I'm envisioning a scene late in the GWH movie, where the journey to find Wilt seems to become totally hopeless(all thanks to Bloo's crackpot theories). One by one, the gang decide to just quit and go back home... except Frankie, who instead gives everybody a speech on just how important and valuable Wilt really is to Foster's, and that she's NOT willing to turn back the bus until they find him.

I'd figure that Frankie's search for Wilt, and the rest of the gang's search for Wilt, will most likely be two separate searches, with each not knowing about the other until they chance to run into each other. I can't see Frankie looking for ANYTHING on a cross-country trip while hauling an eight-year-old kid that's not hers, and a bunch of other Imaginary Friends...especially a certain small BLUE Imaginary Friend! That's just too much to deal with while trying to find Wilt. I figure that Mac, Bloo, Ed, and Coco will probably set off on their own, probably without Frankie knowing about it, until their paths cross, at which time she'd send them on home(or, TRIES to). Wilt is her legal responsibility, after all, so it would be up to her to find him, but looking after someone's kid(and that someone won't have any clue where said kid has gotten to)and all the rest would be far too distracting and stressful. Besides, Frankie may have some issues of her own regarding Wilt she feels she needs to deal with, such as some of her recent treatment of him(and NO, I am NOT bashing Frankie), and may feel that she is to blame for his departure, since she does not apparently know the real reason he left Foster's.

Bloo will, of course, at least at some point, blame a Galactic Overlord.

I have to admit, the hype for "Good Wilt Hunting" is making me dread it as much as I am anticipating it. Not only do I have fears for the humor/drama/character possibly not development living up to the heightened expectations; deeply personal and wildly varied expectations seem to have built up in many people--meaning that some of them are going to be VERY disappointed. And I'm unfortunately guilty of this, as I probably won't enjoy GWH much if Frankie only has a tiny role.

And as for the whole pairings argument... I love this board, and I love all of you guys. So I hope you'll understand when I say that I'm a little disheartened with the nature in which this board and it's users treat that concept.

Just for the record, I'm not a "shipper" person at all. There are some canon pairings in fictional works that I do like a lot, but I don't obsess over them. In that case, I'm not obsessed with the idea of Wilt and Frankie getting together in the official canon--even though I wouldn't mind that happening, completely unlike something like FrankieXHerriman. But if they don't ever become lovers, that's fine with me; just as long as they remain on good standing by the end of the series.

I understand that a lot of people aren't into that stuff, and that's fine; and it's definitely a good idea to separate such discussions into their own threads for their sake. But I have to be honest. Some users here have become extremely cold and hostile towards shipping, fanfiction and anybody who supports both--and that, in my opinion, is not fine AT ALL.

Is it necessary to say "I HATE SHIPPING/FANFICTION OF ANY KIND" that bluntly and at the top of your lungs? Do you have to treat it as if it were an incurable disease or mass murderer? Do you have to crush the spirits of any shipper potentially reading these posts? Do you really have to make them feel persecuted and even hated just because of their beliefs? Isn't that called DISCRIMINATION?

I believe in having an opinion and the freedom to express it. But I also believe in treating everybody else with the respect they deserve. I'm sorry, but I don't appreciate how some people here feel the need to speak so harshly and stomp on people's spirits and dreams, especially on a fan forum to a show that is dedicated to sparking and stimulating such imagination.

Uhm, guys...I think we probably need to drop the subject of pairings, especially where "Wilt x Anybody" is concerned, OK? Some people are bothered by the pairing choices of others, and this topic has caused some disagreements that escalated into arguements in the past on the old board, so I'd prefer to avoid that here. Yes, I did mention my support of a particular pairing, but I'm not going to go any further than that or get dragged into an arguement to defend it, and I just think it would be a good idea to move on to something else Wilt-related.

Which is why I wasn't even speaking of this.

Um.........I wonder how big Wilt's teeth are, since they seem bigger than the rest of the character's. XD

[Cassini90125]

I've noticed that, too. They vary from time to time of course, as things in cartoons often do, but I'd guess they're a little larger than those of a horse.

[Vampyre]

I'm quite surprised he hasn't got buck teeth actually, since his two front teeth ARE unusually large. By the way speaking of the oral area of his face, as anyone ever recorded an episode and watched Wilt's mouth move in slow motion when he talks? Gotta love his gi-huge-ic mouth!

Also I'm sorry about the 'pairing' thingy going round. That was kind of (completely) my fault. You can digitally punch me now

[scary_dream]

Aw, I love Wilt's huge mouth/smile. I think that's one of the things that make him so charming!

However, I'm not really surprised that he doesn't have buck teeth. Yeah, his teeth are large, but if you'll notice whenever he open-mouth smiles, they're all even and straight. I think whenever he smiles like this , the "ginormous teeth" effect is just some cartoon-y stretching.

(Whew... so glad I stayed out of the "Pairing/Fanfic" argument! I don't plan on punching Vampyre though )

[Vampyre]

Hooray I get to keep my teeth!

Bloo did.

That, dear boy, is becuase he's bloo.
