Even when I first saw "Roll, Freddy, Roll" as an 11-year-old fan of anything starring Tim Conway, something puzzled me. Sure, I enjoyed Tim as always. And the climax where he's rolling through the streets like "Bullitt" on roller skates is amazing. But I just couldn't figure out the ex-wife and kid. I mean, Freddy's rival for his son's attention is a car dealer during an oil crisis ... while Freddy designs mainframe computers before anyone even knows what they are! So it's pretty obvious who the cool dad really is. If the ex and the kid are really that shallow, we need a sequel to set things straight - one where Freddy's a billionaire with a half-dozen IPOs under his belt, preferably roller blading with his third trophy wife.
