"Gravity falls isn't over" ah, yes. Stage one of grief: denial.

“That’s a theory for another time” Mat, it’s been 2 years

the way the gravity falls being one of the last film theory’s with mat is crazy

Matpat finally gave us the theory for another time

"Gravity Falls isn't over" Oh Mat Pat, I wish that it were true.

Stan and bill ARE connected because they have the same voice actor lol

Another thing to note is in Season 2 Episode 15 at the very end. Bill is talking about how if he can't control anyone from inside the shack, then he'll take someone from outside the shack and his eye flashes througb all the citizens of Gravity Falls. The odd thing is that it immediately cuts to the upside down face of Grunkle Stan before ending the credits. A little odd if you ask me. Suspcious, even.

I’m very glad other people saw Stan immediately get all his memories back and were also like “Oh… ok?”

I love how Gideon’s backwards message is just him chanting “BACKWARDS MESSAGE!!”

Bill Cipher is the only villain who can believably go from hilarious to outright horrifying.

Easily one of THE best film theories Mat has ever made by far.

The theory holds up all of these years later. I'll miss you Matpat. Way more than someone should miss their internet personality.

Alex hirsch should make a mini series of Ford while he was in the other dimension

Dipper and Mabel’s mom:”so what happened over the summer?” Dipper:”well-“

Can we take a moment to appreciate how terrifying this small fictional universe really is i mean really put yourself in at least one of the characters shoes for a moment

its crazy that ive circled back to the very first film theory i ever watched in my first year of middle school (and im graduating this year)

I have a feeling someone shook Bill's hand at the end of 2019, just saying.

“We’ll Meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when.” “A different form, a different time.” An I the only one that sees the similarities between those lines?

Me and my dad used to watch this when it was coming out, and we loved it. Much better than a lot of shows back then, RIP Dad and I hope you figured out what Bill is doing up there

Just an idea, but perhaps the Axolotl meant reincarnation of some kind? Like full on no memories or abilities. The axolotl also says Bill must redeem himself. What better way to redeem himself than to be reborn as Stanley Pines and defeat his evil "past" self.

Matpat misses gravity falls... BUT HIS AIM IS GETTING BETTER

3 and 1/3 years later and he still hasn’t made the theory about how Stan and bill have been one in the same the whole time.

Another Theory: What if Bill and Stan already made a deal before the Story started. I mean, what if he tried to restore the damage he gave to his brother but couldn't, and he made an agreement with Bill so he could get help while trying to get his brother back, maybe Ford knew about this, maybe that's why he hit Stan. I think this is true, because when Gideon asked Bill to Enter Stan's mind, BILL DID ENTER STANS MIND WITHOUT AN AGREEMENT, WHEN STAN WAS SLEEPING, When you think about it, why would Bill really enter Stan's mind? Maybe because Bill wanted to find The Book 1, the book stan had, to recreate the portal.

6 YEARS AGO??? IM GENUINELY CRYING RN ITS 2024 AND MATPAT HAS JUST POSTED “Goodbye Internet” AND IM WATCHING THIS FOR THE NOSTALGIA PLS SOMEONE HELP.

"Guess that's a theory for another day..." Please Matpat, it's been 5 YEARS

Alex Hirsch: Leaves Disney to work in a project with Fox Disney: Buys Fox

5 years later, still waiting for part 2. God I miss this show...

6 YEARS LATER WE FINALLY GOT OUR EXTRA THEORY

Imagine if a new season just dropped on Disney+.

"Misses home and cant return says hes happy hes a liar" oh my poor poor depressed dorito.

The show itself never ends. I’m saying this because who led Stan to go to the cave anyways? The show repeats, Bill cipher gets destroyed, comes back and then leads Stan to the cave to try do it again

This video was so insanely eye opening that i had to watch it again. crazy how you are able to figure out these kind of things. bravo

Bill cypher is honestly one of the best villains created of the past decade, up their with thanos. So underrated

A cool note: In the Axlotl's couplet, he says he ''watches from birch trees'', and Ford fell asleep in a forest of birches with knots on them looking like eyes, and while he is asleep he meets Bill for the first time. Just thought it was a cool detail.

Also note that in the final episode, Bill Cipher says, "Don't you realize that you're destroying your own mind two?!" That could just him saying Stan's mind is going to be erased. Or is it more...

i have a theroy that while bill isn’t dead, he isnt a threat anymore either. i believe that he instead lives inside stan’s mind, tormenting him whenever he has the chance (most likely when he’s sleeping) but that’s all he can do, bill will desperately try to make a deal for stan to get him out of his mind but stan knows better…and bill will be forced to live the rest of his existence in the grunkles mind.

when you were talking about how Bill cipher can copy peoples voices, he doesn't just copy Blendin. He also copies Soos's voice in dreamscapers. Also, nobody seems to notice Bill's voice when he was controlling Dipper, meaning he was probably copying his voice as well, but only Dipper could hear the real Bill cipher

It’s 2019 and I’m still waiting for part 2

2024 veterans comment only

3:57 damm that's an attention of detail of the CC

Dippers mom: “what did you do this summer?” Dipper: “we killed a Dorito in stans mind.” Dad: “That’s nice…” Mable: “GRAPPLING HOOK” I made a new part after 9 months

"In a different form, in a different time" *Oh yeah, it's all coming together*

To add on to the fact where Stan refers to the same wording like "sixers" it says "a different form a different time" meaning that he could've been forced as Stan into the past so he relived Stan's life setting EVERYONE up to succeed

Who’s watching in 2024

It’s 2020, Weirdmaggedon is basically happening, and we still don’t have that second Gravity Falls theory

This show will live down as one of the best show in history.

Plot twist: matpat is actually controlled by Bill Cypher but saying otherwise so we don't think he is

If anyone was curious about what Gideon said when he was speaking backwards, he literally said "backwards message" multiple times.

“Bill Cipher, evil dorrito of Gravity Falls” *The most accurate description I have heard in my entire life*

**makes gravity falls theory** **gets 1 billion views**

Its been 6 years since the video came out i wish we got more Gravity Falls with Bill Cipher

IT’S ALMOST 2024 AND WE’RE STILL WAITING FOR PART 2. PLEEEEEEASE MATPAT IT’S BEEN 7 YEARS

Technically Bill's last words was also "Stanley," and then him screaming when he gets punched.

Someone: speaks in reverse Gravity falls fans: You know the rules and so do I

Bill really is an evil Dorito now that I think about it.

It’s 2024 and matpat is leaving

Also I noticed that in the AXOLOTL riddle thing he says “Different form, Different time” This shows that when Bill Cypher sings well meet again the line “Don’t know where don’t know when” really implies that Bill Cypher doesn’t know when he’s comeback or where but he will

In Gravity Falls, the prophecy was when all the people joined hands and defeated Bill. But since they never really did that, the prophecy was never fulfilled. Also, in the episode a tale of two stans, stanley's mother is seen carrying a child. Maybe a sibling?

Now i am almost sure that Bill Cipher is a cat from Rick and Morty. Best regards :D

Man I would love a rundown on how Grunkle Stan was actually Bill Cipher's "different form" from a "different time"... Funny how he absolves his crime by ending his own reign of terror.

WE'LL MEET AGAIN, DON'T KNOW WHERE, DONT KNOW WHEN, OH I KNOW WE'LL MEET AGAIN SOME SUNNY DAYYYYYY

In both of the “Enie meanie miney you” scenes, both Stan and Bill chose Dipper

After rewatching the whole thing on Disney+ (thank you random special interest reawakening), this seems highly likely, actually. In fact… I kinda wanted to point a couple other things out about this theory- both from the same episode. So, the Mayor Election episode… You guys know the one. The one where Stan runs for mayor (and loses because of a hilariously long criminal record). When the Pines Twins tell Stan that they were mind controlling him, he didn’t seem all that phased by the fact he was mind controlled. He was more upset by the fact that it was Ford’s invention helping him win (he was still mad at Ford in general after the reveal episode). When they tested the product on Soos, Soos had a more reasonable reaction to doing and saying things unwillingly. We’d have expected this sort of thing from Stan too, but he didn’t react that way. It’s an interesting detail if we say- hypothetically- this theory is true, and that Bill really is still trapped in his head. Ok- for context on what I mean here, in case I’m misinterpreting MatPat’s conclusion, Bill could be resurrected in Stan’s mind when Stan was still young, hence the “a different time” bit. That would mean the whole show is one big loop that constantly repeats yadda yadda you get the point. Anyway, detail 2: Giddeon in that same episode. When Giddeon possesses Bud, he also speaks backwards. If speaking backwards only relates to Bill/Stan, then what if the mind control spell Giddeon uses is the same one Bill uses to get inside people’s heads? I mean- we don’t see Bill chanting anything when he does the same thing- but “Spooky Evil Spells” being repeated five times backwards by Giddeon? I might be jumping the gun here, but something tells me that Bill invented a way for mortals to do what he does and wrote it in Ford’s book. It makes me wonder if it was him trying to predict what was going to happen to him and he was trying to prepare himself for being trapped in a mortal body. Just a thought, really.

its 2024 and i still waiting for season 3

Bill in season one:I know lots of things Bill in season two: doesn’t know how to get out of gravity falls (Edit:thx for all the likes)

me: man i kinda miss gravity falls UKposts: *puts this video in recommended* me: UKposts has finally made me proud

Stanley: *sitting there asleep on his knees* Ford: *blasting him right in the dam face*

It's 2023 and I'm still waiting for part 2

Also bill and stan are *BOTH* voiced by *ALEX HIRSCH* Edit: also, since Alex Hirsch voice acts some other characters, let me tell you what connects to them. Most of the people he voice acts are the people who speak in *reverse.* And he voice acts most magical creatures. Why do *most* magical creatures exist?? Because of Bill. Second edit: Soos became a zombie. I figured that zombies exist because of Bill.

Sooo.........do I still keep my job.....or??....

I have watched this series thousands of times. Never gets old.

I remember watching this video, and just had to come back

Alex Hirsch said he left it off in a way that he can pick it up again if he ever needs to

We need to acknowledge how talented Alex Hirsch is, not only did he CREATE the show, write several spin-off books, and set up a worldwide scavenger hunt, but he also voices 4 very distinct characters and others! He voices Stan, Bill, Soos and McGuckett (he also voices Schmebulock who is not a main character but I still love)

I have a theory, When bill cipher says his backward message. It really means that he will come back another day. Like how he mentions that he'll meet again some sunny day. It could be possible that after he was wiped off, He could have went into a different dimension. And it could also explain what bill has been doing before Gideon Summoned him

If I went to see the cipher statue, I think I would shake his hand

I feel like Alex Hirsh is mocking us with the amount of evidence he gives for this theory. Like this is 110% canon.

It is shown in the series on multiple occasions that Stan is the only one who cannot be tricked. This is why he's the best person to keep Bill inside his mind, not allowing him to escape or to trick him to do something. He keeps bill trapped and taking care of the others until the end of his life. What a hero.

Maybe the only reason Stan wanted to bring his brother back is for Bill to shake his hand

I love how the entire fandom just takes this as fact

This genuinely creeped me, everything about Bill does

I, personally really like Bill as a character even though he's a villain . Edit: I wrote this a year ago!!! 3.3k likes????WTF???

NOW would be a great time for a part 2

It’s 2023 almost 2024 and I waiting for pt 2

MatPat, I feel betrayed... you didn't thank us for watching.

"Quit it Waddels, I'm trying to remember my life story here." One of my favorite lines another one of my favorites is "GRAPPLING HOOK!!" I love Gravity Falls.

2024 still waiting for part 2

2023 and still waiting for a part 2. And funny story now because of me watching gravity falls so many times I answer phone calls saying"yellow?" And instead of saying goodbye, I say "reality is an illusion. The universe is a hologram buy gold" and then I hang up and it's hilarious and it gets everyone every time. It's amazing. Edit 1: 2024

“A different form, a different time.” A different time... which could either be talking about Bill taking over Stan in the future, or it could be referencing the fact that Bill is controlling Stan at night-a different time.

We need an updated theory. If you think about it. King, from owl house, is played by Alex hersh using the same voice as bill, but without the synth eco.

Bill is like one minute yall are chilling and then he sets you on fire 🔥

A different form - Stanley A different time - night time

Grunkle Stan also wears an eyepatch when he's showing tourists around the Mystery Shack, making it look like he only has one eye. Just like Bill Cipher.

This makes tier second victory against him look even more hackneyed. "Why is this body moving slowly?" Bill would obviously been told what sleep is and its purpose

It's 2024 and I am still waiting for the 2nd season 😭😭

“A-X-O-L-O-T-L” they predicted minecraft update

"Reality isn't real" Me after three videos on Markiplier is not real : *oh*

Bill cipher may very well be Stan, if it says a different form AND *a different time* more importantly. When bill invoked Axolotls name, he could’ve been transported into Stan, but not in the future, but rather in the past.

It’s 2023 and I’m waiting for the finale to this series

It’s been 10 years since Gravity Falls came out, 6 since it finished, and the fans still can’t process that the show has ended.
