Blank Check (1994)
A Disney embarrassment and Home Alone rip-off (one of many) that should've been left in the vault rather than shown to the public eye. Preston, a little boy, lives in a world where money is the only means to find happiness. The kids at school make fun of him for being poor, his dad gives him a measly allowance, and his brother's teasing is ruthless (his brother who's starting his own business, yet has no idea how to use a computer!). After a criminal runs over his bike and gives him a blank check to cover the costs, he cashes it for a million dollars and goes bananas. Oh, and did I mention there's a kiss shared between a child and a grown woman in her twenties? ...Oh yes. Disney went there. This deserves a riff.
