...but the summary is copied off of the book...

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. --Fez2005 (talk) 06:26, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Combining with book page

I'm considering combining this entry with Maniac Magee (book). The film page is simply a copy of the old plot summary from the book page, and a list of actors from the IMDb. Thoughts? Maniacmagee (talk) 18:19, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I get what you're saying about the summary being exactly like the book. I saw the movie once, and there were way too many differences to count between the book and the movie. For people who read the book, Grayson (a man who takes Maniac in for a little while) isn't even in the movie. I would change it, but I only saw the movie once and that was a year ago...

The plot has too many sentence errors, and run-ons. I tried to fix it, but it won't let me for some reason. Peatrrr (talk) 05:03, 21 November 2010 (UTC)Peatrrr[reply]

SOMEONE TAKE OFF ALL THE BOOK DETAILS!!!! >:(

Most of the plot is seen in the book NOT MOVIE!!!! If someone can watch the movie at YouTube, and take off all the details from the book, I would feel better. And also put this at the very beginning, DO NOT BOLD AS SHOWN:

The movie opens up with a young woman telling a story about a 11-year-old "who made a town feel like home."

(Do not take off the last two paragraphs, since that is how the movie ended.) --Wiki-World is in town! (talk) 16:58, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
