Home Alone Prequel: Harry And Marv.


Recalling where Harry says to Kevin "I Never made it past the Sixth grade".

Harry And Marv. A Home Alone Prequel.

Harry Lyme was a lazy kid. He didn't like to do anything but watch TV (this was before video games). Comic books were out of the question as they required you to read. In Sixth grade he started skipping school on a regular basis. After a while he stopped going entirely. His parents soon found out and told him he had to get a job once he was sixteen. His first attempt at employment was at Burger King. But he was fired on the first day after telling a customer who was complaining that the onion rings were under-cooked that they could cook their own damn onion rings. He next tried to get hired at a convenience store. But soon saw how much money was coming in and realized he could make more money by stealing it. That got him fired and arrested for the first time. While in prison, he met Marv Merchants. Marv hadn't made it past the Fourth Grade because the school kicked him out for trying to put rat poison in the gym teacher's coffee. It ended up in the principal's coffee instead. Upon getting out both tried to find regular work. But they're lack fo education, criminal records and room temp IQs made that tough. Harry made another go at fast food. But got fired from Hardee's after he was caught picking his teeth and dropping the pickings into the food. Marv tried working as a janitor at a day care center, mainly because the criminal background check got messed up. But when the correct one came through he got the ax. He met up with Harry again and realized that all they really knew how to do that would pay good was be criminals. So they decide to head for the Chicago suburb of Oak park the week before Christmas when the pickings owuld be large and people would be away.

Great idea for a movie, I wonder would play Harry and Marv? Would it be TV movie or potential to be shown at the movie theaters.

They must have been the sort of kids that were up to no good bad parenting.
