OOOH boy, loyal Theorists! The FNAF movie was a doozy. We've already predicted what was going to happen in the FNAF movie. We've shown behind the scenes of the MatPat cameo. Heck, we've even discussed Five Nights at Freddy's alternate ending. But, now.... oh NOW we get to take a deep dive into all of the FNAF movie LOOORE! Let's do this thing.

The fact people cheered when Mat showed up at the exact same energy as the other spidermen showing up in no way home just shows the impact this man has had.
E

Yeah, especially on the five nights at freddys community.
This is yes
When i watched the movie in the cinema, barely anybody reacted to his cameo smh
My biggest wish for FNAF 2 is that Markiplier is the one who gets bitten. He'll come full circle from saying, "Was that the bite of 87?" To being in the bite of 87. It's just too perfect
or a person in the background saying that
dude, your wish is amazing! I really do hope they deliver this one, Markiplier would be so happy to do it, and I do think Scott is generous and kind enough to invite him. Man, if your wish becomes reality, as a Markiplier and fnaf fan I feel like this would make me so happy! It would also kind of settle how the fnaf management really cares about the community and is more than so willing to give us fanservice due to knowing how passionate we are about it, at least imo
@@Itsatozed he definitely would do it, he was going to be the guy who dies at the start of the first movie but he was already busy filming his own movie. It's really a shame he couldn't make it but I can't be in 2 places either. He's likely gonna be in the 2nd one tho!
Lets not ruin the movie pls
@@shomi8791what are you talking about??
the fact movie afton is way smarter then his game counter part is a really great spin on the movie, makes his final "I always come back" line seems more understanding, sum were mad cuz it felt rushed but, if you know you’re dying but have a chance of coming back you'll be rushing too
True! If you thinking about it he will know that he will come back like how other missing children he killed come back as their favourite animatronics!
What for real life
but its like how would he know he's gonna come back??? But matpat explained it here.
yeah but i still feel like its a bit off, like he hasnt come back yet so its weird to say "i always come back", like sure if he knew he was gonna come back maybe he should've said "ill be back" or something like that but saying "i always come back" when he hasn't come back a single time yet just doesn't make sense
that was something that slightly bugged me in the theater, the deliverey of the line didn't quite have the same power and confidence as the line in the game.
In the game, it's delivered with such power and authority, it's not a hope or promise, it's FACT, William Afton ALWAYS comes back.
The delivery in the movie, however, actually serves to humanize Afton, there's fear in his voice, he's in pain, he knows he's running out of time.
It's not the confidence of the game version, because while Afton clearly knows more about ghosts and possession than his game counterpart, he wasn't exactly eager to test it for himself. It genuinely is a hope, hoping he comes back just like the ones he killed.
Dear Matpat,
I just wanted to let you know, that when I went to see the FNAF movie, the second you walked on screen the whole theater started scream-cheering, calmed down to hear you talk, and started up again when you said your famous line. there was no other time in the entire film that the theater cheered so loud. all-in-all, thank you for all that you've done with the FNAF series and how much you were able to bring people into this amazing (yet slightly terrifying) world.
Thank you!
P.S. I am now 100% going to get the fuzzy withered Freddy jacket
“It’s just a theory” 🤭
@@Erins_Chxrub A GAME THEORY
It makes sense why the kid wasn't freaking out in the back seat. He knew who was kidnapping him. Considering most kidnappings are done by somebody that the child knows it peices together nicely.
That's a good theory, but at the same time wouldn't Mike have known him too?
@@arandompersonconthat’s true
@@arandompersoncon Maybe he changed his look just like he changed his identity and his daughter's identity
@@arandompersoncon If he were to actually see his face. If he saw him, then yes. But as he was looking at the details though his dream to see who it was he obviously didnt see him.
true thats mostly why kids now are taught about tricky people not stranger danger.
They knew that putting MatPat in the movie was the right idea
Nice
Nice one
Hey but that's just a theory
A film theory!
👍
I like to believe that the FNAF movie has its own lore, just like the books. Because William Afton’s daughter is Vanessa instead of Elizabeth, and instead of Evan it’s Garrett.
you are actually correct to think that. the movies have been confirmed to be non-canonical with nods towards the games
even more convulted
Evan isnt a canon name tho
@@PumpkinTedi've always called him chris or CC
The biggest issue is that Mike didn’t know anything about the restaurant before he was given the job. If his dad helped make the place, he’d probably know.
When he was younger, possibly. But it is easy to forget that type of stuff, especially with how Mike's father was after Garrett went missing. Mike was completely believing that his trauma from the event from suppressing who took Garrett, which is possible to be the case. Who's to say he didn't experience a traumatic event involving Freddy's at some point and those memories were surpessed as well?
Maybe "Henry" left the company, before or soon after his kids were born?
But what if they started at a different location like in Game 2, this being in the movie located in Nebraska, where Garrett was abducted, and somewhere along the line, Mike and his family move to Minnesota. But that's just a theory :)
To be honest, despite never having read the books, I never questioned why the drawing worked. That felt totally plausible within the context of a ghost story. Compare it to the kinds of solutions there are to supernatural creatures in folk stories:
A sleep demon can't get you if you get into bed backwards
If a spirit sneaks in through your keyhole, covering the keyhole will make it unable to find its way out (not because it can't get past the cover, because it literally can't find the keyhole)
Vampires can't enter a home unless invited.
In that context, 'ghost children believe drawings because drawings are important parts of how kids communicate' feels totally at home
Art is just a wordless form of communication so why not? Unless they were going into his dreams too?
There doesn't even have to be a supernatural explanation- I mean, they forgot and the drawing reminded them.
Being a guy who loves psychology, I loved that they used drawings. It’s simple children psychology and it all just fits so perfectly
right! and especially because thats established early on that thats the easiest way for abby to communicate it makes sense that thats how shed communicate to the kids!
edit: also, what reason would another child have to lie to them? i think it being abby who was able to communicate to them is arguably more important then their chosen method of doing so.
Yeah I agree. Drawings are just another form of communication that involves images instead of words so Abby telling kids that their killer is William though a pic-
wait... getting into bed backward? How?
I wish the production team luck in their attempts to understand mangle's anatomy. They will most certainly need it.
Edit: Holy shinx. This is the most likes I think I've ever recieved. Thank you!
its going to be a nightmare to control mangle as well
If anyone can manage it, Jim Henson's company can.
I would compleatly understand if they cgi mangle. They did a great job with the rest so far tho.

@@theuglypotato7017Mangle being cgi makes more sense and easier but who knows, they might surprise us one day
May I also say that the irony of the guy that played Shaggy from Scooby-Doo being the “bad guy in the suit” at the end, incredible!
I think you're 100% on Garrett being the puppet. I noticed, by listening to the soundtrack on that specific part of the credits, that the vocalizing kids in the background are making the same "airplane flying" noises that Garrett was before he was taken. If you listen to it, you'll here it randomly in the song. I love Scott's puzzles.
Matpat's cameo was the greatest easter egg in film history
100%
But that’s just a theory
Markiplier was also meant to be one, but scheduling conflict prevented him from joining in as a cameo too
@@axeltheghost6824yeah that too
YEA
I love how this film and the whole vibe in the community feels like a return to form after all these years. Don’t get me wrong, I love FNAF both modern and old, but seeing those old characters in these iconic sets, hearing Foxy humming again…. it’s time travel
E
Fitting that there's a ball pit in the movie then
@@lukasruston8618 ayo
Gotta get in the ball pit somehow
It's like seeing a grey Mike Schmidt and a phone guy with a rotary phone head named Scott.
I won't put down modern FNaF for not being like it, but by Lucifer, I'll never stop loving it.
Seeing matpat show up in the movie and then the living tombstone in the credits with the most iconic fnaf fan song made me realize Scott Cawthon is definitively the best creative there can be. He made something iconic and great and treats the fans so so well.
Remember back in the old FNaF 2 days, when MatPat theorized that Phone Guy was the purple guy all along.
Now cut to 2023. "Steve Raglan" is obviously supposed to be the stand in for Phone Guy (I'll catch you on the flipside) and who does he turn out to be? William Afton.
Can we just appreciate that we finally have a film theory for fnaf
like... thats actually crazy
Exactly what I was thinking. Instinctively clicking on game theory to find this video and then realizing it was on the film theory channel was an amazing feeling
@@rosem43130 it was finally corrupted after so many years watching game theory's fnaf vidoes, it to has been poisoned with fazgoo
When I first saw this on my recommended I was so confused y it was on film theory
Yeah, I've been rewatching some of the older videos, and it's *crazy* how early in the playlist they start joking about the movie eventually coming out.
I just realized this was a Film Theory video, that’s actually crazy…
It feels so nostalgic to watch Matpat talk about the first FNAF games again.

Can't wait for the second movie! All we have to do is wait another 8 years
😃
It’ll probably come after 1-2 years
They’ve already started the production
i think its coming out in 2024 hopefully
Actually they’re working on it so it’s probably gonna come in 2024-2025
Production has begun this year, so we may see it late 2025, early 2026!
The movie brings up something that could completely change the way we think Fnaf works. They said this place has been closed down for years but still needs a night guard and in the movie Micheal has a modern cell phone (usually in movies set in the past they use old phones). So what this could mean for the games is Micheal dosent go to the restaurants until way later in the story like present day or even the future
Having been a fan since 2015 of both Matpat and FNAF, I’m so proud of this franchise and channel
I am too
Same here, MatPat and this franchise have gone so far

@@Shattered6493are you kidding.
@@Shattered6493 You're 5 years old?!
Now that it is confirmed that they are going to actively try to get Markiplier to cameo in sequel, I have a feeling that it's gonna outperform the first one. Other movie studios should take note, make movies that the FANS of the franchise will like, not the critics.
Yup critics don’t know what they’re talking about when it comes to any movie that isn’t a stand-alone based on nothing.
@@dinonugsvr1928 this comment radiates "I have absolutely no idea what makes a movie good or bad" energy.
@@dinonugsvr1928 It's not even that, it's that the fans are the ones who are going to hype the movie up to their friends and families. They're the ones who are going to go gaga over the trailers and share them across social media. The movie had a big advertising campaign, of course, but the fans did so much of the advertising *for free* because they truly believed in the end product and wanted to share the joy of this weird thing they've all adored for years with the rest of the world.
@@DanielLovesArtand this comment radiates the energy of someone who likes to criticize other people's opinions without making it constructive. What's the point of your personal attack, did you feel alluded by the comment perhaps?
On a side note, if we measure a film's success by the amount of happiness, engagement, etc it brings to viewers, and if viewers are as clueless as you purport the previous commenter to be, then it stands to reason the average viewer won't value what expert critics believe to be important for a movie and, in return, this validates the opinion of the original commenter. For a movie to succeed, it must be tailored for the viewers and fans, not the critics, even if that makes it artistically inferior, it will be superior with regards to its entertainment value, the reason most movies exist in the first place, this particular one included.
DONT CARE I HAVE BETTER VIDEOS!!😂😂
I watched FNAF with my best friend. We passed the time waiting for our session to open talking about our relationship with FNAF and how it walked with us throughout our friendship. And, of course, when Matpat showed up in the screen, we fangirled together, holding our hands and silent screaming for a couple of minutes. It was a great night
My current theory about the FNAF movie (ignoring the blatant inconsistencies between movie and games) is that the movies are a prequel to the games. Mike Schmit was an actual person and everything happened as in the movie did, ad it all happened BEFORE the first FNAF game. That's why the kitchen camera works in the movie but doesn't in the games. It broke and the animatronics are keeping it broken since that's where Afton is. The temp company is still hiring people for the job because it continues to be open, as Afton is unable to stop anything. Michael Afton is still himself and takes the fake name of "Mike Schmit" because it was easier to get a job there as a previous employee. The real Mike Schmit tries to get Vanessa psychological help and that ties into VR. He decided to stay out of the Afton drama because he wants to help his sister and also the spirits move on, which means they can too, and he learns to value the present rather than linger on the past the way he does in the movie. Does it make sense? Only vaguely. But hey I like it.
i like it too
The problem for me is that if they do have Mike's father as one of the founders of Freddy's alongside Afton, it would be hard to explain away Mike's lack of knowledge of the pizzeria prior to the first movie.
oh sugar !
Yeah, they might try to explain it with something like Amnesia or illusion disk, or henry being cautious like afton in the game/book lore and prevent his children from getting anywhere close to the pizzeria thus explaining their lack of knowledge of fredbear pizzeria, or he simply done with animatronic business and bail out before having family/before mike old enough to know thus prompting afton to resent him and explain mike 0 knowledge about fredbear dinner.
it is possible he couldve never told them, just, "dads off to work now"
or it could be he worked there before his children was born, got into a fight with william afton and left it all.
@@unknownuser260to be fair, Mike was already pretty young when William took his brother. Whatever happened between William and his dad had to have taken place a little while before that so he easily could've just been too young to remember ever going to Freddy's
Matpat unironically is the most historical man that ever stepped on this platform

MatPat: Let's solve where the sequel is headed years before they actually make it
The sequel: Filming starts in a few months
Movie Afton is successfully my favorite version of William Afton. Not only was Matthew’s performance amazing. But he is successfully way smarter than his other counterparts.
I love how MatPat accepts he is now canon to the lore and decides to fully analyze every nook and cranny to what part of the timeline he is in.
The next Movie will probably have him Cameoing in a different Role - where a friend uses the Nickname 'Sans' to refer to him, completing the "Sans = Ness" Reference Scott Cawthon intentionally set up for MatPat...

Now he has 2 sons

12:21 I’m so accustomed to the meme version of this scene that I was confused when I heard it normally.
The movie had so many little Easter eggs and payoffs to all the people that have played all the games. Really awesome that the creators took the time to make sure they got *EVERYTHING* right.
I actually love the idea that the family we've been calling the Emilys are actually the Schmidts, if we wanna carry that over to the game timeline. It turns Mike's choice of fake name in FNAF 1 from something random into a giant middle finger to his dad, which, narratively, I'm a huge fan of.
Honestly, that would be the funniest thing if it actually does transfer over. Just… casually dropping his last name for his dad’s nemesis’s.
@@GachaLifeGirlI love pettiness
I was gonna say this but ya beat me to it. Lol
"Lol i'm Henry's son now b!tch"
i really love this idea too and looking back it would have made so much sense even without much evidence presented. on a side note i found a YT channel that posts creepy videos and hidden messages. POSTcontent is the name of this youtuber it would be cool to see matpat do a theory on this
The thing that breaks my heart for Mike is that we get to see it happen. When he says "I only looked away for a second" we see it, and it LITERALLY WAS just a second. A single second.
Edit: And it’s not even like he was distracted. He looked down to stand up from the picnic table! Who could blame him for that?
Survivor's guilt. It isn't his fault at all and yet he blames himself.
@@verdantmistral442Yeah I don’t see how Mike could’ve helped at all in that situation even if he did see it happen. Maybe identify William but that’s about it
who here has cried bcs of the new vid 😔
Hearing the name “Granite Falls” floored me because I live right next to Granite Falls, WA
One of the things that caught my attention was that when Mike was bargaining in the dreamworld with the children, his father remained completely quiet. Everybody else spoke, even Garrett. But his father could have been replaced by a plant and wouldn't have changed the scene at all
The kids might not like him, assuming he is Henry and William doesn't like him
@@JackWilkegood, i’m happy for him
Maybe he is just in disbelief that his son was being kidnapped
I still think that when William recognized Mikes last name that he just realized that it was Garrets last name, especially being his first victim and all.

With so much lore, it was probably the best idea just to mix it all together and come up with the story using all the best bits
hopefully they not trying too hard to mix all theories into this franchise it will be hectic and confusing. i prefer more slow burner lore fits the uncanniness of fnaf
They shouldn’t do that, just so a hard reset and just go back to a simple story because they ruined it with all the dumb story telling that scott kept coming with to just milk the series and put nonsense to generate tons of theories, I used to like fnaf a lot but then they added too much dumb stuff
@@DragonSlicerI honestly think that Scott is just trying to answer all of our questions from all of the lore he’s thrown at us. He’s trying to untangle the lore with the movies I think. I could be wrong but it’s my best guess
@@DragonSlicer same i missed old fnaf back to fnaf 1 until sister location. The horror elements what makes fnaf special in the first place so why not implement more horror than a thriller into movie?
@@Joehairsniffer idk if he wants to do that because if questions actually be answered then there won’t be anymore theories and no never videos/games/books where they can introduce even more wacky nonsense to prolong the story, like I absolutely hate the whole “time traveling ball pool pit”, “kid draws the animatronics from the past where the pizzeria didn’t even exist yet”, “(security breach) somehow the vr headset just makes stuff exist and basically just lets you teleport and go through walls because there can be nowhere to go and they put on the vr headset and then there is a hole they can go through so if someone else isn’t wearing on they will just see them basically NoClip”
Like the whole story before is just purple guy just killed kids and put them in suits and now their souls haunt the pizzeria, which is simple and good backstory but now with all the stuff they keep introducing a lot of it seems to contradict each other so they have to say “it’s a multiverse so each media is its own canon” but still wants to say “the other media source is canon in this one also” making it too confusing
I got the explanation for three questions in one sentence. Great job Mat! Also an amazing video as always.

“This time it’s different he’s out in nature..” rare sighting of afton in the wild killing
I just saw the movie today! 1. I absolutely LOVE it! And 2. When MatPat came up I remember people in the cinema start talking with each other and right after he said ‘it’s just a theory’ I had to finish it and say ‘a game/film theory!’ That nobody besides my mother noticed.
I'm so glad Mat thought of a reason why Garrett's fate was never brought up. It was strange how the ghost kids knew about him, even though he was killed in a completely separate incident. That, and the fact that Garrett was kidnapped during a vacation in another state, and his kidnapper happened to live in the same town as the Schmidts. This coincidence really bothered me. But if William targeted Garrett because of a family dispute, then it wasn't a coincidence.
But this theory raises a question: if Mike's dad really is supposed to be Henry, then why did Mike know so little about Freddy's? You'd think he would've met the animatronics that his father built. And he never even heard about the Missing Children's Incident. I hope the second movie offers an explanation for that.
I'm sure the dad wanted him to stay away from everything
maybe he just pushed out of his mind or the dad kept him away from there or something like that.
Exactly! His dad would have no reason to keep it secret, Freddy's used to be a fun family destination back then and Vanessa said that it was quite a hit in their town so it made no sense to me that Mike was so clueless
Henry probably gotten too involved with his work, never spending time with Mike as a result.
@@Ingaming_Coma246it's possible, but then I'd think Mike would know what his dad was ignoring him for, or at least know a semi-popular and recognizable restaurant in his town

That a bad idea because the starting theory’s are all wack nowadays only reason 6 are somewhat right but nobody know with fnaf
While watching the movie I noticed 3 scenes that were oddly similar to scenes in the silver eyes.
First was in the intro, the last child that was taken was wearing a blue shirt and stood there with "the yellow rabbit" to his left, before being taken away. This lines up to the flashback that John has, when he tried to recall how Michael (The blue shirted child) was taken.
The second was when Abby was being chased by foxy, she went and hid behind the pinball and arcade machines where foxy almost got to her, but she jumped in the ball pit, and Mike tazed Foxy right before he got her. Where in the book, charlie went and hid behind some arcade machines while foxy came and destroyed the machines while trying to move them to get to her, but John drop kicked Foxy out of the way.
The last scene came shortly after in both the book and the movie (10 pages, and about 10 minutes later) when after the spring lock scene, Afton gets dragged off (Foxy dragging him with his hook in a hole I his suit in the movie, and Freddy dragging him by the arm in the book) into a dark hallway while (Mike in the movie and John in the book) "carries" (Vanessa in the movie and Charlie in the book) out of the pizzeria.
14:17 this also might be something they might use for the spring trap scenes in later movies when he removes the mask but it's just a early prototype
Despite all lore stuff, it's so impressive that a movie with a budget of one episode of "she hulk" looks so good and so enthusiastically received by the audience
Now that the film got such a big proit we could also expect a step up in quality for the next film

@@UTTPCaptain nah my content is better
We need a scene with Markiplier being filled in on all of the shenanigans happening at Fazbears, and then him going through security footage to see the bite that started it all and dropping his iconic line.
That would be legendary
Heck they will probably do it
Especially since they added the Tombstone Song and Matpat iconic phrase 😂
He was supposed to be the security guard who dies at the beginning apparently 😂
@@Kjf365 oh yea i heard about that haha
Would have been truly epic. But hey, they might add him in the sequel😏
sounds corny tbh
@@Kjf365wasnt it mark?
goodbye matt pat. DX
we will miss you
14:54 come on mat. That is the largest leap in logic that I have ever heard on your channel. Its probably an unfinished springtrap animatronic for the next movie.
Honestly this theory addressed every lore complaint I had about the movie and gave an explanation I can totally go along with
I sincerely hope the next films give us more of Matthew Lillard as Afton... he was BEYOND incredible-- charming, nefarious, terrifying. He was perfect, and I'm dying to see the story they give him for the films.
Also, Matthew Lillard is a TREASURE. He deserves the world.
I agree!! He's wonderful!
I read somewhere that he made a contract for 3 movies, but it's not a serious source, so idk if it's true
@sexyschnidden9702 I believe you are correct--I believe he himself said that in a pre-strike interview! I'm just hoping he gets more screen time via back story or some more character development. He deserves it (because he's a phenomenal actor) but also I'd love to see William Afton more fleshed out (no pun intended! Lol)
@@sexyschnidden9702I believe it was 3 years he signed and not technically 3 movies but I imagine it won't take long for them to make the second movie, because they probably had most of it planned before this one came out, hence partially why the movie took so long to plan before they started filming (I even thought it was cancelled at one point) they filmed the movie from February to April this year according to the internet so likely they arent going to take too long to start the next one. Heck maybe they'll go Lord of The Rings and make FNAF 2-4 in the span of a year. Jk
@@ntrg3248 ah makes sense
It does sound like little brother could be the Puppet in this world. Nice catch on seeing Mike's Dad in the background.
I love matpat he's good at making fnaf theories he's one of the best theorists I have ever seen and the t shirts are so good
I actually burst out laughing when I saw the dream theory book in the movie and had to explain what was so funny to my parents. It was a great movie in my opinion
I DID TOO
So did I lol. My flatmate had no idea what i was grinning about when it came up.
I could not stop laughing at that book, my poor friends.
I appreciate your low bar for the sequel. I think a lot of the disappointment from other franchises is due to expectations being way too high.
or for it being extremely bad lol
Or the fact that this was just a terribly bad movie all together.
@@Woter_Xyou gotta be jokin me bro
@@ScaredPump you must be 12 years old. If you thought this movie was good. This was definitely not a good adaptation in Markiplier dodged a bullet not being in it. It would’ve tarnished his reputation.
@@Woter_X Lol it was funny and enjoyable to watch, it was good. It's not that bad and not that deep that it'll "tarnish" Markiplier's reputation
I can't believe he's gonna be leaving, but i understand it's for a good reason. Gonna start watching every video from most recent to first
Literally the day it came out every single discord server I’m in had about five links to a pirated version of the movie on it, it was wild
I do like how well the Five Nights at Freddy's movie went. Although I'm a little disappointed they didn't include the phone guy talking to him during every shift. But overall, it isn't terrible.
William kinda talked with him the first night though, does that mean that william=phone guy theory makes a comeback? ;)
@@PuppetzYTI really like how Steve Raglan said “see you on the flip side” like how phone guy finished the first night call in the game.
@@AdrianHernandez-rn1sq Exactly, atleast in the movie canon, Purple Guy is the Phone guy🤣🤣
William is the phone guy, matts most recent fnaf video proved the connections
@@pancake.r1346 yeah i noticed the connection when i saw it in the theater, so phone guy = purple guy atleast in the movie canon, don’t know if Scott intended it to be that way in the games tho, but maybe
Can we all be proud enough for MatPat being a new part of the FNAF lore and even in the movie itself....?
When I think about it I'm so glad he got this opportunity
My opinion is that Scott recognised how convoluted and messy the lore in the video game series was (after all he probably didn’t plan to expand it so much initially) so the movie series is a way to start again and have a more streamlined storyline (while still borrowing elements from the games).
There is not way I just watched a whole merch ad without even thinking about skipping it 🙏🏻🔥
People may be angry that the fnaf movie would be influencing the lore like when the books did, but I'm definitely on board with including it, I saw lots of lore potential in there
I think they'd be angry that Matthew's suggesting it, not the actual influencing. If they were doing the latter, that means they're angry at Scott and Co. and want to tell them how to write their fiction. Now that I think about it, that's about 85% of all fandoms these days.
If and when my fiction is published, nobody is telling me how and what to write, unless it's a good and legitimate criticism.
I think it might imply things that might be canon in the games but we should be careful about drawing anything too one-on-one. I think Vanessa's fear of her father and being his reluctant follower could possibly be parallels to Michael Afton working under William up until Sister Location ("I found her, she was right where you said she would be") BUT I don't think it necessarily means that game!Vanessa is William's daughter or an Afton in general (even tho AR and SB has some weird hints to that).
But the thing is it's not it has a seperate lore but maybe has like hints as to what Scott wants to do with the franchise
Yeah but it just complicates FNAF for any newcomers. Lore was already complex enough when you had to pay attention to easter eggs and scott's website.
DIDNT ASK, MY CONTENT = WAY BETTER 😂❤.
I really wasn't expecting MatPat to be in the movie because he genuinely sounded sad while he said he wasn't. I've learned my lesson this time 😭

@@catelynh1020 DIDNT ASK, MY CONTENT = WAY BETTER 😂❤.
@catelynh1020 Yes this is true!
Only played fnaf once. Like a few months ago. I kept dying couldnt figure it out. But, ive been watching your vodeos for years and love all their lore. Very happy they finally made a movie of it. Cant wait to see it.
Ironically, Matpat is the most notable man to have ever walked upon this stage.
the family swap makes even more sense if you think about it in a studio standpoint: having the protagonist to be the one who killed his own brother in a kinda brutal way probably wouldn't resonate well with general audiences, hence the need to twist the story a bit
In the games it was clearly shown to be the childish antics of a mean older brother messing with his little brother turning into an unexpected mistake that affected him the rest of his life. They could easily turn that into a redemption story for Mike over the course of multiple movies as he begins to forgive himself and attempt to right his and his fathers wrongs.
@@jaidenavery7118 i agree, but maybe its not the way the studio saw it
Personally I think it's just Scott once again retelling the same story in a different way. The studio would have know that the FNaF movie would never have substantial general appeal, and toning down the story to try and get a wider audience would simply alienate the fans. Leaving a movie with little general appeal and little fan appeal.
@@CaroLine-ij9zh that could be the case too
@@CaroLine-ij9zh Why wouldn't it be able to garner general appeal? It's an interesting story when done well. All it would require is for Scott to buckle down and make things more consistent for the flow if the trilogy.
I thought this movie was non canon, but I’m glad it adds lore
Sorta like the books there seperate cannons
No such thing as non-canon in FNAF
@@moonwatcher0497Nightmare Mangle
It is non canon. To the games
It's canon to its own universe. Do you not know what canon means?
The thing about him knowing the guy while I agree with the theory could also be explained simply in the act of the kidnapping. Even if he didn’t know them before, he could have learned who they were while scoping them out for the grab beforehand thus recognizing him. And coulda just asked the kid his whole name.
When I was watching the movie, I noticed the chalkboard, those keywords (including the heart as in the movie) the 1:35 am book as an animatronic that I knew, among other important details. My friends who were watching it with me, looked at me and I said "I have unleashed my inner Matpat."
I find it funny how the movie was supposedly "hated by everyone," but it became one of the most loved and successful horror/thriller movies of this decade.
its not a horror at all
@@sharlo3799op didn’t state that it’s entirely horror, that it’s horror/////thriller
its mixed, but the marketing was done amazingly well, it was pg-13 and it had a lot of fans to get a head start with so its not that much of a surprise it did well still cool though
@@sharlo3799true its far from actually being a horror film, still love it
I disagree, this is directly linked to your internet bubble. I've seen sooo many people criticizing the movie, even fans
Full confession: I watched this movie purely for the MatPat cameo.
Matt, you are a legend
I pretty quickly realized it was Mat at the diner, but I was kind of surprised to hear him say "...it's just a theory" in the scene. lol I was like "yep, that's definitely Matpat."
The fact it seemed they were mix-and-matching the Aftons and Emilys/Schmidts stuck out to me as well. Garrett was different: the car, kidnapping, not being in the pizzaria. Immediately screamed Charlotte to me, despite Mike being an Afton in the game.
That's exactly what I thought. I'm wondering if in the 3rd movie we'll find out Garrett never existed and Mike is a robot with fake memories 😂
Mike was the kid in the car! I doubt it, but would be a very surprising twist
Right
E
Since when was I proved Mike was an afton in the game?
"Father, its me Michael"?
Perhaps Michael is Henry's son??? It's never been proved
Another thing! People aren't talking about the fact that last we saw in the movie, William is still alive! Locked in the back room of the pizzeria, and in pizzeria sim he's got dialogue as if it's not just prerecorded bits from an old animatronic. Either remnant within the suit, or the soul inside golden freddy is keeping him alive. (I'm guessing both)
Yesterday i saw the movie in theatre, when i saw you acting as the server i told my dad about you and when you said "its just a theory" i almost had a heart attack right then and there.
Matpat and Game Theory were one of those Old CZcamsrs that made mine and many others childhoods. And I'm happy Matpat and GT survived the "Dark Ages" of CZcamsrs where Old CZcamsrs were just embroiled in controversies.
And got forgotten 4 the rest of the franchise
So... I got some bad news....
But I'll leave you to look into it and decide how much it matters to you

This movie showed me two things.
1. Video game movies CAN be good.
2. And they dont have to follow the game story exactly, as long as they respect it, and try to keep it as close as possible.
That's true! The same happened with the one piece adaptation
@@Slayer0fSun The one piece! The one piece is real!!!
@@Slayer0fSun nah one piece live action is garbage

@@SirZipper If YOU don't like something,it doesn't mean it's garbage. Everyone else likes it,but if you don't atleast don't push your opinion onto others. Be a better person
You have just GOT to do a video on some of the content of Ashur Gharavi! It is just absolutely packed with LORE!!!
Another thing to note, Afton knowing mike but not knowing Abby can be explained just by the fact that Abby was born probably sometime after the kidnappings and the closure of freddy's, meaning the spirits would have been the first time he heard about her
I think something people forget is FNAF lore was very much so still solidifying while this movie was in production, and it went through several directors and scripts to get where it was today. I’m just happy it even happened, it’s a dream come true 🥰
It actually makes sense that Afton learned about Abby from the animatronics - when he took Garret the Schmidts only had two sons, so he would've probably not known about her at the time.
Definitely saving up to get the FNAF varsity jacket 🔥🔥🔥
Good theory, I just have major doubts about the robot people angle you went for at the end.
The lore is so overwhelming and entertaining for the fans thank u matpat we’ve been waiting
E
Yessss
Vanessa at the end of the movie was left in a coma. I wonder if maybe she could be the equivalent to crying child in the fourth game. Being the daughter of the psycho William Afton, he probably kept tabs on her the same way. She really liked to reminiscence about her time at Freddy's as a kid. Similarly to how crying child watched the characters on TV and spent a lot of time at the restaurant and had plushies. We see an IV, pills, and flowers like you would in a hospital setting in the game. Maybe the trauma of her father being a serial killer bunny stuffing dead children in the animatronics would cause her to see the animatronics as nightmares in her coma. No one else has mentioned this theory yet. Everyone only talks about Garret becoming the puppet. Which in all fairness, I definitely agree with that part too.
I totally get that, but I heard somewhere (it WAS on the internet, so it could be wrong) that they were only going to make three movies after the first three games, so the nightmares wouldn’t show up.
@childmanmanboi4916 to be fair, they brought in Vanessa as a character all together and she shows up in security breach and the AR game..not 1 for 1 same Vanessa as the games but then again, none of the characters are exactly the same. Regardless, just like in the games, shes somewhat of a reluctant follower to William Afton. Shes a security guard (cop in movie) who is influenced by afton to some degree. In the game its the virus. In the movie, hes her father. By the end, she comes to the good side. There's some parallels there to an extent. They also refer to the books with some details such as the ella doll. And those books definitely came after the first 3 games. So idk. I feel like it's still plausible. It definitely makes things interesting since the fourth game is still quite debated even to this day.
@childmanmanboi4916 of course I don't think they'll make a whole movie about it. But a little nod to it in some way. The best way I think is with my theory above that makes somewhat sense
It was so awesome to see you in the movie Matt!
