Season 2016 - Episode 29 - Aired 10/19/2016

With Halloween fast approaching, we're about to experience one of Fall's spookiest trends - the Halloween Horror cash grab, as movie studies rush to make cheap scary movie sequels. Next up? Ouija.

With Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children coming out, and being in the start of a new school year, it got me thinking about these private schools for our gifted youngsters.

Season 2016 - Episode 28 - Aired 10/14/2016

So you'd have us believe it's better to stay living in fear behind some stupid wall for your whole pointless life? And to that I say, yes. Yes it is. And today, I'm going to prove it to Eren and all of you theorists as well. Because the biggest threat humanity face in Attack on Titan is not the Titans themselves, rather humanity's own selfish desire to spread.

#14 - Doctor Strange Magic DEBUNKED by Science

Season 2016 - Episode 32 - Aired 11/16/2016

Everything can be explained by science, including the "magics" of Dr Strange. Thor himself stated that they live in a place where magic and science are one in the same, and Dr Strange continues that statement. Today, I'm proving to you that the magics of Dr. Strange can all be explained with science.

#15 - Wall-E's Unseen CANNIBALISM!

Season 2016 - Episode 33 - Aired 11/22/2016

Wall-E is one of my all time favorite movies, cheering me up even when I'm in the worst of moods. But the other night when watching it, between the many moments of manly weeping, I came to a horrible realization - Cupcake-in-a-Cup is People! IT'S PEOPLE! I mean where else would their food be coming from? Now you're saying MatPat that seems a little dark, maybe even far fetched; and, I wish you were right. But unfortunately, I'm here to prove it to you.

#16 - ROGUE ONE's Turn to the Dark Side! (Star Wars: Rogue One)

Season 2016 - Episode 34 - Aired 11/29/2016

Star Wars is one of my all-time favorite movie franchises. And since The Force Awakens was actually good, let's hope we can keep the positive streak going with the first Star Wars spin-off, Rogue One. But already, one big question hangs over this movie: How are they going to explain away the fact that we haven't met any of these new characters in Star Wars Episodes 4, 5, 6 or 7?? It almost seems like Disney has written themselves into a corner with this one. BUT MAYBE these obscure characters are more familiar than we realize. Today, I'm going to show you who these rag-tag rogues really are, and in the process predict not only the ending of Rogue One, but also the events of Star Wars Episode VIII.

#17 - Frozen: Elsa's TRUE Fight For The Throne!

Season 2016 - Episode 35 - Aired 12/8/2016

#18 - How DRUNK is Tyrion Lannister? (Game Of Thrones)

Season 2016 - Episode 36 - Aired 12/17/2016

In a world full of dragons, giants, and magic is the most unbelievable thing that Tyrion Lannister is still alive? I mean this guy drinks like a fish - by all accounts shouldn't his drinking have killed him by now? Today we're answering Game of Thrones' biggest mystery - just how drunk is Tyrion Lannister?

#19 - Is Fake News KILLING the Internet?

Season 2016 - Episode 37 - Aired 12/23/2016

It's that time of year again, time for eggnog, caroling, and RANTING about the BREAKDOWN OF THE INTERNET! You know, usual holiday stuff. In all seriousness, though, for those who are new to my channels, once a year I like to delve beyond movies and video games and theorize about the platform I love and spent literally all of my time: YouTube. This year on Film theory the topic of the day is FAKE NEWS and why fake news and clickbait have been so prominent on YouTube this year. Seriously, they've been huge issues that everyone has been talking about and that every single one of you watching have been suckered into at one point or another. So where is it coming from? And more importantly, what do we DO about it? Well, I guess you clicked the video to find out... ;)

#20 - How to Make A REAL Sharknado!

Season 2016 - Episode 10 - Aired 4/14/2016

Ok, let's be honest. When I started this episode, I planned it as an April Fool's joke for the channel. But after researching it, it turned out that the theory of a sharknado is BIZARRELY plausible. With Sharknado 4 coming out this summer, we should all be prepared in case of a REAL shark storm!

#21 - Luke SHOULDN'T Destroy The Death Star (Star Wars)

Season 2016 - Episode 2 - Aired 1/17/2016

We all love to root for Luke while he's landing the crucial shots to destroy the Death Star...but what if we've been wrong all this time? What if destroying the Death Star is COMPLETELY wrong? This episode shows exactly why the destruction of the Death Star would have not only hurt the Rebel Alliance, but the entire galaxy...

#22 - How Batman DESTROYED Gotham (Dark Knight Rises)

Season 2016 - Episode 3 - Aired 1/28/2016

You thought Batman was a hero...but in true Film Theory style, today's episode tells a VERY different story. Batman in the Dark Knight Rises is supposed to be the realest, grittiest Batman EVER, but there's a MASSIVE scientific and logical error at the end of the Dark Knight Rises that shows Batman for what he actually is: a REAL failure.

#23 - How The Walking Dead will END!

Season 2016 - Episode 4 - Aired 2/11/2016

The end of the Walking Dead apocalypse is inevitable. No, not because Rick and his buddies are heroes come to save the day. But rather, because nature must runs its course. These walking corpses are doomed to an inevitable fate, and their expiration dates may be sooner than you'd expect.

#24 - We FOUND The SIMPSONS!

Season 2016 - Episode 5 - Aired 2/18/2016

Although it’s been the butt of many jokes throughout the series, one big question has always remained in the Simpsons universe: Where is Springfield? Today, the Film Theorists answer the question 27 years in the making.

#25 - How Trump is Winning with Reality TV

Season 2016 - Episode 6 - Aired 2/24/2016

When you think of the 2016 Presidential campaign, one name comes to mind - TRUMP. Every day, news stories come out about his inflammatory comments, his stubborn, unapologetic debate strategy...and that's EXACTLY the way he wants it. Trump is no traditional politician; his tactics come from somewhere else, and that place is REALITY TV. Trump's long history in reality television has given him the perfect strategic edge in the political arena, and so far he's winning the game of political Survivor that is the 2016 presidential race.
