Patty gets frustrated, and Greg starts throwing apples at her. During the show's performance, Greg becomes too nervous to sing, confusing the other trees. Greg lands the role of a tree, while Patty Farrell is cast as Dorothy, the protagonist of the novel. At home, Greg's mother forces him into auditioning for the school play (based on The Wizard of Oz). Greg fails a State Capitals test after a girl named Patty Farrell reminds the teacher that he needs to take down the map of the United States because it has the state capitals on it. When they get home, they are soaked with a trash can full of water by Greg's father who mistakes them for teenagers. On Halloween night, Greg and Rowley go trick-or-treating, but are challenged by a group of teenagers who spray them with a water-filled fire extinguisher. Greg and Rowley decide to make a haunted house after seeing the popularity of Crossland High School's haunted house, but they only end up profiting two dollars. Near Halloween, Greg writes that his father likes to hide in the bushes on Halloween night and drench teenagers that walk by their driveway with a trash can full of water. Greg's father does not encourage his way of life - playing video games all day - rather than going outside and playing sports. He has a teenage brother, Rodrick, who likes to pick on him, and a little brother, a toddler named Manny, who gets everything he wants and gets away with everything he does wrong. Although Greg wants to be famous and explains popularity to Rowley, "it just goes in one ear and out the other with him." He also talks about his best friend, Rowley Jefferson. However, the last victim of the Cheese Touch moved away to California, and Greg hopes nobody starts it up again. If someone touches it, they have the "Cheese Touch," which they are stuck with until they pass it on by touching someone else. It started when someone left a piece of cheese on the blacktop, and it got moldy. Greg Heffley, the middle school protagonist, clarifies that "this is a JOURNAL, not a diary." He then explains that he only agreed to write in one for when he is "rich and famous," and "for now, I'm stuck in middle school with a bunch of morons." Greg then discusses the old, smelly, moldy Cheese at his school. The book was adapted into a live action feature film, which released on March 19, 2010, and an animated film adaptation was released on Disney+ on December 3, 2021. The book was named a New York Times bestseller, among other awards and praise. The abridged hardcover adaptation was released on April 1, 2007. The book is about a boy named Greg Heffley and his attempts to become popular in his first year of middle school.ĭiary of a Wimpy Kid first appeared on FunBrain in 2004, where it was read 20 million times. It is the first book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. And I'm giving this one a 1/10.Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a children's novel written and illustrated by Jeff Kinney. Watch the Ghost in the Shell remake or Get Out if you want to see a good movie. This film is horrible and does not deserve to be watched by anybody. So they exist in this universe but Markiplier does not? There's a scene towards the end of the film in a shower that made Alfred Hitchcock turn over in his grave. Yet later they reference Mad Max (yes they actually said Mad Max) and mentioned Charlize Theron. They have a discount Markiplier in the film and a knock-off version of Cheetos. The "jokes" were cringe-worthy to say the least and it just pandered to parents whose kids were always on their phones. This movie is horrible from start to finish. I took a bathroom break in the middle of the film and I must say that me being in the bathroom for three minutes was the best part of the movie. After seeing this and Rings this year, Tusk has some STIFF competition for worst film of the decade. If Alicia Silverstone wants to get her career back, she can kiss that dream goodbye after starring in this thing. I don't know where to begin with this piece of crap.
