I think if someone is going to imagine a friend who LOVES to be athletic, he would imagine him with great strength. Is it me or does GWH sound like Wilt will hardly be in it. I mean they're finding him, we hardly saw Nemo in FN. Besides the couple of tank scenes. :(
I hope I'm wrong. I love Wilt as much as Frankie & almost as much as Bloo/Cheese.

It must just be you, no offense. I understand the analogy between this and Finding Nemo, though. Still, in the Pixar movie, the real protagonist/hero/whatever was Marlin. HE was the one who needed to change, so it was HIM who goes on this quest. IN GWH, from the previews I've read, WILT is the main one who goes off on a search, supposedly to find his creator, though I suspect it's as much to find HIMSELF as anything else, and try and come to grips with his growing emotional turmoil. The search for Wilt that the others undertake seems mostly to be for the comedic interlude to keep things from getting too serious and "heavy". Apparently, it will involve a lot of scenes of Wilt stopping in his quest to help other people, and winding up touching and changing their lives for the better. Remember that part in Forrest Gump when Forrest was trekking cross-country, and winds up inadvertantly changing meny people's lives, becoming a hero and a celebrity along the way? I'm getting more of that sort of vibe, rather than a Finding Nemo one.

I guess, but it seems more like Mac, Bloo, Coco, & Ed (possibly goo) searching for Wilt. If it is like that part of "Forrest Gump". I'll be happy, I'll still like it either wat though.

I think it's safe to say GWH will have a little more drama than usual, but you do have to wonder how they are going to balance it out with the usual style of the show. Something that may come close this are movies such as Raising Arizona.

It's been a while since I last saw the movie, so bear with me here. You have:
--The calm set-up (possibly sans ultra long introduction-before-title sequence =P ) in which a massive problem is revealed.
--The build-up in which some things happen to the main characters that they have to get themselves out of.
--The characters finding themselves cornered, leading to a hilariously crazy sequence in which everyone involved goes bats**t insane trying to escape or chase each other (think the climax of RA or the car-chase-through-a-mall of Blues Brothers).
--The solving of the problem, which turns out to be very bittersweet, almost bleak.
--The last scene, in which the characters and/or the viewer realizes that maybe everything will turn out alright after all. There are still quite a few loose ends, but it's something.

Maybe it's just me, but I can see this sort of setup happening in GWH. Maybe not exactly, but close at least.

I think that in GWH perhaps at some point, we may see flashbacks or something. Like stuff with his creator or maybe a little about what happened to him only nothing to graphic if you know what i mean. Perhaps just the shadow of something upon a wall in an alley or something and then it just goes back to the present Wilt. I remember seeing a shadow of a knife in Bloo Done It when Madame Foster had supposedly just been murdered, so then you just assume things but you don't see anything.

Flashbacks would be awesome! :D

That's interesting, good theory there.

Not to be disturbing, but I had this dream the other night about Wilt getting trapped in one of those wood-cutting machines (logging factory?) trying to save someone trapped on the conveyer belt. Boy, you know you're too attached to a character when...

Invader Bloo 10-22-2006 06:06 PM

Wow, that would make since because he's always helping friends.

I just thought perhaps he was outisde playing his creator and his dad was doing the lawn with one of those lawn mowers that you sit on and drive like a car and he could of fallen over or something and got run over...

I've actually seen what happens when a person gets run over by one of those types of mowers. It ain't pretty, believe me, and they do NOT survive! It's pretty hard to get run over by one of those things, unless you are completely incapacitated(the individual who got killed not far from where I live was passed-out drunk). Mowers DO have brakes. The individual who got killed here was passed out in high grass, an the person on the mower couldn't see him, but it would be hard to NOT see a ten-foot-tall bright red Imaginary Friend!

I really have a feeling that Wilt's injuries occured after he'd already parted company with his creator, and that his creator(whoever that turns out to be)has no idea that he got hurt.
