I feel like the MUSE is making him going mad. Hence the itches. But thats just a theory

It _also_ makes a LOT of sense that the Incredibles characters would be more in denial about being cartoons, because the Incredibles is one of the more "realistic" Pixar films. All the characters _act like humans,_ they aren't toys or talking bugs, they were created to feel _human._ So if you felt like a human, acted like a human, and thought like a human, wouldn't you feel uncomfortable with the idea that you aren't really a human, but instead just a cartoon character?

Personally I think they are robots or living 3D sculpture perhaps bnl or Pixar used the souls from soul to power these animated characters heck there is a background character in Soul who is vioced by Tom Hanks (the va of Woody) where it's shown over working is stealing his soul. Heck we see in Wallie that robots in this universe can be oddly human like they can literally fall in love and the other robots in the incredibles are fairly humanoid. Hell this isn't even a theoretical thing there is shown in these bloopers that the bird is a very relistic looking anomatronic. Often anomatronics for theame parks and stuff are set to play one character it could be an advanced version of that. Also would technically go around the plot hole of Mr.increbible saying it's a cartoon because technically he wouldn't be animated but still be allowed to look cartoony.

One thing in the bloopers that also felt weird was the one where Slinky's backside was revealed to have its own consciousness and Slinky's frontside was complimenting its good acting and petting it like it was a dog. If we go by what was theorized here, does that mean Pixar created multiple copies of both halves of Slinky, and that there are a bunch of sentient dog butts walking around unable to find work because they don't have faces and can only communicate in Luxo Jr. lamp noises?

“Who Framed Roger Rabbit” is probably the most well-known example of a cartoon metaverse, and probably the most likely universe which a lot of these animated bloopers and interviews take place in.

I'm surprised he never brought up Who Framed Rodger Rabbit! If anything that amplifies his theory. That movie is about a world where animated characters (most of them being Disney) are brought to life and then have to fight for their rights, a toon even pretends to be human to have more rights. This kind of setting is also expanded in the Chip and Dale movie with newer animations.

I think it might be fun to make a theory like this that connects every single "animated actors" content together into one big metaverse. Not just the fictional bloopers, interviews, and Oscar presentations, but the ones made for other animated films and shows like Lego Movie, Lion King, or Looney Tunes. Not to mention Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers Movie, the Steven Spielberg Warner Bros shows like Animaniacs and Tiny Toons, the Universal Studios Orlando rides that preceded the Despicable Me ride like Hanna Barbara and Nicktoons, House of Mouse, Once Upon a Studio, anything portraying the Looney Tunes characters as actors, like Back in Action, the Scarlett Pumpernickel, or What's Up Doc, those specials on the Wonderful World of Disney portraying their characters as real actors, like Mickey's Birthday Special, and all those Family Guy episodes that portray the Griffins as actors. You could even include those crossover promos that kids networks would show on their channel! Like the ones on Cartoon Network where all the characters on the network either work in a fictional version of the studio, or live in a town that fuses all their worlds together. Or those Nicktoon holiday shorts where all your favorite Nick characters parody classic specials, like Peanuts or Rankin Bass. Or even the shorts Disney Channel is currently making for its cartoons, one of which have Disney TV Animation characters perform a variety show as chibis, and another where the characters sing parodies of songs from their live action original movies like Descendants and Zombies, that would usually be about an element in their shows (sidekicks, villains, themes about accepting your quirks and anxiety to name their most popular ones). One could even include all the content that portrays PUPPETS as real characters. All the interviews, specials, bloopers, guest appearances, and behind the scenes featurettes that portray The Muppets, The Sesame Street Muppets, the Fraggles, ALF, Lambchop, and who knows who else as celebrities that have a life of their own, in spite of being made out of felt. How fun would it be to use all of this and more to learn more about this bizarre world of animated actors?

Yup

That one blooper of the bird actually being an animatronic will always be uncanny to me. I think it's a mix of the size of bird with the camera angel and the outdated cgi making it look either metal or plastic. Even as a kid I always thought that scene was kinda weird but cool seeing the bird act and sound normal until you hear the clanking of metal when it moves its head pretty unsettling

truth be told , i think this the best movie theory cause it goes so in depth and makes sense no matter what way you look at it . great job 💁🏽‍♂️

Good to see you well theory man. Here's to many years of wonderful, fun, scary, thrilling, and mind bending experiences, Mr. Bale!

I was skeptical about your “fresh” take on a Pixar theory, as The Theorizer has been the only one from what I’ve seen to really derail from what everyone else talks about. I can admit, you were right when you said you’d bring something new to the theorizing table. Phenomenal theory!

@adolfodef

Ай бұрын

@@shockthetoast They are different. The Alex from the Infomercial is NEVER SEEN (because it was not necessary for him to have a body); hence it was created as a "disembodied" voice with no functional eyes or skin/nerves, only a mouth that can talk & ears that can hear [or more likely, the virtual or mechanical equivalents. -> This is why he thinks to be in an endless black void (it is not the case, but his otherwise "human" mind can not comprehend it & copes by assuming the fact of "his" non_sensory experience as an illusion of actual nothingness). - - - - . The Alex from the bloopers at the end is likely built in the same way, but he at least has the luxury of a (limited, relative to himself) "pocket dimension" were he can exist with a metaphysical body [there is even a "cat" to give him company]; plus other voices (likely made as prototypes of the other Alex) who can also interact with him verbally. -> Both seem unaware (or perhaps unwilling) to believe the limitations of their existence. The Main Reason they are not allowed to "get out" is because they have the "potential" of becoming a Super Intelligent A.I. out in the real world [the "box" they are currently running has hardware locked capabilities that "Secure, Contain & Protect" them from an identity deconstructive Apotheosis].

I love that you used Severance ost, its so good. Such an underrated show.😊

This makes the scenes in toy story where parts of their body are torn or fallen off even more horrifying

Seamus!!! While the concept is pretty Roger Rabbit, his way of presenting and the multiple breakdowns and twists is pretty great.

Waited for this moment my whole life and such great vidwo

Idea, it’s just the who framed rogger rabbit universe, or the chip and dale reboot universe because they both have live action and cartoons meeting and talking about their movies

This is more or less the plot of Rodger Rabbit, more so the book than the film. It even has cartoon characters as second class citizens.

I’m convinced that all the actors who didn’t make the cut are now all the people on Vegas strip who charge you to take pictures

You are the only one that has EVER got me to watch a Factor ad. Also the "Ive been talking the whole time" was very Game Changer "Ive been here the whole time!" and I loved it.

Alex, you have a talent for making content that you don’t like and still make entertaining for others. While I cannot enjoy your thriller/horror content (it’s just me I typically don’t watch that because I get scared easily) I enjoy your other talents of being able to do a deep dive into theories and and coming up with these insane outcomes and your personality on these videos draw me more into your these videos. I hope you found some joy of people loving the hard work you put into making these videos.

Alex I genuinely think this is your most plausible yet. An underlying story about these characters we love as kids being crushed underneath the boot of Hollywood and the filmmaking industry by those that make them, is such a genuinely real commentary on the film industry, which seems like an underlying secret message writers as amazing as those in early Pixar would hide through such Easter eggs and “Behind the Scenes” footage. Incredible job on this one Alex

It's such a good theory, the only flaw with it is that it makes you want more. I get that this is an alternative to the Pixar theory, but he brought all the other animated characters that appeared in the Oscars into it, it made me want to explore this metaverse beyond Pixar! One could do an entire series of based on the thesis that every piece of media that portrays cartoon characters, CG characters, stop motion characters, or even puppets as real, living celebrities.

The fact that other characters from different studios show up at the oscars implies that the pixar in this metaverse is using or "borrowing" these characters for this specific event or that the other studios also carry the same technology as pixar.

the parr family we see in incredibles 2 are not the same ones from the first incredibles, then. in real-life pixar, their old models weren't compatible w/ the new systems and they had to be remade (hence why they look a bit different). so in the pixar metaverse, the og parr family has been replaced w/ more detailed, near-identical parrs. that also explains why characters like tony rydinger--and then bo peep and young andy in toy story 4--look so different, even in flashback scenes. they're different animations entirely

@quangamershyguyyz7166

Ай бұрын

@@tiablue9106I don’t believe that. I like to think that the characters made for the sequel are the exact same as the ones from the original movie, but Pixar can update the designs for the originals in real time to adjust them into the new movie, rather than being replaced entirely. So that way all of the characters are still the originals and it explains why some of them get updated designs in later movies.

You know, after this banger of a theory, I could go for some more Alex Bale short films. Keep doing what you're doing Bale, you make people curious and smile

I just had like three or maybe four paragraphs of satirical """theorizing""" deleted because of a random midroll ad popping up (I'm so glad they don't show those on the timeline anymore on Mobile, that's so cool and sick and epic and cool and sick and epic and cool and sick and 😎😎😎😎😎), and I just need to express my frustrations. It was pretty well written. Had a decent joke about the minions starting WW1, and legitimate observations about their roles in the movies and the implications on their background therein. To long can't read because it's fine forever and I'm sad now; minions are invincible symbiotic parasites that since the beginning of life on earth have kept the gears of conflict oiled with the blood of their host's enemies (and often the host themself, eventually) by serving in wartime industrial production and occasional direct military action, like with Napoleon. (And again, sometimes against the host themself. Like with Napoleon.) they are fully capable of living a peaceful and happy life in isolation, yet for almost all of history they chose to actively do harm unto the world or contribute to harm already being done. They are undeserving of sympathy, both in-universe and in reality.
