Maybe Bill avoids Reality 34 because he doesn’t want to see THAT kind of art

[AlexeiZagaiciuc]

My theory is that dimension 34 is our own world, our reality. It explains why the Henchmaniacs looked so realistic in the photos.

[SKy_the_Thunder]

"R34LITY" might just refer to _our_ reality. Real life. The only place Bill can't possibly use his godly powers in, because it's outside the scope of fiction. It's the one place Hirsch can't write larger scale events for. Bill can at most hope to act on an individual level, which other characters have a good chance avoiding. Plus it ties into why this ARG plays out in our world.

4:00 I’ve known about Frilliam for a couple minutes and I’m already crying thinking of him looking back

[grantarmstrong]

The phrase “I cannot see him, he is blind” is likely a reference to fiddleford erasing his memory and to the society of the blind eye.
However, this got me thinking, did McGucket create the memory gun to defeat bill?

When mcgucket found his old memories, he references bill cypher in the last memory shown. This is well after mcgucket had already erased his memories of entering the portal, and this always struck me as odd. Furthermore, why did he use the memory gun so much more than anyone else?

My theory is that in the portal, bill corrupted mcgucket’s mind, and that fiddleford continuously used and adjusted the memory gun to be able to destroy the corruption.

1:21 "Thanks to... Reddit." What, is something wrong with Reddit revealing all your secrets, Alex?

[Nowhere]

I’m a simple man, I see bill, I click

[TheCartoonConnoisseur]

I feel like the unravelling of the Nightmare Realm (In the book of Bill, it is shown that the Nightmare Realm is slowly destroying itself) has to tie in with this. Maybe the hole in space is the Nightmare Realm itself or some leftover residue from Weirdmaggedon.

Also in Weirdmaggedon part 1, when Time Baby shows up to defeat Bill he says that if weirdmaggedon continues, it could destroy the very fabric of existence. Seems like that fits with the whole "There's a Hole in Space" thing. But I'm not quite sure how

Funfact: when the shapeshifter said "finally.. after all these years.." could of been foreshadowing stan saying "finally.. after all these years, i have them all."

Btw antimatter is not “negative matter”. It’s a form of matter that annihilates when it comes into contact with its corresponding antiparticle, annihilating meaning converting all the energy in their mass to other forms. Basically, exploding.

I'm one of the mods in the R/GravityFalls discord server and I can't express how happy it makes me seeing the community get its credit

[Zorgdub]

"I'm not going to tell you where the undiscovered secret is."

So that means that there's only one left.

[ArthurEKing]

Well the first thought that popped into my mind with the words "Hole in Space" is the concept of a wormhole... Which (according to the slightly-wrong, but often sited paper-folding with pen inserted example) makes me think that there is a page in the book (Possibly more than one...) where if you fold it in some way shape or form, you'll get some new piece of information.

[mikeyallen]

Small correction, the three body problem isn't unsolvable. It is just as beholden to the laws of physics as a two body system. Its just that the system becomes chaotic, which just means that the result is very sensitive to the initial state. Knowing the initial conditions means you can predict how the system will evolve

"At this point, I think Gravity falls and the book of bill need no introduction"
*proceeds to introduce them*

[qwentin]

3:04 yes Ninjago perfectly aligned with gravity falls. Love it!

When we getting a ninjago theory though it’s been 15 seasons and an extra series with 2 seasons

Spoilers for Gravity Falls and

As I was watching this, I actually realized something. As many people know, the other Disney shows Amphibia and The Owl House all take place in the same universe a Gravity Falls, though judging by easter eggs Gravity falls takes place much earlier in time than the other shows. While most to all the connections are just easter eggs, and they may not even be "canon", but it still begs the question, what if there is more of a connection than we originally thought, especially to Amphibia. A book written by a Mr. P is what leads Marc to the box in the first place and we see Bill in that book. Main point here is that axolotls, like Mother Olm, are very important the plot of Amphibia and are shown to have a closer connection to the Guardian, a figure that seems very similar to the Axolotl in Gravity Falls. While the physical form we see of the Guardian ends up being Anne's cat, it still begs the question. What if the Guardian and the Axolotl are the same entity?

Edit: I just realized that the solar system doodle at 7:23 matches up with the layout of the invisibility glyph from The Owl House near perfectly!!!

I have a small "theory":Before the website was released, and there was Soos fixing wires one time he said ??-??-2026 and i think that it might be the year where anti gravity falls or whatever gets released

9:40 Bill fears the "34" because it is the number of the most infamous rule of the internet.

[DeadPool-eg]

Don't think this will ever be seen but 8:58 when it says "I can not see him he is blind" i thought about an interesting fact. Axolotls are usually blind because then tend to live in bark places where sight isn't viable, and if like other eye related religious symbols Bill can see through eyes or eye runes (like what are scattered all across the show) then that would explain why the Axolotl is a problem for Bill. If you read this far please comment and like so that this can get some attention and not get passed up
