We ran a little survey at the Bored Panda HQ, asking our colleagues what’s the one movie they couldn’t imagine Christmas without. Wanna guess which one was the unequivocal winner?
Yup, Home Alone. And seeing that we like it so much (so much, in fact, that some of the Pandas first came with a movie quote and then their answer!), we thought it was safe to presume that our readers also enjoy this movie and watch it over the holidays. And you know us, if we like stuff, we dedicate an article to it!
So, this is our selection of Home Alone quotes, which we are sure will bring you some awesome memories.
We’ve also always wondered what exactly makes this movie so legendary and came to a conclusion – Macaulay Culkin. Look, he was so genuinely adorable and witty, and he was just Macaulay in it that he became an unmatched legend of holiday movies.
Okay, also, the simple yet never-before-seen script helped a lot together with original jokes that have turned into famous quotes over time. Remember the one about washing your hands? If you do, you definitely know what to expect from these Home Alone movie quotes! And if you don’t remember it, know this – these funny quotes might just leave you laughing out loud.
We think that it’s right about time to ditch the introductions and skip to our selection of quotes from Home Alone. You know where to find them, right?
