Ok, so I'm 90% sure the Springtrap in the trailer is William pre-springlock, evidence below. This way it would make a lot more sense for the movie to explain why the springlocks failed, and not that it was just a bit of water. Besides the humming we hear from William sounds uncorrupted.

This way it would also make sense why the springtrap heads from the leaked Jim Hensons workshop were more yellow than the og springtrap design.

so there's a lot of speculation whether or not they're gonna have mike be michael or not in the fnaf movie. and so far even i thought it was pretty unlikely considering the little things we've been shown. but now that the full trailers been revealed there's something that caught my eye. and maybe i'm puling a matpat here and over analyzing one little frame but. just hear me out alright. so in the little snippet we see of a phone call between mike and william, it's pretty normal and well, there's nothing to show that they know each other. clearly mike doesn't know who he's talking to, he just wants a job.

and honestly for me i was losing hope that they were gonna have mike be revealed to be michael. since initially i thought this was just them confirming that he's not since, surely if he was michael then he'd recognize his fathers voice? but. that might not be the case.

my theory/speculation for the route they're going (again, emphasis on the theory i'm not saying this is 100% canon) is that it's heavily implied there's going to be SOME kind of flashback with mike as a young teenager, since a boy was cast and listed as "young mike" too. and this information about his character given back when casting for the roles were announced.

"riddled with guilt over a tragedy in his past" which only further strengthens the possibility of a flashback to the bite of 83 where michael pranked his brother and inadvertently caused his death. it's the aftermath of this event with determines how this theory could work. either, william and his wife divorced shortly after, and his wife got custody of mike - they married into another family, the schmidt's. this could lead to abby either being his step-sister or his half-sister.

OR. mike was taken away from william either because of the bite or because the police were heavily suspicious that william was responsible for the missing children. he was put into the system and adopted by - again - the schmidt's. and the reason he doesn't remember anything is because the trauma and the guilt from the bite of 83 and the death of his little brother caused him to heavily repress those memories and in turn, a lot of others (william) without realizing.

so mike doesn't recognize william's voice here. but william?

this is the frame that caught me here. his expression, the subtle smile on his face. the gears are turning in his head, something clicked.

what if william was keeping tabs on mike this whole time? and he carefully plotted to ensure he got the job at freddy's. for reasons unknown. maybe he just wanted to mess with him, make him remember everything he repressed from his childhood - he's trying to get him to remember by bringing him back to the place where it all started. he remembers his son, but mike doesn't remember his father.

BUT that's just me i'm a little insane. anyway i needed to make this post and write down my thoughts or i'd explode.

Okay maybe it's just my hyperfixation on horror movies right now but the way you can after years still hear the Stu voice when Matthew Lillard voices a villain is so insane to me.

The way that he pronounces "The owner is just not ready to let it go yet?" That tone change? Or pronunciation? It's a toned down version but that exaggeration is exactly how he would voice Stu, that overdone thing which would be stupid but fit so well with the psychotic and insane killer that Stu Macher was.

To put that little emphasis on William, to show that he is not stable, is already such a great hint to something being wrong and I love it. It's something that in a teen was brushed off as weird but with a fully grown character like William is alarming. Just a nudge that something feels wrong, that feeling we all get from time to time but many of us just brush off being perfectly induced by just a sentence. Just a mere change of tone that just is a slight warning almost that this is not right.

(I am not 100% sure this is him but I am almost certain) And again in "All you have to do is keep your eyes on the monitor?" That subtle change of tone, slightly unnerving but if you were just trying to work you would brush it off. Yet here it is almost like a taunt the same way many things Stu would have said were often in retrospective so obviously not right. In an adult most would just see it as mocking, maybe an older co-worker being so condescending about something obvious which many people get used to. But as a viewer, an outsider you almost feel the hair on the back of your neck stand up because you know this isn't right, you know there's something he is hiding.

To just carry over that subletly of something off, something just not quiet right, a weird sense of anxiety almost induced but then again something that could be so easily brushed off if someone were to just want to go on with their day. And to give that slight warning from the beginning, to show from the first moment that William is not sane, to have an almost underlying sinister tone is just an incredible story telling device.

This man is so incredibly talented and it already shows through those two lines.

Crows but actual crows

Some level of a shitpost. Lol. This has been floating in my Brain for awhile and I can actually do it because I’ve now seen all four movies. (Some of these might be ravens. Blame google)

The actual crow when it manages to get caught or harmed(because plot) despite being a powerful supernatural being:

Who needs a Y with this many Xs? - Experiment On Me - Halsey

King - Florence + The Machine / Daenerys Targaryen / King - Lilith Czar / Carmilla / Salma Hayek - WARGASM / Rhaenyra Targaryen / Daisy - Ashnikko / Rhaenyra Targaryen / Man’s World - MARINA / Azula / you should see me in a crown - Billie Eilish

So is no one gonna talk about how fucking racist the no fly list is?

According to insider, a fucking Muslim kid is on that list. A child is on the suspected terrorist list. We're just gonna ignore how fucked up that is?

God bless America more like Goddamnit America

gen z is the most anti-feminist generation alive today. they talk soooo much shit about older women when we wouldn’t even be able to open a bank account or get a divorce if it wasn’t for the activism of gen x and baby boomer women. and most of gen z is whining about gender feels and calling themselves bimbos on tiktok instead of doing anything tangible or meaningful. they consider themselves to be woke when the only “activism” they perform is dogpiling women they deem privileged.

There's a consistent pattern; after every era of increased women's rights, we see a period of anti-feminist backlash - which we're in the midst of.

Now that women are highly educated, a college education is no longer the guarantee of financial stability that it once was. When women enter lucrative/prestigious fields in large numbers, pay drops and the work is belittled.

They want us to convince us that relying on men financially is empowering (sugaring, prostitution, only fans, marry rich, etc.). They want us to believe that being hyperfeminine and sexually available to men is empowering.

They're rolling back the victories of 2nd wave feminists. For decades, the Right has chipped away at abortion rights across the country (Roe v. Wade is set to be overturned completely - and they've already begun talking about making various forms of birth control illegal). The Left has made it illegal to keep males out of women's shelters, bathrooms, prisons, sports, etc., which feminists had to fight tooth and nail to establish/improve. Now women have no guarantee that they won't be forced to share vulnerable spaces with men. The left has made it taboo to talk about women's rights at all without making a thousand genuflections and concessions. Women have lost friends, family, and careers for talking frankly about feminism.

Gen Z and younger millennials have grown up entrenched in all of this, in internet porn and social media culture, where our entire selves are condensed into consumable snippets. They've grown up in a post Kardashian world where plastic surgery and pornography are hyper normalized - where the most visible, financially successful women in American culture are the ones who have had numerous procedures and put their naked or nearly naked bodies out there on the regular.

The misogyny of gen Z is not accidental.
