There still were some closed doors at the end, yeah. Considering that there are eight years of Wilt's life unaccounted for, I'd like to see something building on that in the future. Sorry about the little boo-boo about the plotline. Yeah, Wilt would definately know who his creator was, but he wasn't looking for him. If he was he'd have gone to Japan and there went half the ep out the window. I wholeheartedly agree that Wilt was looking more for his own forgiveness and some closure above all else. (I think I may steal a couple of points here for a fic I'm working on. May I, pbl? Thanks!)

Still, for me, the thing about Wilt that stood out more than anything in this movie was his determination, and good old-fashioned TOUGHNESS. He's definately no wuss or crybaby, this guy, but sometimes, in spite of his friendly, helpful demeanor, Wilt almost takes that "man-up" thing a bit TOO far, almost seeming "cold", emotionally, at times, for fear of appearing weak, I suppose. I guess when someone has walked through that provervial Valley of the Shadow of Death, and managed to still make it through the other side, it's got to put a bit of a cold steel edge on 'em somewhere. pitbulllady |

Someone may have found this out already but, has anyone noticed the air date for Good Wilt Hunting is "11/23"?
You know, like the address for the Fosters house? 1123 Wilson way?

I never noticed that before. Man, that's good. <Bows in awe of superior observation skills>

I remember seeing this episode a week after it first aired. Coincidentally, one person from my lab downloaded Good Wilt Hunting on the main lab computer recently. The lab directors deleted it before I got a chance to watch it again, though. D:
Anyhow, I thought it was a pretty good episode/movie/you-name-it. Wilt has always been one of my favorite characters, and I became ecstatic when we finally learned of his backstory. I can't help but think they could've done more with his backstory, as well as add more things about Edwardo's and Coco's pasts. For the latter, maybe there's another skew of episodes for that? I gave it an A anyhow. Besides the good animation and story, there were a handful of memorable scenes (like the basketball game near the end). I see no reason to score it any lower than that. |

There's definitely a LOT of room to expand more on Wilt's past; we do not even know, for example, when or where he finally got medical treatment, or where or how, or whom with, he spent those eight "Lost Years" between his injuries and arriving at Foster's, or what efforts Jordan made to find him or how he coped with the loss of someone who had become a family member. That's one of the things I'd love to see-a DVD released, to the general public(as opposed to special give-aways to the folks who screened the movie), that includes more footage and goes into a bit more detail, and comes complete with an in-depth interview/commentary by the star himself, as well as other key players in the movie. pitbulllady |

Seriously, a commentary with at least Wilt would be cool, but as far as we know, it probably won't happen. The commentary will be, at least, forever attached to all Wilt fans as imagination...However, not just a Wilt commentary, but maybe another one with Wilt and some other characters too...Deleted scenes (What movie wouldn't have THOSE?)...Egad! It's so exciting, I nearly forgot it doesn't exist, and probably won't...
We can dream, though... Last edited by antgirl1; 05-26-2008 at 10:23 AM. |
