Hmm...I didn't even know there were different credit sequences! Yes, thanks for the info!

I really loved that they were able to incorporate the lawnmower into Wilt’s journey (well, I loved everything in this wonderful, wonderful movie, the stuff which every Wilt fan’s sweet dreams are made of). It was very clearly a reference to David Lynch’s the Straight Story, concerning a man who travels across the US on the back of a lawnmower to be reunited with an estranged brother who’s dying of cancer (I’m sorry if someone has already pointed this out, but I read most of the posts in this thread and couldn’t see any previous references to it…lots to Space Jam, though

).

And Fluffer-Nutter's creator? Sure didn't see that one coming.

I wonder if Papa Toutle has ever told Mikey and Paul, Jr. about Fluffer Nutter?

I really, really want a shirt with that silouette of Wilt on the lawnmower-that would make for one great parody of "West Coast Choppers" right there! There's a big company called "Dixie Choppers", based here in SC, I think(or maybe GA), that makes high-dollar lawnmowers(in spite of the name); wouldn't it be great if they could get Wilt as their spokesperson?

Oh, man! If there were such a shirt, I would SO buy it!

There was a GWH studio-exclusive shirt on eBay once or twice a while back, and I'm pretty sure it was of Wilt on the lawnmower. Can't remember if it was a silhouette though.

I might have seen that exact same shirt.

CG · 02-25-2007, 09:27 PM

Yeah the image was a silhouette of Wilt riding the mower in front of the sun. I think the shirt was deep red/brown colour with orange writing/imagery. It was very nice.

"C" the Dragon · 02-26-2007, 12:32 PM

It's on EBAY?! Man, when is it ever gonna come out on "Shop on Cartoon Network"?

One Radical Dude · 02-26-2007, 05:52 PM

More than likely, it will never become available to all. I believe it was one of those limited edition shirts.

Yes, it was given to people who reviewed the movie on DVD, before it even came out on television, so it was another studio exclusive.
