Wilt

[Vampyre]

When I said that Wilt valued life more, i didn't mean he valued it more than the game, but more than he did before hand. Life would mean more to ANY one than a basketball match, or any match for that matter and so would the life of any one else. \wilt would NEVER care more about a game than his own creator, for he truly did love him and still does.

The ONLY reason that the ill-fated game meant so much to Wilt was because of his love for Jordan. He knew that as a young child, Jordan would have considered winning above all else, and since Wilt had been brought into existance to assist with that, Wilt figured that the boy would have been horribly let-down by the loss. It was moreso a matter of Wilt thinking he'd failed at his purpose, than merely losing that game. It took Jordan, now an adult, to remind Wilt that he had far more and far greater purposes than just helping his creator win at basketball. This certainly contradicts someone's(who I will refrain from naming)assertion that each Imaginary Friend is created for one purpose and one purpose only, and is basically useless for anything else, therefore making them inferior to us humans. If deeds make you more or less valuable/important, then Wilt shines far and above most humans I've ever met.

thats not saying much

Wilt probably got all that experience hanging around that creaky old house for 30+ years.

Do you knwo what I'd like to see? I'd like to see an episode where we take a deeper look into Wilt's past. Sure we know how he lost his arm and we know who created him, but it would be cool to see what his family was like, rather than just his kid. Maybe even an episode that showed the day that Wilt was actually created...

Yeah, I'd like to see that, too. GWH really helped in clearing up some issues, but I dunno... I want more!

I'd like to see some more quality time between him and Jordan, as well, like what they did and talked about whenever they weren't playing basketball.

Yeah, their family life back in the Holy City would be great to see, especially if the writers really took time to research that particular culture, like the food, the local phrases, the landmarks, etc. It's be funny to see Wilt really falling into the role of father/big brother, making sure that Jordan got his homework done and didn't act up in school, in addition to coaching him at b-ball. I would also love to see Jordan's mom and older brother, and see the interaction between them and Wilt. While I figure there might be a tad bit of resentment at first between Wilt and the older bro, I'd bet that Jordan's mom would have thought of Wilt as a family member, if not the "baby" of the family, from the get-go, and treated him like he was her own son, even though an extra mouth to feed would have probably put quite a financial strain on that family. Showing at least a family reunion would not only give us more insight into what Wilt's life was like right after he was created, beyond basketball, but it would also be a good way to showcase the unique Low Country culture, especially if they showed any of the barrier islands, like James Island, where there's still remnants of the real Gullah/Geechee traditions.

Two years ago, Craig himself said they weren't gonna reveal Wilt's past.

Two years later, the crew made a movie that had Wilt's past in it.

Iron-ee!

All we had asked for was what happened to Wilt, and that's all we got.

I DON'T think the crew'll go any FARTHER than that. Otherwise, we'd be so spoiled, don't you think? XD

At least until we know the truth, we can leave the possiblities to imagination.

Imaginary; imagination. IRON-EE! XD

Well, no... Cind is not a word...
