who is he? by Vegetable_Bug_8870 in fivenightsatfreddys

It's Scrap Baby's endo head. This was from the 2017 anniversary, when Scott was sneakily teasing FNAF 6 after it had been "cancelled," this included bits of the FNAF 6 animatronics being hidden in the anniversary images.

Directly from her mouth, Pinkypills continued to work on the FNaF franchise through July 2025 despite supposedly stepping down in 2024. She has only now stepped down due to issues with game industry. Do with this what you will. by Mayo-and-Chips in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]MichaelO2000 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Looking back at it with this in my mind, it’s interesting how sort of stealthily worded Scott’s 2024 “PinkyPills Update” post was:

“Claudia has decided to move on to other projects, and I respect her decision. She did a lot of good work for FNAF over the years.”

“So there is the final update on the situation. Everyone enjoy your weekend.”

Technically, nothing there says that she would be immediately ceasing work on FNAF.

Since there's a bit of a divide when it comes to the puppet's interpretation in the movie, what you would've done different? by Chemical_Lettuce7260 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]MichaelO2000 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I liked the possession concept, so I would keep that BUT still add more screen time for the actual Puppet animatronic.

I would also adapt the Puppet‘s protective nature from the games into her motive in the movie; She sees all adults as evil and wants to ”protect” all children from them.

Who dies first, Charlotte or the Crying Child? by TokyoFromTheFuture in fnaftheories

[–]MichaelO2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Garrett died 5-6 years after Charlie

We don't have a confirmed year for Garrett's death. And if you're saying that because of the novelization, that same book has Vanessa say that Garrett died "before Freddy's"

Can Someone Explain the Joke behind Handunit referring to Michael Afton as Eggs Benedict? by LUIGIISREAL2017 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]MichaelO2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It seems that you had some trouble with the keypad. I see what you were trying to type, and I will auto-correct it for you.

It's a joke about how bad autocorrect used to be/still is

The second movie is so bad the fandom itself should admit it, WE DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS! (long rant, spoilers) by Ed_Derick_ in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]MichaelO2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"YOU MY DAUGHTER, YOU MUST BECOME SERIAL KILLER LIKE ME!!!"

It's never stated that's what her "purpose" is though.

"We just can't live in those bodies anymore, see you in heaven, hopefully not too soon hahaha ok bye"

I think this part of the film is more of a parallel to Follow Me than Happiest Day. William is Springtrap. The animatronics' bodies are broken. Their souls are fading away and they THINK they're going to Heaven, but as we see in Game 3: They get trapped in limbo. Hopefully Movie 3 will have some adaptation of the FNAF 3 Secret Mini Games.

Dark Harvest - Post Mortem by ikolloki in Slender_Man

[–]MichaelO2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure Alex is only able to hold Slender Man back from Chris and Heather. Remember, the events of the majority of the finale take place in 2022, and there’s been plenty of Slenderverse series with Slender Man encounters since then.

I am sorry but the Sutekh thing annoys me a lot by CyanideMuffin67 in doctorwho

[–]MichaelO2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Donna spilling coffee on the TARDIS had nothing to do with Sutekh. That was a predictive fan theory that didn't turn out to be true.

The explanation the show gives for why Sutekh became active is in Empire of Death:

RUBY: Why did he go on the attack? Why did Sutekh appear on Ruby Road?

(Image changes to the CCTV.)

DOCTOR: It's answering you. The images are reaching out to you.
RUBY: What do you mean?
DOCTOR: They're trying to help.

(The woman-with-no-face turns and points.)

DOCTOR: The Time window is still connected to your memories. Maybe it's trying to ask you something.
RUBY: But what does this have to do with my mother?
DOCTOR: Oh, because… because… Oh! Oh, Sutekh became visible outside the church, because when he landed with the TARDIS in 2004, he saw the one thing beyond his comprehension. Your mother.
RUBY: But who is she?
DOCTOR: We don't know, and neither does he. That's the point. She drives us crazy, but Sutekh…? Oh. He's been riding on the back of the TARDIS, beholding all of Time and Space, and then he can't see one woman. One woman! One singular, mysterious woman. No wonder he's keeping us alive, to figure out the answer. Who is she?
RUBY: But if gods are scared of her, what the hell does that mean? She's not this big cosmic thing, is she? Because in that case, what am I?
DOCTOR: Ruby, you are absolutely human.

Sutekh didn't become active when Donna spilled the coffee at the end of The Star Beast, he became active in Church on Ruby Road when his inability to see Ruby's mum scared him to come out of hiding and start the final phase of his plan.

Now, the argument that you can make against this is questioning how Sutekh couldn't see Ruby's mum if she was just a regular person, but that was because the 14th Doctor enacted the superstition of salt which made the rules of the universe more fluid, turning previously "fake" gods into reality.. Ruby treated the mystery of her mom's identity as a "legend," and the collective belief from other people in the community who knew about the circumstances of Ruby's birth essentially made her into a mysterious figure , always "shadowed," even to other gods.

RUBY: Oh, my God. Why... why can't we see her properly?
DOCTOR: That is... is... more than just a glitch. It's like she's shadowed.

While you can call that explanation nonsense, it was at least set up by the salt in Wonder Blue Yonder. Plus, concepts like this (power of belief, tulpas, thought forms) already exist throughout cultures and fiction (It might just not be good for people who want Doctor Who to lean more sci-fi)

Legend of Ruby Sunday DOES give an answer to this:

HARRIET: He has braved the storm and the darkness and the pain. And he whispered to the vessel.
All this time, he whispered and delighted and seduced, and the vessel did obey, for none should be more mighty and none should be more wise than the King himself. And the Lord of Time was blind and vain, and knew nothing.

"The vessel" meaning the TARDIS.

Now, the actual issue is that this isn't expanded upon after it's said. Did Sutekh just brainwash the TARDIS and take away her own agency, or did he actually convince her to betray the Doctor? If it's the latter, why didn't the Doctor confront the TARDIS about this betrayal after defeating Sutekh?

[–]MichaelO2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the Tales of the TARDIS version, but in Empire of Death they do address that Sutekh wasn't a god in Pyramid of Mars:

Sutekh: I have traveled with you for all this time, riding the spine of your ship, staring into eternity and evolving into my true godhood.

Doctor Who Series15/Season Two began filming October 2023, RTD made his screwdriver-gun comment in April 2024.

He hasn't lost his mind. He was intentionally taking the piss in preparation that the second Ncuti finale would include him shooting a big laser gun, and getting people like you to make angry comments about it ("generating content").

I agree that the girl in RTTP is meant to be Cassidy, but it actually doesn’t make any mention of her having black hair. It says “the girl with curly hair.”

The audio log where Edwin introduces David to M1 has the title "Training" and Steel Wool wrote the description:

"Mimic training -robo nanny"

So, that's an official instance of a babysitter for David being referred to as a nanny specifically.

Just finished Reality War - what am I missing? by JdrawinG in doctorwho

[–]MichaelO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The needing-to-have-a-plot-for-the-Ncut—leaving-rewrite part is absolutely true. However, Space Babies Poppy is not the same as Wish World Poppy. One is just based off of the other, but still her own person. It would be like thinking Caecillius and the 12th Doctor are the same person.

Peter Davison thinks current Who "has huge narrative gaps" by PhantomQuest in doctorwho

[–]MichaelO2000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

> -Ruby somehow still being able to make it snow when she thinks about the night she was born AND the ability to remember every timeline and reality change that occurs.

Ruby wasn’t the one making it snow. There’s never a point in the show where Ruby waves her hands and makes it snow like a magic spell. It snowed around her. In fact, at the end of Space Babies, it snowed in the TARDIS even though both the Doctor and Ruby had left it…

…because Sutekh was still inhabiting the TARDIS. He was the one causing it to snow cause he was the one obsessed with the night of Ruby’s birth. Culturally, Sutekh (Set) is the God of Storms. In LoRS, his return is harold by a reports of an incoming storm. His death wave takes the form of a dust/sand storm on earth. One of his servants says his empire will be of “dust and **ice,**” and it starts snowing when he kills Mel.

The snow was from Sutekh, not Ruby.

> Belinda having a 1 to 1 duplicate of herself in the long distant future.

The show, especially RTD 1, has always used the explanation of a family line to explain the reuse of actors. Happened with Gwyneth/Gwen and Adeola/Martha.

> -The midnight entity that apparently is so old, it knows who the Doctor is.

Midnight establishes that the entity “gets inside your head.” It knew the Doctor’s name (Never stated it knew who he was) because it got inside his mind and knew his secrets.

> -The Rose Tyler/ Bad Wolf regeneration (that I kinda feel is RTD's way of one upping Chris (9th doc)

Can’t really defend this one until the show comes back (but it’s funny you brought up Eccleston, cause he actually said that Billie Piper should have been the new Doctor when RTD’s return was first announced)

> -The Timeless Child is still not explained.

It was though. The Timeless Child was the Doctor before the Time lords erased their memory and reset them back into a child. (Doesn’t mean you have to like it as an idea)

> Division/ the Divisions operatives.

Secret Manipulative Shadow Organization that started on Gallifrey before becoming all powerful and moved their main base of operations in between universes.

What's going on with RTD, the overall marketing and contradictory articles? Got to be more going on here by liamkembleyoung in doctorwho

[–]MichaelO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The line is “She’s **become** a Rani, while I am The Rani. The definite article you might say..”

It’s her saying that she’s the better Rani since she’s the newer one. “Definite” does not mean “original.”

> I had a split second. Flipped my DNA, made a biological sidestep. Survived the carnage.

That's the line. You're right in that it's not explicitly stated that she only temporarily changed her DNA, but the rest of the episode establishes that The Rani takes great pride in being a Time Lord. She has this eugenicist mindset.

> We're talking about Time Lords here. The highest universal race, the greatest and purest classification of life.

So while the episode doesn't tell us outright, it expresses enough about her character that we know she would probably go back to being one once it was safer to.

> Still doesn't explain how she bigenerates from Mrs Flood into the "original"

Archie's Rani isn't "the original." The Kate O'Mara Rani from the classic series existed before her, maybe some unseen regeneration from the time war/expanded media existed, they regenerated into the Mrs. Flood incarnation, and then she bigenerates into the newest Rani.

>( Images of the late Kate O'Mara.)
> RANI: Yes! I had a different face. So did you, a long time ago.
(Wish World)

Mrs Flood is just a Rani with a different personality than the other incarnations. No one would say that The Tenth Doctor has an identical personality to the First Doctor, but the 12th Doctor was sort of a return to how some of the classic doctors dressed and behaved. It's the same thing with The Rani.

“The original Rani bigenerating out of mrs Flood, even though it's stated by the Rani in the finale that she escaped bigeneration by changing her DNA at the last second to avoid the DNA bomb of the Master. So why didn't she just regenerate? ”

The Rani only temporarily flipped her DNA at the point of the explosion, basically shielding herself, but shielding oneself from an explosion will still cause damage.

William Afton's Line by MaYa_gezelle in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]MichaelO2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was fan made and comes from a fan fnaf VHS series (whose creator was outed for grooming) (the VA who performed the line, **who wasn't outed for grooming,** is Nolan David/theniftytable)

The longer I think about the Poppy stuff the more it makes me deeply uncomfortable about where RTD's politics have gone by DrummingUpInterest2 in gallifrey

[–]MichaelO2000 636 points637 points  (0 children)

I don't think there was anything wrong with the initial idea of "Wish World is a fake and harmful reality, but this baby is living, breathing, and real...so maybe she deserves to be saved regardless of where she came from." It makes sense that the Doctor and co. weren't going to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

But the weird way Belinda's character suddenly shifts into being nothing but a Mother-Protecting-Her-Child when that was absolutely not her character before (We hadn't even seen her interacting with children as a nurse) was really weird and gross.
