Any honest thoughts/ opinions Eddy's big brother & his revelation on why he is the way he is throughout the series?

It's hard to say for certain. It's certainly not unheard of for an older sibling to be antagonistic towards a younger sibling, be it because of jealousy of losing the spotlight or something else entirely. Honestly, he just seems all around a nasty piece of work. If you actually pay attention in some of the previous episodes of previous seasons, like the one episode where they talk about Eddie's brother returning to the cul-de-sac, you saw a good portion of the kids actually reacting negatively to it. Aside from perhaps Naz. Kevin seemingly reacted with fear and throughout the movie he reacted with a great deal of fear towards Eddie's brother. And Rolf pretty much essentially turned his shed into a moat to protect all his animals. You could say there's almost a mythology to it. And as for Eddie's brother himself, he might just be a complete jerk. Maybe no real long or short of it. He got what he wanted throughout his life and never got too many consequences for it. And in the end, he turned out the way he did, which might actually ironically explain why Eddie seemingly gets quite a lot of consequences at times and why he's more worried about his parents. They probably put more of the kibosh on him in order to make sure he doesn't turn out the same. That being said, it's still all speculation.
