One of England's finest

See him in the classic film Clue playing the principal role of Wadsworth- he is superb.

He is literally the only thing I can remember about this movie.

@@Knappa22 while Tim Curry is AMAZING in Clue (the whole cast was really)... his most iconic role is Frank N Furter in Rocky Horror

He deserved so much more😢

Well it is true. ^^ He was only doing his job. lol

@@Yabuturtle poorly but yeah

Although I expect he had a change of heart about Kevin the next morning when that truck load of presents arrived as a way of thank you from Mr Duncan regarding the robbery.

@@Yabuturtle His article on the Villains wiki also got deleted with the reason "not a villain just a jerk doing his job".

He's not a villain, but I'd say he qualifies as at least a minor antagonist in that he is an opposing force to the main character. On the morality scale, I'd say he'd be solidly Lawful Neutral.

Right?

@Qasim Hussain probably his smile

A Tim Curry Grinch? Never thought of that.

@Qasim Hussain He can be intimidating yet funny. Remember that he was also Pennywise first

You're all just saying that cuz the video uploader added that split second picture of the Grinch......

Where is he now? Wonder what he thinks, when he looks back at this movie- he's barely out of a vegetable state.

@@pauljohnson6019 he had a stroke, cut him some slack. Jeez dude

i can’t believe it’s only 5 minutes sometimes. when you consider the whole duration of the movie which is around 1 hour 40 minutes or so, it seems to be so much more screen time for him especially because he comes one of the other (kind of) antagonists in the movie.

Not "just", also the script's, the filmmakers', the fact that he was the main antagonist where Kevin was staying...

Tim Curry is THE MAN.

I think its even better, it really dials the whole thing up to 11

It has tim curry what more do you need?

Im from NY so i have to like it more…..and do

Same! I actually think the plot of this one is much more intriguing and the booby traps are better, though the first one has more memorable quotes

I like it even more

@ems10824 I think so too!!!!🤣

That's the part where he became The Grinch

Makes you wonder what could've been sometimes...

Oh my god, yes. Absolutely perfect execution.

@@5634TY Because he's Tim Curry!

Agree💯💯💯

with the way he is and the way the plot confuses the character this is tim curry's best role

Yes!!!

@@cabezadepija7318 hard choice between Home Alone 2 Tim Curry and The Hunt for Red October Dr. Yevgeniy Petrov played by Tim Curry.

Remember Him in Three Musketeers 😂

He is so not used to having to get pizza for customers

PEET-ZAH

Pronunciation*

1:47 😂😂😂

It: WOO-HAH! WOO-HAH!

he IS a great side villain

He should have been THE MAIN VILLAIN....

He played a very good Night Stalker in Criminal Minds.

Anyone played by Tim Curry is a great villain in general

@Wai Keong Lim The only movies I have seen that Tim Curry played as a villain were "Annie" and "Muppet Treasure Island."

and the way he said "pi-zzah"

That’s the way we show our appreciation to Tim Curry 😅😊

It's the head tilt that does it for me 🤣🤣🤣

Smashing

Same and the way he said Pizza 😂😂

john williams is a has been

That’s the musician that did the Star Wars theme, am I right? I had no clue he did this.

He manages to capture the essence of the character in its pompous slinkiness, I love it

@@DrYeet2704 He also did the theme for Munich...Absolutely beautiful.

@@DrYeet2704 he is a giant in the industry. He also did Indiana Jones, jurrasic park and Harry Potter, among many more. He has like 40 something Oscars and Grammies and stuff

Serh, this is the conciehhhge

It’s a ridiculous premise for a sequel, but once you get past that, it’s just as enjoyable as the first movie, even more so at times.

The problem was that it wasn't bringing anything new. And to just have Harry and Marv return feels very lazy. Honestly, why couldn't the concierge (Mr Hector in the script), Cedric, and the Desk Clerk (Hester) be the villains? They'd be a much better threat for Kevin since they're in a much higher position of power and they're word would be more believable than a 10-year old with a "STOLEN CREDIT CARD" (sorry, just had to....). I mentioned in another comment that an easy way to fix this is by having the 3 of them conning their way into getting their jobs. They plan to scam the hotel out of everyone’s money, and instead of the Toy Store doing the donation, it’s the Plaza. Kevin, however catches on to what they're doing and this can be a perfect set-up for Kevin to use his tape recorder. When the Concierge catches on to what Kevin's up to and that he's no Peter McCallister, and when Kevin attempts to escape the place, he realizes he can't just go and let those three thieves get away with what they're doing, so he creates a trap to lure them to the cops and the climax has him being confronted by the Concierge where he confesses what he's going to do, and that, "Nobody shall believe a brat with a stolen credit card. It's my word against yours." to which Kevin reveals the tape recording with the confession of what the three were going to do with the Plaza's money as the cops finally arrive, maybe even the boss of the place showing up, to confront them. The rest of the movie continues from there, and we can still keep the final scene where Kevin is left with a large room service bill (except it's not Cedric who hands it to Buzz...).

@@osmanyousif7849 honestly I don't care that it's so similar to the first one. If rewatching the original is fun (and it is), rewatching it with the set pieces changed up and new traps and stuff is valid too

@@nthgth , such a shame we’re never gonna get and actual third good sequel. Like can you imagine a sequel with an adult Kevin getting on the wrong flight and ending up in the Amazon jungle (maybe even making a joke about the confusion between the streaming Amazon people know about…)? The grown dude probably goes full Rambo on the villains.

You can see he was very dishonest 😂

LOL he carried half the movie.

Clearly Kevin was in the wrong and I know its a movie but 10 years old is old enough to know better than to do what he did. My dad would've beat the living piss out of me if I even laid eyes on his credit card let alone stole it. I would've woken up the next morning with black and blues all over my body.

Bathroom part was weird

​@@bryanrizzo9377it's not like kevin had much of a choice. He was in a huge city all by himself and it's not like he had a cell phone to call his dad with. I agree he should've explained his situation and that it was his dad's credit card, but then there wouldn't be a movie and plus Kevin's dad was so mad abt all the money he spent on room service. 😂😂

Dr Frank N Furter as well lol

And Professor in Scary Movie 2 😂😂😂

Concierge

Scrooge in a animated adaptation of A Christmas Carol.

Day job

Which is why his role is so good; it feels much longer

Because Tim is larger than life.

@@TexasAmericana even if he had short screen time He stole each scene he was in 😁😁

Tim Curry steals a lot of movie scenes. He was that good.

Honestly, why do they even need to bring back Harry and Marv? The concierge, Cedric, and the Desk Clerk (Hester) should’ve been the baddies. Let’s just have them be attempting to scam the hotel out of everyone’s money, and instead of the Toy Store doing the donation, it’s the Plaza. Think about how great the chase will be between them realizing that a 10-year-old is behind ruining their plan.

His English accent

This has a couple parts cut out so would be longer

" *EXCUSE ME, SIR!* Do you have Prince Albert in a can? YOU DO! Well then ya better let the poor guy out! Yah-HUH! Yah-HUH! Yah-HUH!"

And find the fugitive (McCallister boy).

Can you imagine the look on his face, when he later discovers that it wasn't "An Insane Guest with a Gun"...but rather,an old "Movie" , called "Angels with even filthier souls"?!? That had me almost dying with laughter! "Mr. Concierge" must've felt like dying from embarrassment!!! I love it!

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaa's New York for ya!

His charisma is absolutely amazing! That's what brings life to any movie to any movie that he's ever been in. Also:In the Tales From The Crypt Series, he plays at least 3 different characters in a Tale, called:"Death of some Salesman". Have you ever seen it? Tim Curry shows quite a bit of range, as it concerns the type of acting he can do!

Indeed. You'd want a concierge to discover your credit card when it's been reported stolen. And the fact that he's noticing the child using it is suspicious beforehand indicates he's all the better at his job. His approach to Kevin was too scary and aggressive and was what made him run. Ultimately that was his only crime. And having seen store owners catch shoplifters do worse, it wasn't too bad.

True. Although - Is it just me, or were they hinting at a tiny bit of pedophilia in his character, in the scene where he was in the hotel room walking towards the open bathroom with the running shower with that creepy grin on his face?

That’s the joke…

Kinda the point? It’s kinda why Kevin didn’t go too hard on them probably. They are more or less a minor annoyance. Not two robbers that want to straight up kill him. Hell the biggest screw up was threatening to call the police.

When I became adult, I understand how the concierge is just doing his job

He's a little too good at his job. When I first saw the movie I hated him 🤣

@@lizavetanikolaevna I Hate him too. And I still do to this day. He's like more of the Grinch than Jim Carrey!!

So is it a concierge’s job to enter someone else’s room without there knowledge and spy on them in the bathroom like a nosey little pervert? 😂

@@gftyhify he shoulda been slapped silly

I am not sure if he did his job perfectly. Trying to arrest a child. But as an actor he did a great job, even if I still doesn’t like character:)

Double clothesline!

And then the concierge all like “Don’t just lie there, Cedric! COME ALONG!”

The way they all hit the floor, and all at the same time... I guess that's what you'd call a "Triple whammy"!!! This movie, as well as it's predecessor, had so many hilarious moments in them. Loved 'em then-&Love 'em now!

My favourite moment in the movie lmao

Funny thing is the Hotel Staff are incredibly incompetent. Now letting him check-in is understandable however as far as the hotel staff knew, during Kevin's stay at least, there was an actual adult staying in the room. Why confront the child staying if you find out the room is on a stolen card? If they learned from police that his family were not with him why confront the child, who appears to have been kidnapped, about his real dad's stolen credit card? You see either way they are incompetent to confront Kevin about it.

@@thecollinanderson “Our lawyers rewrote every hotel procedure in the handbook, and now we have yearly mandatory child training thanks to you! Look what you did you little jerk!”

@@Ed20942 "good to see things have improved around here, friend"

Nope

I'm afraiiid you're mistaken

Haaskeepeeng!! 🤣🤣

Stolen credit cahhhhd

limousine, and a... peet-za!

Have a looovely dae!

Tim Curry's almost satanic smile is immortal. :)

when does he say housekeeping? i can't find it.

It's his English accent

hoews-keepin

One of the most iconic looks from Tim Curry. I can’t help but smile as well as imagine the evilness in it 😁

Mr. Hector’s grin is actually creepy when I first saw this film but seeing him and the staff get humiliated during the gunman scene was comedic gold.

Pod bundle up it’s awfully cold outside

It's all about the lip quiver there

🥺🥺🥺

He wasn't even that old.

I died 😆☠️

He's creepy. Not to mention the fact that he also looks like the Grinch!

@@jasminnemcdonald94A that was before he had a stroke

@@jasminnemcdonald94A also not mention fact he’s OG pennywise

The shot is absolutely perfect, combined with Tim Curry’s sinister smile. He was just about to eat Kevin 🤣

Kevin has no parents with him check in, all this was a lie.

The irony is that he got scared by a clown in 1:15

A clown in the shower no less

It's like he's been the concierge of a posh hotel for so long he doesn´t know what a pizza is

Me too

Yeah. He actually tripped himself when the scene was being filmed. Since the scene was known to be funny, they decided to keep it in the movie.

And 20 years before that he played Dr. Frank'n'Futer in the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I can’t even WATCH Home Alone bc Kevin’s family treats him like 💩 I wasn’t abused by my family, btw. I just get empathetic for Kevin.

Amen to that! Tim Curry always went at his movie and TV Roles, full-bore! He never slacked off, either!

I agree! I recently saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show and I was in love with him as Dr. Frank'n'Futer. Excellent movie!

"Do bundle up. It's awfully cold outside". He says that line, with an abundance of caution. That's because he doesn't want to get slapped again!

He's great in Legend

Oh no!! He's become the Grinch!!

They can’t stop jigsaw

Kevin was a little kid (👦), I get being Concerned about a Kid Checking into a Hotel alone especially at 10 years old,(Any Person would be Worried for Kid Safety especially wandering around NY Alone), Even being curious to if there is a Guardian or Older Family Member with them or Nearby but Kevin wasn't a threat perhaps to the Marv & Harry but Def not Hotel Staff 💯.

​@@Frosty98206 they didn't know that. All they knew from what they saw was that he passed off someone else's credit card as his own. Had he explained his situation and that it was his dad's card, they would've been good and not tried to apprehend him
