Have you heard of Bizarro World?
In the late 1960’s DC comics introduced the idea of a Bizarro World, a world that
is opposite of our daily expectations.
As fans watch their favorite films they speculate on alternate versions of the plots, characters
or even the worlds these characters live.
These conjectures can create some weird theories that can change the way you look at some of
your favorite films, especially when they are a cherished kids film.
Make sure to hit that subscribe button and like this video as we introduce you to Screen
Rant’s list of ten Theories That Turn Kids Movies into Creepy Movies.
Frozen, Tangled and The Little Mermaid
We know that Rapunzel and Flynn were at Elsa's coronation because we spotted them."
We know that the coronation takes place three years after the death of Elsa and Anna’s
parents.
We also know that the films Tangled and Frozen were released three years apart.
From the architecture in Tangled we can say the movie takes place in Germany and the architecture
in Frozen puts us in Norway.
Did the Frozen parents travel to Germany for Rapunzel and Flynn’s wedding but their ship
sank on the way there?
And in between Germany and Norway is Denmark, which is home to a famous mermaid.
Is the sunken ship that Ariel visits under the sea the vessel of Elsa and Anna’s parents?
Mind blown!
The Rugrats Movie
The Rugrats Movie is based off the popular Nickelodeon children’s cartoon, Rugrats.
The theory behind Rugrats is that the main characters are just a figment of Angelica's
tortured imagination.
Angelica has no emotional connection to family so she makes up these infants to belittle
and let her anger issues out.
If that’s the case, Angelica needs to be put in a padded room and on a well-balanced
diet of happy pills.
WALL-E
WALL-E is left on planet Earth to tidy up the mess left by humans and he has spent the
last 700 years placing the mess into cubes.
This symbolic film about waste and the effects on humans is a joy to watch and people easily
fall in love with the main character.
One fan theory suggests that the reason the planet was without humans is because WALL-E
killed them all and he’s cleaning up to repent for his sins.
This certainly would change the way we see WALL-E but we’re pretty sure this adorable
robot didn’t do this because he can’t even harm a bug.
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory
The beloved children’s film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory has given generations
of kids the dream of visiting Wonka’s factory.
But what if those dreams turned out to be nightmares?
Some say that Wonka is actually a cannibal and he’s taking the bad kids and preparing
them for meals.
Augustus Gloop better hope that tube leads to safety or he’s going to make a great
meal for Wonka, but let’s be honest.
Wouldn’t you take the chance of being eaten to be in that candy factory?
Toy Story and Toy Story 2
In the first Toy Story film Andy can be seen wearing a cowboy hat and then in Toy Story
2 the owner of Jessie has the same kind of hat.
It’s theorized that Andy’s mom was the original owner of Jessie and she passed down
her hat to her son.
If this is true, it is sad that Jessie has lived her entire life missing Emily and when
they are reunited Emily doesn’t recognize her.
It’s understandable for Jessie to not recognize her because she aged but Emily seems to never
shed a tear.
Luckily Jesse finds love with Buzz and has a new set of friends.
Wreck-It Ralph
In the film Wreck-It Ralph there’s a fictitious arcade game called, Hero's Duty and the games
main heroine is Calhoun.
Calhoun’s husband-to-be is eaten at the alter by a Cy-Bug and Calhoun quickly pulls
out a pocket chain gun and kills the Cy-Bug.
In the film we learn that a Cy-Bug takes the form of whatever they eat.
When a Cy-Bug eats Ralph’s gun it takes the form of that gun and when a Cy-Bug eats
candy it becomes candy.
So Calhoun was actually shooting the love of her life while sporting a wedding dress.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Who Framed Roger Rabbit brought all of your beloved cartoon characters in one film but
one theory suggests the plot reflects on a dark period of American history.
This theory suggests toons are minorities that were being oppressed by whites in a reflection
of the Jim Crow era.
They are called toons in a derogatory way, being oppressed, kicked out of their homes
and Christopher Lloyds character tries to assimilate to human culture but cannot making
his character an Uncle Tom.
Or it’s all about public transportation and a voluptuous cartoon character?
Aladdin
When watching Aladdin as a kid you can’t help but sit back and laugh at the antics
of Robin William’s Genie.
But when you grew up you might have wondered how the Genie knew Rodney Dangerfield or Jack
Nicholson?
How does he know what a 1950’s muscle car looks like or what an applause sign is?
One theory is that Aladdin actually takes place in the distant future, after a horrific
nuclear war.
The Genie even complains about the accommodations in his lamp.
Or maybe the Genie can time travel and that’s why he’s going to Disneyland at the end
of the movie.
Either way we loved William’s jokes and wouldn’t have it any other way.
Star Wars
Some will argue Star Wars is not a kid’s movie but go check your shelf and count how
many Star Wars figures you have up there.
Then get back to us.
This theory suggests that the treasured characters R2-D2 and Chewbacca are actually traitors.
R2-D2 avoids getting his memory deleted and Chewbacca uses Han Solo as a pawn.
We’re going to stop right there because we love those two characters and feel this
theory is traitorous and the person who thought of it needs to meet Lord Vader.
The Incredibles
Atlas Shrugged is novel by Ayn Rand published in 1957 about the philosophy Objectivism.
The Incredibles is about a married pair of superhero’s who are forced to live mundane
lives after all super-powered activities have been banned by the government.
Mr. Incredible’s talents are wasted in an office and his son Dash is forced to never
show his super speed.
Exactly what Objectivism is against.
The main villain Syndrome wants to give everyone the technology to be whatever they want to
be so everyone can be equal.
Once again being the essence of Objectivism.
This is a deep theory for a kids film and all we want to know if the plot of The Incredibles
2.
