Just to honor the great creator and former buros: Creator: Rigby1219

Former Buros: Former Admins I'm really pleased with how much progress the wiki made in its five years. When I first came here, it was full of misinformation, information based on shady sources, etc. My favorite was The Amazing World of Gumball Trilogy:
 * Stealthghost
 * AlgebraicBoy
 * E123omega
 * Globaluna32
 * Randomced859
 * Killer365
 * MissingNo.
 * WikiStarter
 * MisterJim
 * Aghhh there are probably a lot more, but I can't think clearly right now lol

=====================================================

"The Amazing World Of Gumball Trilogy is a series of three feature-length motion pictures distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, Legendary Pictures, and Playtone that are based on the Cartoon Network television series, The Amazing World of Gumball. The first film is called The Amazing World of Gumball: The Movie (to be released in theaters on July 3rd, 2020), the second film The Amazing World of Gumball II (June 21st, 2023) and The Amazing World of Gumball III (July 2nd, 2027). Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (directors of "Clone High", "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" and "21 Jump Street") are currently in talks to helm the first film in the upcoming 'TAWOG' trilogy.

Spin-Off Films
''There is one spin-off film of The Amazing World of Gumball that will be named Carrie the Ghost. If greenlighted, the film may hit theaters on June 15th, 2029. No writers and/or director annouced as of yet. Another spin-off film called Alan the Balloon may also hit theaters on November 8th, 2030 if greenlighted. As with Carrie the Ghost, there has been no announcement of any writer or director of the film. Another spin-off film, entitled Darwin's Big Journey, will be aired on Cartoon Network in 2014."''

You'd THINK it'd be immediately deleted as spam, buuuut some people believed it lol. Their "source" for the information was, drumroll, another Gumball wiki that was much less active than ours. So we argued about it for like, a week, and then they finally relented and deleted the page.

I mean, I guess it could still happen. A Gumball movie MIGHT ACTUALLY come out in 2019, just like they predicted lol. But there's no way an entire trilogy spanning 19 years would've been confirmed when the show just came out.

Anyway, we've progressed so much since those dark times. I remember the show staff saying somewhere that when they added new writers, they actually actively used the wiki to learn more about the show lol, which truly attests to the quality of information here.

I also really miss asking James Lamont and Jon Foster questions on Formspring that they'd actually answer regularly. Doesn't look like formspring is around anymore, though. Which means all of the questions and answers there are lost to time...I do still have the questions I asked saved as pics somewhere, though.

And ahh, sorry for the long (and belated...) post.
