Here are Screen Rant's 10 Movie Theories That Completely Change Children's Films.
Peter Pan
When people think Disney mermaids, the ones in the animated version of Neverland aren't
the first ones that come to mind.
But they were the first, showing their talent for trouble making, a distrust of mortals,
and a fear of pirates.
And one of them looks an awful lot like Ariel, the Star of The Little Mermaid.
So much, that fans have theorized that it's actually Ariel's mother, Athena.
The mother isn't introduced until the straight to video sequel, where she is eventually killed
by - you guessed it - pirates.
If the theory is true, then she really should have stayed in Neverland.
Finding Nemo
It's a happy story, but Finding Nemo begins with a heartbreaking scene, as Nemo's mother
is killed along with the rest of her eggs, leaving Nemo to be raised by his father, Marlon.
At least, that's what you're meant to think.
But after watching Marlon's whole adventure, some have pointed out that it's a close parallel
to the stages of grief - as in, the way he would have to come to terms with losing Nemo,
too.
Was Marlon searching for an imaginary son the entire time, unable to accept that he'd
lost his entire family?
There isn't much actual evidence to support it in the story, but it's too dark to not
mention.
Back to the Future
Nobody ever asked how a teenage boy and an elderly scientist and failed inventor became
best friends, but there wasn't much time before Doc Brown sent Marty McFly back in time to
wonder.
But take a closer look at the DeLorean's first trip through time: Doc makes Marty stand beside
him staring down the speeding car, with it disappearing just in time.
Since every other one of his inventions failed, fans claim, he would've had to think the same
might happen here.
Apparently, Doc had reached his breaking point, making sure that if this invention was also
a bust, he wouldn't live to make another.
And he'd be taking Marty with him.
Talk about heavy.
Willy Wonka
Even fans would agree: there is something very off about Willy Wonka.
But some people claim that Wonka isn't just weird, but a cold blooded killer.
He never seems too surprised when the children on his factory tour wind up hurt or possibly
killed, or even upset.
Once fans realized that his Oompa Loompas would have needed time to rehearse their songs,
describing which children were harmed, and how, the theory was complete: long before
the Saw movies (Use Still), there was Willy Wonka, and his chocolate factory death trap
- only kids allowed.
Star Wars
You don't have to be a kid to love Star Wars, but George Lucas clearly hoped that one character
in his prequel trilogy, Jar Jar Binks would be a hit with young fans.
Instead, he became a punching bag for the prequels as a whole.
But what if fans were right to hate the Gungan klutz?
It may sound like a long shot, but the theory that Jar Jar was faking his stupidity, and
working for the Dark Side all along has gained a lot of steam.
The “Darth Jar Jar” theory even made it to Lucas himself.
But if it's true that Jar Jar and the Emperor were working together all along, he's not
letting the secret out any time soon.
Toy Story
The toys take the spotlight in Pixar's series, but there are humans, too: Andy, the boy who
owns the toys, and his mother and sister.
But most fans have wondered about Andy's father.
It's nothing new for a Disney movie to have a parent or two out of the picture, but it's
never explained, or even mentioned.
Some fans have taken that fact as a sign that Andy's father either left the family, or passed
away long before the first movie - explaining his connection to strong, honourable, father
figure dolls like Buzz and Woody.
One Pixar writer has supported that idea, so this theory isn't as far fetched as some
might think.
Spider-Man
It may not be a kids movie but Spider-Man remains extremely popular with today’s youth.
Peter Parker's journey from geek to superhero is a dream come true for every comic book
nerd, but when he hit the big screen, some fans think it was a more universal story being
told.
Peter doesn't start getting powers until he hits high school, when he starts getting serious
feelings for a childhood crush, grows into a man's body overnight, and starts spending
more and more time alone in his room.
It seems a pretty clear metaphor for boys hitting puberty, at least that's what some
claim.
Even without the sticky webbing, it's a hard case to argue.
Harry Potter
Most of the magical spells in the Harry Potter series were created from scratch, but the
most evil curse actually sounds familiar.
But why would The Killing Curse sound just like "Abra cadabra," one of the most well
known magic spells in the world?
Fans have connected the dots, deducing that wizards and witches weren't always kind to
Muggles (those are non magic people for non harry potter fans!), some imagining they even
killed everyday people for sport.
More optimistic fans claim the curse was used to kill infections before Muggles got wise
to magic, so fans can take their pick.
But it isn't just Harry Potter who makes out like the hero of the series, thanks to one
fan theory based directly on the books.
Most fans will remember Neville Longbottom as a bumbling, but lovable sidekick who eventually
let his good heart make up for his lack of magic.
But remember: a wizard's wand matters too - that's why it's supposed to choose its user.
But Neville chose to use his father's wand instead, which was probably the reason for
his disastrous magic.
It was only after he purchased a wand of his own that he joined Dumbledore's Army, battled
Death Eaters and became an all around top tier wizard.
It turns out Neville was a master spellcaster the entire time.
Home Alone
We've saved the most incredible theory for last.
Everyone knows how Kevin McCallister survived a Christmas home alone, using paint cans,
nails, tar and blowtorches to turn his house into a torture chamber for two attempted burglars.
But it wasn't his last.
That's right, some fans believe Kevin grew up to become Jigsaw, the murderous mastermind
of the Saw movie series.
Once you factor in Kevin's serious rage issues, it's the best kind of theory.
One that makes both movies seem even more amazing - whether it's true or not.
Those are some of the most entertaining and convincing theories based on kids' movies
that we've found, but which ones have we missed?
