Did this man from the Curse Womb JJK episode kill Rika?
So basically in Jujutsu Kaisen 0 there's a girl named Rika, one of the main characters, and she is possibly cursed by Yuta after she dies due to being ran over by a truck, she was only a little girl at the time, and year later in Jujutsu Kaisen the anime, in the curse womb episodes, there is a dead body with an ID, he also had a criminal record, one of his crimes being running over a little girl.

Gaston from Beauty and the Beast was actually the good guy all along
Gaston was actually the good guy all along—at least compared to the Beast.
Let’s start with the facts: the Beast kidnaps Belle’s father for the crime of being lost and alone, then trades him for her. That’s not a fairy tale romance—it’s coercion with a nice library. And the castle? When Belle opens a forbidden door, she finds a room full of broken furniture—aka dead servants. Charming.
Belle’s “love” for the Beast? He locks her up, gives her books, and isolates her until she sings about how maybe he’s not so bad. That’s not romance—that’s Stockholm Syndrome. Even Chip—the lone child among adult furniture—raises eyebrows. That chip didn’t come from a pillow fight.
Now let’s talk about Gaston. Sure, he’s a loud, egg-guzzling asshole. But what was he really trying to do? Protect the town from a literal monster living in a cursed castle. He rallied the villagers, stormed the stronghold, and led from the front. Honestly, with that energy, I’m surprised he wasn’t at the Capitol on January 6—though to be fair, he had slightly better aim.
Was he vain? Absolutely.
A douche? Without question.
But he wasn’t wrong.
And in the end, he died a community organizer, while the Beast got the girl, the house, and the happy ending. Tell me who the real villain is again.

Maybe Gustavo Fring Real Motives is just like Stan Edgar
I have a theory about Gus Fring’s backstory, Gustavo Fring might be a Chilean former general who is trying to build something like Compound V or another dangerous bioweapon, funded by his drug business, Los Pollos Hermanos. Maybe that’s his true goal about why he was running and eliminating drugs cartel whoever people know what he was doing in chile.
This would explain why he makes so many deals with descendants of WWII German soldiers. Perhaps Gus Fring’s real motive is to reshape post-WWII society, which is why he always has connections to politicians. It also explains why he sees drugs merely as a money generator, not a passion.

Yes, they are brothers! - the coffin Andy and leyley
Theory about the coffin Andy and leyley
Yes, many think they are not brothers, but they are!
It doesn't make sense for two people to adopt children in the midst of financial crises, the family is going through financial problems, this started when the mother had her first child! Andrew at 15 years old, this was mentioned in chapter 3 at his grandmother's house.
It was probably an accident and most likely Ashley came that way too.
The mother probably has psychological problems such as psychopathy and narcissism, psychopathy because she does not show feelings in putting so much pressure on Andrew to take care of Leyley and narcissism because she manipulates Andrew to take care of Leyley for her, she outsources and delegates the work as a mother to Andrew.
Leyley inherited her mother's traits of psychopathy and narcissism while Andrew didn't, in Ashley's personality we see psychopathy and extreme manipulation!
She wants to control everything around her just like a narcissist does.
Ashley is also in need of attention because in the third chapter, in a memory, we see her saying that she got a job at a massage clinic (probably a whorehouse)
To get his mother's attention, but he is unsuccessful and dedicates 100% to Andrew.
That's why we see such great jealousy, she's afraid that Andrew will do like his parents, disappear and not give answers.
These nicknames Andy and Leyley were probably invented for their emotional protection, they created these nicknames to protect themselves emotionally.
In part of the second chapter (I think, I don't remember) they discover where their parents' house is located and decide to go after it, they break in and see death certificates with their names on it, the building where they lived catches fire and everyone dies, but so far no one knows that they ran away.
With this, it is possible to say that the parents sold their children to get money, because in the third chapter they discover the reason for their quarantine, a surgeon and another crazy person there, they manufacture toxiCola (I don't remember the name exactly)
The relationship between them is strange, as Andrew and Ashley have never seen healthy relationships of affection and they don't know what that is, they created this distortion and end up falling in love with each other, they are both safe havens for each other and have a great obsession with each other and Leyley ends up confusing obsession with love and Andrew follows whatever Ashley wants.

Invincible show Cecil Did Nothing Wrong
I've been seeing YouTube essays arguing about how wise Cecil's decisions are in season 3 and how he's written.
First, let's consider this one:
https://youtu.be/9QDsJHe2URk
Here, Failure On Command complains that Cecil is poorly written. Debbie hates him. Superheroes tell us that he's a hardass who callously throws lives away for no reason. But few if any of his actions actually reflect this. FOC thinks this is a case of "showing without telling."
I don't. It's not the writers trying to tell us Cecil is a mean old baby killer. It's the characters.
Cecil is a man responsible for taking 20-something natural disasters and honing them into weapons to use against other walking natural disasters. Said weapons do not like him because his job is to tell them not to go out, have fun, and get into trouble. People who are less likely to kill someone by sneezing in the wrong direction can responsibly have a lot more fun, but superheroes do not enjoy such liberties.
They also don't like Cecil because he's responsible for letting them die or even putting them down if that's what it takes to protect billions of more vulnerable people. Debbie hates him because she sees her sons as her innocent baby boys, whereas Cecil recognizes them for the sapient alien nukes they are.
All understandable as reasons not to be fond of Cecil. Doesn't make him wrong. And it's not supposed to. In spite of the apocalyptic stakes of his jobs, Cecil still shows remarkable compassion and is disgusted with having to sacrifice benevolent young people and work with murderers. There's no informed attribute that his decisions are bad or even morally ambiguous. Just the opinions of some shortsighted, headstrong, sentimental people.
And then there's this one: https://youtu.be/-cMhGLt3f7M
Here, NeedleMouse Productions argues that Cecil's decisions in season 3 episode 2 were extraordinarily stupid. NeedleMouse thinks Cecil should have never resorted to using the implant in Mark's head unless mark turned evil and went on a homicidal rampage, and that he should have simply thrown Sinclair and Darkwing under the bus when Mark had a tantrum about them. This is based on the premise that Mark is by far Cecil's greatest asset and all would be lost without him, so Cecil should keep him happy at all costs.
This is an extremely flawed premise for a handful of reasons.
First of all, Mark would have been lost in the previous episode, were it not for Sinclair and Darkwing.
Secondly, while Mark may be the most powerful body in Sinclair's stable, he would certainly be no match for a full invasion by even two or three older, more experienced Viltrumites. Earth would probably have been lost by now without Mark, but in the long run, he is not the best hope against a full invasion.
No, that would be Sinclair. If a dozen or so reanimen could take down a weaker version of Mark, it would probably take less than 10,000 to take on all 50 or so Viltrumites. As a fighter, Mark is just another stopgap until Sinclair can build enough reanimen. So was Darkwing, who with a broken leg was able to neutralize another Mark.
Thirdly, Mark fighting through the reanimen and storming off was definitely an extreme enough situation for Cecil to use the implant. Cecil didn't need a reason to believe Mark would go on a rampage and kill innocent people. Cecil had reason to believe Mark would find and kill Sinclair, who is a bigger asset than Mark.
Earth might not have survived Conquest without Mark, though it also might have. If Mark had been dead by the time Angstrom came back, the Invincible War probably wouldn't have happened, and thus, there would have been more reanimen to fight Conquest. It's much more likely that Earth wouldn't survive whatever comes after Conquest without a whole bunch of reanimen.
Moreover, Cecil is a lion tamer who needs to maintain dominance. He can't abide a precedent that his lion can just get what he wants by having a hissy fit.
As an aside, it was terrifyingly naive of Robot to remove the implant. That guy and the fact

What if Elisabet Sobeck wasn’t just a savior — but the mastermind behind humanity’s extinction narrative?
Fan theory based on in-game logs and decision structure — not canon, just analysis.
Elisabet Sobeck is often remembered as a hero — the one who saved the future through Project Zero Dawn.
And based on the situation, she likely had no better alternative.
The Faro Plague was unstoppable.
There was no way to shut it down, no military force to stop it, no technology fast enough to neutralize it.
Zero Dawn, as terrifying and hopeless as it was, may have been the only real option.
But that’s not the question I want to ask.
> My question is: who got to decide that this was the only option — and how?
Sobeck wasn’t just a scientist.
She designed the project, approved the structure, controlled the narrative, and decided whether the public would be told the truth.
Even within the Alpha team, there were hints of moral discomfort and uncertainty — but the system didn’t allow that to become meaningful resistance.
Not because she was evil, but because the situation was urgent… and she had control.
And that’s the point:
When one person holds total control, even for good reasons, can we still call that purely heroic?
The structure didn’t suppress dissent violently —
it simply didn’t have room for it.
Maybe that was necessary.
Maybe no other process would’ve worked.
But even then —
shouldn’t we ask what it means to entrust one person with the fate of the world, without question?
And if the hidden mastermind behind it all
was Elisabet Sobeck herself...
then maybe the questions I’ve raised aren’t that far off.
What do you think?

Jesse Ventura's most famous line in Predator (1987) is from his pro-wrestling days
Besides claiming that chewing tobacco makes you "a sexual tyrannasaurus", Blaine, played by Jesse Ventura, is most famous for being told that he's bleeding and claiming "I ain't got time to bleed".
It's worth noting that a lot of the script was being rewritten on set in the Mexican jungle, with Shane Black added to the cast so he could add jokes and badass one-liners between scenes: what if "Ain't got time to bleed" was one of those lines? Ventura was a pro wrestler from 1975-1986: during this era pro wrestlers had code phrases to prevent the audience from understanding that the fights were scripted. One such code phrase was "get color", meaning use a tiny hidden blade to cut yourself somewhere that bleeds a lot (typically the forehead) so it looks like your opponent gave you a serious injury.
Theory 1 is that Jesse was telling the Predator cast a story about a time when Jesse or another pro wrestler was scripted to "get color", but for some reason they couldn't find their blade, find an opportunity to hide to make the cut, or wouldn't have time for the blood to look impressive before the end of the match, and angrily whispered "I ain't got time to bleed". Years later, Jesse explained to his co-stars how he realized that outside of the context of behind-the-scenes pro wrestling, "I ain't got time to bleed" is an absurd thing to say. They all had a good laugh, Shane Black added it to the script, and the story never surfaced because it was taboo to acknowledge to the general public that pro wrestling is scripted, so the cast never shared the story in any interview or DVD commentary.
Option 2 is that it's something that Jesse Ventura heard in BUD/S training which was similarly added because Ventura and Black agreed that it was the perfect mix of badass and dumb for the film

Charlie is a Serial Killer (It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia)
Ladies and gentleman, there is a serial killer in Philadelphia, and it's not Dennis, it's not Gary, it's the gang's resident janitor, Charlie Kelly.
What are some evidence of this? Well, out of the Gang who has canonically killed people according to their conversations. For example, in "Dennis and Dee's mom is dead" Charlie admits that the reason his past friend isn't returning any calls is because he lit him on fire, and in "The Gang Gets New Wheels," Charlie beats up a kid for stealing his bike and Mac later states that Charlie unknowingly killed the kid.
Secondly, several psychologists in the past have suggested in the study of serial killers that one of the signs of a future life of violence is cruelty to animals during childhood. It just so happens that one of the running gags for Charlie is always having a rough relationship with animals, including him admitting that he and Mac used to harass animals for a school news project.
Finally, there's the episode "Frank Gets Back in Business," which revolves around Dennis finding the wallet of a recently deceased Brian LeFeve. What stands out about his death is how CHARLIE describes it. According to Charlie, he was busy cleaning the bathroom so he had Brian go out back to use the bathroom, where he was robbed and stabbed. Charlie is known for being laid back on cleaning when it's not Inspection Day and often encourages people to do dirty things because he thinks it's normal, so Charlie wouldn't have actually said this to Brian, nor would he know that a quote "crackhead with a knife" was trying to take Brian's wallet as the investigation had just started at that point and the cops wouldn't trust someone like Charlie with any conclusions.
However, this all brings up a point: Why hasn't Charlie been caught? He's clearly not the smartest in Philadelphia and clearly doesn't understand how law works. However, I predict that that's the answer: Charlie only knows what a serial killer is from Law & Order, and since none of Charlie's victims or MOs have a specific quality that stands out, neither the police or even Charlie is aware that he is in fact, the true serial killer of Philadelphia.

The truth behind Nana from the Madagascar movies
If you guys can remember, in the Madagascar movies, we see an old lady named Nana who usually beats up lions and hates them particularly Alex as an act of so called “self defense” because she thinks that the lions are attacking her. Actually I think I know the true reason why Nana does this. So many years prior to the first Madagascar movie, Nana‘s family were European maybe German colonists in Africa because according to the Madagascar Wiki she speaks ‘in a slight German accent’ when I was reading her wiki page’s trivia here:
https://madagascar.fandom.com/wiki/Nana/Trivia
Anyways, so you see, one day Nana when she was young along with her family were attacked by a pride of lions and she was the only sole survivor and after the incident Nana was hurt deeply mentally which explained why she thinks lions are attacking her and soon she wanted revenge. Nana then underwent training in various sorts of weaponry such as guns which explains why she can use a hunting rifle in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. We also see that Nana has enhanced strength meaning that she also underwent training to shape up and go beyond the strength of average lions. These all explain why she is so much stronger than a lion and her acts of ‘self defense’ is either a form of revenge or just PTSD or trauma.

My Timechange theory!
The Timechange Theory: A New Perspective on Time Travel
What if time travel doesn’t create paradoxes, but instead creates a self-sustaining loop? Here’s the idea:
Imagine you go back in time and draw a car on your 5-year-old self's head. In your timeline, you’ve always had that car on your head. But here’s the catch: you never remember drawing it because it’s always been part of your past. You were born with it, and it feels natural because you’ve never known a time without it.
In this Timechange Theory, you’re not changing the past. Instead, you’re setting events in motion that were always meant to happen. You draw the car, and that becomes part of your life from the moment you were born. Your 5-year-old self wouldn’t know you drew it; it’s just part of their reality.
This creates a self-consistent loop, where time travel doesn’t disrupt the timeline—it simply reinforces what was always meant to happen.
This shorter version captures the core of your idea while staying clear and focused!

so i have come up with a theory, metro man is a viltrumite in an alternate universe, he also has 3 different things he shares with viltrumites: 1 the most obvious, superpowers. 2 he is from another planet far away. 3 he has the same build. and some of you curious people might be saying: "but he doesent have a moustache!" in the last scenes you see metro man you see that he has a large beard, meaning that he still technically gets a beard/moustache in the movie, and he might aswell be a rebel, shaving off his old beard he should have had earth demolished by the time he realised his mission, and he escaped the other viltrumites (somehow)

YFM theory the dark secret behind this world
So in your favourite Martian the virtual YouTube band they’re most recent music video has been real girl. And it gives us a whole new lore context to this world so let’s begin. In this video it’s being told that live action humans exist but in the separate “real” universe compared to the cartoons. And benetar is in love with it except in this music video at the end we see this. The “real girl” came to life in the form of animation so what is this all telling us. Well the YFM characters live in an animated world that functions just like looney tunes would it’s even acknowledged in the video that they’re cartoons. And a live action human universe exists aswell and I believe that this cartoon workd was created by humans let me explain. So humans invented this world a sort of matrix put it that way. And the YFM characters and they’re generations have all lived in this matrix like world controlled by humans and cartoon characters and be added and deleted from this world. This would explain why there are different generations bc each one got deleted for not making enough music. It’s dark i know but what’s even stranger is that different version of puff puff come back in date myself well remember real girl. In it benetar has a machine that can bring any human into this world so thats how these different version of puff puff can exist. And finally In the music video the algorithm god it shows who is behind this world and control of these characters an algorithm who they all worship bc if they don’t they’ll get deleted and replaced with a new generation. This would also explain why axel falls in love with a gps he is trying not to get deleted like the last gen and that is the YFM conspiracy let me know your thoughts and ask any questions you’d like.

Disney's Wish is the Beggining and Aladdin is the End of a world spanning story.
In Wish we see King Magnifico has created a utopia where everything is made available and free to everyone who wants to join his kingdom. He creates his perfect kingdom because of his childhood trauma and the evil her experienced.
At the end of wish Magnifico is trapped in a magic mirror which show sup in Snow White and Asha becomes the very first fairy godmother, beings that have magic and grant wishes.
Examples being the 3 from Sleeping Beauty. The one from Cinderella. Blue Fairy from Pinoccio. And Ursulla from Ariel. And The witch from Brave and more.
This is an untold length of time of magic running wild with wishes and desires being granted willy nilly.
Somewhere along the line it became too much resulted in the end of the modern world. Sometimes after Princess and the Frog most likely.
This leads to magicly beings having to be enslaved and sealed away with strict rules, the genies.
Aladdin is post apocolyptic because of all of Genies references and in the game you see modern items in the back ground.
And the rules genies work under strike a balance between Magnificos extreme control and the Fair Godmothers and Witches granting them all over the place.
Perhaps the Genie himself is even Magnifico after millenia being trapped in one magical item after another.

There's a little-known theory that suggests that by using the Infinity Stones, Tony not only defeated Thanos... but his consciousness was absorbed by the Soul Stone, just like what happened to Gamora in Infinity War.
Remember the deleted scene where Tony talks to his adult daughter Morgan in an orange shot? That's the Soul World, and it could mean that your soul is trapped there, alive... and waiting.

Palm Springs Insane Multiverse Theory: The Cave Is a Timeline Creation Point, Dinosaurs Are Leaks, and Roy Could Trap Nyles Again!
Hi guys, I just rewatched Palm Springs and came up with a crazy theory-let me know how far off I am! So basically:
I think the cave is a "timeline creation point," like a quantum computer buried underground, constantly spitting out new parallel timelines for every possible choice. The glowing anomaly? It's leaking this timeline-creating energy, and when Nyles, Sarah, and Roy got stuck, they became part of this multiverse machine. Every decision they make in the loop-like Nyles' pranks or Sarah's escape attempts-creates a new universe, and their consciousness loops back each day, waking up in a fresh reality they've shaped.
The dinosaurs they see aren't just random-I think they're leaks from other timelines, like a universe where dinos survived, slipping through because the cave's energy is unstable. At the end, when Nyles doesn't know Roy, their consciousness escaped to a timeline where they never looped, leaving Roy stuck with a "clueless" Nyles. Here's the wild part: Roy could drag this new Nyles back into the cave, trapping him in a new loop and spawning another timeline where Nyles is stuck again!
What do you think? Am I way out there, or does this quantum cave idea click? 😭

that he's seen as the level-headed brains of the team is as big a liability as any.
Fourthly, if it weren't for the Viltrumite threat, there would be no need for Mark. Mark is overkill for any other threat Earth has faced. Until Viltrumites came along, humanity seems to have gotten along pretty swell without the need for any champion more formidable than the Immortal. More than anything else, what makes Mark inexpendable isn't his own power. It's his usefulness as an experimental subject. Cecil needs a way to test methods of killing Viltrumites. On that note, Cecil now has Oliver for that, making Mark even more expendable.
Finally, if there's one big mistake Cecil has made, it's neglecting to make any attempt to recruit Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu was easily able to pin down Mark and take a bite out of him. Unlike Sinclair or Doc Seismic, Liu is a relatively stable businessman, which means he has a price, as well as plenty of investments on Earth he would want to protect.
In Cecil's defense, he might not have known how powerful Liu was before he attacked Mark, and now thinks Liu is dead. But if he'd just thrown a few teleportations' worth of money at the bastard, he probably could have taken on Conquest himself.

Jujutsu Kaisen What if Sukuna Exists Because of Megumi? (A Theory on Gege Akutami’s Writing Choices)
(Please remember that this is my first Reddit post and my first jjk fan theory that I post online. I also made chatgpt do it since my explanations where wayyy too long)
I've been reflecting on Jujutsu Kaisen's character dynamics and narrative choices, and a theory has emerged that I can't shake. It seems that:
> Sukuna's existence is a manifestation of Gege Akutami's admiration for Megumi,
while Yuji serves as a vessel for Akutami's creative frustrations.
Let's dive into this:
---
🔹 Megumi: The Intended Protagonist
Gege Akutami initially envisioned Megumi Fushiguro as the main character of Jujutsu Kaisen. This plan shifted, introducing Yuji as the protagonist, but Megumi's centrality remains evident. Akutami has expressed that Megumi's character arc was meticulously planned from the outset, even before Yuji's fate was determined.
---
🔹 Yuji: The "Bland" Hero
Akutami has described Yuji Itadori as a "straightforward" and "flexible" character, fitting neatly into shonen archetypes. However, this very adaptability can render him "bland," lacking the complexity that drives deeper narratives.
This perspective might explain why Yuji often feels like a narrative tool rather than a deeply explored character. His journey is marked by loss and suffering, with limited personal growth or resolution.
---
🔹 Sukuna: A Reflection of Megumi's Significance
Sukuna's intense interest in Megumi isn't coincidental. In an interview, Akutami hinted at Sukuna's plans involving Megumi, suggesting that with Megumi, Sukuna could "create a world as he wants it to be." This connection underscores Megumi's importance and possibly Akutami's fascination with his character.
---
🔹 Yuji's Losses: A Narrative of Frustration?
Yuji's closest allies—Junpei, Nanami, Nobara, and Gojo—face tragic ends. These losses could symbolize Akutami's commentary on the harsh realities of a hero's journey or reflect his challenges in crafting Yuji's narrative. The consistent pattern of loss surrounding Yuji might be a deliberate choice to emphasize his role as a vessel for exploring darker themes.
---
In Summary:
Megumi was the original focal point, with a well-defined arc.
Yuji serves as a flexible, albeit "bland," protagonist, possibly reflecting Akutami's creative challenges.
Sukuna's deep connection to Megumi highlights the latter's significance and possibly Akutami's admiration.
This interpretation offers a lens through which to view the series' character dynamics and narrative choices. What are your thoughts on this perspective?

North of North: Siaja is mentally unstable or an alcoholic
So I'm watching a new show on Netflix called North of North. In it Siaja is portrayed as the daughter of a recovering alcoholic and I'm only on two episodes, but it is very good. She blows up her life after a near death experience this is not to say she's not justified in leaving her husband but she makes some very rash decisions in the first episode alone that show she's at least some what unstable.
It all starts when she's not satisfied with her life wants to get a job but the way she brings it up it just feels like she's never said anything about how she feels to anyone before. Now her husband is an idiot but again the show is shown from her perspective.
She meets a handsome older man at first it makes it look like they will hook up. Then he turns out to be her Dad that she's never met before. She also shows her middle fingers to the entire town and breaks up with her longtime partner and would have hooked up with a guy she barely knew if she hadn't found out he was her Dad in mere moments.
Now in the episodes I've watched she isn't seen drinking so it's possible she developed a disorder due to events from when her mom was drinking. I first started thinking she might be an alcoholic because she fell off the boat and yes, her partner did accidentally knock her off, but she sees a mythological figure in the water and then sees it again when she throws up. This plus her rash decision making makes me think she is a alcoholic.
Now again she's not shown drinking that doesn't mean she's not though as she could drink off screen or since it's her point of view she might be intentionally ignoring or downplaying her bad habits. Besides the actress's performance reminds me of a couple drunks and alcoholics I've met. By that I mean how in each episode she does something reckless and is hostile towards a lot of people.
I just feel like if she's not a alcoholic she's at the least got a persecution complex.

Zero day theory: Bambi is a rotating identity-and George Mullen is the anchor in a time loop.
I kept thinking Zero Day might involve time travel somehow—like, Alex and Lily seemed like the same person, and Sheila and Valerie felt interchangeable. It didn’t feel random. It felt like something deeper.
So I went to ChatGPT, told it what I was thinking, and started feeding in cipher details from the show. I’m not totally sure if this theory is correct, or even what I’ve fully uncovered—but what ChatGPT came back with kind of blew my mind.
What follows below is what ChatGPT helped me piece together:
⸻
SPOILERS Zero Day Theory: Bambi Is a Rotating Identity—And George Mullen Is the Anchor in a Time Loop
⸻
The Cipher Isn’t Just For Secrecy—It Tracks Fate
In Zero Day, there’s a rotating cipher system:
• Code names (like “Bambi,” “Alex,” “Emmet Kelly”) shift daily.
• A scrambled alphabet also rotates forward each day.
• This structure makes each day its own version of reality.
And the codename “Bambi”? It’s not tied to one person.
Bambi is whoever dies that day.
⸻
Evidence From the Show:
• Day 2: The ciphered message “IWWI” decodes to “ANNA”
→ Anna dies on Zero Day → Bambi = Anna.
• Day 5: Cipher rotation makes Bambi = Roger
→ Roger dies on Day 21.
• Day 4: Bambi = Alex
Each day, the cipher rotates, and Bambi becomes someone new.
Every day ends with that person dying.
⸻
The Family Timeline Is Being Rewritten
Here’s where things get even more interesting:
• George Mullen is married to Sheila.
• They had two children: Nick (who died before the events of the show) and Alex.
• George also had an affair with Valerie, and they had Lily.
When cipher days are mapped:
• Some days, Alex = Lily
• Some days, Sheila = Valerie
The cipher isn’t just disguising identities—it’s remixing relationships and family structure across timelines.
⸻
George Mullen Is the Anchor
George has visions of things that haven’t happened yet.
He recognizes shifts before anyone else.
That’s because he’s the only one who remembers across cipher rotations—across timelines.
He’s seen Bambi die again and again:
• Anna
• Roger
• Possibly Lily or Alex
• Originally? Maybe even Nick
And every time, he hears:
“Who killed Bambi?”
Not because he’s solving a mystery.
Because he’s reliving the loss—over and over.
⸻
What Zero Day Is Really About
Not just cyberattacks or political manipulation.
It’s about:
• A father stuck in a recursive loop of loss.
• A cipher system that assigns death like a rotating curse.
• A man who’s trying to save his family—but never in time.
The cipher isn’t just about hiding secrets.
It’s about who must die to keep the loop going.
⸻
TL;DR:
• Zero Day uses a rotating cipher where “Bambi” = the person fated to die that day.
• Day 2: Bambi = Anna → she dies.
• Day 5: Bambi = Roger → he dies on Day 21.
• Cipher also rotates Alex ↔ Lily and Sheila ↔ Valerie depending on the day.
• George Mullen is the only one who remembers the changes—he’s the anchor.
• The show isn’t asking “Who killed Bambi?”
It’s asking: “Can Bambi ever survive?”
⸻
Curious what others think. Is this time travel? Timeline recursion? Emotional metaphor?
Whatever it is—it’s brilliant.

All the characters in DI4RIES are aliens
From what I've noticed the characters in DI4RIES seem to repeatedly behave like aliens and that they are in the same universe as Jurassic Park

Old marvel or current marvel?
I know this is uncool to post here on a fan theories but I had nowhere else to post to get extra opinions, anyway I'm wondering if there are any more people agreeing that the old marvel Is better than the current one, I liked when original six were together tbh, the cgi was more realistic (MY OPINION), new movies such as Thor love and thunder and captain America in sam Wilson version just shows how marvel studios have changed over the years, I hope avengers doomsday will be better. again what do you think? :)

Metro-man (megamind) is a Viltrumite (invincible)
so i have come up with a theory, metro man is a viltrumite, he also has 3 different things he shares with viltrumites: 1 the most obvious, superpowers. 2 he is from another planet far away. 3 he has the same build. and some of you curious people might be saying: "but he doesent have a moustache!" in the last scenes you see metro man you see that he has a large beard, meaning that he still technically gets a beard/moustache in the movie, and he might aswell be a rebel, shaving off his old beard he should have had earth demolished by the time he realised his mission, and he escaped the other viltrumites (somehow)

A psychological breakdown of Patrick Bateman using the Dark Triad framework – would love feedback on my second video.
Just finished my second faceless YouTube video for a series called The Dark Triad, where I break down characters through the lens of psychology (specifically narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism).
Episode 2 dives into Patrick Bateman — not just as a killer, but as a psychological symbol. It’s 7 minutes, high-quality editing, cinematic vibes, and completely original narration. I’d love feedback and honest thoughts!

Let me know what you think or who you’d want to see covered in future episodes.

Did Tony Stark really die because of the snap?
I know i'm too late to be theorizing this since Infinity war came out almost five years ago, but I've been thinking that the snap didn't directly kill or harm Tony stark badly, because when the avengers went back in time to 2012, Scott Lang pulled some kind of important part of the core of Tony stark's heart, and Tony reacted to this by getting a shock or a stroke, but thor helps Tony by giving it power again by his hammer, it could maybe be that Tony stark's heart was pretty weak still. and probably couldn't handle much. Especially the snap. what do you think??

Do you think the Terminator and Alien universes could logically be part of the same timeline or universe?
I've been thinking lately about whether the Terminator and Alien (Xenomorph) universes could exist within the same timeline or multiverse. Both involve powerful corporations, advanced AI, and a generally bleak vision of the future. Weyland-Yutani in Alien and Skynet in Terminator feel like they could be competing forces or even part of a larger shared universe.
Could Skynet be the reason humanity is weakened enough for Xenomorphs to become a major threat? Or maybe Weyland-Yutani ends up developing AI tech that becomes Skynet?
Curious if anyone else has thought about this or seen any Easter eggs/connections between the two. Would love to hear your thoughts or even wild theories!
