Sleigh This Season
The scene where the McCallisters are at Miami International Airport was actually shot at Los Angeles International Airport. In the Italian, French and Czech dub of the scene had an echo effect added in, it was added most likely making the scene more realistic as the house was abandoned. The television version has about 20 minutes of the film cut out in small instances to run in the time slot of 2 hours plus commercials as the film is exactly 2 hours long. For the full version to be aired on TV, it would probably last 2 and a half hours. Kevin looks out the window and discovers he is not in Florida.
Kate looks for Kevin in Times Square and informs two police officers that Kevin has been missing for two days. While speaking with them, she remembers Kevin's fondness for Christmas trees and requests a ride to Rockefeller Center. As Kevin wishes for his mother to return, Kate's intuition proves correct, as she then observes Kevin in front of the Rockefeller Center's Christmas tree.
Kevin McCallister
They rush through the airport to make their flight with Peter allowing Kevin to hold his travel bag, and Kevin stops while getting batteries for his Talkboy while the family continues to rush ahead. As his family makes their flight, Kevin sees a man who is wearing a similar suit jacket as Peter and follows him toward a flight to New York City. In the rush, he drops his boarding pass and explains the situation. He is then boarded, unaware that he is on a flight bound for New York.
However, Kevin fends him off by a clown balloon in the shower as Kevin plays a recording he managed to capture of Frank in the shower, causing Hector to flee. Meanwhile, in Miami, the McCallister family reaches the run-down Villa De Dolphine, which Frank comments did not look as bad on his and Leslie's honeymoon. Kevin looks through his father's address book and finds that his uncle Rob lives there and decides to potentially stop by his home as Kevin thinks that he usually brings out nice gifts. Kevin looks out his hotel window and says goodnight to his mother as she does the same in Florida. Kevin arrives at Duncan's Toy Chest as Marv and Harry perform reconnaissance there.
While the film featured the first film's theme song "Somewhere in My Memory", it also contained its own theme entitled "Christmas Star". Two soundtrack albums of the film were released on November 20, 1992, with one featuring Williams' score and the other featuring contemporary Christmas songs featured in the film. Ten years later, a 2-disc Deluxe Edition of the film score soundtrack was released.
Additionally, it achieved the highest opening weekend for a Chris Columbus film and would hold that record until it was surpassed by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in 2001. It started off better than Home Alone, grossing $100 million in 24 days compared to 33 days for the original. However the final box office gross was lower with $173.6 million in the United States and Canada and a worldwide total of $359 million, compared to $476 million for the first film.
However, they do not expect the iron bar Kevin swings at them, hitting them, sending them back into the basement, where the bar lands on them again. They make their way out with another stack of furniture. As Kevin taunts them, they reach the second floor and try the set of stairs to the third floor. The doorknob pulls down a tool chest that crushes them and takes the door off its hinges in the process. The staff offers the family a complimentary suite as a token of apology while Kate decides to go out and look for Kevin, despite the protests of Peter and Mr. Hector, the latter of whom Kate slaps for allowing Kevin to escape. He advises her, "Do bundle up. It's awfully cold outside.", which she takes seriously.
The recording of Uncle Frank singing in the shower is much longer when Kevin plays it back in the Plaza Hotel. In O'Hare Airport, Peter McCallister look-alike is seen purchasing at a kiosk with March 1992 issues of "Cosmopolitan", "Good Housekeeping", "Glamour", and "Vogue" magazines visible. The film is set in December 1992 (this is established by the Plaza Hotel ledger when the concierge runs Peter's credit card).
Rob Schneider Looks Back at ‘Home Alone 2: Lost in New York’ 25 Years Later
The swimming pool scene was shot at the Four Seasons in Chicago, Illinois because of the fact that the Plaza Hotel doesn't have a swimming pool located on-site. The scene where Marv is hit with the last three bricks is cut, showing only the scene where Marv is hit with the first brick. In addition, the scene where Marv gets stapled, removes the staple from his nose, and the tool chest scene are also cut.
He soon realizes that he is actually in New York City and is alone while his family is in Florida, much to his preference. Meanwhile, Harry and Marv, – now christened the "Sticky Bandits" by the latter – have made their way to New York on a fish truck as well, after recently escaping from a prison in Chicago during a riot and plan their next scheme. I can't trust anyone in this family and do you know what? If I had my own money, I'd go on my own vacation, alone, without any of you guys and I'd have the most fun in my whole life. You know, Kevin, the last time we all tried to take a trip, we had a problem that started just like this.
