[@venomfan2020]

It's not like the story's incomplete tho, basically a fungus from the meteor that killed the dinos was discovered and sold on the Black Market as a drug, it gets out of control as the fungus spreads disease, chaos & carnage throughout the U.S., and then at the end aliens come in and cleanse the earth of the Smile Fungus, and society heals from the incident.

I think the man is probably the spores' twisted version of a human. Maybe the first human it infected thought of a man that looked similar to the man, and the spores retained that information, but it got slightly less clear as generations of the spores went by. The face eventually got so corrupted that it looked like the one in the tapes.

to quote one of my fav lines from the Grumps: "bulletproof, or rocketproof? oh, bulletproof." 😂

[@aftonchaos162]

Okay not sure if you are working on a new theory already but if you're not I have an idea. A youtube short film I have loved at keep rewatching it, it's called I am a pebble. The short film is about a river otter named bubble. Bubble befriends three rock and acts like there alive. Soon into the short film Bubble sees more and more how her rock "family" is not alive. I have a slight feeling that how they put the senses of one of the "otters(the smallest rock) is sinking into the river but Bubble sees it as an otter not know how to swim or drowning the tiny otter/rock gives a little wave to Bubble before we go back to seeing the small rock. So that leaves me with the question.... What happened to Bubble family or group. I personally think that seeing that part of the film makes me think that something happened that otter due to drowning most likely and Bubble most likely saw it but couldn't save them because she was young herself. I love otters and I have been researching about them for years now and I know that otters normally wouldn't be alone like Bubble is in the short film. So I'm thinking a few things right now.... Is Bubble dead? Did something tragic happen to Bubble's pod? Did the baby otter really drown? Was that Bubble? Or did Bubble do something to the pod? OR did Bubble drown that otter and regrets it but the pod couldn't forgive her for killing her own kind. Please try and make a theory about this, I have been posting on almost every recent film theory I could find but never got even an answer. Yeah this is for Film Theory. BTW I love every video you guys make nver fail to keep surprising us. PS. Matpat I miss you being the host but I hope you're doing well.

⚠️Hello everyone!⚠️ Your friendly neighborhood Bait Police officer here to remind you not to reply to computers under comments! Replying to them makes KZbin think that they’re real people. Things to do if you see a computer reply: 1. Do NOT reply! I know it might be tempting to clap back as these computers tend to slander our favorite creators, like MatPat here, especially after he announced his retirement, but replying to them will fool the KZbin algorithm into thinking that they’re real people. 2. Report the comment either for “Unwanted commercial content or spam”, or for “Harassment and bullying.” (Either works, but if you try both a couple of times and the comment doesn’t get removed, try reporting for Hate Speech.) 3. Block the account by going to their channel, first pressing the “Report” button to report the channel and then clicking “Hide this user from my channel” so that pesky computer account can’t reply to your comments anymore.

Always a great way to end my day 😊 did not have a good day today but i look forward to the silly banter and i guess thats enough for me :')

[@Ol.Reliable]

Did some digging, that morse code you hear after you get a monologue from the happy man at 50:55, I did some editing in audacity to make it louder and then exported it into a morse decoder, and i got : DEPLOY DEPLOY DEPLOY bout to drop some data: Dit count: 21m Min ms: 21.3 max ms: 40 average ms: 31.7 standard deviation ms: 5.1 -------------------------- Dah count: 30 Min ms: 90.7 Max ms: 821.3 average ms: 128.3 Standard deviation ms: 128.8 ----------------------------- Dit space count: 39 Min ms: 29.3 Max ms: 58.7 average ms: 42 Standard deviation ms: 5.4 --------------------------- Dah space count: 16 Min ms: 29.3 Max ms: 170.7 average ms: 119.3 Standard deviation: 14.3 ------------------------ Space count: 1 Min ms: 210.7 Max ms: 210.7 average ms: 210.7 Standard deviation: 0 --------------------- No one is going to see this so I don't know why I bother commenting if no one sees it

[@Redux365]

Why tho

[@nicolegleason5727]

Thx bro

[@parkermaddern]

yo! I've never commented on a gt live vid before but I've been watching for a while. spotted something at about 29:33 just after the red face disappears, i cant make it out so it might be nothing but i thought it was worth a mention since I haven't seen anyone else talking about it. keep up the good work matt and ash! :)

[@HoverMelon2000]

I REALLY want Matpat to cover Greylock. It's another analog horror series that I think is SUPER well doneand it terrifys me even more than the smile tapes. Wendigoon covered it a while ago and I think Lee would really like to cover it on Film Theory because it's main focus is about thoughtforms, just like in Guby, but delves SO MUCH deeper.

[@shawnheatherly]

This is a very impressive project and I do feel the creator should be pleased with what they did. I also think it is incredibly funny that the solution, seemingly to the entire threat, was fire.

Lincoln would play the saxophone don't ask me why but my brain said Lincoln = Saxophone

[@farawayxgalaxy]

“Gamers. He does, in fact, jam” is going to make me laugh endlesslt

[@SubatomicSpeck]

I AM SO DARN HAPPY!!!!!!!!!! So glad you guys are in the works of doing a theory on one of my favorite analog horrors! Patorikku would be proud!!

[@deku6606]

Hai ash and mat. It'd be an honor if you responded with the wittiest of banter lines.

[@HxH_Weeb-]

That would be cool

[@kenny8170]

iv been watching you seance i can remember i love your content man

[@Oscwilde_Gaming]

Just another Mat and Ash mental health boost to start the day Also, *DINOSAURS*

[@icarus8372]

I love this series! It is such an effective analog horror thats somewhat logical… more alien-like! Love you mattypatburger!🌟

[@EagleEye-oe4xe]

Wait, you guys missed some letters/numbers that flashed at 29:34, and a transparent smiling person on the screen at 39:02, and some morse code at 50:57!

[@GalexyGamer596]

Please make a whole 1-2 hour video where you guys just chat, it’s really fun. You guys have such good vibes!

[@elsieallanpoe]

I love when Mat and Ash just stick to a joke for minutes on end going back and forth lol

[@Pineapple8556]

Day three of asking matpat to play color or die

[@Babaa_Ji1]

good to see matpat still makes content on gtlive occasionally

[@juliadavis3100]

“Ooooh cursed mini fridge… I could see that.” Like what!? How do these two always manage to make me laugh ( 20:53 )

[@dylanthurston261]

I love watching the analog horror videos, i really hope matpat tries to uncover the insanity the monument mythos later seasons at some point.

[@neolithiumproduction]

Ok...but why would your first instinct after discovering ancient spores in a bug be to huff it? xD And Washington strikes me as a drum or piano guy.

[@WobblesWattles]

48:12 I wasn't in my right mind at the time I wasn't (great). I still am. I couldn't cope with it at the time. I couldn't help it. I could not show for work that day, but I had some (1-2 words) (1 word maybe, matpat laughing ar same time) without his father it's so much harder to do. Now I'm here. Stuck in the laboratory. (2 words, very unclear) I had to drop the speed to even get that. Maybe someone else can do better.

[@Moongirlgacha_roblox6643]

I like that ash yelled “DINOSAURS”

[@Alexander-ux7yn]

Hey everyone at GT and GTLive, first of all thanks for all the great contend you made. For one of your next game theorys i would like to suggest the game "Voice of the Void". You are recording signals from planets in space and there are a lot of hidden things.

[@rpgrage7711]

I love how analog horror has evolved to the point that we're dealing WITH DINOSAURS NOW lmao

[@DylanAnderson_2011]

I love this

[@connt1nu3]

This is much better than what I was watching. Thank goodness for GTLive!

[@Roblox-uh3et]

I was born in 2008, but once I was between 8-10 I started watching your videos, and fell in love with them. I was no joke crying when you announced that you where leaving your channels.
