Game Night, The Game, War Games, Gamer, Death Race, Ready Player One, Honor Among Thieves, Black Mirror, Zathura, Wreck-It-Ralph, TRON & TAG all take place in a universe where Jumanji changed the game

I mean, it's not even like I have much to go off on this besides the fact that all movies are about groups of friends and families going WAAAAAAY too far in their game play. But as I sit here and watch them back to back, they're all so similar in execution (while not necessarily stylistically the same) that I can't help but wonder. We don't have anything this extreme in our reality outside of Superbowls and Olympics. But what if there were no major league football leagues or national gymnastics competitions because magic board games could alter the laws of reality. Would people go to higher extremes in how they "play" games. Because that would be kinda badass. I for one would totally sign up for the Murder We Wrote party from Game Night.

So let's say that the Jumanji game has existed for hundreds of thousands of years. A primordial game passed through myth and ancestry. People would be effected by it, empires would fall in their attempts to control it, and there would be constant desires to replicate it. Everytime it resurfaces, the whole planet gains a level and skill points. Leading to things like the Zathura board or the technology from ENCOM in TRON. And at a time that the US government realized the political power of play in War Games, certain industries and services would arise to fuel that expansion.

To fill a void found in the populace by people effected by these games or those wanting to relive them, another company pops up in the form of Consumer Recreation Services from The Game. This is when gaming truly becomes popular in the larger masses. Everyone is playing now. And they're going to extremes like the lifelong game of tag in TAG or the friends in Game Night. Hell, even the games are getting in on the play now and taking after WOPR in Wreck-It-Ralph.

And who knows, with all those leaps and bounds made socially and technologically, these Jumanji jumps could create something like the Oasis from Ready Player One. Or even stranger, a full immersive experience as witnessed in the Dungeons and Dragons movies or Black Mirror's USS Callister and Striking Vipers. Jump it up another level with some Bandersnatch! Hell, since we're here, turn it games into a punishment for cons in Gamer or Death Race.

And it's all that fucking Jumanji's fault. That psycho "In the jungle you must wait, until the dice read 5 or 8" mad juju throwing specter of cosmic horror.

What other game movies can we shove into this theory? I tried to find em all. Or at least the relevant ones.

Worm is a sequel to an alternate timeline of Attack on Titan

First, some context, with spoilers for both Attack on Titan and Worm.

In Worm, there are Interdimensional creatures known as Entities, that we come to discover, are the source of the powers in the setting, which they do by attaching fragments of themselves, called Shards, onto humans. Their overarching Modus Operandi and goal is to travel through space and dimensions, looking for planets with (intelligent) life forms to experiment on them hoping to find a solution to Entropy. Then, when they have gathered enough data, they destroy the multiple dimensional versions of said planet to launch themselves into space to continue the cycle. Entities are described to be as "worm-like" in appearance.

In Attack On Titan, we come to discover that a worm-like creature, known as the "Source of living things" is what gave the Titan Shifters their powers. We know less about the origin of this creature, but we know that its primary objective is the same as all living things: Survive. The difference with other living beings, and the similarity to Entities, is that they not only look to survive as a matter of instinct; they seem to be aiming to make life itself survive, it's why they're called the "source of living things" and why they want to stop entropy, respectively. Also they do not merely survive on its own, they latch onto other beings, and grant them powers.

Furthermore, both Entities and Titans have a similar device: The Firmament and the Paths. They both serve as a kind of storage for memories; the Firmament or Shardspace stores all the info gathered by the Entities, while the Paths serve as a conduit for Servants of Ymir, where their minds converge, and some of their memories are stored too. There are more overlapping concepts, but I feel like this is enough.

So my theory is that on a version where Eren couldn't find another solution, or was more strongly influenced by the Source of Living Things, the Rumbling destroyed not only his Earth, but all versions of Earth, which allowed the Source of Living Things to propel itself, along with its newly formed, albeit smaller, network of Shards, through space to find new planets to keep experimenting on.

Doctor Emmet Brown from Back To The Future is Max Taber from One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

Reason why I said this was because the two characters in both movie are played by Christopher Lloyd and reason why I say this is because Dr Brown made a time traveling car the DeLorean so maybe Dr Emmet Brown drove back a few years back and ended up in 1975 and maybe his car got messed up that he tried to repair it with all the things he could get his hands on but it failed which Injured him and he had amnesia that he forgot who he was so he makes a new name for himself and is actually crazy which caused him to get sent to the Oregon state mental hospital where EDIT: I also just remembered that Dr Brown was sent to an Asylum in BTTF 2 which further proves my theory thanks to the person who commented on here about that

John Carpenter Kurt Russel Trilogy Theory

So I've had this little theory bubbling around in my subconscious so it's finally time to reveal it. John Carpenter made 3 films in the 80s with Kurt Russell (Big Trouble in Little China, The Thing, and Escape from New York). In my mind, these films form a trilogy. The first film is Big Trouble in Little China, where Kurt Russell plays a truck driver, and at the end of this film some shit goes down in little China. In this theory, he had to leave the states, change his name, and was relocated to Antarctica where to be a helicopter driver at a research facility.

The second film is The Thing in which Kurt Russell plays a helicopter pilot, and an alien tears the research facility apart. At the end of the film, Kurt Russell and some other guy (who is The Thing) share a drink. In my theory, Kurt and the other guy were rescued and sent to America where the other guy spread The Thing, causing the government to take extreme measures to get rid of it. They didn't stop there though, the government got increasingly facist and turned the island of Manhattan into a prison. Meanwhile, Kurt Russell becomes a criminal, loses his eye and gets a snake tattoo, now being known as Snake Plissken.

The final film in the trilogy is Esacpe from New York where Snake Plissken has to rescue the President o the prison island. Perfect trilogy

Final Fantasy VII Remake/Rebirth connection with Dissidia

This will be a convoluted theory, but I wanted to discuss the possibility. Okay, so for a little context, this takes inspiration from the not-confirmed connection between Stranger of Paradise and Dissidia, as it is implied that the Emperor and Gilgamesh that appeared in the DLC are from Dissidia NT.

Could be the possibility that the reason Sephiroth knows too much and is obsessed with Cloud and changing fate is not only rooted in his ending on Advent Children but also in what he learns in the Dissidia Wars?

Could the FF7R trilogy be another chapter on the Dissidia Cycles as Stranger of Paradise is indirectly a sequel to Dissidia NT?

Let me know your opinions about this crazy theory.

The force gives force sensitive beings a form of "plot armor"

Basically since the force is an energy that permeates the galaxy it can manipulate events so that things go the way of the force user this can explain why force users have a kind of "plot armor"

Dr. Facilier's friends on the other side are related to Aladdin's Genie

My only proof is that Genie introduces himself with the song "Friend like Me", and being a supernatural being he WILL outlive Aladdin. Or maybe it was another Genie with the same mindset.

So, a Genie meets a young meddler Facilier somewhere in the past behind the scenes, wins him over with his "You aint never had a friend like me" routine, and several years later Facilier is an experienced trickster with his voodoo and his hoodoo and the things he never tried...because he's got friends on the other side. Maybe Genie introduced him to some of his acquaintances.

Posting here because it isn't really serious enough for the fantheories sub that requires proofs.

In the song Stan by Eminem, there are two separate instances where guys kill themselves by driving off a bridge, but Eminem isn’t aware of the instance involving Stan.

If Eminem knew Stan was dead, why would he write him a letter? Is he stupid or something?

No, of course not.

So in Stan’s last message, he locks his gf in the trunk and then drives his car off a bridge. In Eminem’s response letter, he describes a similar incident he heard on the news, leading the listener to think he’s talking about Stan. However, then Eminem delivers a twist: “His name was… it was You! Damn!”

So this incident involves a man named You, not Stan! It’s unclear which incident happened first- maybe You copied Stan, maybe Stan copied You, or maybe both situations were completely unrelated. But the song ends with Eminem shuddering in horror, sickened by You’s disgusting actions, and unaware of Stan’s death. He’s afraid that Stan might do something similar, and tries to offer help before that happens. If only he knew!

Jon snow is the real night king

Ik that's weird to say that , but I've rewatched the whole series and i found out that the night king and jon snow are like Tyler dorden and the narrator of "fight club"

The night king is the oppiste of him , and they both were born in the same period

A lot of people think the night king is bran stark but i don't think so , bran is too pussy to be someone like him (i hate bran tbh)

So i don't think the night king is a delusional character like Tyler dorden but he's kinda a The dark Side of Jon Snow

(Ik I'm totally wrong)

Robocop takes place in the same world as any 1980s pornography movie, or maybe all of them.

In the first fifteen minutes of this movie, we’re shown a world of capitalism and consumerism run amok at a deeply embedded and societal level. It’s “Wall Street” on steroids and PCP, where high powered executives are the big swinging dicks of the world. However, we’re also shown low level blue collar police officers performing actions that are intended to be as downright super heroic as they are farcical. Is this just Detroit or is this, ostensibly, indicating that a vast swath of human society accepts these values as positive? After all, violence sells.

And then, eighteen minutes in, Officer Lewis loses a stare down with a violent criminal because she can’t help but look down at his dick, resulting in her getting punched out. And I ask myself, is this just a personal and professional failing on her part that we should really judge her for? Or, is this also a world where sex sells just as much as violence? And might it also be that it’s not just a world where capitalism and violence are virtues, but that a sort of “porn logic” has become the norm as well? Where sometimes arrests are avoided by a sexual encounter, and her looking at his dick was just Officer Lewis gambling on a perfectly normal “sexual meetcute” that turned out to be a bluff this time.

Because, I don’t want to slut shame anyone, or yuck anyone’s yum, but: girl, if that’s just a you thing, seek some counseling. That’s dangerous. Murphy got ambushed and blown to smithereens because you looked down at a dangerous criminal’s dick. If that’s not a societal norm, you need to get right with the Lord.

Does the crime rate skyrocket during grey sweatpants season?

Universal theorie

So, I believe that since the universe looks like a nervous system, it really is one.The universe is a giant nervous system that sustains its own monstrous creature.We are a part of a single nerve in our size and cannot really harm the living being, but larger things such as black holes, which then "eat up" other things, could harm the living being, as they can be seen as a virus or bad bacteria.This creature is of course a cat because outside this large creature, there is a much larger world with many other cats, all of which have their own vast nervous systems involving planets, stars, and even, unlike the big cats we seem to live in, small life forms.These cats are of course all playing with a ball of wool and have a great life while we completely destroy their inner climate.

-cats are cool

Usopp is Kaku's secret brother or cousin.

HEAR ME OUT ON THIS.

  1. They both got long noses, that's an in universe joke.

  2. They both build shit, Usopp was the shipwright up until Franky joined, and Kaku was also a shipwright; even if it was just a cover-up.

  3. Usopp may have left the strawhats (for like 5 episodes) because he knew Kaku was his brother and didn't want to confront him about it. It may also be why he was very hesitant to fight him, other than him being a coward.

Mythbusters and Jet Lag

The Mythbusters (with the obvious exception of Grant) are the Jet Lag crew after some weird reversion in space-time in their middle-age years. I dunno, has anyone else thought Sam Denby might become like Adam Savage once he reaches Adam's age?

The Wizard Of Oz x How The Grinch Stole Christmas

This theory may sound crazy at first, why would these two completely unrelated pieces of media be connected in the slightest? Well with these couple of points I will convince you that they are connected.

  1. The Whos from Dr Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas canonically live inside of a snowflake. In The Wizard Of Oz, there is snow that Glinda puts onto the poppies to wake up Dorothy and the cowardly lion. This confirms the existence of snow, which would suggest Whos could exist.
  2. Both worlds have similar dialects, with words being made up and modified English.
  3. The architecture both are very goofy and out of this world.
  4. The clothes are all very old looking, along with being a bit silly.
  5. Both pieces of media have green villain, which may not mean much, but it clearly shows that in each world they favour ones who aren't green, showing how they have very similar tastes in which people they like.
  6. Babies in Whoville fly down in baskets, like how Dorothy came to Oz in her house.

ebeneezer scrooge was bipolar

it is well established that ebeneezer scrooge was a miserable person who lived in solace and did his best to never interact with people he didn’t have to, however we also know he hasn’t always been this way from the flashback (depressive episodes can last for years). he hallucinates seeing his old friend, then goes on to have 3 more hallucinations of ghostly spirits. this causes him to enter a manic episode where he is seen being a completely different person, being frivolous with money and more energetic than he has been in years, he is extremely high spirited and vows to change his entire life, he clearly has racing thoughts about all the good he wishes to do in the world.
