Good Wilt Hunting Movie Discussion 11/23/06

[antgirl1]

Five words: "Too Good For A Review". But I'll try.

SUMMERY
This movie proved to be the BEST movie in the history of the television...maybe even movie history as well! We find out what happened to Wilt, and now, I love him (AS FAMILY, DANGIT) even more than I had. Learning that Wilt's creator, Jordan Michaels, (is that how it's spelled?) wanted to become as good a player as his older brother, thus making Wilt real.

BEGINNING
Wilt all tense and uncomfortable, not wanting to talk about his creator. Aww.

Jeez, if Wilt can wake up Bloo, then Wilt must've been LOUD. XD

Even on a journey, Wilt is always lending a helping hand (even if he's only got one), just look how he helped Floofy Woogums (the pink teddy-bear IF)! And being pulled into a group hug...aww.

"Cwissmith? I mean, Christmas? But that was months ago!" -Wilt

And helping out that farmer caused Wilt to miss his train. Oops.

MIDDLE
Wilt, again, lending a helping hand. Mowing lawns. Geez, later on they stretched the truth. Golden lawnmover? PAH. The thing was rusted up. He remembers a little of his past, back when he was whole - and he didn't look a little, um, disturbing, because we're used to seeing him as he is today - and his creator, back then, had an AFRO. XDDD But aww, Wilt was no different than he is today - nice, encouraging, father-like, and then competitive around "The most important game of my boy's life". Which I'll talk about later on.

One time gets him into trouble with the police. XDD

"You're under arrest for assistance in burglery!" -Police

I loved how Wilt just let out a bit of his past to total strangers, to jailbirds, of all people.

Wilt: I crushed-
Jailer: His foot?
Wilt: No. I crushed his dreams.

NEAR ENDING
Dun-dun-dun! The good part comes on, the rematch. Slow motion and in an angle as Wilt walks into the BBall court. SLOW MOTION. XDD

When Foul Larry was messing Wilt, Wilt did show a hint of sadness or hurt, yet kept a deturmined look, or a "stiff upper-lip".

"Why don't you PROVE it, if THAT'S ok?" -Wilt

Even if Wilt is supposed to be angry and deturmined, he still is polite about it, saying "Sorry, but I had to take care of things first,". Foul Larry is nasty, calling Wilt a shortie!

"You scared...shortie?" -Foul Larry

Wilt's face sure says "Bring it ON". And sure, Wilt is winning...at first. I think that Wilt did win, because Larry was cheating by throwing/tripping/just plain treating Wilt like a ragdoll. And cheaters NEVER win. As much as Wilt kept getting hurt, he never started fighting back like Larry was. Wilt just kept getting back up and following the rules. Though pausing a few times, he never gave up, he never backed out. He was no quiter.

Though, as he pauses one time, he remembers...when he lost his arm and eye. Even back then, he never gave up. Still being as good as he is now at BBall when he was whole. Then, risking his left arm to save his boy, and the BBall ruined his left eye...ow. But Wilt never paid any attention to the pain he must've felt, only thinking how he had let his boy down.

But...BACK TO REALITY.

Stats: Larry's going for a slam!
Wilt: A slam! *gulp*
Stats: He's going to win!

Even knowing what could happen to him, Wilt had to try to block it. Before Wilt could "go SPLAT" against the wall, someone saves him - Jordan.


As it turns out, Wilt feels that his creator would never forgive him, because he had lost...again.

"I lost. I can't believe I lost again. Now he'll never forgive me." -Wilt

But the tables are turned (fortunately) and Jordan does still care about him, especially when he told what had happened when Wilt disappeared.

"It wasn't until Stats had told me, long afterward, 'bout your arm and eye...it was all my fault. I looked everywhere for you, but you had disappeared. Losing taught me an important thing, that winning wasn't everything. I had created you to make me a better player, but instead, made me a better person. Wilt, you're the best friend I ever had, you've got to stop saying you're sorry, it's not ok...ok?" -Jordan Michaels

Seriously, I loved that part. Especially when Wilt grinned, said "Ok!" and hugged his creator...cue the big fat "AWWW", people. Cue it, I demand you!

ENDING
Back at Foster's, "the 'hood" IFs start living there. Even Larry. Though I'm not sure if Wilt and him are going to still treat each other as rivals, or if they had bonded a friendship. Who knows?

Before Jordan leaves, Wilt and him play basketball...aww. Old pals. Except when Wilt keeps scoring. I SWEAR, even if Wilt is apologising every time, he's doing it on purpose. I SWEAR it.

"Why'd I make you so tall?" -Jordan

CREDITS
LOL! Wilt the BBall dad! (pun of "Soccer moms")

"Oh, come on, that was a FOUL!"
"This isn't a contacting sport, people!"
"Come on, brake it up, brake it up." -Wilt
