Whereupon my 6-year-old son Wolfgang and I tackle different movies and return to earth from the frontiers of cinema with questions & answers. With a crayon drawing to boot.

Film commentary and questions with Wolfie:
“I’m not used to the credits rolling in the beginning.”
“Is his dog his best friend? I thought you said that his bike is his best friend!!”
“What is he doing with the scotch tape in the bathroom?”
“He is like an American Mr. Bean. Wait, where is Mr. Bean from?”

Jessie: Wolfie, if you had to pick your top 3 scenes from the movie which ones would you choose?
Wolfie: 1. When he says “Good morning…I’m heeeere” to his bike 2. The showing of his bike in its hiding place. 3. When he finally gets his bike back and goes riding all over the Warner Brothers lot. I can’t believe he was on the Warner Brothers lot and this is a Warner Brothers movie!

J: Which characters were your favorite (besides PW)?
W: The guys at the motorcycle bar.

J: Do you think that the trailer was a good match for how the movie actually is?
W: Yes.

J: If you were alive in 1985 would you want to see PWBA after seeing the trailer for it? Why/why not?
W: Yes because it looks like a really good movie and I like the part where he says to the bicycle ‘“Good morning…I’m heeeere!”

J: How many stars out of 5 stars would you give this movie?
W: Infinity and beyond.

J: That’s a huge number of stars. Why do you feel it deserves so many?
W: It's a very good quality movie and a nice story.

J: Any last thoughts on the film?
W: I gotta say that I like that they show the deleted scenes and the original trailer. This would be a good movie to watch with Aunt Laura.
