Does Watching Violent Movies Make People Think Violent Thoughts? was a science project by Rodrick Heffley prior to Rodrick Rules. The goal of the project was if watching violent movies affect the subject's thoughts on violence.
But Greg Heffley claimed the project was just a loophole for Rodrick and his friends to watch movies on school nights. Rodrick only did the experiment and doesn't write anything down. If Rodrick fails this project, that meant he would have to attend summer school. This got Greg, Frank Heffley, and Susan Heffley to finish the project. Greg was assigned to draw pictures but when Susan found his drawings "disturbing", she banned him from watching non G-rated movies. Although the project was finished, Rodrick had left his movies which ended up playing to Manny Heffley. Manny then proceeds to create drawings that even gave Greg nightmares effectively answering the project's central question.
In the online book, Frank was also drawing alongside Greg. The project ends up barely passing Rodrick who didn't acknowledge his family's work.[1]
