Anyone else underwhelmed with his reveal?
Him being a complete jackass who emotionally and physically abused Eddy felt like a weird copout so that the movie could have an actual villain and give the cul-de-sac kids a reason to forgive the Eds. He never struck me as a complete sociopath, but more a prankster who gets off on playing tricks. I'm sure he probably bullied Eddy, but him being the reason why Eddy always pulled off scams rather than Eddy just being a bored kid felt like a retcon, same for everything about him being a lie.
