What kind of theory topics are you guys interested in?
🕑 Added 2023-12-05 16:46:16 +0000 UTCI get theory requests ALL the time, but I figured I might as well leave a place for my top supporters to tell me what they're interested in.
Believe me I'm looking at 100 different topics but rarely will I actually find one that has a good theory for me to talk about. It honestly actually takes more time and work to find a good theory topic and idea than it does actually writing the theory. I've spent many hours watching shows or movies only to just realize nothing's here and give up.
I really like topics that are nostalgic, and probably engrained in our pop culture a bit. Not that I won't cover something obscure, in fact one future topic is something so weird and obscure that it's actually funny that I found something worth talking about.
The other big element I'm looking for is: I want the topic and idea to be kind of silly and unsuspecting. I think it's waaay more fun and satisfying to make a theory about a kids show that no one ever thought would have lore VS something like Five Nights at Freddy's that everyone already knows has a bunch of intentional lore inside of it, there would be no fun surprise to covering that. (unless I had a really unique unexpected take)
Even though this Pixar theory I'm covering is already so overdone and expected, the direction I take it in is so surprising and funny that it still scratches that itch I'm looking for.
A good theory topic will usually also have an obvious contradiction or inherent mystery fundamental to its story. The Magic School Bus immediately makes you wonder: "Why do they put these kids in danger? Do the parents know about what's going on? What's with those weird producer segments where they break the fourth wall?" and because these questions are so central to the show I'll usually have a lot to analyze and talk about.
And I'm not just limited to shows or movies or even just stuff targeted at kids. I've got some theories about commercial / infomercial lore coming up, I'd love to find a good video game or book that's super unsuspecting, anything that has lore!
For example I REALLY want to make a video on Club Penguin one day, and every couple of months I'll look into it again and find nothing to talk about. But that just feels like the perfect topic that checks all of my boxes, one day I'll figure out how to cover it!
So yeah, got any good ideas? For topics or for certain suspicious aspects of a topic? If you give me an idea and I use it (one that I haven't already been considering) then I'll be sure to credit you for pointing me in the right direction!

i've been playing Assassins Creed Black Flag a Lot and i've Noticed an Obvious yet Barely Hinted at Conspiracy thats Rarely Hinted at Throughout that Game that I'm Very interested in. The Game is Marketed as a Pirate Game in All the Teasers and Trailers but its Really Not and there is Much More to it then That. This is Actually Kind of like an Arg where you are Playing as a Game Dev Making a Game that will Become Assassins Creed Black Flag and Your Also Playing as the Main Character in the Game that Dev is Creating in the Simulation the Dev is Running on His Computer and you Flip Flop Back and Forth Between the Pirate Sections where you Play as the Pirate Edward Kenway and the Sections that Take Place in the Real World where your Playing as the Game Developer Making the Game. its in Those Real World Sections with you Playing as the Game Dev where if you Pay Close Attention to the Details in the Hints you can Find Randomly Strewn Across the Game Devs Office at the Abstergo Entertainment Tower you can Start to Piece Together the Lore Behind this Conspiracy. i still haven't Fully Beaten Assassins Creed Black Flag Yet but i've Found at Least 5 Things that Definitely Prove there is a Conspiracy Here. 1 the First Big Clue i saw the First Time i Played this Game was when i Found a Video File on a Computer in the Office in one of those Real World Sections wich Shows a Briefing of a Random Seemingly innocent Man Found Dead in a Mysterious Tunnel Beneath the Abstergo Entertainment Office you Work in who was Clearly Placed there for the Purpose of Gathering His DNA to Put into the Simulation to Find More Historical People to Add to the Game and this Man was Mysteriously Found Dead with His Arms and Hands Burnt to a Crisp but the Rest of His Body was unHarmed wich Makes No Sense. This Video Proves that Obviously this Man was Taken from Somewhere and incarcerated in this Tunnel Purposely to Gather His DNA and then Either He was Murdered or Killed Himself somehow. this Means they are Not just Making the Assassins Creed Game on a Normal Computer with just Editing Software and Assets and they Actually have some Extremely Advanced Ai Simulation Tech that is able to Read a Persons DNA and Find Everyone that Persons Related to as Far Back as Thousands of Years and then Put Certain Specifically Chosen Ancestors of theirs into the Simulation that is the Game Being Designed. 2 Later on i Found 2 Audio Clips from that Man who Died in the Tunnel in another of those Real World Sections where the Man Basically said He was Approached by someone and Offered a Chance to Join a Program to be Brought to this Place and have His DNA Collected for the Simulation and that He Now Regrets Coming to this Place and He Misses His Dad and Some Other People and He Dosen't know if He'll Make it. He Sounds Very Depressed Too. 3 i then Found Audio Clips in Game in Other Real World Sections where People who Work at the in Game Company Making this Game within a Game Talk about Their Program and Other People that were Kidnapped and Brought to this Company for DNA Analysis and Other Things and then i Saw a Few Audio Clips from a Woman who Sounds like she's Obviously a High Ranking Employee like a Ceo or Manager and She Gets a Message from some Guy from Another Company Telling Her Her Friend Told Him About Her Program and He wants in and wants to Offer Her Help and She gets Angry for some Reason and Rejects the Help and Claims She Had No idea that Her Friend Exposed the Program Behind Her Back and She says She Cannot have this Happen Too Much and She will Punish the Guy who did it. 4 then theres the 50 Random Sticky Notes you Find Around the Office in Different Real World Sections that just have Weird illogical Delusional Notes that Appear to be Written by Different Crazy People and Have Nothing to Do with Anything in the Game at All and are Very Confusing. 5 Also if you Pay Attention to How the interior of the Entire Abstergo Entertainment Building Looks in General Especially in the Main 1rst Floor Lobby it Looks Very Similar to the Office Building for Sarif industry's Headquarters in Another Game Called Deus Ex Human Revolution and that Game was All About Conspiracys and it Also Looks a Bit Similar to the Original Unatco Headquarters Building in the First Deus Ex Game Called Deus Ex the Conspiracy. in Deus Ex the Conspiracy the Unatco Headquarters was a Front for a Fema/UN/NSA like Organization Called Unatco who Claim to Hunt and Kill Terrorists but Actually Hunt and Kill innocent People who are just Defending the Middle Class Poor People and Doing whats Right for them. Later on in Deus Ex the Conspiracy its Revealed that the Entire Time there Has Been a Secret Area 51 Like Bunker underneath Unatco Headquarters where your Never Allowed to Go until the Point its Revealed even Though you can see the Door to it from the Outside Earlier in the Game and in this Bunker there was Strange Monsters who Kill and Eat Humans and Kidnapped People Being Held Hostage by Gov Agents and other Messed up Things. i Thing That is the Exact Same Thing Happening in the Abstergo Entertainment Tower in Assassins Creed Black Flag. at the Far End of the First Floor Lobby there are Even a Set of High Tech Metal Doors that Automatically Lock when you Come Near them and they Look a Lot like the Type of Doors that were on the Entrance to the Secret Bunker in Unacto Headquarters in Deus Ex. i Believe that the Secret Underground Tunnel or Cave that One Guy Died in is Behind One of Those Doors and May be Revealed at a Later Part in the Game i Haven't Played Yet and i Believe This Company is for Some Reason Purposely Kidnapping Random innocent People and Forcefully Stripping of their DNA and then Killing them All to Make an Advanced Pirate Game like the World has Literally Never Seen and its Very Bizarre.
