As someone who works on big budget films like this, you totally get it dude. The massive scale, the dedication and organization that goes into it, the complexity that goes into what could amount to a few seconds, the digging for information despite being part of production. The film set is a crazy place and it's my love of that chaos that keeps me going.

It's definitely a lot of fun, but also very stressful. Im a special effects technician so my job usually involves pyrotechnics and fabricating stuff like stunt cars. Id say it's 90% no sleep chaos and stress and 10% feeling like a rockstar. Seeing the final product at the end is what makes it all worth it, it's hard to see how every departments role will fit in until your watching it a few years later.

[@skellyskellington5120]

If they make a sequel, Mat should have a cameo as some conspiracy theorist. depending on the time the movie would take place, there could be a podcast run by him that's literally just mat making conspiracy theories about Freddy Fazzbears Pizzaria, everyone would think he's crazy while every theory is 100% correct, but because every one thinks he's crazy the theory's just make the company look better. maybe it could be similar to the guy in the books who was paid to make bad games to make the company look better, but done a bit different, kind of like how the games, books, and movie are all canon but not the same. considering Mat's role in figuring out and spreading the lore so everyone in the community is on the same page, a small role perfect for a cameo but still important to the lore like that one would be perfect for him.

Dude, when I saw you in the movie, I yelled in excitement and my dads looked at me like "You know this person?" 😭

[@BetterKeepCalm1]

I really hoped the movie was gonna be revolves around Matpat working in the pizzeria. Would have been dope. Imagine it opens up with him being hired for the job, he internally thinks to himself that he heard rumors that the place was haunted but he shrugs it off saying “but hey, that’s just a theory”. he gets the job and all goes bad within the first night, something’s clicks in his brain from an alternative universe (Matpat and the game theorist videos) that tell him that this place holds endless theories and secrets that Matpat must solve in his current universe in order to survive. Sometimes he runs into animatronics and starts chatting to them about theories he’s made and remembered from his alternative universe’s self, and gets attacked midway through saying them. Not going to go all in to detail but then at the end he thinks he clears the night and celebrates. “Nice! I made it through the night I get to live!!!” then all the animatronics show up in front of him and he quietly and horrifyingly mumbles “that’s… just a theory…. A G-“ then gets devoured by the animatronics. would’ve been a cool idea

The amount of cheering, yelling and uproar that I heard and participated in when MatPat appeared on the screen in the absolutely crammed theatre was incredible. It truly felt like a shared moment for the community. Everyone was in complete shock. MatPat kept his secret hidden well, and I think the community wouldn't have had it any other way because of how amazing of a reveal it was to see Matthew's appearance live in the moment

So I came back from the movies like 30min ago. My schedule and the cinemas FNAF movie schedule didn't quite sinc so decided to wait until they change their screening hours. Didn't see this video or anything regarding the FNAF movie prior. I gotta say I was surprised and SOHYPED when I saw MatPat in the diner and he said "that's just a theory"

Seeing MatPat playing a character named Ness working in Sparky's Diner was genuinely the hardest laugh I got in the entire film (and that's saying a lot; there were some other excellent fandom in-jokes in there).

ik its been months but I went when it came out. When they saw MatPat they freaking erupted in yelling i just- it was surreal to see it in theatres, and like every in the theatre was friends for some reason literally like i was talking to complete strangers like "You look kinda like Freddy." "Wait you've seen that lore video too? ikr-"

No exaggeration , the second your voice came over the speakers and then you appeared the whole theater erupted into applause, I truly hope that was the reaction across the country. Great job Matt

[@Wowrc-xx4ry]

I knew it I had to look it up to confirm. You contributed to the popularity of FNAF so much. I remember being like 14 watching all the theories. I’m 21 now and play less and less games but man you were a big part of my childhood growing up Mat pat!

[@spencerreich3799]

I just noticed something, Matpat found a Chica pencil topper in his trailer, Chica's line in Ultimate custom night is "I was the first," and Matpat was day one scene one! Coincidence?

I saw an early afternoon showing on Halloween so the theater was pretty empty, but I heard every person in the room audibly GASP when you appeared on screen, myself included. It was this weird feeling almost like seeing an old friend make a surprise appearance in a movie. You did an amazing job, and it is so incredibly well deserved. Thank you, MatPat!

I was with my 5 friends and a packed movie theater but i was the only one that realized the moment i saw william and the way he spoke who he was and I also was the only one that recognized matpat and cory which made kinda annoyed because I was the only one that knew about the lore and was the only one getting hyped about it 😂💀

The fact that the first scene of the movie was for MatPat feels like a special gift for him and the FNAF fans for the long year run.
