That is, of course, until a rather unsettling visual gag was recently discovered in Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix.

The gag, which was first noticed by the team at Popsugar, is pretty subtle – but it’s still there.

It’s coming up to Christmas, so we thought we’d remind you of this little clip from the festive movie Home Alone 2: Lost In New York.

It stars Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, a boy who is left behind by his family as they head off for a Christmas break.

As the title suggests, Kevin ends up in New York and one scene finds him wandering around the Plaza Hotel all on his own.

There’s only a few short months to wait until Marvel fans get to see Spider-Man: Homecoming on the big screen but here’s some even more good news – you can expect at least two more.

Tom Holland, the British actor who will take on the iconic role, has admitted that when he signed on to Marvel and it’s behemoth franchise,  ‘they give you options and those could be exercised whenever’.

‘Like a cameo in Avengers,’ he added.

But then he admits that he is ‘unclear as to which movies though’; his character is optioned for but that he does ‘know I have three Spider-Man [appearances in… Read the full story


WATCH: Someone has compiled Donald Trump’s best ever film and television cameos

Long before Donald Trump was named the 45th president of the United States Of America, his frequent cameos in film and television arguably helped cement his pop culture presence.

And rather than whipping out those long-lost DVDs (or probably just some dedicated YouTube searching) to find them, someone has already gathered together highlights of every single moment.

They range from Home Alone 2: Lost In New York to his infamous WWE Wrestlemania fight back in 2007 – we reckon it’s definitely worth a look.

A seasoned (guest) star of Hollywood, Trump’s film appearances included air time in Ben Stiller’s Zoolander, The Job, Little Rascals and Whoopi Goldberg’s Eddie.

Long before telling firing contestants on The Apprentice, the 70-year-old also made television cameos ranging from The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, Spin City, Sex And The City, and The Drew Carey Show.

The date for the new Mission: Impossible is July 27, 2018.
