Fans to hoarseness and ban on the forums are ready to argue about their favorite films. And sometimes such heated discussions lead to the emergence of interesting concepts. We present to you the top 7 crazy fan theories about the most popular Hollywood films.
7. Ja-Ja Binks was Lord of the Sith
Opens a list of interesting insights about popular franchises, the story from the Star Wars series, which was released in 1999. Not all Star Wars connoisseurs took the Phantom Menace well. But nothing unites the audience so much as hatred for the cheerful inhabitant of Naboo Ja-Ja Binks. There is even an amateur version of The Phantom Edit, which removes almost all the gungan scenes.
Such a negative assessment of the character made the scriptwriters minimize his further appearance on the screen. Because of this, rumors circulated on the Internet that the seemingly innocuous idiot was the Lord of the Sith in collusion with Palpatine. Under the guise of a boob hid a cunning and very clever warrior, using the Force so that it looked like incredible luck.
“Just one more weird assumption,” someone will say. Yes, if you do not take into account the opinion of Ahmed Best, voiced by Jah-Jah. In 2015, he published a tweet in which he wrote the following about the “dark gungan”: “Here's what I will say: it’s very nice that the hidden intent of the work is revealed. No matter how long it took. ”
6. James Bond is a code name
For many decades, there has been ongoing discussion about the continuity of films about the fearless and dexterous scout of the British MI-6 with a license to kill. In particular, the debate is conducted in two directions:
- James Bond paintings do not care about continuity at all, and the same person acts in them
- This is one long story in which many people adopted the codename James Bond when they joined MI6.
The debate did not subside even after the release of the Skyfall Coordinates tape, in which Bond visited the family nest and saw the tombstone of his parents. Proponents of the judgment on the code name also found something to answer: the hero Daniel Craig does not remember him, because his boss M "brainwashed him." And the antagonist Raul Silva is a former MI-6 scout and another Bond who worked under the leadership of M before embarking on cyber terrorism. That is why he refers to himself and to 007, as to the rats used by M. He remembers Skyfall well. This is the place where he was brainwashed. Moreover, this was done so carefully, and the introduced personality was so complete that Silva knew in advance where Bond would deliver M, and was ready for it. Silva considers himself so devoted that he does not have enough of the murder of M and the discredit of MI-6: he must burn the place where it all began.
5. Kill Bill - This is a movie in the cinema
The uniqueness of this concept lies in the fact that it was partially confirmed by Quentin Tarantino. He said that the action of all his paintings takes place in the same universe. And it has a cinematic sub-universe. And, according to Tarantino, when the heroes of “Pulp Fiction” decide to go to the cinema, they will see “Kill Bill”.
But it seemed a little to some fans of this and they decided that the beauty Mia Wallace (played by Uma Thurman) was the bride in Kill Bill.
When Mia and Vincent Vega are talking in a diner, the girl says that she once participated in a pilot series called Fox Force Five about a female team of secret agents, each of which has a specific specialty. In addition to her heroine, Raven McCoy, whose specialization was a sword, the team included: a blonde leader, a Japanese expert in kung fu, a black woman-killer, and a Frenchwoman whose “specialty” was sex. These five girls in Fox Force Five match perfectly with the five women in the killer squad in the first part of Kill Bill.
4. Gandalf had plans for eagles
Many fans of the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy are perplexed: “Why not just fly on eagles to Orodruin instead of wading through the ground?” This is considered the main plot hole, but there is an idea that Gandalf wanted, but did not manage to use these noble birds for travel.
According to the assumption of moviegoers, the Brotherhood of the Ring was sent to the Misty Mountains (where the eagles live), but it simply didn’t reach, since their leader fell from the bridge in the battle with the fiery demon Balrog. And the wizard did not reveal his plan to anyone, fearing spies. Having become Gandalf White, he forgot about his original intention, because he suffered from amnesia. In addition, by that time, the exact whereabouts of Frodo and Sam was unknown.
3. Agent Smith - The Chosen One
In third place in the ranking of unusual theories about blockbusters is the cult trilogy of brothers (and now sisters) Wachowski. She presented our reality as a computer illusion, through which machines control people. The plot was centered on the Chosen One, a man with supernatural abilities, and not only in the Matrix but also in the real world. According to prophecy, his actions could lead to the freedom of mankind. Most viewers unconditionally accepted Neo as such. But there were those who suggested: The Chosen One could be Mr. Anderson's “Nemesis,” Agent Smith.
It is as important for the plot as the protagonist of The Matrix. In addition, since ultimately both Neo and Smith “merged” together, the latter also connected to the Source. That is, Neo is a living channel for Smith, who fulfills the prediction.
2. Stan Lee is an alien
The Marvel blockbusters have two traditions: obligatory scenes after the credits and Stan Lee's cameo. He is a necessary element of each of the Marvel worlds, although he does not claim more than a couple of minutes of screen time.
One of the most curious versions says that Lee is the same character in all the cameos and that he is not just some kind of “street guy”. In fact, he is the smartest alien named Huatu, a representative of the highly developed race of Observers. The role of these creatures is to observe other, not so developed worlds. They decided not to participate in the affairs of the “smaller brothers” after they had given atomic energy to the planet, which then broke out a nuclear war. However, Huatu periodically breaks a promise and intervenes in earthly problems, as he is not indifferent to the fate of his new home.
This interesting hunch was approved “at the very top” by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feigi. And what's more, in the new installment of Guardians of the Galaxy, one of the best films of 2017, Stan Lee is shown sitting in a group of Observers. He is listed in the credits as “Observer Informant”.
1. Gambling “stepped out of the shadows” and destroyed the gloom of Gotham City
In the 1990s, Batman movie stories were at their peak. The first two films were directed by director Tim Burton, and Michael Keaton was the billionaire Bruce Wayne and his alter ego. Later, Joel Schumacher took over the helm of the "beta ship", and the franchise has undergone changes not for the better. The failed Batman and Robin came out and Gotham City itself was seriously modified. At Burton it was dark and deserted, and Gotham Schumacher sparkled with neon lights and struck the imagination with the height of statues.
Perhaps such a radical change is explained by the legalization of gambling, which made the gloomy Gotham City the film-like of the catchy Las Vegas. This had a beneficial effect on the economy, but at the same time, everything became too bright: both the villains and the main character with his beta credit card and even the Batmobile with the flame from the exhaust pipe. And the defender of Gotham turned into a living mascot, a kind of bait for tourists. Although this version still does not provide an answer to a very important question: why is Batman's costume nipples.
