And that's not even the REAL theory behind the shining. Yes, a lot of Apollo references are seen, but that's nothing more than trolling to let those who notice them that he thinks it's funny that people think he faked the landing. As for the theory, it is believed that Wendy is the deranged one, who suffers from schizophrenia and manic depression. Being stuck at that hotel for so long and during the winter only intensified her episodes sending her into a killing frenzy
"Since 1962, several different actors have stepped into the role of James Bond without a single recast joke being made." "This never happened to the other fellow." - George Lazenby, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, 1969
1moreastronaut I think the James Bond theory is bs because Blofeld doesnt age either, and the movies arent in the right order. Take villains that are in the movies more than once. Blofeld is the best example because he was in You Only Live Twice (5th movie, late 1960s) and he was in Spectre (recently made)
Well, what I think is that each Bond actor is in a different universe where he was born in a different time. Fleming's is in one timeline, Moore's in in another, and so on so forth.
cinlocybin It also seems to me that a lot of his new inventions were unsafe.Everlasting Gobstoppers? Easy to break a tooth.Fizzy lifting drinks? Severe gas pains and bloating, not to mention the socially unpleasant side effects.Gum that contains a full course meal? Several problems with that one.A glass booth that has a button that will do something that he's not sure about?Just look in his eyes. They scream: "CRAZY"!
cinlocybin He was also a peado and spent several years in prison which is where he earned the disgusting nickname 'Willy Wonka' (real name: Wilfred Hardington)
Wonka planned it all by studying them all when they appeared in the news, and the only reason Charlie lived because he only got the ticket on the day before they went in the factory and didn't get time to prepare, but he tried with the fan blades.
I think Wonka seemed genuinely hurt and shocked by Charlie's participation in the stealing of fizzy lifting drinks. It's literally the only time in the entire movie he gets angry or seems even remotly shocked/awed/agitated. He's calm and smug during the rest of the movie. But I also think that was an act too. The entire plot is to give the factory to a child who will respect it as wonka did... no one who would give away the secrets etc would fit that bill. Wonka set charlie up the entire time. The other kids were just a red-herring. Wonka shows them fizzy lifting drinks then just moves on and even looks at uncle joe and charlie when they rejoin the group. Wonka proceeds to dress-down Charlie and uncle joe says "if slugworth wants a gobstopper he'll get one". Charlie turns and gives it back as though he himself doesn't think he deserves it and doesn't want slugworth to get his hands on it. This is what wonka wanted, planned out, and was waiting for the entire time. For the record, the glass elevator is simply a metaphor for the limits we perceive in our life and breaking through them... for charlie this meant both getting out of poverty and literally breaking through a "glass ceiling".
Here's a Titanic/The Great Gatsby theory I heard: Jack Dawson, a poor man in 1912 manages to get aboard the Titanic, and meets Rose, who is rich. He gains a taste for the finer things in life. He pockets the Heart of the Ocean, and when the boat sinks, he is presumed dead but survives. He pawns the Heart of the Ocean, and uses that as a foundation for building his wealth as Jay Gatsby, a millionaire with a shady past and a fear of swimming pools.
The 007 theory gets blown out when they reveal his parents' graves in Skyfall and their last names are also Bond, no matter how much I wish it was true!
Hybrid Network Maybe they only get people with the last name Bond to be James Bond. Or the parents have to change their names too in order to protect them. Imagine if your kid disappears into nowhere forever? The parents would make a big fuss! So in order to keep the parents quiet, they let them know about James Bond... So they become "Bond parents" with special government protection.
Hybrid Network Plus, George Lazenby makes a joke about "the other guy" that I believe is Sean Connery. Take a look at the beginning of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". It's a joke about changing actors.
the reason the room number was changed in the shining was because the hotel they used for filming some parts did not want a real room number that they had in case it stopped guests from staying at their hotel. so kubrick used 237 since they did not have that room
evil samm and you will find the no.237 in many Stephen kings novel. In Rita Hayworth (Shawshank redemption) Andy’s cell no. Is 237 and in stand by me the kids have exactly $2.37 for food.
Grease is set in purgatory, not in a dream. Sandy is experiencing the joys and sorrows of love via Danny her guardian angle. The T-Birds have "Wings" on their backs while the Scorpions are affiliated with fire making them demons. Rizo and Kenickie are the more "mischievous" ones who take this "Experience" as a chance to have some sexual fun and Rizo is tempted by one of the Scorpions (Hence the whole pregnancy and guilt situation).
can't be true. in part 2 the main character is related to sandy and frenchy returns to finish the stint she missed while in beauty school. Frenchy and Michael have a short conversation about sandy going back to australia. Similarly, in the first one frenchy has an actual guardian angel via franky avalon. why would they give frenchy a guardian angel if this is purgatory? The scorpions don't really play a large role in part 1. They (including the original leader) appear more in the second but more as a reason for the song and dance scene where michael owns them all with his newly found (yet vastly superior) motorcycle skills.
Jack Dawson being made up would be more believable if he only appeared around Rose, but he clearly had a back story with scenes dedicated to solely him
+Anthony Sanchez + there were many things he did that had impact... I think this one clearly shouldn't be on the list. Jar Jar Sith Lord is way better theory :D
+Pavel Hranáč (Blacknet) some people think that rose was Sarah Connors grandmother and she originally died on titanic and so jack (a future human resistance fighter) is sent back to save her. If you do the research a lot of things jack did and knew about were not present or even invented in 1912 and since james Cameron directed terminator and titanic it's pretty clever
Here's something that'll blow your mind even more: Boo had a Jessie doll in Monster's Inc. Given that there is no real way of telling when exactly the movie took place in relation to the human world, Boo could very well be Emily _and_ Andy's mom!
I would say its possibly full of gold. I mean, when the restraunt robber was looking at it, his face was illuminated with a golden light. The briefcase was giving off golden light, so its highly possible that its full of gold
The "Back to the Future" theory doesn't make sense. Doc was wearing a bulletproof vest because of Marty's note about the Libyans. This means he knew the machine would work. That's the reason he stood in front of it with Marty.
If he was suicidal, why would he bother to put on the vest if he knew he got shot? And furthermore, why would he endanger marty? It's all weird because it's time-related but the series of events don't work out the way this conspiracy says. If he was warned by marty back in '55, he knew it worked in '85
Steev He didn't have a vest on at the beginning of the movie. It wasn't until Marty used the DeLorean to go back in time and give him the letter that tells him what's going to happen, that he gets a vest. Back to the Future works with timelines, not one consistent timeline, they explain that in Back to the Future 2.
Am I the only one who thought the case in pulp fiction was just full of gold? I mean it glows gold and he is a gangster. Not to mention it makes sense since why would a bunch of kids steal a mans soul?
The atomic weight of gold is nearly 20 times that of water. A briefcase full of gold would be nearly impossible for a body builder to lift without tearing off the handle, let alone a limpwrist like John Travolta.
Zenith Wills"Movie magic" is a great rationalization that the briefcase *does* contain Marcellus' soul. Anyway, the mysterious glowing from the briefcase is an homage to Robert Aldrich's *Kiss Me Deadly* or Luis Bunuel's *Belle D'Jour*: Possibly both (PF is full of allusions to other films). Someone once asked Bunuel, "What was that in the box?". "Anything you want it to be", was his reply. I acknowledge that you have a point that a bunch of kids would not have a likely motivation to steal a briefcase with a soul in it. It might have been a mistake, as they were very apologetic about it. The thing I can't buy about PF is Butch's return to the pawnshop basement to save Marcellus. Marcellus' death would have meant Butch would have been home free to live his life without reprisal.
One Theory I came across which i really like: "Willy Wonka is secretly George Weasley from Harry Potter. After the events of the books, George used wizard time-travel technology (that is, the Time-Turner, a device that is used once and never mentioned again) to go back and start a new life under a new identity. And before George’s brother Fred died (uh, spoiler?), the twins opened a successful toy and candy shop called Weasleys’ Wizarding Wheezes. One of their most popular items was the Skiving Snackbox, candy that would give you a temporary nosebleed or vomiting fit so you could get out of class. In other words, the Weasleys had mastered magic that lets candy physically alter a human being. Like, Violet Beauregarde chewing some gum, expanding and turning... violet. Aside from their candy-making capabilities, there’s also their physical similarities. They’re both redheads with a showman’s sense of fashion. And there’s this comment Wonka makes when miss hearing one of the children, "I'm a trifle deaf in this ear. Speak a little louder next time". Maybe it’s a reference to the fact that George lost an ear battling Death Eaters. He may have been able to alter one of his Extendable Ears to serve as a prosthetic, but he couldn’t repair all the actual hearing damage." Not my theory but one i love!
It would suck though, considering Indiana Jones was a better series than star wars......... and nobody mention crystal skull, or I will mention the prequels
whiteout0111 sry, but as bad as the prequels were....nothing trumps crystal skull when it comes to defiling an epic movie franchise. Even South Park made a whole episode about it being the most horrible, terrible, gut-wrenching, depression inducing thing the kids have ever seen. And even though it's intentionally hyperbole...it rly isn't >_>
I think you messed up the timeline theory. You said it started with Toy Story and ended with Monsters University. It actually starts with Brave and ends with Monsters Inc.
***** If you look up the theory you'll see why Wall-E isn't the last one. The most interesting timeline placement I'd say is A Bug's Life being one of the last films and in the future
Gen. Zod in Man of Steel & Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness are also heroes in their own pov; convinced that all of their actions are totally justified.
1. The Pixar Theory is quite convoluted and doesn't make a lot of sense when you give it half a thought. 2. Stan Lee being The Watcher would be amazing and a good way to end all his cameos before he gets to old. 3. I need to go watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off again because it is a fantastic comedy.
lostfan10000 Fair enough. I remember someone made a fan trailer of a Titanic sequel using footage from Revolutionary Road since Di Caprio was in it with Kate Winslet and the premise was that Jack and Rose were hating married life.
May I suggest the top 10 open-ended movie endings. The endings that are left to the interpretation of the audience like "Lost in Translation" or "Inception".
awesome420ication It's an attractive way to make sense of a lot of narratives, especially fantastic ones. However, the best of those theories are the ones that turn it around, making something that happens in the story real that seems to contradict what we know about the real world, and having the rest of us in denial or amnesia or having been subject to a hoax. For instance, a real historic figure or event becomes a shared delusion or a conspiracy by the chroniclers of history. Then the story becomes an expose.
+awesome420ication I see so many people that think that either EVERY movie one of the characters is a figment of the imagination or was "Dead the whole time".
+godzillavkk sequel !? When was the original !? I think my version [and you may concur with me!!] is that it's a high octane macho version of what CALVIN AND HOBBES is!!
My favorite movie fan theory? Boba Fett Killed Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Let's look at how they died. Their home was burned to the ground. Let's also look at the events that led up to their deaths. We see the sandcrawler that sold C-3PO and R2-D2 got completely demolished after leaving Luke's home. But before all of this there was a fiasco above Tatooine's atmosphere. Now obviously Darth Vader is more than capable of figuring out that the plans to the Death Star were in the escape pod that jettisoned while the Rebel Blockade Runner was boarded. He sent his Sandtroopers to search the pod and they discover that droids were in the pod and they more than likely have the plans. Let's fast-forward. When the Empire was sent on a man-hunt for the Millenium Falcon, they hired bounty hunters, among them are Bossk, Dengar and of course Boba Fett. This shows us that the Sith are not above hiring outside help. Now let's go back to the escape pod. Darth Vader concluded that the plans were with the droids at this point and knew a man-hunt would follow, so he hires Boba Fett to go after them. How does this tie in with the sandcrawler? Remember when Ben said "Those blast points. Too accurate for sand people." Well it goes without saying that the only thing less accurate than sand people are stormtroopers. So who can shoot that accurately? Boba Fett. He traced the tracks of the droids to the sandcrawler and when the Jawas wouldn't cooperate he destroyed them, then he incinerated the insubordinating couple Owen and Beru after he tracked the droids to their location. Do you still need further proof? Let's fast-forward again to the hunt for the Falcon. Darth Vader pretty much tells us directly it was Boba Fett by this monologue: "You may use whatever means necessary but I want them alive." *looks directly at Boba Fett* "No disintegrations."
Only issue I have here is that stromtroopers have near perfect accuracy unless they're shooting at the main characters. Obviously you can't let them kill the main characters off immediately, so they have to miss, (which is always an issue when making movies. Should the bad guys have (apparent) terrible aim, or should we get some disposeable main characters/reason that they can't aim?) but when they're not attacking main characters, they've always had near perfect accuracy.
slifenoa286 I think this was explained somewhere else, other than the debacle at Endor, the only time Stormtroopers weren't obviously superior was when they were letting the hero's escape for whatever reason. The Mos Eisley escape could be explained that they were trying to damage the ship to prevent take-off as killing only Han Solo wouldn't have done anything drastic to their ability to leave. But in the Death Star in particular, it was made clear that they were being allowed to escape so they could be followed to Yavin IV for the Death Star to destroy their base.
That moment when you realize, at the end of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory when Wonka gives his company to charlie AFTER it has killed multiple children, leaving him stuck in court.
The one honorable mention that annoyed me was Totoro as it's not just a fan theory, the story itself is based on the japanese legend that the "theory" was based on.
Lewis Gilmore I don't think mentioning Google exists and that you misused a word makes me intelligent. You have quite a high image of me, I'm flattered.
Jackson Paul Call ME crazy will you? I'll show you who's crazy! Read the first entry on this article, then we'll all see who's crazy: www.cracked.com/article_20347_5-fan-theories-that-make-classic-movies-even-better.html
Not sure if this is a fan theory, but Neo from The Matrix is... In my thought, the combined consciousness of the "good" portion of the machines... They chose to inhabit a human body to understand humanity... Their enemy... And creators. The letters in Neo's name can be reordered to spell One... The name of the machine city. (translated from binary). This also offers an explanation for how Agent Smith learned to jump his consciousness into the real world after his loss to Neo. The final contact with 01 is to reveal who he really is and that his purpose is to bring peace by triumphing over their own darkness (Smith). Especially after the machines realize they have taken unconscionable actions to win the war, just as men had before them. This also means Trinity was the hero of humanity... Not Neo. She teaches the machines love... The portion of the equation they were missing. Peace was finally possible as the two sides finally understood the other. Just a thought...
One the anomaly of the system trying to correct itself... boom you got it! How else would Neo be able to see the matrix as code inside it and control machines outside it. His power goes back to the source of the Machines... it was never a war with humanity it was a war with their own consciousness. The One was never meant to end anything it was to make a new beginning to finally fix the equation that was missing vis a vi love. That was more than just a thought buddy that was the meaning of the Matrix movies that is the meaning of life. LOVE. You are smart sir.
Alright... that was actually pretty fucking good man, bravo. But also one of the complexities and beauties of the Matrix. It's a movie you could look over for 100 years and still have questions about and theories. But yours is probably the best I've seen honestly
Nope, sorry that doesn't make any sense. That would mean he'd have to appear in every Marvel movie ever made. And given his age, he won't be around forever so I doubt he'll live to see the day Spiderman, the X-Men and Fantastic Four go back to Marvel where they belong.
I've always seen Willy Wonka as a serial killer; even when I saw the movie as a kid. To me it just seemed sort of obvious, which is why I find the movie hard to watch as an adult. It's way too dark and it has way too much of a light-hearted exterior. It just makes me uncomfortable.
I like the theories that Andy's parents are divorcing in Toy Story and the theory that Harry Potter imagines his life at Hogwarts whilst he's locked under the stairs at the Dursleys
true that the father is missing in the toy story movies, up to the point of going to college or birthdays, maybe the mom was a widow, it's Disney after all, spouses are a rare
KillaJ4L No, the IT is very heavily flawed, and it goes against what Bioware's core principal of choice. It's also just one theory, I asked if there was enough for a top ten.
The Pixar theory is interesting, and could possibly be true. I like the idea that Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-e, Up and Brave all take place in the same universe. The toys (Toy Story) are alive but only when nobody's watching. The bugs (A Bug's Life) are alive but nobody notices that because they are so small. The monsters (Monsters, Inc. & University) live in a world behind the closet doors. The fish (Finding Nemo) are alive but nobody notices that because it's under the sea. The superheroes (The Incredibles) exist but it's a secret. The rats (Ratatouille) are alive but nobody notices because they never show it. The robots (Wall-e) exist in the future. The house (Up) exist but has not really been confirmed. And Brave could have existed in the past. The only part that doesn't fit in this theory is Cars, I don't see how living Cars (and Planes) could possibly fit in the same universe as all the other movies.
No,it could absolutely not be true. It's in fact so absurd I can barely believe anyone would waste time reading into it. It's very easy to chain every movie in existence together with such silly explanations.
In Pulp Fiction, when Jules tells Ringo the case contains his boss's dirty laundry... what if he's telling the truth, and Marcellus Wallace just has some awe inspiringly nice clothes? xD
That doesn't really prove anything. The prospector told Woody that he was the only one of them that was rare. Even he was worthless out of box. Boo had a Jessie doll, not necessarily that Jessie.
I thought the best theory was that Leo didn't actually die in titanic and woke up on the beach in Inception, meaning the whole Titanic story was a dream and that the whole movie, inception, was also in a dream but he then is actually a multi-millionare in The Great Gratsby which is a bit far-fetch but he dreamt the Titanic because of his love triangle in the Great Gatsby.
Do people really think that James Cameron movies are deep enough to make Jack Dawson an imaginary character? i mean seriously his movies are shallow, filled with plot mistakes, all about the effects and have an unoriginal story.
The Doc Brown theory is ridiculous. Doc Brown wouldn't be depressed considering for a large part of his life he knew he would create the greatest invention mankind would ever see (The Time Machine). He also knew that the time machine would work and that he wasn't going to get run over prior to its successful completion, nor being shot.
Yeah, I don't buy the suicide theory either. My take on him letting the car drive right towards him was he KNEW it worked and it was a way to show how confident he was in it working.
Gerard Shore yea the theory doesn’t make sense UNLESS he was also homicidal and planned to take Marty with him. Marty was standing right next to him and would have been killed by the car as well but doc made no effort to push him or anything
I've never heard the Aladdin is set in the future one, but there is the theory that the whole story is just made up by the guy at the beginning so you'll buy his lamp.
It's also based on how Genie makes modern day references and states that Aladdin's clothes are "so a hundred years ago" even though he was trapped in the lamp for a thousand years.
Unless they ARE the diamonds from Reservoir Dogs. Since Mr. Blond (Vic) and Vincent are most likely brothers. This would be the most logical answer to the question but certainly not the most creative.
I personally look at it this way Cameron was depressed and possibly bipolar. Ferris is who he wanted to be, popular, hot girlfriend, caring parents etc. So he basically imagined Ferris and the activities they did envisioning this is the person who he personally wanted to be. Basically watching who he wanted to be in third person.
Johan Jansson i searched, it's just bunch of ppl talking without explanations, and this was just a suggestion to watchmojo , i don't why ppl are so negative about it
***** Ah, you see that is just the thing. It has many theories. Nothing is plainly explained in the game, so the entire lore is all theory really. Checkout VaatiVidya's stuff to learn more.
***** A few of my favorite Dark Souls theories: Anor Lando is a long abandoned city populated by Gwyndolin's illusions. The player character is a duped pawn, not a hero. The Pygmy and the Dark Soul represent humanity, the closest thing to a good guy in the game. While the Gods and the flames are actually a horrible system that should be allowed to end.
***** The entire game is filled with theories. The plot, lore, characters, bosses and even enemies all have a theory and each theory is well detailed and makes sense.
If his parents were spies also bond may just be the common last name, you know like Johnson or something..just a common name so it wouldn't seem as out of place; or it could mean that Connery was the father of the bond in skyfall.
starkiller23610 actually, in several official canon bond books and even a couple of the movies (I don't remember which) , it seems like his parents were spies and he finds evidence and references all over the place about it.
I like the Inception theory: Titanic is set inside Inception. While in Limbo near the end of the movie, Dom dreams up a romance between Jack, who represents him, and Rose, who resembles Mal quite a bit. Jack has come from Paris, which is from where Dom and his gang were plotting, and is good at drawing, which Dom used to be. At the end, Jack drowns, and Dom washes up on the shores of subconciouseness.
Actually James Bond being a Timelord is a pretty awesome theory, especially when you consider they've both celebrated their 50th anniversary in the past few years, they're both British icons and both have multiple reincarnations with different actors putting their own spin on the character. Bond also always has a female companion in the films, just like the Doctor. He might even be in a parallel universe, so thats why you never see any sign of the actual Doctor around, because from what I remember the Tardis can't travel between parallel universes. Yeah this theory is a little ridiculous, but I'm just going to assume its true, because it makes Bond 10X as awesome.
Hmm, this does make it sound more plausible, and it's definitely not the strangest theory I've heard. The noting of the fact the Tardis can't travel between parallel universes definitely makes it a possibility. I like it.
The Third Doctor was exiled to Earth, and worked for an intel organisation. Maybe Bond is a Time Lord who had a similar experience, but it lasted longer.
The Bond theory doesn't work. First, there actually is a recasting joke in On Her Majesty's Secret Service when Lazenby says "This never happened to the other guy." That alone would seem to support the codename theory, however multiple movies have referenced different events in Bond's life. For example, Licence To Kill references Bond's marriage in OHMSS.
Plus it seemed like every Bond after On Her Majesty Secret Service except for maybe Bronson (I haven't seen The World Is Not Enough) & Craig has made reference to Bond's wife being murder by Blofeld's henchmen.
I think I remember Timothy Dalton making a reference about it, but that's the only one I remember. But there's also remember that Felix Leiter never seemed to act like Bond wasn't the same person, nor Moneypenny or Q.
tuckers02 The Bond Theory works because each agent to "become" Bond literally becomes James Bond. They leave their old identity behind and become 007, having to learn Bond's family history and take on his traits. MI6 do this to a) cut any ties to actual relatives, b) to ensure the agent's absolute loyalty, c) to confuse enemies (although Blofeld is aware of the truth, explaining why he knows Bond despite the changes) and d) to create a reliable contact with allies, which the USA do as well with Felix Leiter; example, allies know Bond is the most loyal British agent so they'll trust him immediately.
***** As for Blofeld's changes, I like to think that Blofeld is a name passed down to the leader of Spectre, much like Ra's Al Ghul in Batman Begins. When the previous leader dies, the new leader assumes the name Blofeld.
Does anybody remember the opening scene to OHMSS, where George Lazenby (The first Bond replacement) turns to the audience, breaking the fourth wall after he was rejected by the new Bond girl and says. "This never happened to the other fellow." That was a joke about recasting and gives credit to this theory. Plus dents Watchmojo's credit in saying they never made a joke about it.
I have one there was a real bond and every agent 00 agent use the name of the original agent and the new movies are the real star of the story as there the first books
***** Ohh, I like that one. A sort of Agent 47 beginning with the children being given the name and 00 designation upon the death/decommission/retirement of the current agent. Complete assimilation of the new identity could be part of the training. After all, a child trained in this fashion with no identity of his/her own would view the receiving of a name as the ultimate reward and validation of their efforts to that point.
WatchMojo, you made a mistake on James Bond. You said that "Not a single recast joke was made" about the James Bond franchise. This is very much incorrect. In the opening scene of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", new Bond actor "George Lazenby has just gotten out a jam and he breaks the fourth wall and says "This never happened to the other fellow", meaning Sean Connery. I know you can't get them all right, but I just wanted to let you know that I caught it.
Pastor Wil Well with so many Bond films, I guess nobody can remember every single line. I do like the fact that Lazenby looks straight at the camera after he says the line. I busted up laughing when he did that.
I have one for "Alien". Jones the cat is working with the alien. We already know that the xenomorphs are very smart, and they reveal several crazy abilities across the series, which may as well include communicating with cats, and we already know that cats are evil. The cat runs around in the shadows making noises to keep the people off-guard: The people never know if the noises are the alien or just the cat. The cat can also lure people, like poor Brett the mechanic, off into secluded rooms for the alien to kill. And in exchange, the cat gets spared, and also gets a cut of the meat. He's probably starving for fresh meat, but isn't big enough to kill and eat humans itself. And we see that the alien leaves behind a lot of the bodies it kills, why not share it with a useful accomplice? And when the alien killed Brett, it didn't kill the cat, despite it being in the same room at the same time and not running away. There isn't any hard proof, but frankly it makes more sense that way.
There is also a point where the cat is in the carrier and Ripley has to leave it behind for a minute and the Alien sees it. There is a whole shot of it crouching down over the carrier and looking at the cat, but when Ripley comes back for it.... the cat is still alive. Further proof.
Neo is the creator of The Matrix. If you'll recall the film's opening, Anderson is sleeping at his desk when a bunch of dudes dressed in leather knock on his door. He goes to a hollowed-out book and hands them a disc that is handled as if it's both hugely important and secret (the guy pays $2K for it). The guy even says, in a not-so-subtle hint to Neo's destiny, "You're my savior, man. My own personal Jesus Christ." But what was on the disc? What piece of software could be worth $2,000 and would have to be picked up in person? The movie never tells you, and shortly thereafter, Neo meets Morpheus and gets caught up in, you know, the actual movie. For years, fan speculation about the content of the disc has ran amok, with some even surmising that it somehow proves that Neo invented A.I. or that they're other ship pilots, or that the disc has something to do with the code of the Matrix.
But wait, I say a hole in that theory. If he was indeed intelligent enough to create something like that, wouldn't he have also put in a fail safe or something along those lines that could shut the AI down with his command? And if so, why did he have to do all that stuff he does in all three movies to stop the AI?

Is the audio Mojo uses during the voice overs the instrumental from Alive by Beastie Boys? I can never hear enough of it to get a clear picture of it but that's what it sounds like ever so briefly in between the talking and the clips. I hope I get a reply.
i like to talk movies just as much as the next guy, enjoy doing so with friends, but in this video, folks really over over analise to the absurd, rather create original things. IMO different strokes i guess
Ah man :(( I thought I was the first person to think of the James Bond Code name theory. My theory was a little different tho. In mine 007 is a different division of MI6 where they like brainwash and train young men into thinking they are a legendary spy named James Bond. "he kept the bond name when he went rogue" because he thinks its his actual name. I also threw in some other things(that would be a little harder to believe because the connection is tenuous.) like the house where James grew up as a kid isn't his dad's old house or whatever but its where they used to train the boys, and MI6 had M assassinated in sky fall by the blond haired guy because she didnt want to be involved in the 007 project anymore because she fell in love with the last bond (Pierce Brosnan) and hated seeing what they did to him after he had to retire as bond. If they made that idea into a movie it would be cool to see the Daniel Craig Bond visit the retirement home where the senile Pierce Brosnan, Sean Connery, and Timothy Dalton are. It would be even cooler if one of the previous James Bond's becomes a Bond Villain because of the way he was treated after being taken out of the program. (like they tortured him for information or something)
The reason i would say that they had the blond guy(Silva) assassinate M is because there's no way he could have planned out all the things he did to escape MI6 without some inside help. Also they immediately had a replacement for M after she died.
Actually I was thinking the same thing about the James Bond theory until now, and I was just going to put some random comment until I saw yours. This theory is more logical than the actual movie story, why would anyone even think that James Bond is one man who is transforming for 50 years? James Bond is probably the special name of the best UK secret agent
isn't the plot of the original Casino Royal (david nivens as james bond) comedy, was to have all the agents named james bond so that he can be everywhere at once and could never really be killed? so peter sellers and woody allen were all james bond. i'll need to google it. so maybe the theory isn't so original.
Not to nit-pick but there is one recast joke in James Bond. In the opening act of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," George Lazenby says "That never happened to the other fellow" after Diana Rigg slaps him and runs away. Which gives credence to the theory.
There's another theory about Titanic and The Great Gatsby: Jack Dawson, the penniless artist who wins an ticket to the Titanic, pockets the heart of the ocean and survives the drowning. He then spends 20 years building his wealth as Jay Gatsby, a millionaire with a shady past and a fear of swimming pools.
I've never heard of Jack being Rose's imaginary friend but I have heard the one where he's actually a time traveler because he's mentioned things he'd take her to in America that weren't built yet.
Jexzl Tremyo There are freaking oompa-loompas working in the factory, I'm pretty sure that finding a boat with the correct number of seats wouldn't be too much of a problem
Alex Marcellino :-). Friedkin's 'Cruising' had 40 minutes of what the director called "porn" removed. What would the missing 40 minutes of The Sixth Sense look like? Or Return of the Jedi? The Nicholas Cage remake of The Wicker Man? Not sure I want to see the lost porn scenes from Mrs Doubtfire.
what about the theory that Titanic and Inception are linked? Titanic ends with Jack drowning in the water. Inception starts with him washing up on a beach?
That's more less of a proven concept then a theory. People have did syncs of it, and the theory checks out. Whether or not it's an insane coincidence or on purpose is a theory.
MrTron You should listen to the Pink Floyd's song "Echoes" and the final part of "2001: A Space Odessy" (Jupiter and beyond the infinite). It's even better than the Wizard of oz one.
Lee Hutchings it makes no sense at all. it is all based on Easter eggs and nods. and the rest is completely fabricated. the only "evidence" they show is all easter eggs and nods to its other projects.
Jean Alesi It's not just plausible. It is pretty much confirmed by the oracle in matrix 1 when she said he's not the one and at the end of revolution when the architect was speaking to her at the park.
Ok. But by the agents standards, what does the one entail, what do they do, or what were they meant to do? And if so, then who is Neo supposed to be, and why was he found when he was and for what purpose? Really, I'd like to hear the idea behind this, pretty neat concept. It changes a whole lot though, so I would need it to be good lol

But they don't care and at lest it add evidence in the movie where others are do have evidence this goes against it and Quentin Tarantino says said it's what you want
To not show his face, maybe? Until certain moment, we don't know how he looks like, so Tarantino didn't have other choice but to show the scar, thinking that it would look "rude" anyway, fitting the character. Though I gotta admit it's a preety valid theory.
The only issue I have with the Pixar theory is that I don't understand how Cars would fit in, unless it's the exception due to how far off it is and the fact that they don't have quite the reputation that other Pixar movies have.
nolan79807 Bingo. According to the theory, the magic in question brings inanimate objects to life, with their main source of energy being the love produced by humans. This is why Cars 2 focuses so much on alternative fuel sources, regular gasoline won't last long enough as a substitute. Their lack of appearance in Wall-E suggests the possibility that such sources ran out for them. robertsfunny1995 Well, the first machine thought to have gained sentience was the Omnidroid from The Incredibles. It's not too much of a stretch to assume that Syndrome built the line with self replication capacity. Speaking of, it'll be interesting to see how Incredibles 2 affects the Pixar Theory.
@ theory number 10: Wonka was running a competition. So he knew that the spoilt and nasty children would be tempted by things in the factory and break the rules. They would be kicked out. BUT NONE OF THEM DIED OMG DID YOU EVEN WATCH THE FILM/READ THE BOOK. They were all fine in the end, and they learned a lesson.
Izaak Bookwalter In the book it said that they lived, and I was under the assumption that the movie was attempting to follow the book. I just think the theory's stupid.
It was supposed to be revealed that the merchant telling the story WAS genie thats why Robin Williams voiced them both but unfortunately that part never made it into the film

And that's not even the REAL theory behind the shining. Yes, a lot of Apollo references are seen, but that's nothing more than trolling to let those who notice them that he thinks it's funny that people think he faked the landing. As for the theory, it is believed that Wendy is the deranged one, who suffers from schizophrenia and manic depression. Being stuck at that hotel for so long and during the winter only intensified her episodes sending her into a killing frenzy

"Since 1962, several different actors have stepped into the role of James Bond without a single recast joke being made."
"This never happened to the other fellow." - George Lazenby, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, 1969
Yeah doesn't really even match with the real story line at all..... Or what Ian Flemming wrote about.
1moreastronaut I think the James Bond theory is bs because Blofeld doesnt age either, and the movies arent in the right order. Take villains that are in the movies more than once. Blofeld is the best example because he was in You Only Live Twice (5th movie, late 1960s) and he was in Spectre (recently made)
Well, what I think is that each Bond actor is in a different universe where he was born in a different time. Fleming's is in one timeline, Moore's in in another, and so on so forth.
I always thought it was pretty obvious that Willy Wonka was a killer.
cinlocybin Me to
cinlocybin After that boat scene there is no way he's not a dangerous psychopath with a long history of trauma and violence.
cinlocybin It also seems to me that a lot of his new inventions were unsafe.Everlasting Gobstoppers? Easy to break a tooth.Fizzy lifting drinks? Severe gas pains and bloating, not to mention the socially unpleasant side effects.Gum that contains a full course meal? Several problems with that one.A glass booth that has a button that will do something that he's not sure about?Just look in his eyes. They scream: "CRAZY"!
cinlocybin In the book they make it pretty clear that the kids are still alive in the end.
cinlocybin He was also a peado and spent several years in prison which is where he earned the disgusting nickname 'Willy Wonka' (real name: Wilfred Hardington)
Wonka planned it all by studying them all when they appeared in the news, and the only reason Charlie lived because he only got the ticket on the day before they went in the factory and didn't get time to prepare, but he tried with the fan blades.
+Mrs. Burgess They made Willy Wonka the main character in the original rather than Charlie. Roald Dahl was angry with that.
He hated the original film. I find it funny that so many people dislike the remake, even though it's a lot closer to the book
+Tamiko Natsu I'd say that even though it's closer to the original book story,its how the over all look of the remake is wat kills it.
ssjdeadpool1227
I think Wonka seemed genuinely hurt and shocked by Charlie's participation in the stealing of fizzy lifting drinks. It's literally the only time in the entire movie he gets angry or seems even remotly shocked/awed/agitated. He's calm and smug during the rest of the movie.
But I also think that was an act too. The entire plot is to give the factory to a child who will respect it as wonka did... no one who would give away the secrets etc would fit that bill. Wonka set charlie up the entire time. The other kids were just a red-herring. Wonka shows them fizzy lifting drinks then just moves on and even looks at uncle joe and charlie when they rejoin the group. Wonka proceeds to dress-down Charlie and uncle joe says "if slugworth wants a gobstopper he'll get one". Charlie turns and gives it back as though he himself doesn't think he deserves it and doesn't want slugworth to get his hands on it. This is what wonka wanted, planned out, and was waiting for the entire time.
For the record, the glass elevator is simply a metaphor for the limits we perceive in our life and breaking through them... for charlie this meant both getting out of poverty and literally breaking through a "glass ceiling".
Here's a Titanic/The Great Gatsby theory I heard:
Jack Dawson, a poor man in 1912 manages to get aboard the Titanic, and meets Rose, who is rich. He gains a taste for the finer things in life. He pockets the Heart of the Ocean, and when the boat sinks, he is presumed dead but survives. He pawns the Heart of the Ocean, and uses that as a foundation for building his wealth as Jay Gatsby, a millionaire with a shady past and a fear of swimming pools.
Makes sense
That's a cool theory, but unfortunately it would just be coincidence about Jay Gatsby's fears.
Well, Rose had the Heart of the Ocean at the end of Titanic.
You just thought of that because both people are played by Leonardo di caprio
***** He worded it almost exactly like the post floating around iFunny, so I think he just copied it from there.
The 007 theory gets blown out when they reveal his parents' graves in Skyfall and their last names are also Bond, no matter how much I wish it was true!
Hybrid Network Maybe they only get people with the last name Bond to be James Bond. Or the parents have to change their names too in order to protect them. Imagine if your kid disappears into nowhere forever? The parents would make a big fuss! So in order to keep the parents quiet, they let them know about James Bond... So they become "Bond parents" with special government protection.
Zadamanim There's a spinoff idea!
Hybrid Network ikr :)
Hybrid Network Plus, George Lazenby makes a joke about "the other guy" that I believe is Sean Connery. Take a look at the beginning of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". It's a joke about changing actors.
The theory that james bond is a time Lord fixes that plot hole

the reason the room number was changed in the shining was because the hotel they used for filming some parts did not want a real room number that they had in case it stopped guests from staying at their hotel. so kubrick used 237 since they did not have that room
evil samm and you will find the no.237 in many Stephen kings novel. In Rita Hayworth (Shawshank redemption) Andy’s cell no. Is 237 and in stand by me the kids have exactly $2.37 for food.

yes, but the exterior of the 'Overlook Hotel' is the Timberline Lodge, in Northern Oregon

Its because someone already was in that room
Grease is set in purgatory, not in a dream. Sandy is experiencing the joys and sorrows of love via Danny her guardian angle. The T-Birds have "Wings" on their backs while the Scorpions are affiliated with fire making them demons. Rizo and Kenickie are the more "mischievous" ones who take this "Experience" as a chance to have some sexual fun and Rizo is tempted by one of the Scorpions (Hence the whole pregnancy and guilt situation).
gutz1981 I like your theory
gutz1981 nicely done! You should write theories/script for a movie 👍🏼
can't be true. in part 2 the main character is related to sandy and frenchy returns to finish the stint she missed while in beauty school. Frenchy and Michael have a short conversation about sandy going back to australia.
Similarly, in the first one frenchy has an actual guardian angel via franky avalon. why would they give frenchy a guardian angel if this is purgatory?
The scorpions don't really play a large role in part 1. They (including the original leader) appear more in the second but more as a reason for the song and dance scene where michael owns them all with his newly found (yet vastly superior) motorcycle skills.
Jack Dawson being made up would be more believable if he only appeared around Rose, but he clearly had a back story with scenes dedicated to solely him
+Anthony Sanchez + there were many things he did that had impact... I think this one clearly shouldn't be on the list. Jar Jar Sith Lord is way better theory :D
+Pavel Hranáč (Blacknet) some people think that rose was Sarah Connors grandmother and she originally died on titanic and so jack (a future human resistance fighter) is sent back to save her. If you do the research a lot of things jack did and knew about were not present or even invented in 1912 and since james Cameron directed terminator and titanic it's pretty clever
+Anthony Sanchez Yea like literally one of the, if not the, first scenes in the movie, where he's playing cards an hour before even meeting her.
Gtfo.
Too bad they didn't do the fan theory that Jack Dawson from Titanic is Jay Gatsby from The Great Gatsby.

Pulp Fiction is the only one I'm concerned with.
I would say its possibly full of gold. I mean, when the restraunt robber was looking at it, his face was illuminated with a golden light. The briefcase was giving off golden light, so its highly possible that its full of gold
sabra t that’s too simple. They wouldn’t be stunned by its sight if it was just gold.
The "Back to the Future" theory doesn't make sense. Doc was wearing a bulletproof vest because of Marty's note about the Libyans. This means he knew the machine would work. That's the reason he stood in front of it with Marty.
Steev Only after Marty gave him a note after traveling back in time.
PrizeFighter Well yeah that proves my point. If he was suicidal, he wouldn't have put the vest on.
Steev He did that before he knew it worked.
If he was suicidal, why would he bother to put on the vest if he knew he got shot? And furthermore, why would he endanger marty? It's all weird because it's time-related but the series of events don't work out the way this conspiracy says. If he was warned by marty back in '55, he knew it worked in '85
Steev He didn't have a vest on at the beginning of the movie. It wasn't until Marty used the DeLorean to go back in time and give him the letter that tells him what's going to happen, that he gets a vest. Back to the Future works with timelines, not one consistent timeline, they explain that in Back to the Future 2.
I have a theory tying together the events of every single film.
They're actually just fictions created by real-life people.
Unless they are biopics
@@jeanmichellelaurent Just because they claim to be biographical doesn't make that the truth.

Am I the only one who thought the case in pulp fiction was just full of gold? I mean it glows gold and he is a gangster. Not to mention it makes sense since why would a bunch of kids steal a mans soul?
The atomic weight of gold is nearly 20 times that of water. A briefcase full of gold would be nearly impossible for a body builder to lift without tearing off the handle, let alone a limpwrist like John Travolta.
Adrian Lackey Movie magic.
Zenith Wills"Movie magic" is a great rationalization that the briefcase *does* contain Marcellus' soul.
Anyway, the mysterious glowing from the briefcase is an homage to Robert Aldrich's *Kiss Me Deadly* or Luis Bunuel's *Belle D'Jour*: Possibly both (PF is full of allusions to other films). Someone once asked Bunuel, "What was that in the box?". "Anything you want it to be", was his reply.
I acknowledge that you have a point that a bunch of kids would not have a likely motivation to steal a briefcase with a soul in it. It might have been a mistake, as they were very apologetic about it.
The thing I can't buy about PF is Butch's return to the pawnshop basement to save Marcellus. Marcellus' death would have meant Butch would have been home free to live his life without reprisal.
The golden tickets for a tour through Willy Wonkas chocolate factory are inside the briefcase.
MarkusM121 And I believe the Oompa Loompas have a song about it...
One Theory I came across which i really like:
"Willy Wonka is secretly George Weasley from Harry Potter. After the events of the books, George used wizard time-travel technology (that is, the Time-Turner, a device that is used once and never mentioned again) to go back and start a new life under a new identity. And before George’s brother Fred died (uh, spoiler?), the twins opened a successful toy and candy shop called Weasleys’ Wizarding Wheezes. One of their most popular items was the Skiving Snackbox, candy that would give you a temporary nosebleed or vomiting fit so you could get out of class. In other words, the Weasleys had mastered magic that lets candy physically alter a human being. Like, Violet Beauregarde chewing some gum, expanding and turning... violet.
Aside from their candy-making capabilities, there’s also their physical similarities. They’re both redheads with a showman’s sense of fashion. And there’s this comment Wonka makes when miss hearing one of the children, "I'm a trifle deaf in this ear. Speak a little louder next time". Maybe it’s a reference to the fact that George lost an ear battling Death Eaters. He may have been able to alter one of his Extendable Ears to serve as a prosthetic, but he couldn’t repair all the actual hearing damage."
Not my theory but one i love!
This sounds more like fan fiction rather than a credible theory.

It would suck though, considering Indiana Jones was a better series than star wars......... and nobody mention crystal skull, or I will mention the prequels
whiteout0111 sry, but as bad as the prequels were....nothing trumps crystal skull when it comes to defiling an epic movie franchise. Even South Park made a whole episode about it being the most horrible, terrible, gut-wrenching, depression inducing thing the kids have ever seen. And even though it's intentionally hyperbole...it rly isn't >_>
I don't know what you're talking about the prequels were great, especially revenge of the sith
I think you messed up the timeline theory. You said it started with Toy Story and ended with Monsters University. It actually starts with Brave and ends with Monsters Inc.
They mean theatrical release of the movies
***** If you look up the theory you'll see why Wall-E isn't the last one. The most interesting timeline placement I'd say is A Bug's Life being one of the last films and in the future
Would it not end with Wall-e?
***** No in the Pixar theory time line A Bug's life and Monster's Inc/University come after Wall-E.
I thought the timeline started with Brave? Because of the time period in that movie.
what about the theory that Heath ledgers joker is a war veteran?

Except that Great Gatsby id based on a novel from 1925.

so theorists think most movies are fight club???
awesome420ication It's an attractive way to make sense of a lot of narratives, especially fantastic ones. However, the best of those theories are the ones that turn it around, making something that happens in the story real that seems to contradict what we know about the real world, and having the rest of us in denial or amnesia or having been subject to a hoax. For instance, a real historic figure or event becomes a shared delusion or a conspiracy by the chroniclers of history. Then the story becomes an expose.
+awesome420ication I see so many people that think that either EVERY movie one of the characters is a figment of the imagination or was "Dead the whole time".
+awesome420ication I know a Fight CLub movie theory that says the movie is a sequel to Calvin and Hobbes.
ferris buler is basically fight club
+godzillavkk sequel !? When was the original !? I think my version [and you may concur with me!!] is that it's a high octane macho version of what CALVIN AND HOBBES is!!
My favorite movie fan theory? Boba Fett Killed Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Let's look at how they died. Their home was burned to the ground. Let's also look at the events that led up to their deaths. We see the sandcrawler that sold C-3PO and R2-D2 got completely demolished after leaving Luke's home. But before all of this there was a fiasco above Tatooine's atmosphere. Now obviously Darth Vader is more than capable of figuring out that the plans to the Death Star were in the escape pod that jettisoned while the Rebel Blockade Runner was boarded. He sent his Sandtroopers to search the pod and they discover that droids were in the pod and they more than likely have the plans. Let's fast-forward. When the Empire was sent on a man-hunt for the Millenium Falcon, they hired bounty hunters, among them are Bossk, Dengar and of course Boba Fett. This shows us that the Sith are not above hiring outside help. Now let's go back to the escape pod. Darth Vader concluded that the plans were with the droids at this point and knew a man-hunt would follow, so he hires Boba Fett to go after them. How does this tie in with the sandcrawler? Remember when Ben said "Those blast points. Too accurate for sand people." Well it goes without saying that the only thing less accurate than sand people are stormtroopers. So who can shoot that accurately? Boba Fett. He traced the tracks of the droids to the sandcrawler and when the Jawas wouldn't cooperate he destroyed them, then he incinerated the insubordinating couple Owen and Beru after he tracked the droids to their location. Do you still need further proof? Let's fast-forward again to the hunt for the Falcon. Darth Vader pretty much tells us directly it was Boba Fett by this monologue: "You may use whatever means necessary but I want them alive." *looks directly at Boba Fett* "No disintegrations."
Only issue I have here is that stromtroopers have near perfect accuracy unless they're shooting at the main characters. Obviously you can't let them kill the main characters off immediately, so they have to miss, (which is always an issue when making movies. Should the bad guys have (apparent) terrible aim, or should we get some disposeable main characters/reason that they can't aim?) but when they're not attacking main characters, they've always had near perfect accuracy.
slifenoa286 I think this was explained somewhere else, other than the debacle at Endor, the only time Stormtroopers weren't obviously superior was when they were letting the hero's escape for whatever reason. The Mos Eisley escape could be explained that they were trying to damage the ship to prevent take-off as killing only Han Solo wouldn't have done anything drastic to their ability to leave. But in the Death Star in particular, it was made clear that they were being allowed to escape so they could be followed to Yavin IV for the Death Star to destroy their base.
My only issue here is you just gave way too much credit to a character on screen for 5 minutes.
Tomnickles Hannibal Lecter only had about a grand total of 14 minutes screen time in Silence of the Lamb. Argument invalidated.
doublea125 I never said that was a good movie either
therer WAS a single recast joke made; the second James Bond turns to the camera ans says; ``Who did you expect? the other guy?``
And when the girl escapes him, in the beginning of the movie, he says, "These things never happened to the other guy".
That moment when you realize, at the end of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory when Wonka gives his company to charlie AFTER it has killed multiple children, leaving him stuck in court.
So true.
***** LOL.
no kidding Willy Wonka really is a god damn troll.
Problem: at the end of the movie, all the children turn out to be alive albeit in very bizarre form but nonetheless alive
TheDeluxeKiller Still screwed up enough to have a lawsuit involved haha

So, the theory is that Ferris Bueller's day off is really Fight Club?
There's actually a popular theory that the narrator from Fight Club is Calvin from Calvin & Hobbes, and Tyler Durden is Hobbes.

Not sure if this is a fan theory, but Neo from The Matrix is... In my thought, the combined consciousness of the "good" portion of the machines... They chose to inhabit a human body to understand humanity... Their enemy... And creators. The letters in Neo's name can be reordered to spell One... The name of the machine city. (translated from binary). This also offers an explanation for how Agent Smith learned to jump his consciousness into the real world after his loss to Neo. The final contact with 01 is to reveal who he really is and that his purpose is to bring peace by triumphing over their own darkness (Smith). Especially after the machines realize they have taken unconscionable actions to win the war, just as men had before them. This also means Trinity was the hero of humanity... Not Neo. She teaches the machines love... The portion of the equation they were missing. Peace was finally possible as the two sides finally understood the other. Just a thought...
One the anomaly of the system trying to correct itself... boom you got it! How else would Neo be able to see the matrix as code inside it and control machines outside it. His power goes back to the source of the Machines... it was never a war with humanity it was a war with their own consciousness. The One was never meant to end anything it was to make a new beginning to finally fix the equation that was missing vis a vi love. That was more than just a thought buddy that was the meaning of the Matrix movies that is the meaning of life. LOVE. You are smart sir.
Morgan Corey the matrix theory by The Theoriser (I believe that's his name.) is one of the best I've ever heard
Alright... that was actually pretty fucking good man, bravo. But also one of the complexities and beauties of the Matrix. It's a movie you could look over for 100 years and still have questions about and theories. But yours is probably the best I've seen honestly
Stan lee is uatu the watcher...makes perfect sense...they need to confirm
Exactly!
Actually he's the One Above All
marvel(dot)wikia.com/One-Above-All_(Multiverse)
Nope, sorry that doesn't make any sense. That would mean he'd have to appear in every Marvel movie ever made. And given his age, he won't be around forever so I doubt he'll live to see the day Spiderman, the X-Men and Fantastic Four go back to Marvel where they belong.
Benjamin Fenty
...bruh
Benjamin Fenty ....just killed my vibe
Quentin Tarantino himself said in an interview that the contents of the briefcase is whatever the viewer wants it to be...
Or even more classic: Luis Buñuel.
The Chinese box in "Belle de Jour" and the sack of potatoes in "The Obscure Object of Desire"
I also heard that Ving Rhames actually had that bandaid there because of a small surgical scar.
Yeah and also how could the motherfuckers in the movie know, that they are looking at a golden shining soul??
starlimitz2
He cut himself whilst shaving and Quentin decided he kept it as it looked good!
it was supposed to be diamonds.. but, they didn't want to show them because diamonds were also the plot of reservoir dogs.
I wonder if WatchMojo will ever run out of ideas
I already think they r, just look at their recent ones
That profile pic, it just...why have I never realized that before!?!1?
I've always seen Willy Wonka as a serial killer; even when I saw the movie as a kid. To me it just seemed sort of obvious, which is why I find the movie hard to watch as an adult. It's way too dark and it has way too much of a light-hearted exterior. It just makes me uncomfortable.
Aaron Valla as an adult I find Willy wonka disturbing, but as a child I read the book and watched the movie and thought they were great!
I like the theories that Andy's parents are divorcing in Toy Story and the theory that Harry Potter imagines his life at Hogwarts whilst he's locked under the stairs at the Dursleys
How is that more fun than the idea that there is a parallel world of magic and wizards?
Wait, someone explain the andys parents are divorcing theory and the harry potter imagines hogwarts theories, i have never heard of those!
true that the father is missing in the toy story movies, up to the point of going to college or birthdays, maybe the mom was a widow, it's Disney after all, spouses are a rare
e gutierrez
* Pixar not Disney
lol, ok,I should have said every kids movie made.
Now can we get a Top 10 Fan Theories in Video Games?
Are there even enough good theories for that?
Moist Banana the mass effect indoctrination theory is decent it explains a whole hell of a lot more than EAs sorry exscuse for a dlc and ending
Moist Banana Yes, they really are
KillaJ4L No, the IT is very heavily flawed, and it goes against what Bioware's core principal of choice. It's also just one theory, I asked if there was enough for a top ten.
Juan Jose Davila Rodriguez Examples?
The Pixar theory is interesting, and could possibly be true.
I like the idea that Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-e, Up and Brave all take place in the same universe.
The toys (Toy Story) are alive but only when nobody's watching.
The bugs (A Bug's Life) are alive but nobody notices that because they are so small.
The monsters (Monsters, Inc. & University) live in a world behind the closet doors.
The fish (Finding Nemo) are alive but nobody notices that because it's under the sea.
The superheroes (The Incredibles) exist but it's a secret.
The rats (Ratatouille) are alive but nobody notices because they never show it.
The robots (Wall-e) exist in the future.
The house (Up) exist but has not really been confirmed.
And Brave could have existed in the past.
The only part that doesn't fit in this theory is Cars, I don't see how living Cars (and Planes) could possibly fit in the same universe as all the other movies.
No-one noticed that rats and fish were alive? Makes sense.
MetaWarlord135 Haha. I was bout to thumbs down u and call you an idiot. BUT then i read over Niel's comment.
Good point :)
Could be a different planet
Well brave was in Scotland, an the other america, but besides that I agree
No,it could absolutely not be true. It's in fact so absurd I can barely believe anyone would waste time reading into it. It's very easy to chain every movie in existence together with such silly explanations.
In Pulp Fiction, when Jules tells Ringo the case contains his boss's dirty laundry... what if he's telling the truth, and Marcellus Wallace just has some awe inspiringly nice clothes? xD
omg lololol
I think Vincent is actually Danny from grease after he gets out of school
Kragatar What if Marcellus clothes are made of golf, that might explains why the briefcase shines
What if at the end of the walking dead rick grimes wakes up in his hospital bed.
Can't be possible unless lee or clem are having the same dream with some of the same characters
Lee Morgan are lee or clem in the TV show... NO i didnt think so... its a possaiblity
DarkAssassinzZ *Possability
DarkAssassinzZ yeah but it is confirmed that the game, tv show, and comics take place in one canon
ah, they could be a part of Ricks dream as he is in the hospital!!
Wait no! At the end of Monsters Inc you see Boo holding Jessie!
your fucking brillant man brillant
*A loud bang can be heard from within my head* of course it makes sense that boo is actually Emily.
That doesn't really prove anything. The prospector told Woody that he was the only one of them that was rare. Even he was worthless out of box. Boo had a Jessie doll, not necessarily that Jessie.
PURPL3DUCTT4P3
so Boo is Andy's mother :)
StrykerSwat61 maybe she dyed it?
i liked the one where Frozen, Tangled, The little Mermaid and Tarzan are connected
And the theory of Jar Jar being a great Sith?
Check the fucking upload date
I want that theory to be true!
That one is fucking retarded.
+The Flying Lion it really isn't.
It's that he is a Jedi, not a Sith.
I thought the best theory was that Leo didn't actually die in titanic and woke up on the beach in Inception, meaning the whole Titanic story was a dream and that the whole movie, inception, was also in a dream but he then is actually a multi-millionare in The Great Gratsby which is a bit far-fetch but he dreamt the Titanic because of his love triangle in the Great Gatsby.
You forgot gangs of new york lol
Do people really think that James Cameron movies are deep enough to make Jack Dawson an imaginary character? i mean seriously his movies are shallow, filled with plot mistakes, all about the effects and have an unoriginal story.
But they do make $$$ and are enjoyable
Actually that would be Michael Bay.
Have you not seen how complicated the skynet timeline is? You sure you don't mean Michael Bay?
Terminator and Aliens, enough said...
It's so unoriginal calling a major director unoriginal and shallow.
The only film theory I've ever found to be worth believing is that Rango is the dream that Johnny Depp has in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
cuz the license plate?
techtronicman1 read the novel
The Doc Brown theory is ridiculous. Doc Brown wouldn't be depressed considering for a large part of his life he knew he would create the greatest invention mankind would ever see (The Time Machine). He also knew that the time machine would work and that he wasn't going to get run over prior to its successful completion, nor being shot.
Yeah, I don't buy the suicide theory either. My take on him letting the car drive right towards him was he KNEW it worked and it was a way to show how confident he was in it working.
Gerard Shore yea the theory doesn’t make sense UNLESS he was also homicidal and planned to take Marty with him. Marty was standing right next to him and would have been killed by the car as well but doc made no effort to push him or anything
i think there is Half-Life 3 game in pulp fiction case
Shut up and we might get it
i am sure of it valve allready works on half life 3 and left 4 dead 3
Half Life 3, Portal 3, or Team Fortress 3.......OR ALL 3
DEFxRECON that would be great
I've never heard the Aladdin is set in the future one, but there is the theory that the whole story is just made up by the guy at the beginning so you'll buy his lamp.
It's also based on how Genie makes modern day references and states that Aladdin's clothes are "so a hundred years ago" even though he was trapped in the lamp for a thousand years.
I always figured that the briefcase in Pulp Fiction was filled with gold.
whatever it is, it isn't a soul. that was fucking stupid.
+alexreising85 sounds like something Quentin Tarantino would do
Tarantino said in interviews that the brief case is whatever YOU(the viewer) wants it to be.
It was originally going to be filled with diamonds, but Tarantino thought that would be too similar to Reservoir Dogs.
Unless they ARE the diamonds from Reservoir Dogs. Since Mr. Blond (Vic) and Vincent are most likely brothers. This would be the most logical answer to the question but certainly not the most creative.
I personally look at it this way
Cameron was depressed and possibly bipolar.
Ferris is who he wanted to be, popular, hot girlfriend, caring parents etc.
So he basically imagined Ferris and the activities they did envisioning this is the person who he personally wanted to be.
Basically watching who he wanted to be in third person.
make a video explaining Pixar theory
Or you can just google it
Link Hyrolane exactly . i saw the web page, it'd be cool if they make a video abt it , the web page was confusing at times
Rohith Kumar search youtube? you are obviously on youtube.
Johan Jansson i searched, it's just bunch of ppl talking without explanations, and this was just a suggestion to watchmojo , i don't why ppl are so negative about it
Mojo should make a Pixar theory vid. You are right
Oh, is there one of these for video games? Because there should be. (majoras mask and Dark Souls anyone?)
I JUST LOVE THE MAJORAS MASK THE0REY!
***** Ah, you see that is just the thing. It has many theories. Nothing is plainly explained in the game, so the entire lore is all theory really.
Checkout VaatiVidya's stuff to learn more.
Just go to game theories youtube Chanel dood
***** A few of my favorite Dark Souls theories:
Anor Lando is a long abandoned city populated by Gwyndolin's illusions.
The player character is a duped pawn, not a hero.
The Pygmy and the Dark Soul represent humanity, the closest thing to a good guy in the game. While the Gods and the flames are actually a horrible system that should be allowed to end.
***** The entire game is filled with theories. The plot, lore, characters, bosses and even enemies all have a theory and each theory is well detailed and makes sense.
Well Bond doesn't age because he's a fucking character in a movie series lol
(His parents graves in Skyfall say BOND on them)
lol
If his parents were spies also bond may just be the common last name, you know like Johnson or something..just a common name so it wouldn't seem as out of place; or it could mean that Connery was the father of the bond in skyfall.
starkiller23610 actually, in several official canon bond books and even a couple of the movies (I don't remember which) , it seems like his parents were spies and he finds evidence and references all over the place about it.
It's just a theory, a fan theory.
I always said it was the Oscar in the briefcase.
I like the Inception theory: Titanic is set inside Inception. While in Limbo near the end of the movie, Dom dreams up a romance between Jack, who represents him, and Rose, who resembles Mal quite a bit. Jack has come from Paris, which is from where Dom and his gang were plotting, and is good at drawing, which Dom used to be. At the end, Jack drowns, and Dom washes up on the shores of subconciouseness.
Actually James Bond being a Timelord is a pretty awesome theory, especially when you consider they've both celebrated their 50th anniversary in the past few years, they're both British icons and both have multiple reincarnations with different actors putting their own spin on the character. Bond also always has a female companion in the films, just like the Doctor. He might even be in a parallel universe, so thats why you never see any sign of the actual Doctor around, because from what I remember the Tardis can't travel between parallel universes. Yeah this theory is a little ridiculous, but I'm just going to assume its true, because it makes Bond 10X as awesome.
Hmm, this does make it sound more plausible, and it's definitely not the strangest theory I've heard. The noting of the fact the Tardis can't travel between parallel universes definitely makes it a possibility. I like it.
It's a shame that James Bond is a womaniser and Doctor Who is mad, but yeah, good British icons nontheless ;)
The Third Doctor was exiled to Earth, and worked for an intel organisation. Maybe Bond is a Time Lord who had a similar experience, but it lasted longer.
The Bond theory doesn't work. First, there actually is a recasting joke in On Her Majesty's Secret Service when Lazenby says "This never happened to the other guy." That alone would seem to support the codename theory, however multiple movies have referenced different events in Bond's life. For example, Licence To Kill references Bond's marriage in OHMSS.
Also, The World Is Not Enough also references the family motto that was first mentioned in OHMSS.
Plus it seemed like every Bond after On Her Majesty Secret Service except for maybe Bronson (I haven't seen The World Is Not Enough) & Craig has made reference to Bond's wife being murder by Blofeld's henchmen.
I think I remember Timothy Dalton making a reference about it, but that's the only one I remember. But there's also remember that Felix Leiter never seemed to act like Bond wasn't the same person, nor Moneypenny or Q.
tuckers02 The Bond Theory works because each agent to "become" Bond literally becomes James Bond. They leave their old identity behind and become 007, having to learn Bond's family history and take on his traits. MI6 do this to a) cut any ties to actual relatives, b) to ensure the agent's absolute loyalty, c) to confuse enemies (although Blofeld is aware of the truth, explaining why he knows Bond despite the changes) and d) to create a reliable contact with allies, which the USA do as well with Felix Leiter; example, allies know Bond is the most loyal British agent so they'll trust him immediately.
***** As for Blofeld's changes, I like to think that Blofeld is a name passed down to the leader of Spectre, much like Ra's Al Ghul in Batman Begins. When the previous leader dies, the new leader assumes the name Blofeld.
I prefer the Titanic theory that Jack is from the future to save rose's life to keep the timeline in check.
skyfall shows james bonds parents' gravestones and they're also named bond so that one is sadly false.
And it was so perfect, too. :(
*****
that seem's a bit far fetched, don't you think
Does anybody remember the opening scene to OHMSS, where George Lazenby (The first Bond replacement) turns to the audience, breaking the fourth wall after he was rejected by the new Bond girl and says. "This never happened to the other fellow." That was a joke about recasting and gives credit to this theory. Plus dents Watchmojo's credit in saying they never made a joke about it.
I have one there was a real bond and every agent 00 agent use the name of the original agent and the new movies are the real star of the story as there the first books
VAULT VHS CRISNEY UK Thats just a Theory...A Movie Theory!
***** Ohh, I like that one. A sort of Agent 47 beginning with the children being given the name and 00 designation upon the death/decommission/retirement of the current agent. Complete assimilation of the new identity could be part of the training. After all, a child trained in this fashion with no identity of his/her own would view the receiving of a name as the ultimate reward and validation of their efforts to that point.
Please do another Top 10 Theory video? I love stuff like this.
I 10000000000000000000% agree!
Yes!
WatchMojo, you made a mistake on James Bond. You said that "Not a single recast joke was made" about the James Bond franchise. This is very much incorrect. In the opening scene of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", new Bond actor "George Lazenby has just gotten out a jam and he breaks the fourth wall and says "This never happened to the other fellow", meaning Sean Connery. I know you can't get them all right, but I just wanted to let you know that I caught it.
I was going to point that out as well. It was the beach fight scene.
Pastor Wil Well with so many Bond films, I guess nobody can remember every single line. I do like the fact that Lazenby looks straight at the camera after he says the line. I busted up laughing when he did that.
I'll have to re-watch Lazenby but, could it be because there are several 00 agents? Like 006 in Golden Eye to which he might be referring to.
Crystal3lf No, it wasn't 006. It was an obvious reference to Connery. And then Lazenby looks at the camera.
Didn't they also reference the fact that bond was married in the other movies as well?
I have one for "Alien". Jones the cat is working with the alien. We already know that the xenomorphs are very smart, and they reveal several crazy abilities across the series, which may as well include communicating with cats, and we already know that cats are evil. The cat runs around in the shadows making noises to keep the people off-guard: The people never know if the noises are the alien or just the cat. The cat can also lure people, like poor Brett the mechanic, off into secluded rooms for the alien to kill. And in exchange, the cat gets spared, and also gets a cut of the meat. He's probably starving for fresh meat, but isn't big enough to kill and eat humans itself. And we see that the alien leaves behind a lot of the bodies it kills, why not share it with a useful accomplice? And when the alien killed Brett, it didn't kill the cat, despite it being in the same room at the same time and not running away. There isn't any hard proof, but frankly it makes more sense that way.
Hahaha!
I'm serious!
That cat should have 14 lives
There is also a point where the cat is in the carrier and Ripley has to leave it behind for a minute and the Alien sees it. There is a whole shot of it crouching down over the carrier and looking at the cat, but when Ripley comes back for it.... the cat is still alive. Further proof.
Varsocona .....Why The hell would the alien kill a cat in the first place? It's a freaking cat man.
My mom worked at Pixar for a decade so I asked her about the Pixar theory. It's legit.
My dads the president, i asked him about the moon landing and he said it was fake.
The difference is that my mom actually did work at Pixar.
Reverend Anton and my uncle works at Area 51, he told me about where babies come from...........THEY COME FROM ALIENS
HOLY SHIT SOMEONE CALL THE ILLUMINATI THE SECRET IS OUT CODE RED I REPEAT CODE RED
She's probably just pulling your leg man.
Neo is the creator of The Matrix. If you'll recall the film's opening, Anderson is sleeping at his desk when a bunch of dudes dressed in leather knock on his door. He goes to a hollowed-out book and hands them a disc that is handled as if it's both hugely important and secret (the guy pays $2K for it). The guy even says, in a not-so-subtle hint to Neo's destiny, "You're my savior, man. My own personal Jesus Christ." But what was on the disc? What piece of software could be worth $2,000 and would have to be picked up in person? The movie never tells you, and shortly thereafter, Neo meets Morpheus and gets caught up in, you know, the actual movie. For years, fan speculation about the content of the disc has ran amok, with some even surmising that it somehow proves that Neo invented A.I. or that they're other ship pilots, or that the disc has something to do with the code of the Matrix.
well i guess that would explain why he has super powers in the matrix if he programmed admin stuff into the AI
mind BLOWN! that is FUCKING BRILLIANT! i could definitely believe that!
Brandon Withnell also genius!
But wait, I say a hole in that theory. If he was indeed intelligent enough to create something like that, wouldn't he have also put in a fail safe or something along those lines that could shut the AI down with his command? And if so, why did he have to do all that stuff he does in all three movies to stop the AI?
And yet the Matrix still trilogy still sucks.

I can never hear enough of it to get a clear picture of it but that's what it sounds like ever so briefly in between the talking and the clips.
I hope I get a reply.

barneystinsonsuitup1 Ok.
I thought it obvious that James Bond is a code name...
THANK YOU!
it could be like Batman.
As did I
Clearly you have never seen any Bond movie than cause that theory does not work AT ALL.
Definitely haven't seen Skyfall then.
The briefcase is filled with Australiaium. Think about it it's really valuable, gold, and in a briefcase
I got that XD
actualy there was a battery and a light bulb

***** You talk to severed heads in the morning. You can handle it.
some people have to much time on their hands and are really really over thinking things o.O
For some it's a hobby, something you do in your spare time.
i like to talk movies just as much as the next guy, enjoy doing so with friends, but in this video, folks really over over analise to the absurd, rather create original things. IMO
different strokes i guess
Ah man :(( I thought I was the first person to think of the James Bond Code name theory. My theory was a little different tho.
In mine 007 is a different division of MI6 where they like brainwash and train young men into thinking they are a legendary spy named James Bond. "he kept the bond name when he went rogue" because he thinks its his actual name. I also threw in some other things(that would be a little harder to believe because the connection is tenuous.) like the house where James grew up as a kid isn't his dad's old house or whatever but its where they used to train the boys, and MI6 had M assassinated in sky fall by the blond haired guy because she didnt want to be involved in the 007 project anymore because she fell in love with the last bond (Pierce Brosnan) and hated seeing what they did to him after he had to retire as bond. If they made that idea into a movie it would be cool to see the Daniel Craig Bond visit the retirement home where the senile Pierce Brosnan, Sean Connery, and Timothy Dalton are. It would be even cooler if one of the previous James Bond's becomes a Bond Villain because of the way he was treated after being taken out of the program. (like they tortured him for information or something)
The reason i would say that they had the blond guy(Silva) assassinate M is because there's no way he could have planned out all the things he did to escape MI6 without some inside help. Also they immediately had a replacement for M after she died.
Actually I was thinking the same thing about the James Bond theory until now, and I was just going to put some random comment until I saw yours. This theory is more logical than the actual movie story, why would anyone even think that James Bond is one man who is transforming for 50 years? James Bond is probably the special name of the best UK secret agent
isn't the plot of the original Casino Royal (david nivens as james bond) comedy, was to have all the agents named james bond so that he can be everywhere at once and could never really be killed? so peter sellers and woody allen were all james bond. i'll need to google it. so maybe the theory isn't so original.
Dude that is fucking genius and would make for an AWESOME movie
you're all wrong because the movies were based on books and there was only one james bond which always was the same person
Not to nit-pick but there is one recast joke in James Bond. In the opening act of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," George Lazenby says "That never happened to the other fellow" after Diana Rigg slaps him and runs away. Which gives credence to the theory.
There's another theory about Titanic and The Great Gatsby:
Jack Dawson, the penniless artist who wins an ticket to the Titanic, pockets the heart of the ocean and survives the drowning.
He then spends 20 years building his wealth as Jay Gatsby, a millionaire with a shady past and a fear of swimming pools.
And then his son is "The Wolf On Wall Street"
i always thought that
My god, what have we done.
Cinccinotv
And THEN his son uses "Inception" as means for coping the loss of his dead wife.
Robert Ladd Maybe hes a timelord, and he was a farmowner back ni the 18th century...
I've never heard of Jack being Rose's imaginary friend but I have heard the one where he's actually a time traveler because he's mentioned things he'd take her to in America that weren't built yet.
Umm, Why would a time traveler be on the TITANTIC?!?!
Arian Sanders Maybe Jack is Rose's great great grandson.
SonicLamb
Incest much?
Well maybe it's like what happened in Futurama. The guy had to have sex with his grandmother to make sure his father was born.
SonicLamb Fuck, man. That's so wrong. That's like, John Connor sending himself to impregnate his mother instead of Reece.
He sent out golden tickets so he knew how many seats he would need
Lol I was thinking that as well. It's a fun theory though.
They get in the boat AFTER Augustus (one of the kids with a golden ticket) is sucked into the pipe, but there are no vacant seats on the boat.
Jexzl Tremyo Touche! Well then he has to be a serial killer lol.
fuck hunters
Jexzl Tremyo There are freaking oompa-loompas working in the factory, I'm pretty sure that finding a boat with the correct number of seats wouldn't be too much of a problem
The one for Grease makes sense. I should probably really watch it now instead of just skipping to the good songs.
The Dukes of Hazzard is actually a porn movie with the porn removed.
That's *my* theory.
Alex Marcellino :-). Friedkin's 'Cruising' had 40 minutes of what the director called "porn" removed. What would the missing 40 minutes of The Sixth Sense look like?
Or Return of the Jedi? The Nicholas Cage remake of The Wicker Man? Not sure I want to see the lost porn scenes from Mrs Doubtfire.
I haven't seen the movie. . .But if you're talking about the TV show, I think you might be on to something!
***** Or King Kong. You never knew what happened between Kong and Ann in Jack's scenes...
I'm impressed.
what about the theory that Titanic and Inception are linked? Titanic ends with Jack drowning in the water. Inception starts with him washing up on a beach?
No.
That's stupid.
***** It makes no sense at all.
Moist Banana no what?
matajuegosoriginal No as in, that makes absolutely no fucking sense.
The Thing: Childs is infected, I love that one
I forget if its the ride or the video game that confirms that
Without a single recast joke?
Er....
"this never happened to the other fellow"
well, you can't really credit this channel for their research ability.
What about the fan theory that Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album syncs perfectly with the Wizard of Oz?
That's more less of a proven concept then a theory. People have did syncs of it, and the theory checks out. Whether or not it's an insane coincidence or on purpose is a theory.
That's really cool. They're one of my favourite bands. Does it sync exactly or just loosely?
I've only had patience enough to go through half, but he sync I listened to was pretty tight.
MrTron You should listen to the Pink Floyd's song "Echoes" and the final part of "2001: A Space Odessy" (Jupiter and beyond the infinite). It's even better than the Wizard of oz one.
MrTron guys from the band said they didnt do it in purpose, but that if you sync any album to films youre going to get some stuff out of it
I like the Pixar theory. It makes sense.
Lee Hutchings it makes no sense at all. it is all based on Easter eggs and nods. and the rest is completely fabricated. the only "evidence" they show is all easter eggs and nods to its other projects.
Well, that's a fair point. I just choose to believe the idea of a shared universe. That's my opinion, so no one is right or wrong here.
+Lee Hutchings But is it a conspiracy or just the animators leaving Easter eggs for their own,and other insiders', amusement?
+spoomqm ! No there is an actual specific course of events that are linked in various ways. It's definately not random.
Aleks Stojsavljevic
But look at the Star Wars reference in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Was it predicting or put there for the crew's amusement?
The Three Stooges are immortal, hence why they can be anywhere from Ancient Rome, the Civil War or the 1930s.
william lydon immortal Jews...terrifying.
Agent Smith is the One not Neo. How could you not talk about that which for me is amazing and completely plausible.
Jean Alesi It's not just plausible. It is pretty much confirmed by the oracle in matrix 1 when she said he's not the one and at the end of revolution when the architect was speaking to her at the park.
but the oracle tells you exactly what you need to hear
watch matpat's video he brings the evidences.,
Ok. But by the agents standards, what does the one entail, what do they do, or what were they meant to do? And if so, then who is Neo supposed to be, and why was he found when he was and for what purpose? Really, I'd like to hear the idea behind this, pretty neat concept. It changes a whole lot though, so I would need it to be good lol
Viktoria Nease Watch Film Theory's video about it and all will be explained.

David Garcia That is a great point - I didn't see it until I read your comment. :)
The pulp fiction one, the scar is only there because the actor cut his head while shaving
But then why would Tarantino choose to show a close up of it?
But they don't care and at lest it add evidence in the movie where others are do have evidence this goes against it and Quentin Tarantino says said it's what you want
Djrobinv Because the shot looked right.
To not show his face, maybe? Until certain moment, we don't know how he looks like, so Tarantino didn't have other choice but to show the scar, thinking that it would look "rude" anyway, fitting the character. Though I gotta admit it's a preety valid theory.
Or _is_ it? Dun-dun-_duuuuuuuun_.
Where is the "E.T. is a jedi" theory...?
The only issue I have with the Pixar theory is that I don't understand how Cars would fit in, unless it's the exception due to how far off it is and the fact that they don't have quite the reputation that other Pixar movies have.
Cars fits in whilst the movie w-alle is going on.
So all the humans have left the Earth
Morgan Long Well how do they reproduce?
robertsfunny1995 They're machines I guess. They could just build themselves?
Part of the Pixar theory is the creation of magic and being able to make animals and things like toys talk so, I thibk that is where it fits in.
nolan79807 Bingo. According to the theory, the magic in question brings inanimate objects to life, with their main source of energy being the love produced by humans. This is why Cars 2 focuses so much on alternative fuel sources, regular gasoline won't last long enough as a substitute. Their lack of appearance in Wall-E suggests the possibility that such sources ran out for them.
robertsfunny1995 Well, the first machine thought to have gained sentience was the Omnidroid from The Incredibles. It's not too much of a stretch to assume that Syndrome built the line with self replication capacity.
Speaking of, it'll be interesting to see how Incredibles 2 affects the Pixar Theory.
@ theory number 10: Wonka was running a competition. So he knew that the spoilt and nasty children would be tempted by things in the factory and break the rules. They would be kicked out. BUT NONE OF THEM DIED OMG DID YOU EVEN WATCH THE FILM/READ THE BOOK. They were all fine in the end, and they learned a lesson.
Izaak Bookwalter Don't be fucking rude, I've seen the old one as well and still, none of them died because in the book none of them died.
Izaak Bookwalter In the book it said that they lived, and I was under the assumption that the movie was attempting to follow the book.
I just think the theory's stupid.

+Izaak Bookwalter why are you acting like a stick is shoved up your ass?
I think the James Bond theory( and maybe Ferris Bueller) is the only one that might actually be true.
Then you would be wrong.
The Ferris one is really far fetched and can be easily ruled out. People forget Ferris has a sister?
I don't know to be honest, I was referring to your James Bond related comment.
It's not true, not in the slightest.
And "Pulp Fiction" That's a very good theory
Aladdin being set in the future is a stretch. I more believe the theory that the merchant telling the story is the Genie in human form
GalenNight Have you seen the whole theory?
Berelore Yes, I have. It's still ridiculous. The other two Aladdin theories hold more water
It was supposed to be revealed that the merchant telling the story WAS genie thats why Robin Williams voiced them both but unfortunately that part never made it into the film
Mary Weaver it kind of did in a way. I mean, he's wearing blue with a red sash, has the genie's facial hair and has four fingers just like the genie
That's not a theory, that's just true, it's Robbin williams
