Hence why he said how 'playing video games all the time would never amount to anything' or something along those lines, as opposed to 'I bet this actor never got to play a big role after that', like he did for the others.

      It's so funny that none of the kids realized you can use a Warp Whistle ON the Warp Screen, which will instantly Warp you to World 8. This can be done immediately after the 1st Fortress, which can be the 3rd level played. Lol imagine lagging behind a bit so nobody steals your strategy, then totally blowing minds with the Double Warp Whistle straight to the end of the game. 😅

    This probably sounds weird, but Lucas having all of the games that existed for that system at the time in addition to the various paraphernalia to go with it makes me think his parents bought this stuff to buy his affection because they likely don't spend enough time actually raising him.
    I've known people who grew up this way and sometimes it can carry over into adulthood. In Lucas' case, it's possible that he may bully others because it's the only way he can get any kind of attention from anyone he can in order to attempt in vain to replace the lack of affection and guidance that his parents don't provide.

    The mention of Batman in the first episode of Superman The Animated Series.
    Freddy's glove rising from the dirt to drag Jason into Hell in Friday the 13th Part 9.
    ...Anyone got any more examples?

    Fun fact:
    I had a bully who was torturing me all day at a lake on a rec trip. The counselors didn't give a shit even if you told them and I ended up with my arm rubbed raw from the Indian rope burns the bully gave me.
    He laughed at the end of the day and told me he was looking forward to continuing to make my life hell by doing this all summer.
    I snapped at that point, and waited until he was coming back from the bathroom, screamed at the top of my lungs, pointed to him and said that famous pedophilia line as loud as I could.
    He never even looked at me the rest of the summer. Well, after the counselors were done yelling at him.

    Funny he didn't mentioned Rain Man since both movies concern a mentally disabled brothers, yet a savant in a skill. Tom Cruise and Fred Savage played a sane and caring brother while Dustin Hoffman and Luke Edwards played a mentally disabled. Raymond from Rain Man is good with card counting, giving the advantage with blackjack, while Jimmy from the Wizard is very skilled with video gaming. Very coincidental how the two movies played out with similar premises.
