Live Poll: What Ever Happened to Wilson?

The last time that we saw the beloved soccer ball from Cast Away (2000), he was floating on the ocean, tragically separated from the adoring Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks). We all know where Chuck went from there, but what do you think happened to Wilson?

List: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls099456155/
Poll: https://www.imdb.com/poll/UKmwa8EbZns/

Suggestions welcomed. : )

These made me laugh before I even necessarily knew yet what they were referring to, lol. I added the Lilo & Stitch suggestion and may add one or both of the others after I see how much space I have. Thank you so much!

These work more like “Caption This!”. The images work in concert with the caption.

“May the Schwartz be with you. Enough said. Wilson is the one on the right.”


https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2488496/...

“Wilson had a makeover and joined the rebel force.”


https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6595896/...

“Wilson became a pokeball!?! Nooooo!”


https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078869/...

Wilson made his own homemade armor and joined the rebel force. He is on the left.

If only the IMDb had this picture! But it doesn’t because I took is in the store! I would have used this on it
“Wilson became a Pokeball !?! Noooo! And look! He is hanging with his friends!”

I added “Wilson had a makeover and joined the rebel force.” ('So funny!) Thank you. : )

I'm trying to see how long and crowded the list gets before I add too many more. I don't want it to get overwhelming. Also, the other two Star Wars images probably won't be clear as small poll pictures -- and I'm guessing a lot might be cut out because of cropping. It's so disappointing when good ideas can't be included in a poll because there's no available image that would work.

Hahahaha. I'll consider adding this once I see how long and busy the list gets. I think this is a poll that probably shouldn't get too long.

He decided to cast a vote on an IMDb poll about that ever happened to him. He had learned about it after getting a ton of mail.

Unfortunately, the image probably won't crop well or be clear enough as a small poll image so I'm not going to be able to add this unless I find another fitting photo that would work as an image in a poll.

Ruby,

Is your poll suggestion still under construction?

Dan. Yep. It's nowhere near done. Not indicating that she has yet to update other people's suggestions but there are duplicate placeholder spots: Lost and Jaws have two each.

Yes, unfortunately, it is. It has taken me a long time to go through all of the great suggestions, which has been very entertaining. : )  

I've finally made some progress lately, though, so I'll let everyone know when I get through it and I'll take down the "under construction" label on the list.

Sorry. I had fixed the post. It should work now. That is Wilson himself talking.

That was meant for the 2nd image link for Wilson (1947).

These are good but I don't think quite as good as your other suggestions, which are great, and I want to keep the number of options from going above 20 so I'm not going to add these -- but only because I don't want anything to distract from the best suggestions of yours.

He moved in next door to a host of a home improvement show and became the wise neighbor “Wilson”who nobody ever saw.

Dennis' wide-eyed curiosity, well-meaning attempts to help out, 
and his simply being a normal, red-blooded American boy growing up 
always seemed to lead to trouble.
Usually on the receiving end was Dennis' next-door neighbor George Wilson
