Hello Ladies & Gentlemen, Welcome to the Undisputed Wrestling Podcast.
Welcome to our podcast series called "Wrestling With Film" where every month we'll be reviewing a movie that has featured professional wrestlers.
"The Undisputed Rev" James Woolford is joined by "John Cena's Biggest Fan" Callum Hogan to review the 2010 film Fred: The Movie that featured John Cena.
Fred: The Movie is a 2010 television comedy film written by David Goodman directed by Clay Weiner and produced by Brian Robbins. The film is based on the adventures of Fred Figglehorn, a character created and played by Lucas Cruikshank for Cruikshank's YouTube channel, and it is the first film in the Fred trilogy. The film casts Siobhan Fallon Hogan and John Cena as Fred's parents and pop singer and actress Pixie Lott as Fred's crush Judy.
Fred Figglehorn, an unpopular, hyperactive 15-year-old who wears childish dungarees, striped T-shirts and suspenders, believes himself to be cool and a good singer. He is in love with a girl named Judy, and is devastated to see her performing a romantic duet with his rival Kevin during a music class. Following this, Fred aspires to one day sing his own duet with Judy. After an attempt to dig his way to her house to avoid harassment by Kevin, Fred discovers that she has moved, so he throws a massive tantrum by tearing up his living room and later cleaning it up. Thus, Fred embarks on a journey to find Judy's new house and sing with her there.
During the quest, Fred encounters a myriad of characters including a Hispanic man who doesn't speak English; a talking deer; a bedraggled childhood friend who had gotten lost in the forest years earlier (known as Little Evan Weiss); a neighbourhood girl named Bertha; and a boy named Derf with a personality diametrically opposite to his own. Eventually arriving at Judy's home, Fred discovers that she is hosting a party to which he was not invited. Fred is bullied by her guests for his poor social standing at school, and his eccentric personality. Kevin then shoves a pizza onto Fred's shirt, causing him to unintentionally vomit on Judy's party dress. Miserable, Fred leaves the house and is infuriated to find that Kevin has posted a video of him vomiting on Judy on YouTube. In an attempt to get revenge, Fred decides to throw a party of his own to which no one will be invited. To deceive others into believing that he has held a spectacular house party, Fred invites Bertha over, where they costume mannequins in different outfits and clown around while filming the proceedings. Fred alters the video of the fake party and posts it on the internet, whereupon his peers are misled into believing that Fred and Bertha actually held an extraordinary party. Following this, Judy visits Fred's house and asks if the two may sing together, and Fred accepts the request.#
