As the Christmas classic Home Alone nears its 35th anniversary this year, director Chris Columbus has no desire to reboot the iconic franchise, saying that he doesn't want to ruin what made the original film so special.
"I think Home Alone really exists as, not as this timepiece, but it was this very special moment, and you can't really recapture that," said Columbus in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. "I think it's a mistake to try to go back and recapture something we did 35 years ago. I think it should be left alone."
