What happened too Josh's and Susan's lives after Big


Josh was boy of 12 who transformed into a man of 30 he met Susan who was like 26 then got into a relationship with her if he stayed with her long enough like another 2 years would they eventually get married and have a child together and get divorced after 3 years since decided too change back to into a boy of 17,By the time the child a boy is 12 he will be 26,I wonder if Josh would have developed a taste in Older Women and Susan developed in taste in Younger Men,By the time Josh is really 30 would he still remember Susan and would have forgot about her and moved on with his life a married a Older woman Susan would be 44 by than married too a man close too the age Josh transformer into.

Scenario B) Susan goes back to the Zoltar Machine and decides to follow Josh back to her childhood. She loves Josh so much, she wants to be with him. She goes back to junior high.


I thought I read somewhere that this WAS in one of the scripts or was a filmed alternate ending...

Josh goes to class, Susan gets introduced as "Susan" (the New Girl), and Josh recognizes her as his "Susan", and smiles. The End.

I tried looking for alternate ending of big I couldn't find it on YouTube.

reply

There is no alternate ending. People are getting this movie mixed up with a made for tv movie called "14 Going on 30" (which came out a few months before "Big". You can view this movie on you tube and see the ending.

A 30 and 44 year old could easily be together- so maybe they both wait. Having other relationships in the meantime, that never quite work out.
They've both been married and divorced. She has kids...
But they end up together....

My question is would he go back to the toy company and try to get his job back?

Would they say boy you haven't aged a bit?

Would he knowing that the Zoltar machine actually grated wishes eventually go back to it and make another wish for something else?

If I was him and knew it actually granted wishes I'd buy the machine for any amount of money they asked for and once I became an adult I'd wish to be a kid again. Lol

I'd wonder what Josh's work colleagues would think, suddenly he disappeared without trace. He seemed to be held in high regard at MacMillans.

Susan would have to make up some excuse, as they'd be asking lots of questions of his whereabouts.

reply

Yes, she may say he quite or left. He had an apartment so she have to make it seem he was gone.
