@@DustTheOtterWell the coraline doll ends up appearing in the grandma’s house if I remember correctly so I’m sure the beldam saw how she looked like through the doll’s eyes.

@@worldsdarkest no I don't think that's weird at all! I started out with game theory because I watched it before they started making film theory, but I think matpat really shines in all forms
@@worldsdarkest nope there all technically the same channel just different vids like film theory is about films food theory is about food game theory is about game and other stuff
I noticed that there is one detail in the end scene that makes this whole theory fall apart like the Roman Empire: It’s DAYTIME. It’s always night in the other world, and the Beldam can’t control that
If she’s stuck in Beldam’s world, the cat will be the first to warn her. 2nd, without the children’s eyeballs, Beldam can’t recreate the world as well as before. 3rd, the cloud hands scattered showing the sun, she did escaped from Beldam’s claws.
i thought the reason the other mother stopped looking like coraline's real mother was because her magic and energy was depleating because she hadn't eaten
What if also because coraline stopped recognizing her as her mother and started seeing her as she was, a sneaky predator/spider. There's a question of whether or not the mom we see in the end is her real mom or not because we know that the other mother has more detailed disguises, but she also could've actually stolen the parents and other residents potentially. If that were the case, the boss battle could be read as forcing growth like... So my relationship with my mom has always sucked but I recently moved out against her wishes and moved back in with her and now our relationship has changed and we're kinda getting along. It was circumstantial but I made the decision of my own freewill and, whether or not things are any different, they feel different and I'm happier because of the trial. I wonder if this upcoming sequel is real
You forgot to mention how the other mother could only replicate the house and a bit of the outside world, yet at the end of the movie you see Coraline going far beyond what she could replicate just fine
@@alessandro10127and yet she didn’t. She only created what she wanted Coraline to see. that’s not the case in the end, leavening one to conclude that she did escape.
@@alessandro10127This is like my fav theory so far. I was actually so intrigued lol. Now I think about it, thinking when Coraline found the doll for the parents and how she saw her parents trapped in the mirror. That was definitely an illusion to lure Coraline back into the web.
Actually in the book it is written that she actually went through that black door to the real world (her other mother and father said to her to come back soon) but she did not found her mum when she actually reached her real world. It's all from the novel itself. We should not forget that the movie was based on the novel coarline
I believe it was part of the initial design of the estate. There are theories suggesting that the Belldam was a human in the 1800s when the Pink Palace was built and that she was one of the original owners. Somehow, she found the other world and began to alter it to her will and began luring children to the other world, like a purple man in a rabbit suit asking children to follow him in an old pizzeria with animatronics that are about to gain some dead weight as a way to remain immortal. It’s possible the cat was also human at one point too.
I think you guys are reading to much into it, the other mother can’t changer here eyes (it’s one of her few limitations), and the cat has always been able to walk between the worlds. The only reason way things seem happier at the end is because now Coraline can appreciate what she has
All the Bedlam made for Coraline was the house and the immediate surrounding terrain - she walks around the whole world and that's all there is. Don't you think she would have noticed pretty quick upon her return that the world beyond was just as empty, if she never left? Also the cat is uh......magic, bro. It's just a fact. He moves between the two worlds. Thus can disappear behind a signpost if he gd wants.
exactly people are just making theories that doesn't make sense to the plot and purposefully omitting crucial information to further frame the theory as fact
There's also a chance that was the point of the nothingness or whatever it is called: to make the Beldam vulnerable, make it seem weak, when in reality she wasn't. It think some stuff in the movie were made specifically to make us ask questions and make theories. That is part of the fun in this movie, all the possibilities Edit: not to mention the seasons are really weird. It was autumn at the start of the movie and then spring by the end. We know time is being bended by the Beldam due to the way it moved during their games. When Coraline thought she lost the eye and it was over, the time just....stopped. Why? The Beldam also literally teleported when they made the rules, just..dissappeared. She is more powerful than it seems. Y'all say there's proof and reason to everything being ok and Coraline being in the real world, but i only see the weird things happening. Wybe's grams never let people with kids move out till Coraline came? Why? Wybe was at the standard age of being taken by the Beldam, our girl could've been a sacrifice. We know the Beldam gets her power once at every 30-40 years(the kid's clothes, the years in the candy), so very possible, otherwise, why would they script that? Why would they put it in the movie too.
Imagine a teaser for coraline 2 where she says "I never truly escaped didn't I?" And the camera pans to her mother's eyes slowly morphing into buttons.
Actually, in the book when she first goes in the tunnel it is short, while when escapes she says the tunnel was way longer than before and was going uphill, like if it wanted to keep her inside.
actually in the book it’s said that the black cat can just travel through the worlds on his own, when coraline asks him in the book if he goes through the door he says no, disappears behind the tree, and then comes back to her a few moments later (not from the house) he’s always been able to do that, it’s how he gets in and out
exactly what i was thinking lmaoo i remember when the theorizer would constantly be uploading them and i would get so excited when a new video dropped on it 😂
Been years since I watch this movie I’ve been hoping for a part 2 due to me seeing that cat and the end going through the portal really left me on a cliffhanger
Imagine at the end of the movie after you see everything Coraline has been through and you see the black cat fading and what happened it says on a poster “Coraline Jones missing” And this whole time she was missing after she went into that portal.
That wouldn't make any sense since she would be in the other world and there wouldn't be a missing poster because she's technically not missing there lol
I think she never escaped to, cause when the mom said: "you're right coraline, I really hate dirt" cause coraline told the other mother that her real mom hated dirt, and she said we love dirt here!, plus bobinsky and the other two were calling her by her right name
Coraline did go back to her own world, and you can tell this by one big feature: buttons. Every single living thing in the Other Mother's world has button eyes since those are markers of her control over whatever has them. Because Coraline goes back to a world with no button eyes on anyone, that means she did return to her world after going to sleep and did escape the Other Mother by the end of the movie.
Adding onto this, I've seen theories that the cat is actually a different being than anything we know of. It can clearly traverse through worlds and can talk, which is odd. Plus, it immediately knew the mice in the other world were an illusion and tracked them down. Neither the other mother or anyone in the real world other than Coraline, that I'm aware of, never sees the cat or acknowledges it. Seems like it's possibly from another world entirely. One could assume this is just because it's "a kid's movie" (doubtful) and "every hero has an animal friend or sidekick" but I like to think the cat is from a different world.
I think she did, mainly because of the grandmother making an appearance at the end. The other mother mad copies of everyone in the house and the realm of influence was only the house. The grandmother in her old age Coraline never meet until the very end.
@@CountessRose yeah but look at the top comments, it's a row of hearts all the way down for nearly 70 comments but this one is purposefully missed out on
Man I remember the first time I watched coralline I was traumatized, cause that was literally my WORST nightmare, not to mention just the way her parents and everything seemed to be I was almost crying
She won and she is free though. The other mother created what she though it would impress Coraline. In the scene where Coraline and the cat were walking she said that it was supposed to be a well there, it wasn't. Also, how would the om (other mother) be there if she was in her world, the door was locked and her hand was thrown in the well?? She wouldn't let Coraline and Wybie just throw her hand. Going out of the portal it's pretty logical and I personally thought (the 1st time I watched it) that she will go to her home this way. Probably has 2 or more ways to get out. Moreover, Wybie's grandma appeared in the end ready to hear what Coraline has to say and she knew something was off because it happened with her twin sister. There's a lot that can show that Coraline got back to the real world but there's a lot of theories too. Just my opinion here↑.
@Tombst0ne He kinda does though. He cherry picks facts, ignore others, and butchers evidence to prove his point, not to mention he did a theory on a game he never played before about a prominent character of that game (Teddy is Yuu's Shadow theory)
Coraline never really enters the other world until the third time. Its the only time shes actually awake she even says sth like "I knew it was real" clearly hinting that the visits before have been some sort of dream. What further proofs this is that the other mother doesnt let Coraline escape as soon as she really enters also Coraline tried sleeping through it just like in her dreams but cause shes not sleeping it doesnt work.... Like folks come on theories are fun and all but this one just seems bulletproof.
When I was a kid, I remember watching this with my then bff. We were holding each other, curled up into a ball in the corner of the couch because we were so scared😂 Good times. Still love this movie and always will ;)
When she goes to sleep in the morning she randomly teleports back to her normal mother👁👄👁 Edit: thank you so much guys for these likes I never got this much in my life!!
She can't be dead, the ghost children said that Coraline was in grave danger and that the beldam would stop at nothing to get the key. I think she's just regrouping and trying to figure out how to get the key to open the door again. With that being said, I would not want to go back there if I was the cat 😅
@@Mia-gl9gf she will die. she needs children's souls to live, and coraline was her last chance. The beldam even said "I'll die without you." because she won't be able to eat any more children.
The only problem with that is, she falls asleep the second time she goes to the other world too. Maybe the other mother turns into that spider and carries her to the real dimension right before sunrise. Ooooh gave myself chills lol
“The act differently after!!!1!!!!1” The literally just moved. The started a new point in their life, and are finally getting used to it. Of course they are gonna act a bit different????
I do believe this. This is bc at the end of the movie, the cat seemed to disappear which seemed like he was using magic which would not be possible in the normal world. You also see the mirror illusion which means the other mother must be using magic in the “normal world” which I don’t think is possible. Also have you noticed that at the end of the movie when it zooms out on the garden it is in the shape of the bedlam whereas in the other world it is in the shape of coraline. Also at the start of the movie there is no leaves on the trees but at the end there is. I believe that coraline never escaped the other world and is trapped and the other mother is ju st posing as her “real mother.” Anyway, this is just a theory, have a good day.
What's good proof of her not escaping is how the ending garden looks like the other mother and suddenly things are blooming when it shouldn't be- making coraline think she's safe
I also think the other mother had control of that exit as well. For the first two nights, Coraline was able to make it back to her world, but you’ll notice that as the other mother and father panned out of the scene, the other mother sat wherever the doll was in the old world. That’s how she “spied” on Coraline. And, on the third night, when the other mother told her about sewing buttons on her eyes, Coraline said that she wanted to go to bed right away. The other mother knew what was up, and she didn’t want to let Coraline go, so she may have fallen asleep, but she woke up still in the other world.
"Coraline doesnt even go through the portal back to her own reality. She just simply goes to sleep." A few seconds later "And when she does go back through the portal..." Uh, might wanna rethink this. You cant have it both ways.
Actually the reason why the mother says “you were right coralline I really hate dirt”is because coralline mentions that the rain is the perfect time to garden
Okay but you’re forgetting a crucial detail: the pocket reality has limits. VERY tight limits. She can’t even get to the old well in the pocket dimension. But after the first night, she goes SHOPPING with her mom. That’s just a bit farther than the well.😉
Exactly! The other mother was not able to make a world outside of those limits. AND she couldn’t make ppl WITHOUT button eyes for it how they were able to see. When the cat removes the other mothers eyes she hold them as if she can’t see. Also the other world IF YOU READ THE BOOK 🤦🏽♀️ has different entrances [portals if you will]throughout the real world that the mother can use to spy on coraline. The cat with his far superior senses can sense and use the entrances to jump between world. He “comes and goes as [he] pleases” 😊
She keeps going deeper Into the trap because when she wakes up she’s back in her world so she keeps going deeper and deeper so that she thinks she’s in her world but is now stuck in the other one forever Edit: I typed this before watching the video lol
She goes to a shop in the real world that is out of bounds of what the beldam can conjure inside her dimension. The beldam couldn't have posed as the real mother anymore because she was losing her control on her illusions and that's why she was SO desperate to catch coraline. As for the cat disappearing, idk. The cat could be just another powerful entity or smth.
Freaking cried first time i watched it, when I was younger- never really liked that movie, probably never will, but honestly, that's just sad- Edit: why does this have 227 likes, why-
They should make a second one that says Back to the past.. so we learn about the other 3 souls or one where Coraline moves out and comes back after years of moving out with her kid and her kid finds the other mother
The other world was never destroyed, the portals was only closed. But the cat even says that there's portals even the Beldam doesn't know about so they could very well stay open as she wouldn't be able to close what she didn't know existed. And how did the cat get to and from the other world without the door? We know he's been going there long before coraline unlocked the door and, in his lifetime, she would have likely have been the only person to open the door he gives many hints about his past times with her and how they play a "game" where she finds and closes the portal he used to keep him out. The portals are definitely still open. Whybie (or how you spell his name) would also never have come to save coraline from the hand (in the movie version as he didn't exist in the book or graphic novel) as the Beldam controls all the creatures like puppets. She wouldn't have brought him back after she killed him. And the grandmother is also proof. The Beldam wouldn't have made a copy of someone Coraline has never met and likely didn't even expect to come to their little garden party. Also the Beldam wouldn't have made her as she only focused on creating the immediate area, and didn't bother with anything else so the grandmother being there is proof of escape. For this theory to have stable ground, I think there needs to be more proof than "the parents seem off because her mom agreed with coraline" or "The portals are still open" (which makes perfect sense if you paid attention to what the cat says)

I think she never escaped to, cause when the mom said: "you're right coraline, I really hate dirt" cause coraline told the other mother that her real mom hated dirt, and she said we love dirt here!, plus bobinsky and the other two were calling her by her right name
The creepy thing is that when I finished watching coraline, I found a "secret" cabinet that I didn't know about. I never opened it again.
Oh heck no
Bro move out. Now. 💀💀💀
I found a small door in my room.. I used it as a flex when I was younger and told people it was a secret room.
MOVE HOUSES BRO
@@twice4504 I have one in my closest and its sealed shut.
Coraline did go back to her own world, and you can tell this by one big feature: buttons. Every single living thing in the Other Mother's world has button eyes since those are markers of her control over whatever has them. Because Coraline goes back to a world with no button eyes on anyone, that means she did return to her world after going to sleep and did escape the Other Mother by the end of the movie.
this is a really good point thank you!!
Except, when she went back to find her parents she meets the Other mother disguised as her real mother, whose eyes are normal until she drops the act.
That's what I was going to say: The button eyes
Also the size of the universe
Adding onto this, I've seen theories that the cat is actually a different being than anything we know of. It can clearly traverse through worlds and can talk, which is odd. Plus, it immediately knew the mice in the other world were an illusion and tracked them down. Neither the other mother or anyone in the real world other than Coraline, that I'm aware of, never sees the cat or acknowledges it. Seems like it's possibly from another world entirely.
One could assume this is just because it's "a kid's movie" (doubtful) and "every hero has an animal friend or sidekick" but I like to think the cat is from a different world.
I swear the beldam and pennywise is the same creature ngl
THATS JUST A THEORY A FLIM THEORY got me dying💀
This film was underrated. Creepy, but still enjoyable.
i was so scared to watch it as a 5-7 yr old
I don’t think it’s underrated lmao
i dont think its underrated since it has a huge fan base for the movie
SO TRUE
Scared me more than actual horror films
I think she did, mainly because of the grandmother making an appearance at the end. The other mother mad copies of everyone in the house and the realm of influence was only the house. The grandmother in her old age Coraline never meet until the very end.
The creator hearted every comment besides yours so that confirms something 💀
You sure that was her realm limit? Or was that what the other mother wanted coraline to think…
@@Poetawesomendo nah it would've been useful to use while coraline was in the other world so no reason to not use it if she had it
@@justsomeguywholikeswater3566 that the UA-cam notification system for comment threads is a joke.
@@CountessRose yeah but look at the top comments, it's a row of hearts all the way down for nearly 70 comments but this one is purposefully missed out on
It’s hilarious how easy this theory is to debunk!
Man I remember the first time I watched coralline I was traumatized, cause that was literally my WORST nightmare, not to mention just the way her parents and everything seemed to be I was almost crying
“Even if u win she’ll never let you go”
True
She won and she is free though. The other mother created what she though it would impress Coraline.
In the scene where Coraline and the cat were walking she said that it was supposed to be a well there, it wasn't.
Also, how would the om (other mother) be there if she was in her world, the door was locked and her hand was thrown in the well??
She wouldn't let Coraline and Wybie just throw her hand.
Going out of the portal it's pretty logical and I personally thought (the 1st time I watched it) that she will go to her home this way. Probably has 2 or more ways to get out.
Moreover, Wybie's grandma appeared in the end ready to hear what Coraline has to say and she knew something was off because it happened with her twin sister.
There's a lot that can show that Coraline got back to the real world but there's a lot of theories too.
Just my opinion here↑.

😂
The way I just got finished watching Coraline 😭
Coraline never really enters the other world until the third time. Its the only time shes actually awake she even says sth like "I knew it was real" clearly hinting that the visits before have been some sort of dream.
What further proofs this is that the other mother doesnt let Coraline escape as soon as she really enters also Coraline tried sleeping through it just like in her dreams but cause shes not sleeping it doesnt work.... Like folks come on theories are fun and all but this one just seems bulletproof.
When I was a kid, I remember watching this with my then bff. We were holding each other, curled up into a ball in the corner of the couch because we were so scared😂 Good times. Still love this movie and always will ;)
not trying to be rude but are we sure that "then" and "bff" (best friend FOREVER) belongs in the same sentence?

When she goes to sleep in the morning she randomly teleports back to her normal mother👁👄👁

True!
i think she actually was sent back there by her other mother to establish trust between her and the other world
@@samanthamccray2705 what about when she goes to the other world when it’s day time
Thank you so much for these likes
The mice carried her through the portal back after she fell asleep. Life temporarily gets better. The cat in the end has always been magical.
HELP NOT THE MATPAT JUMPSCARE 😭
"the Fangirl" UA-cam channel explains this perfectly and in real depth. (it's a pretty great watch)
Yez!!
The cat leaving actually represents that the cat can now travel threw universes freely with no fear because the bedlam died.
The cat already was able to travel between realms freely
Beldam
@@torihall1324but without fear or annoyance with the burden of the beldam
She can't be dead, the ghost children said that Coraline was in grave danger and that the beldam would stop at nothing to get the key. I think she's just regrouping and trying to figure out how to get the key to open the door again. With that being said, I would not want to go back there if I was the cat 😅
@@Mia-gl9gf she will die. she needs children's souls to live, and coraline was her last chance. The beldam even said "I'll die without you." because she won't be able to eat any more children.
At the end, when it zooms out on the garden, it looks like the beldam.
The only problem with that is, she falls asleep the second time she goes to the other world too.
Maybe the other mother turns into that spider and carries her to the real dimension right before sunrise.
Ooooh gave myself chills lol
when it was at the end i yelled “A FILM THEROY”
“The act differently after!!!1!!!!1”
The literally just moved. The started a new point in their life, and are finally getting used to it. Of course they are gonna act a bit different????
How did you miss the word “they” twice🧐
@@londongarrett3504 I don’t know. I suck hella ass at typing.
@@londongarrett3504 thrice*
@Burger King ofc I'm not bouta make a fit about it people make mistakes
@@londongarrett3504 but its important to point them out sometimes, so people know that they are making mistakes
I do believe this. This is bc at the end of the movie, the cat seemed to disappear which seemed like he was using magic which would not be possible in the normal world. You also see the mirror illusion which means the other mother must be using magic in the “normal world” which I don’t think is possible. Also have you noticed that at the end of the movie when it zooms out on the garden it is in the shape of the bedlam whereas in the other world it is in the shape of coraline. Also at the start of the movie there is no leaves on the trees but at the end there is. I believe that coraline never escaped the other world and is trapped and the other mother is ju st posing as her “real mother.”
Anyway, this is just a theory, have a good day.
What's good proof of her not escaping is how the ending garden looks like the other mother and suddenly things are blooming when it shouldn't be- making coraline think she's safe
I literally watched the first half hour yesterday (couldn’t see more) and tbh it’s kind of confusing still? Idk
Finishing the movie will probably help that for you lol
@@tristanneal9552 yeah but a third into a movie you usually have gotten to know the main characters yknow
@@Miipmiip it’s not that hard to remember the main characters mum dad coralline and *cat*
@@YesAmGod yeah but then there are other ppl so are there other cat, other guy, other mice?
@@Miipmiip forgot about them sos
My theory is that the bed is a secondary exit but you can’t use the bed like the wormhole
I also think the other mother had control of that exit as well. For the first two nights, Coraline was able to make it back to her world, but you’ll notice that as the other mother and father panned out of the scene, the other mother sat wherever the doll was in the old world. That’s how she “spied” on Coraline. And, on the third night, when the other mother told her about sewing buttons on her eyes, Coraline said that she wanted to go to bed right away. The other mother knew what was up, and she didn’t want to let Coraline go, so she may have fallen asleep, but she woke up still in the other world.
man the cat is just a cartoon character in 3d thats why it can go through stuff without being on the other side
"Coraline doesnt even go through the portal back to her own reality. She just simply goes to sleep."
A few seconds later
"And when she does go back through the portal..."
Uh, might wanna rethink this. You cant have it both ways.
this is such a reach lmao. any theory that heavily relies on the fact that something could’ve happened off camera is a weak theory

The other mother offered coraline to the other mother which is why wybie was never allowed in the pink palace...

Okay but you’re forgetting a crucial detail: the pocket reality has limits. VERY tight limits. She can’t even get to the old well in the pocket dimension. But after the first night, she goes SHOPPING with her mom. That’s just a bit farther than the well.😉
Exactly! The other mother was not able to make a world outside of those limits. AND she couldn’t make ppl WITHOUT button eyes for it how they were able to see. When the cat removes the other mothers eyes she hold them as if she can’t see. Also the other world IF YOU READ THE BOOK 🤦🏽♀️ has different entrances [portals if you will]throughout the real world that the mother can use to spy on coraline. The cat with his far superior senses can sense and use the entrances to jump between world. He “comes and goes as [he] pleases” 😊
Also, the garden at the end is shaped like the Other Mother's face.
It’s also shaped like that at the beginning, when you first see Coraline
Im glad the creator is in charge of this
"A FILM--"
THE SACRED TEXTS HAVE BEEN TOUCHED
There’s definitely a lot of clues Neil Gaiman planted in the book that she never left. That’s the beauty of the story, you can believe what you want.

Exactly… Neil gaiman is the best.
i used to watch this when i was 2😅
I love it when someone makes a matpat quote!
The moment you said “hey thats just a theory” i was like
Mattpat we found your brother
She keeps going deeper Into the trap because when she wakes up she’s back in her world so she keeps going deeper and deeper so that she thinks she’s in her world but is now stuck in the other one forever
Edit: I typed this before watching the video lol
When i hear creepy story im like fuc.k
She goes to a shop in the real world that is out of bounds of what the beldam can conjure inside her dimension. The beldam couldn't have posed as the real mother anymore because she was losing her control on her illusions and that's why she was SO desperate to catch coraline. As for the cat disappearing, idk. The cat could be just another powerful entity or smth.

never really liked that movie, probably never will, but honestly, that's just sad-

I First watched it at the age of 7 or 8 and for some reason I didn’t get scared, though the ghost children scene did creep me out for some time.
Thanks, now I'm going to have nightmares. The movie was creepy enough, but the idea that she never really escaped is mortifying.
They should make a second one that says Back to the past.. so we learn about the other 3 souls or one where Coraline moves out and comes back after years of moving out with her kid and her kid finds the other mother
"BuT tHaT's JuSt ThEoRy A fIlM tHeOrY"
I loved Coraline and haves watched it multiple times throughout me life. But damn, I’ve never thought of this before
THE OUTRO 😭
“THATS JUST A THEORY A FILM THEORY” THANKS FOR WA-
EXACTLY THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING 😮😢
The other world was never destroyed, the portals was only closed. But the cat even says that there's portals even the Beldam doesn't know about so they could very well stay open as she wouldn't be able to close what she didn't know existed.
And how did the cat get to and from the other world without the door? We know he's been going there long before coraline unlocked the door and, in his lifetime, she would have likely have been the only person to open the door he gives many hints about his past times with her and how they play a "game" where she finds and closes the portal he used to keep him out. The portals are definitely still open.
Whybie (or how you spell his name) would also never have come to save coraline from the hand (in the movie version as he didn't exist in the book or graphic novel) as the Beldam controls all the creatures like puppets. She wouldn't have brought him back after she killed him.
And the grandmother is also proof. The Beldam wouldn't have made a copy of someone Coraline has never met and likely didn't even expect to come to their little garden party. Also the Beldam wouldn't have made her as she only focused on creating the immediate area, and didn't bother with anything else so the grandmother being there is proof of escape.
For this theory to have stable ground, I think there needs to be more proof than "the parents seem off because her mom agreed with coraline" or "The portals are still open" (which makes perfect sense if you paid attention to what the cat says)
