I think Home Alone 4 is definitely set between the first and second film after verifying. I really shouldn't take these films as seriously as I am, but here we are.

1. The first film has a December 1990 calendar while the second film is firmly set in 1992.
2. Kevin is 8 in the first, 9 in the fourth and 10 in the second.
3. While they repeatedly say that the first film happened a year ago in the second installment, they could be mistaken or referring to the fourth film.
4. Home Alone 4 doesn't seem to ever actually reference the second film.
5. The home video of the McCallisters' last Christmas could be set directly after the first film.
6. Peter breaks up with Natalie to be with his family at the end. I feel terrible for her to be honest, she was so kind to Kevin and spoilt him. From her perspective, he just acts out and causes thousands of dollars of property damage for no reason. Then her maid was arrested, her butler quit, her boyfriend left her the royal family decided to spend the day with the McCallisters instead of her... all on Christmas day.

They probably didn't intend for the continuity to go 1 -> 4 -> 2, but it's seemingly the most logical interpretation.

I can't believe I'm making notes about this, but here.

Home Alone
The calendar in Kevin's house matches December 1990. He is 8 years old.

Home Alone 4
Despite the early 2000s technology, Kevin is 9 years old in this film, placing it in 1991. The videos showing the family's previous Christmas can be taken to occur directly after the events of Home Alone. Marv does state that Kevin shows up whenever he's about to rob somewhere, implying that he's met him more than once prior to this film, but it's vague enough that it can still work.

Home Alone 2
There are two references placing this film in 1992. The ledger at the Plaza Hotel and the New York Post that Harry has, which was dated December 24, 1992. Matching with this, Kevin is stated to be 10 years old. Despite this, there are numerous references to the first film as having occurred last year.

1. Kate McCallister references Kevin's wish from the first film coming true a year ago.
2. Kevin tells the airport workers that his plane can't leave without him, as he was left on his own last year and it nearly wrecked his Christmas.
3. Kate tells the police that Kevin was left at home by accident last year.
4. Harry asks Marv if he remembers what happened last year when they approach the stairs.

These can be instead taken as references to Home Alone 4.

1. Kevin wished that he was an only child and got to experience being one while at his father's girlfriend's house.
2. Kevin wasn't technically left home alone in the fourth instalment, but he might as well have been.
3. Same as above.
4. Harry could be referencing when Marv encountered Kevin during Home Alone 4.

So... yeah. The Kevin MacCalister trilogy. I've analysed Home Alone 4 more than I should have. Definitely works though.

1990 - Home Alone
1991 - Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House
1992 - Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
1996 - Home Alone 3

Has anyone done a timeline for Once Upon a Time yet?

The only issue I really had was trying to fit the Wonderland spin-off in, and I've had numerous people online saying to watch it from anywhere between before season 2 of OUaT, to before season 4, though I couldn't find a definitive answer until I came across a timeline someone had made who overlayed the episodes between season 2, which is what I've done here. I haven't finished watching OUaT yet, and haven't even begun watching the spinoff, so it could be wrong, though for now I'm content with this simplified timeline (I'll probably make a detailed timeline on a separate thread once I've finished watching the show, though I may do it as I go along. I am aware that there are numerous novels and comics surrounding the show, though I will only include those on the separate thread)
EDIT: I also now realise there is a Journey to Neverland special, so I've added that too.

Regarding the Hitman mission:

"Marv "Slick" Gonif grew up in Chicago, the child of two academics working at the local university. Bored out of his mind and unable to relate to his parents, Gonif started slumming and quickly ran into the delinquent Harry Bagnato. Together, the youngsters started robbing and deceiving tourists. For Gonif, it was entirely for the kicks, while for Bagnato it was a necessity in order to survive. One day, the pair got arrested while attempting to break in to the mansion belonging to Gonif's neighbor. Bagnato got sent into juvenile detention while Gonif got confined to his house where he grew even more distant from his parents. Once out, Bagnato immediately returned to Gonif and the two ran away together, spending the next many years as reasonably unsuccessful burglars, experiencing the insides of many county jails across the country. Finally feeling the attention of the federal authorities focus on them, Bagnato and Gonif recently travelled to Europe to try their luck there. And what better place to start than Paris?"

1. Chicago is, of course, where the majority of Home Alone films are at least partially set.

2. Marv's parents, you say?
https://homealone.fandom.com/wiki/Molly_MurchinsFunny to think that the mother that Marv's Hitman biography references would in theory be Molly from Home Alone 4.

3. I would assume that the mansion they broke into here was not the McCallister mansion.

I want to see Harry's target info but the Hitman wiki doesn't list it, which sucks.

I was adding the years as I went through them. Also, there's serveral shorts, including a webseries that features Kevin in three episodes, a response video to the first episode of that featuring Marv, and a Google Assistant advert. Based on the days of the week, The Holiday Heist is either set in 2010 or 2011.

The character they reference from "The Village" is very probable to NOT be the one in the movie, for reason that are clear if you have seen the movie.

 

[Pro Bot]

I think the fact that they're all school students make them all mostly unlikely, though I will say that the Home Alone references are harder to dispute as being the same.

 

[Pro Bot]

Unfriended could probably be taken seriously too, since it's pretty much the same sort of film.

During David's Google search of Vick, you can see results come up for Detective Rosa Diaz from Brooklyn Nine-Nine in the search bar, but of course this could be a search for the fictional character. The same can not be said about Marley, Harry and Marv from Home Alone, who are previous cases that Detective Vick took on... the implication that Marley is actually legitimately a murderer is kind of terrifying though.

Oh yeah, anyone planning on doing a Timeline for the Police Squad/Naked Gun series? And yes, this new film is a continuation of the original Naked Gun trilogy, since Liam Neeson's Frank Drebin is the son of Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin.

Is Frank Drebin Jr. from the Point & Click Adventure the same Frank Drebin Jr. as Liam Neeson's character?

I've seen that speculated. Unfortunately it's hard to verify because that game is really hard to find.

First time I'm hearing of this game, NGL

 

[Rojinn]

Both the Detective Pikachu film and the Game have connections to the Pokémon Anime. The movie stated that Mewtwo escaped 20 years ago (linking it to the first film). The game has a cameo of a Pikachu that very likely is Ash's

 

[Pro Bot]

Indeed it does - although none of the games are literally canon with the anime.

 

[GradoNite]

The Indiana Jones franchise is canon to pre-crisis Earth-2

All-Star Squadron #5

All-Star Squadron #6

 

[Pro Bot]

I don't know if I've mentioned it here, but I've spoken on that before somewhere. Pretty cool.

 

[LegionAOD]

Does anyone know of a good link to a 2000AD timeline that isn't just Dredd (Case files makes his timeline SLIGHTLY easier to follow) because one that mentions stuff like Caliballistics Inc, Slaine etc would be cool.

The explanation of its continuity and the universes the story is connected to.
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/User_talk:Sabrblade/BotCon_2025_report
The sequenced for the G1 cartoon, like the G1 cartoon Cliffjumper surviving into the end of the universe (this comic features the very last moment in the G1 cartoon timeline), the Bayverse comics Cliffjumper getting saved from Shatter and Dropkick in 1987 and the Animated Cliffjumper getting saved from Toxitron can also be considered canon.

However, time travel heavily changes the timelines of the G1 cartoon and the Prime cartoon universes in this comic. Despite the fact that the writer of the comic says time travel functions in the Back to the Future style here, meaning time travel changes the timeline and does not create new universes, that would decanonize like 99% of the G1 cartoon and the Prime cartoon and its spinoffs. So, it is safe to assume those new timelines simply split off from the original timelines and did not replace them.

In 1987, you say? So when Bumblebee is set... hmmmmmmmmmmm...

Plus, due to the fact the other timelines are branched, it seems to me that the Bayverse comics reality includes Bumblebee and this also branches from that timeline.

Well, they've always been a bit weird. Different mediums get different designations even if they're supposed to be the same universe.

Well, I can include the movie universe page as a branch to my Bayverse timeline. Dropkick is killed in both Bumblebee and this comic so it really makes no difference, you have to accept that in the comics, Cliffjumper or Dropkick were killed off and then somehow returned. Seeing as how the G1 and Prime continuities featured are branches, stands to reason that this is a branch of the Bayverse from the events of Bumblebee in 1987.

 

[Pro Bot]

Lol, they mixed up the reality designations. The Malgus reality depicts the scene from Bumblebee, which means it should be Tyran.


For comparison.
