Another Grease theory argues that every time there is a song and dance number and something transitions that's actually a sign of the Grease characters taking drugs. The biggest clue in for this scene has to be the end where they depart in a flying car. One of the final theories discussed on this podcast is the cold hard truth about the characters in Grease...they're all a$$h*les. Why is everybody putting up with their cr*p in the movie and what does this actually mean?   Subscribe to us on iTune and get new shows instantly & check out our website https://www.fantheoriespodcast.com for all of our other fan theories and episodes. === Contribute Your Fan Theories === Join  Fans of Abstract Nonsense on Facebook to share your Fan Theories, or email any Fan Theories you have to our email yourtheories@fantheoriespodcast.com and we’ll read them out on the show.

    We take a look at the Disney favourite Mulan and the fan theory: ‘Mushu The Murderer’. That fan theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories and Alternate Readings Podcast. Mulan Fan Theory 1 - The War is a False Flag [2:23] This Mulan Theory argues that with dragons being real just trying to even really need that strong of an army to repel Hun invasion? Could this invasion really be a false flag designed to exterminate growing numbers of the men within China, so as to retain control of the population? Mulan Fan Theory 2 - Mulan is Trans/LeeShung is Gay [13:04] In a movie that plays loose with gender this Mulan Theory asks the obvious questions: is Mulan really a story about a transgender person, is Mulan's love interest actually gay, and is Amanda Bynes actually a man in She's the Man? All these questions and more answered in this Mulan theory. Mulan Fan Theory 3 - Mushu tries to kill Mulan to restore honor [18:50] This Mulan theory takes a bit of a dark turn investigating whether or not Mushu’s role in Mulan was not to protect Mulan but to actually kill her, in order to restore order to Mulan's family. Mulan Fan Theory 4 - Mulan is stone dragon [21:00] In Mulan Mulan's ancestors try to Awaken the great stone Dragon but nothing happens.

    We take a look at the sci-fi movie hit Blade Runner 2049 and the Blade Runner 2049 theory: ‘Is Rachael a Human or a Replicant?’. That Blade Runner 2049 theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories and Alternate Readings Podcast. Blade Runner Theories - No. 1 [2:45] Memory girl tricked the replicants into thinking she's the chosen one This Blade Runner 2049 theory takes a very alternative view of the new Blade Runner movie, arguing that the Memory Girl tricks the replicants into thinking she is actually the chosen one. Is the Memory Girl the replicant messiah or should this Blade Runner 2049 theory be retired early? Blade Runner Theories - No. 2 [10:30] Is Rachael Human? This Blade Runner 2049 theory plays on one of the most famous theories from the original Blade Runner movie, the theory that Deckard is a replicant. This Bladerunner 2049 Theory turns that theory around posing the theory that instead of a human being a replicant...what if a replicant was actually a human? This Bladerunner 2049 argues that Rachael might actually be human and that the Voight Kampff test performed in the first Bladerunner film may not have been as effective as Deckard believes it is. Blade Runner Theories - No. 3 [19:28] Is Deckard a Replicant? As mentioned in the last Theory, this Bladerunner theory is probably the oldest and most well-known one. There's no need to introduce this theory, as everyone knows the Bladerunner theory that Deckard is actually a replicant. Blade Runner Theories - No. 4 [25:07] Is Blade Runner pro-Trump? Is Blade Runner 2049 secretly a subversive message designed to inspire people to want to build a giant wall on the Mexican border? This Bladerunner theory argues that Bladerunner 2049 is actually a secret pro-Trump film, designed to show the virtues of building a wall. Is this true or false?

It's not just you, the overall feel of Star Trek Discovery seems to echo the atmosphere, setting and design of one of the most popular Western Sci-Fi RPGs in the most recent decade, Mass Effect. Could Star Wars Discovery be an artistic sequel to the Mass Effect video game franchise? And is Star Trek Discovery the Mass Effect TV show that fans have always wanted? Star Trek Discovery Theory No. 2 [13:41] Commander Michael is Tuvok's grandmother A bit of a wacky fan theory about Star Trek Discovery one of abstract nonsense fans rights in with the theory that Star Trek Discovery is Commander Michael might actually be to box grandmother what do you think Star Trek Discovery Theory No. 3 [18:21] Star Trek Discovery is set in an alternate Mirror Universe Somethings just not right about Star Trek Discovery. Sure it looks like Star Trek and the showrunners has said it is in the Prime universe, but the way Starfleet is behaving just doesn't feel right...what if its actually in an alternate universe? This Star Trek Discovery Theory argues that the new Star Trek Discovery is set in an alternate mirror Universe which is a combination of the Prime Universe and the Mirror universe. Star Trek Discovery Theory No. 4 [27:49] Commander Michael is a giant racist It's very interesting that Star Trek Discovery has set up its main character to be incredibly racist.

    In this podcast, we take a look at the Disney cartoon and Pocahontas fan theory: ‘Who is the real villain in Pocahontas?’. That Pocahontas theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories and Alternate Readings Podcast. What's in a show, as explained by Joe Pocahontas  Pocahontas is a movie made by Disney about Native Americans and White settlers meeting each other for the first time and getting into what normally happens when two cultures get together... a giant war. Pocahontas our hero, falls in love with the blandest character in existence with the blandest of all names John Smith. What fan theories exist for this story about Native American in white reconciliation and war? Listen to this episode of Abstract Nonsense to find out.In today's show...Pocahontas Theory [8:30] - Higgins is master manipulator This theory describes a character who most people write off in Pocahontas as a master manipulator. This Pocahontas theory argues that Higgins is one of the most important characters in yet as he may actually be pulling the strings between the Indians and the English. This Theory holds that without Higgins there would have been no real conflict between the English and Indians. The only issue with this Pocahontas Theory is that we don't know why he just wants to be the Puppet Master. Perhaps its a truth only he knows. Pocahontas Theory [12:28] -The chief killed the racoon's family This Pocahontas Theory explains why Pocahontas is really good friends with a racoon. The Indian chief wears a prized racoon pelt and this Pocahontas theory holds that that racoon that was skinned for that pelt may have been the parents of Pocahontas's racoon friend.   Pocahontas Theory [14:50] - Pocahontas is crazy This Pocahontas Theory tries to explain why Pocahontas has a very magical life. The first piece of damning evidence is the fact that she can talk to a tree and that tree talks back to her. Could she be in connection with the mother nature? Or is she just crazy? This Pocahontas theory argues the latter. Pocahontas Theory [21:10] - Pocahontas is set in the Fallout universe This Pocahontas Theory argues that Pocahontas may take place in the Fallout universe and that what we see isn't the past but a glimpse into the future. Pocahontas Theory [23:27] - Pocahontas is about Native American supremacy This last Pocahontas theory is a bit of a doozy. This Pocahontas Theory argues that Pocahontas is actually a propaganda film designed to inspire Native Americans to rise up and push out white Invaders in the modern age.   Subscribe to us on iTunes and get new shows instantly& check out our website https://www.fantheoriespodcast.comfor all of our other fan theories and episodes. === Contribute Your Fan Theories === Join Fans of Abstract Nonsense on Facebook to share your Fan Theories, or email any Fan Theories you have to our email yourtheories@fantheoriespodcast.com and we’ll read them out on the show.

That Dark Knight theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories Podcast. What is this show? - As Explained By Joe The Dark Knight Rises What is the Dark Knight Rises? Well it's about Batman, who has stopped being Batman, its been 8 years and Batman is old and he doesn’t feel like being Batman anymore. Bane is a bad guy who wants to come and invade Gotham with his army of slaves because he was born in the darkness. Bane plans to destroy Gotham city in order to fulfil the goal of the League of Shadows, and only Batman, who was kind of retired, can stop him. The Dark Knight Rises was not as good as the Dark Knight, but still a fun movie to watch and worth checking out if you are bored and need to kill 2.5 hours. Dark Knight Rises Theories 1st Dark Knight Rises Theory [4:34] Gotham police are on Banes payroll There appears to be no crime Cops should be incredibly vigilant due to lack of criminals The ability for Bane to sneak his army into the sewer shows either laziness or corruption in the police The Gotham Police are used to being bribed by criminals, so perhaps Bane used Taggarts money to bribe many Gotham’s police   2nd Dark Knight Rises Theory [13:13] The Dark Knight Rises draws heavy inspiration from the French Revolution The freeing of the prisoners of Blackgate prison mirrors the storming of the Bastille The comparison between the struggling rich and poor mirrors that of the social classes prior to the French Revolution Bane the leader of the people is a fantastic orator, just like Maximilien Robespierre The kangaroo courts for the wealthy in the Dark Knight Rises is exactly like the courts that sentenced rich people to the Guillotine during the French Revolution   3rd Dark Knight Rises Theory [20:20] Alfred doesn’t mean batman at the end of the movie, it's wish fulfilment It’s unlikely batman would have survived the bomb Alfred never told anyone where he went for lunch during his holiday It would require Batman visiting this cafe at least 7 times in order to ensure he doesn’t miss Alfred one day when he is on holidays   4th Dark Knight Rises Theory [25:12] What if Alfred has a sinister plot to kill the Waynes, to inherit their fortune From a Fan: Howie - Sent to yourtheories@fantheoriespodcast.com Alfred arranges for Bruce’s parents to be murdered Alfred grooms Bruce Alfred then tries to get Bruce killed, so that he can inherit his fortune   5th Dark Knight Rises Theory [27:55] Bane’s plan makes no sense, he doesn’t understand how markets work Bane could have committed fraud Bane could have hacked Bruce Wayne’s account in the stock exchange Bane could have bought future options that expired at Midnight, leaving Batman broke However, Bane could have done none of this if Future options expire at 4pm (as they almost always do) and the trade is complete after the market closed He also couldn’t have made trades after the Market has closed 6th Dark Knight Rises Theory [34:50] Why does Bane wear the mask?

    We take a look at the cult favourite Space Jam and the fan theory: ‘In Space Jam, Bill Murray Shatters the Multiverse’. That Space Jam fan theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories and Alternate Readings Podcast. Listen to this episode and expand your mind! === What is the Show? As explained by Joe === A massive movie, one of the biggest movies ever covered on the show, that’s right it’s Space Jam baby! Are you ready for this? (Cue music). Space Jam is an enormous film from your childhood, it was so big that they got Michael Jordan (someone who has not acted in another film since)...that’s how big this film is. What’s all the focus on size for? I hear you ask dear listener, that is because this movie is predicated on the premise that short aliens are terrible at Basketball, an assertion proven true when the aliens steal powers from real life basketball players in order to compete fairly against the aliens. The short aliens invade the Looney Tunes because they want new attractions for their theme park on the moon. In order to win, the Looney Tunes enlist the help of Michael Jordan to fight the aliens and of course his friend Bill Murray, it’s a Space Jam and the future of Looney Tune world depends on the success of Cartoon characters, Michael Jordan and Bill Murray. === Space Jam Fan Theories === 1st Space Jam Fan Theory [6:00] ‘Space Jam demonstrates the woes of Capitalism’ A Space Jam Fan Theory from Reddit, written by the Reddit user Bananashammock. The theory argues that the head alien in Space Jam is the embodiment of capitalism, similar to Captain Planet’s Hoggish Greedly. This embodiment of capitalism attempts to exploit the Looney Tunes because, in their mind, they are a race of people who are able to be exploited and so by the mantra of survival of the fittest, the aliens should exploit these people and from their point of view, they are morally justified in doing so. Joe and Anthony then discuss how this movie would have turned out differently had the Looney Tunes & Michael Jordan seized the means of production. 2nd Space Jam Fan Theory [10:08] ‘Space Jam is in the same universe as Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ A Space Jam Fan Theory from Reddit, written by the Reddit user HPWuvcraft. This fan theory argues that the Space Jam universe and the ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ universe is one and the same. 3rd Space Jam Fan Theory [13:45] ‘Space Jam is about the modern exploitation of African American’ Joe argues in this theory, that Space Jam is portraying the modern exploitation of African Americans. The theory draws on similar themes presented in the horror film ‘Get Out’, where the central theme of that movie was the commodification and exploitation of African Americans as cultural objects. Space Jam sets up that like the Looney Tunes, Michael Jordan purpose in this film is to entertain us; he is not allowed a private life. Like the Looney Tunes, when a commercial cultural object begins to bore mainstream society, we shun them away in a separate society (because we have grown tired of them). This parallels the consumption of exoticised African American culture and how the dominant racial class (white people) are likely to cast aside this culture once they have finished consuming it of all its value. Space Jam is being avant garde in its portrayal of race, trying to mirror how mainstream culture consumes cultures of minority groups and that by seeing this portrayal, we as consumers should avoid continuing our exploitation of other people’s culture and start seeing people of other races and backgrounds not as cultural objects, but as people. 4th Space Jam Fan Theory [18:33] ‘In Space Jam, Bill Murray has fractured the multiverse’ Joe presents a theory that ties together Space Jam and the Bill Murray film Ghostbusters. In Ghostbusters, when they cross the streams to defeat the bad guy, that fractures the multiverse. In the Multiverse, there are multiple Bill Murray's, and after the streams are crossed, this causes the havoc, where the Looney Tunes universe and our universe collide; resulting in the Space Jam universe. This explains why in Space Jam, Bill Murray can travel between the multiverses. 5th Space Jam Fan Theory [25:50] ‘In the Looney Toon universe, the cartoon powers are triggered by violence’ Joe presents his theory on why cartoons have superpowers in the Looney Toon world and why at the end Michael Jordan can stretch out his arm, and it all has to do with violence. In the Looney Tune land, their special cartoon powers appear to be intrinsically linked to violent actions. 6th Space Jam Fan Theory [27:23] ‘The Looney Tunes only exists because of Michael Jordan’ In the final theory, we present how the Looney Tunes were willed into existence in Space Jam by Michael Jordan and maybe Bill Murray. As brief as possible, the Looney Tunes are Tulpas. === All In his Head === Anthony: ‘All of Space Jam happens because he is hit in the head by Newmann’s Golf Ball, and just dreams/hallucinates the whole thing’ === Subscribe and Listen to other episodes === Subscribe to us on iTune and get new shows instantly & check out our website https://www.fantheoriespodcast.com for all of our other fan theories and episodes. === Contribute Your Fan Theories === Join  Fans of Abstract Nonsense on Facebook to share your Fan Theories, or email any Fan Theories you have to our email yourtheories@fantheoriespodcast.com and we’ll read them out on the show.

    Home Improvement Fan Theory - Wilson’s Face & Why We Never See It

    We take a look at the classic TV show Home Improvement the fan theory: ‘Why We Never See Wilson from Home Improvements Face’. That Home Improvement fan theory is one of many that Joe and Anthony propose in this episode of Abstract Nonsense the Fan Theories and Alternate Readings Podcast. Listen to this episode and expand your mind!   === What is the Show? As explained by Joe === Home Improvement is the sitcom where Tim Allen plays himself and his character has an obsession with tools and all things manly & phallic. He has a family, with a lot of sons and a wife and a neighbor called Wilson (whose face we never see); who all help him engage in antics, as Tim does family things but also where he has to go away to his job on a TV set, where he is a TV presenter for tools and times. === Home Improvement Fan Theories === 1st Home Improvement Fan Theory [3:15] The reason why you never see Home Improvement’s Wilson’s Face is because he is in the Witness Protection program. Anthony argues that Wilson’s wife was involved in an unintentional drive-by shooting, caused by the Gangsta Disciples. In exchange for his testimony to convict the leaders of the gang, he was placed in the Witness protection program. Now Wilson waits in Detroit under a fake name until he is given the all clear. We never see Home Improvement’s Wilson’s face as Tim (his neighbor) is a local celebrity and media may be close by waiting to take photos of Tim. If Wilson ever shows his face, an unfortunate photo from the paparazzi may cost him his life. Some Evidence Put Forward Dr. Wilson W Wilson Jr. Ph.D. is clearly a fake name Wilson is an incredibly learned man in a field of study that is quite obscure, his education is well above the statistical average for Detroit Being born in Chicago, it is highly likely he attended and graduated from University of Michigan Ann Arbor Chicago is well known for its gang violence 2nd Home Improvement Fan Theory: [8:54] Tool Time is a Codeword FAN SUBMISSION - Sent in by Darren to Abstract Nonsense’s Email. Darren believes that Tool Time is a codeword for either smoking drugs or engaging in homosexual acts. 3rd Home Improvement Fan Theory: [11:38] Wilson is Your Dad FAN SUBMISSION - Sent in by Madeline to Abstract Nonsense’s Email. Madeline argues that Home Improvement’s Wilson is the biological father of some or all of Tim’s kids, and the reason we don’t see Wilson’s face is to avoid the children seeing the similarities in their own appearance and Wilson. This theory also explains why Tim is so macho. It’s because he is compensating for his lack of virility. Great fan theory from Madeline. 4th Home Improvement Fan Theory: [14:30] Home Improvement is a Satirical Portrayal of 21st American Consumer Capitalism Anthony argues that the setup for every Home Improvement episode is designed to mirror the cyclical and destructive lifestyle of Americanism & 21st Consumer Capitalism (at least from Anti-Consumer Capitalist perspective). In the show, Tim is the surrogate viewer, who like many American’s aspires to improve their own life. The use of power tools on Tool Time and the inevitable screw up by Tim is symbolic of Western Consumers aspiring for lacking qualities in their life, using a brand to get those qualities and then feeling empty and shallow after consumption. The conversations between Tim and Wilson are meant to mirror post-consumption guilt and the seeking of religious or spiritual absolution for a consumer's sin. Wilson is both a therapist and a priest all in one, dishing out great advice. Tim takes this advice, but because of his addiction to consumption; this advice is corrupted and he becomes enslaved to the cycle of: aspire, consume, guilt, absolve - repeat.   5th Home Improvement Fan Theory: [26:50] Tim Allen Saves The UniverseFAN SUBMISSION - Sent in by Jean to Abstract Nonsense’s Email. This theory incorporates the 1999 Galaxy quest and Home Improvement; and how the universe basically revolves around Tim Allen FAN SUBMISSION - Sent in by Jean to Abstract Nonsense’s Email. This theory incorporates the 1999 Galaxy quest and Home Improvement; and how the universe basically revolves around Tim Allen   6th Home Improvement Fan Theory: [29:55] Tim Intentional Screws Up to Keep Al from Succeeding.In this theory, Anthony argues that the reason why Tim Allen constantly screws up on Tool Time is because he doesn’t want the show to get to popular. Tim fears that if the show gets too popular, then agents from National companies will pick up the show and the first thing they will do is get rid of Tim (because Al is by far the superior handyman). In this theory, Anthony argues that the reason why Tim Allen constantly screws up on Tool Time is because he doesn’t want the show to get to popular. Tim fears that if the show gets too popular, then agents from National companies will pick up the show and the first thing they will do is get rid of Tim (because Al is by far the superior handyman). By screwing up the show, Tim assures that ratings remain at 3rd - 4th position on local cable and thus the show will never take off nationally, securing his job and masculinity. === Subscribe and Listen to other episodes === Subscribe to us on iTune and get new shows instantly & check out our website https://www.fantheoriespodcast.com for all of our other fan theories and episodes.   === Contribute Your Fan Theories === Join  Fans of Abstract Nonsense on Facebook to share your Fan Theories, or email any Fan Theories you have to our email yourtheories@fantheoriespodcast.com and we’ll read them out on the show.
