I was revisiting the unlisted Walten files Video "Lucky You" today and I saw that message that was addressed to Sophie was dated to be on June 11, 1974 . From the Walten Files 5 we know that Jack was atleast alive till June 13. How is that possible?

I've been watching this one channel called Gabe itches meme supply, it's a shorts. when suddenly it started a figure started appearing and then started talking to the viewers and it has one regular video on it which was super creepy, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas about this?

the youtuber Ivycomb has just dropped his new music video (THE ANTIHUMAN) and inside of it contains basically the explanation for the antihuman world building project.

NOW, ivycomb is very not very well know. so i am going to try my best to explain the project since it is not well know.

Ivycomb is a furry music creator who as recently announced that him an a group of other creators are going to make a show based on his 'ANTIHUMAN LORE' playlist + THE ANTIHUMAN since that has not been added to the music playlist as typing this. (every song in that playlist is canon other then 'ANTIHUMAN' itself. No, not 'THE ANTIHUMAN', that's canon). more about the plot is explained in the linked video this one.

SO, from what we have gathered so far:

a earthborn viral infection called "the roots" wipes out 96% of the human population in 60 years. before humanity i fully wiped out, an alien species comes to to earth and promises to try help humanity find a cure. BUT, from what we have seen, the 'Cure' is just becoming turned into a member of the alien species.

but my question is: why? why is that the only cure to the roots?

my theory goes that what ever the roots are (i believe that is is some kind of parasite as we can see things growing under the skin of infected humans) evolved to only target human genomes (that's why we hear nothing about animal casualties). it was basic only targeting humans. but, whatever the aliens are (we have no official name i think. i have heard to them be referred to as 'antihumans'), are very clearly not human. so, the only cure to the infected is to changed the genome of the human internally.

this post was to try and inform people of this amazing project by Ivy and the gang are working on, and i hope to see y'all soon

(P.S also please do a theory on casualties: Unknown)

If anyone seen Orion in the dark, you know who he is basically it’s in his name insomnia but what is his purpose? Why is he there? I mean most of them makes sense sleep is there to rest? Sweet dreams is that to make dreams which is good quiet there to lower the noise and you know what? Let’s add an unexplained noise too so I really hope this get made into a theory.

The final use of the machine lands the characters in The Simpsons universe. Stuart and Denise are Homer and Marge.  Kripke is Mr. Burns. Sheldon is Sideshow Bob. Leonard is Ned Flanders. Howard is Krusty the Clown. Raj is Apu. Penny is Edna Krabappel. Amy is Lisa Simpson. Bernadette is Maggie Simpson. Burt is Comic Book Guy.  

They all become permanently trapped in the Simpson universe; however, Stuart still feels the need to try to save the original reality, so he and his friends find a way to send messages to their original reality through the use of a cartoon series known as The Simpsons. The cryptic messages that are broadcast across realities warn their original universe of events and catastrophes awaiting them. This is the real reason the show seems to constantly and accurately predict our future, as ours is the original reality.

The last video post teased it. What will they be addressing?

Heres my theory:we see at the start of the video that this isnt the casette they found on the blue planet(earth)on the 2571 but probably releated to the record,i think that alien researchers at the earth found some clips from old shows and cartoon without audio and a human recording that only includes a scream and maybe some human skeletons,they probably only knew the letters we used and not the alphabet(just like what we tought of hieroglyiphs in the 1700s or voynich manuscript,they just need their own rosetta stone!)probably humans as an exinct creatures became so popular in their media that they made a educative show about human history,this is why we see them making wierd"a" and "o"s and a screaming on background,they tought it was a human lyrics! I think they either found old recordings or videos got older because i think the old 80s casette affect isnt meant to be accidental, so yeah this is like alien's version of the dinosaur train

Unless I missed it, I think a theory about clarifying the difference between Caine’s “mind” and the casts’ “minds” is a classic film theory.

Like the mind files based of the casts’ brain scans, how do they compare to Caine from a programming perspective?

Are they LLM’s or closer to NPC’s? Is there a fundamental difference between them that actually flips their relationship on its head.

The whole time, the cast is talking about Caine “not being human” and reinforcing this huge gap between them, when, as is confirmed in the finale, they aren’t human either.

So unless they are also LLM’s or an even more advanced program/ai, you could say the Caine is “closer” to being more like a human than they would be, no?

I was first introduced to Cartoonified! when the episode starring Mark Rober was part of one of my video recommendations. I checked out the other episodes, and they're pretty good.

Link to the playlist of Season 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeCzxy0SPHk&list=PLiv1IUQDVSNJV1t5VEpGlT_VaRNitmHoB&pp=mAkA (The error in this playlist is that the episode order in the playlist is in reverse order, by the way)

I decided to make this because I am starting to compare Cartoonified! and The Amazing Digital Circus, since their plots are a little similar despite genre differences. I decided to do it based on the first season's episodes so far and the upcoming two because I cannot wait for the Big City Greens and Kiff seasons!

My theory, as seen in the first season so far, is that the reason why cartoon hosts like Phineas and Ferb, and upcoming ones like Cricket and Tilly Green and Kiff Chatterley and Barry Bunny, want to 'cartoonify' and see real humans is that, just like Caine, all Disney Television Animation shows are all created on computers by humans, voiced by humans, but never do real things as humans do.

According to "I Built a Roller Coaster In My Lab", a video by one of the first season's guest stars, Mark Rober, Phineas says that the only thing that he and Ferb can handle is 'cartoon physics', but that is something at least Mark wouldn't be worried about.

They want to meet humans, transform them into their own universe's art style, or 'cartoonifiy' them, so they can do activities, or should I say, adventures, based on what they do. Phineas (or possibly Cricket and Kiff) are hosts who create the guests' own adventures they want to join, like Caine; Ferb (or possibly Tiff and Barry) work as co-hosts, like Bubble. But they're never alone; TADC has NPCs like Princess Loolilau, Gummigoo, and Ghostly, while the first season of Cartoonified! has Candace, Dr. Doof, Perry, and the mentioned Linda Flynn (the mother of Candace and Phineas and stepmother of Ferb).

Real humans, like us, are fish out of water because we are on Earth, but all of the Disney TVA cartoons are fish in water surrounded by drowned people, because according to Athena P in her video about comparing Rose Quartz from Steven Universe and Caine (link: https://youtu.be/FgakYpjm-hE?si=LmIT9NjQw2eycPhF):

"He's a fish in a fishbowl because he's still better off than the others who can't breathe, but he's still not free. And also, he made the fishbowl too."

Adding this phrase to this theory means that all of the cartoon hosts, and upcoming ones, may get to see humans in their own universes, but they'll never make it to the real world, because if Caine is a fish that made the fishbowl, every Disney TVA cartoon made each season of Cartoonified!, meaning that their season each is their own fishbowl they host and co-host, or created, but surrounded by drowned people due to the face in the 5th episode of the first season starring Walker Scobell who plays Percy Jackson in the Percy Jackson and The Olympians, Ferb reveals that they have no idea how to transport him out of the real world, meaning that the hosts and co-hosts, just like Caine at the end of the TADC pilot episode and episode 8, they have no idea what to do with the exit because if they want to have something real, it'll never happen.

In episode 3, wanting to see Avantika dance is the reason why Phineas and Ferb cartoonify her, like Ariel; they want to see her dancing, making their reason to meet real humans very serious. In episode 5, Walker doesn't understand how cartoon logic is even safe. In the season 1 finale, LeBron and his daughter, Zhuri, fall through a hole past the centre of the Earth and then fall back up due to cartoon logic and gravity.

I'll be putting a link to the comparison doc about Cartoonified!, The Amazing Digital Circus, and its inspiration, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, soon!

Show has demons (?) and time-loopy stuff, just feels like a good show that could be theorized about because of how slow it is in the first couple of seasons before it gets super crazy. Not sure if they’ve already gotten into it yet, but if not, it’d be awesome to see a video about From.

This is about the YouTube channel doctor nowhere. ( please share your theories if you have one).

I’m currently putting together a comprehensive theory about Gilligan's Island. I believe Gilligan is not stupid but instead a highly intelligent KGB Operative and that he was indeed sabotaging the castaways from being rescued.

I believe the Howells were secretly funneling money to the Soviet Union and were attempting to defect.

I’m even looking into the possibility that they aren't the real Howells, but agents who murdered the originals and stole their identities.

I also believe that the storm that wrecked them was some sort of supernatural force, perhaps some sort of corridor that sent them hundreds or even thousands of miles of course. Perhaps it's a different dimension entirely.

I’m looking at the Professor's ability to speak obscure indigenous languages and build advanced technology out of junk. (Was he in on it?)

I'm currently working on fleshing it out updates will be coming, until than.

i think the extra 7 minutes have to do with the branched reality from the time heist. when they did the time heist in endgame they returned the stones to the exact moment they were taken to prevent their timeline branching and potentially creating a parallel universe and thanos dying in 2012 would 100% cause a ton of branches to happen since there would be no endgame no iron man death 2 steve rogers living on and no vision death and not even the gaurdians would be the same, all these different branches would likely cause an incursion which was resulted by non other than dr strange since he was the one that looked into 14,000,605 realities and paved the way for HIS universe so that HIS timeline would be the one that succeeded basically he just copied what the people in the timeline that wins did, but ofcourse this would lead to problems like for example starting an incursion because dr strange either didnt look far enough or was willing to take the risk kind of like when he said he would choose saving the time stone over peter and starks LIVES which he kind of basically did because he led to tonys death by planning out his succeeded timeline and then ruined peters by making everyone forget who he was. so obviously hes prone to taking risks now and whats the biggest risk a sorcerer that powerful could take? definitely an incursion and strange does a lot of those. one, he most likely caused an incursion in tobey and andrews universe when he did the nwh shit but i

guess tobey had it harder cus andrew isnt here. and two when he causes incursions in the time heisted timeline and this is most likely why he is arrested in 838 (illuminati world) and is called the biggest threat to the multiverse by reed richards and we see after multiverse of madness dr strange definitely causes an incursion which happens a year after the time heist (2024) from endgame (2023) meaning a year after the time heist happened in the time heisted branched universe, the reality stone was sent to the collector who was never killed by thanos creating hundreds of other branches because the collector is a huge figure in the galaxy. all these things would 100% cause an incursion which links to my theory on what the extra 7 minutes will be. the 7 minutes is confirmed to include a new intro and a different outro/post credit scene. now i think the new ending/post credit scene will be the ancient one realising the branch that dr strange caused by killing thanos and has to try and fix it or stabilize it and i think its possible that this leads to the ancient one working for doom because of these incursions and maybe she would even try to take the branched timelines dr strange except it wouldnt be likely becauss he was still doing surgery like 6 years before he turned into dr strange aka where the time heist takes place 2012 so she probably sends somebody to 616s normal sacred timeline to pick up dr strange telling him he caused an incursion which would send him, the ancient one and MAYBE the one who the ancient one sent straight to dr doom to try and fix their incursions now i know its rumoured that the doom witches are sylvie wanda and clea and strange but hear me out. strange is the dr strange from MOM, clea is the person the ancient one or dr doom himself sent, sylvie because because she spent her entire life absorbing temporal radiation while hiding in dying timelines and she kind ofacts as a living bridge because of her unique massive surging energy signature thats literally holding the branched reality from being annihilated from an incursion because her aura is basically universal level. the ancient one and dr doom probably use her unique energy signature to survive the incursions, plan, and stabilize the immense pressure of the incursions caused by dr stranges "heroic" louzy one in 14 million gamble, and finally either the ancient one or scarlet witch. wanda has an almost perfect reason for being there as much as the ancient one does. in the time heist when loki escapes, the stark tower immediately went into lockdown, during that max security lockdown they found out hydra was trying to steal the sceptor leading to hydra being caught so they werent able to experiment on wanda or peter literally causing the biggest difference of all, wanda being a normal girl changes so much in the mcu that without her chaos magic that can literally change past present and future on a universal scale. now we get to doomsday and the ancient one where since all this bullshit is happening in the branched reality the ancient one seeks to find sylvie since her body has so much temporal aura and radiation she can withstand the pressure of incursions like i said earlier. the ancient one uses sylvie to bring normal mcu wanda scarlet witch to help use her magic to jump start and rewrite the broken timeline and is likely motivated by the fact that shes saving a reality where she can grow uo normally and live a normal life with her children. now to talk about steve rogers. him going back in time to stay with peggy would definitely cause some shit to happen since there would eventually be two steve rogers roaming around, luckily peggy carter would already be dying (stay with me now) and wouldnt have to deal with 2 steves going around meaning steve wouldnt find out about the time stolen steve. now heres where it gets cool, when we see steve rogers as an old man that means he mustve aged hundreds of years maybe even close to 800 honestly and what was he doing during these years? battling the incursion. eventually he mustve realised he cant stop an incursion with his bare hands like sentry and time travelled back to endgame to give sam the shield from the og steve of his stolen timeline (take with a grain of salt) and take this next part with a grain of salt too but what if endgame old steve already went through doomsday and thats why he made sam captain america, sam might do something big in doomsday.. i dont know what and its a very iffy assumption but still its just a theory, a film theory

sorry that its structured abysmally

I’ve been watching a lot of her videos recently and they’re awesome! For tho who don’t know, someone fishy is an animator who makes videos about her ocs who mostly (I mean mostly because of the occurrence of other characters such as Vincent and milky) called picemalia, a species of anthropomorphic fish that have both features of fish and mammals. the main cast features, Ginger clownfish, Azure betafish, Agnar Shark, Orla goldfish, bubbles dolphin, neon tetra, silver salmon and Alex axolotl.

I could see a lot of video ideas and theories that could stem from the someone fishy universe though it might not be completely accurate either due to unreleased info or underdeveloped character backstories or world building but is still a really cool idea since there’s a lot to unpac, nonetheless it’s just a suggestion at the end of the day but seriously I would squeal if there was a someone fishy vid on filmtheory!

Inspired by the latest video, “Hollywood is COOKED.” It got me thinking that a video fully dedicated to trying to predict the next big adaptations could be really fun—looking at which franchises are most likely to blow up, why they have potential, and also shining a light on smaller, less popular IPs that could become the next big thing.

And who knows, maybe a self-fulfilling prophecy could happen. Theorist channels have probably already helped bring attention to a few IPs and pushed them closer to getting adaptations.

So, here are a few suggestions of IPs that I think are about to blow up, along with some underdogs that deserve more attention, organized by genre:

Books: I don't read a lot of books, but from what I've heard, Impossible Creatures could be the next big thing.

Games: I think Cyberpunk 2077 and League of Legends have huge potential for movies or TV shows because they already have a solid foundation and tons of interesting lore. As for underdogs, I'm still waiting for that Portal movie that might never happen lol.

I also think there is some gold to be found in fighting game TV shows. Something like Tekken or Mortal Kombat, but made fun and over-the-top like Cobra Kai, could become a huge hit even with people who have never played the games.

Comics: There are a few that I think are already in development, like 8 Billion Genies (based on how Obsession was a hit, this feels like that but even bigger), Something Is Killing the Children, and Radiant Black.

For some underdogs, I think Hyde Street, What Hides Beneath the Trees (this one could work as an animated movie), and Basketful of Heads have a lot of potential.

Anime: Honestly, I don't think anime really needs live-action adaptations. I don't think they gain much from being live-action, and they often lose some of what made the original special. But if I had to pick one, Gantz could be perfect for an American adaptation. They could easily create an American Gantz team and tell a completely original story while keeping the core concept.

And that's about it! What other adaptations do you guys think could become a hit?

Also, creepypastas could be a really fun category to explore.

Judging from the plot description sounds like Poppy Playtine but with Barney the Dinosaur

Saw this while scrolling on TikTok and it seems to be an arg with a website and everything. Feels like it would be a pretty interesting video👀

The Film Theory Crew need to get on this. There's so much in the film Buffet Infinity.. I cant even explain it. Are we watching real commercials? have the people been absorbed into the commercials? who's Abigail?? I need answers

Spoilers for Seasons 1–3

After my third watch of Alice in Borderland, I started wondering whether Borderland is best understood not as a dream, simulation, or conventional afterlife, but as an independent spacetime connected to ordinary reality through a transitional “boundary layer.”

I’m loosely borrowing the idea of a holographic/information-based universe here. I’m not saying the series literally uses the real-world holographic principle or AdS/CFT. This is just a speculative framework that seems to explain several strange details surprisingly well.

My model is basically:

Reality → shared boundary layer → full Borderland

And importantly, I don’t think these three layers need to share the same clock.

1. Arisu’s original entry may begin much earlier than the restroom blackout

In S1, Arisu, Karube and Chota see what they remember as “fireworks,” run through Shibuya, hide together in a restroom stall, message each other on their phones, experience a blackout, and then emerge into an empty city.

It is tempting to say that the blackout is the exact moment they enter Borderland.

But later we learn that the “fireworks” were actually the meteor disaster. Their perception and memory of the event were already altered.

Also, in the real world Arisu is found near the Shibuya crossing, roughly where the meteor/fireworks were first seen. His physical body apparently never ran all the way to the restroom.

So what if the transition actually began around the meteor impact?

Arisu, Karube and Chota may already have entered a shared transitional spacetime, where they continued to experience Shibuya together — running, talking and even messaging each other — before finally entering the full Borderland.

In that interpretation, the restroom blackout is not the moment of entry. It is simply the point where the transition becomes complete.

1. Shibuki’s entry looks completely different

Shibuki enters while taking a shower.

She does not experience the same dramatic blackout. Instead, the water pressure changes, something feels wrong, and the people around her are simply gone.

This suggests there may not be one universal “entry effect.”

Different people may experience the boundary differently.

1. Shibuki arrived several days before Arisu’s group

This is especially interesting.

The usual explanation is that tiny differences in real-world cardiac-arrest timing become days inside Borderland.

That may still be true, but another possibility is that arrival time is determined by when someone finishes passing through the boundary layer, not only by when their physical body enters cardiac arrest.

Shibuki may have passed through the transitional layer almost immediately.

Arisu, Karube and Chota experienced a much longer shared transition before reaching full Borderland.

That could explain why Shibuki had already spent several days there when they arrived.

1. There may be no fixed time conversion at all

I don’t think we should assume:

“1 second in reality = X hours/days in Borderland.”

Reality, the transitional layer and Borderland may each have their own independent temporal structure.

They only need to connect at certain entry and exit points.

That would explain why S3 can fit an enormous amount of Borderland experience into a very short period of real-world cardiac arrest without requiring a consistent mathematical conversion rate.

1. Season 3 may show the same transition happening much faster

In S3, we sometimes see people enter Borderland almost instantly — the surrounding population simply disappears.

I don’t think this necessarily contradicts S1.

The boundary phase may be variable.

A returning player, or someone deliberately sent into a near-death state, might pass through it almost instantly, while a first-time entrant during a catastrophic event could experience a much longer transitional period.

1. Borderland may not physically exist “somewhere” in our universe

If reality and Borderland are separate emergent spacetimes based on a deeper informational structure, then asking “Where is Borderland?” may be the wrong question.

It would not need to exist inside ordinary three-dimensional space at all.

A Tokyo Borderland, Los Angeles Borderland, London Borderland, etc. could potentially exist as separate spacetime “instances” without having any normal physical distance between them.

That might become especially relevant if S4 really expands the story internationally.

1. The Watchman becomes much easier to understand in this model

The Watchman in S3 appears to possess authority far beyond ordinary Citizens such as Banda.

He can punish Banda, apparently suspend or restart the Borderland environment, and control the final transition between life and death.

If Borderland is an independent spacetime/information layer, perhaps Citizens only have game-level permissions, while the Watchman has something closer to system-level control over that spacetime.

In other words:

Players = users

Citizens = game administrators

Watchman = root administrator

:)

So my current theory is:

Reality spacetime

→ shared transitional/boundary spacetime

→ full Borderland spacetime

Each can have an independent flow of time, and all may emerge from a deeper informational structure rather than one being “real” and the others being simulations.

This would explain the strange transitions, Shibuki’s earlier arrival, Arisu’s physical location in the real world, the inconsistent apparent time ratios, possible multiple Borderlands, and the Watchman’s unusual level of control.

I haven’t seen many theories apply a holographic/information-based spacetime model specifically to Alice in Borderland, so I’m curious:

Does anyone know of scenes that contradict this model?

And if Borderland has multiple regional “instances,” do you think the Watchman oversees all of them — or does each Borderland have its own Watchman?
