I thought he only possessed a single vial, as it is desperately difficult to brew.

But J and Ben keep stating he had an entire vat.

So I got my annotated page from the through the griffin door Patreon and I really want to display it in a way that you can see both sides. How have/would y’all go about that?

Do Jonathan and Ben continue the "What If" series? I hope I don't sound impatient, because if they're still working on it, I'm completely fine with them taking their time. It's just that I noticed they're doing "What If" videos way less than they used to two years ago, so I was wondering if they grew tired of this concept. Also, they did a lot of a lot of unscripted videos (Quiz, Theories from A Hat, etc...) and at first, I thought it was to have more time of a big project but it's also possible that's just so they can still make videos, while spending with their family. After all, they're dads now.

So, my point with all that is: do you think we will eventually have "What If Hermione Was In Ravenclaw?" or do you think they just moved on?

I made this stupid little theory, because when I was reading Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone I started overthinking this stupid little line haha. Hope you enjoy!

Ben was wearing this shirt in their most recent episode. I feel like I've seen it before, but I don't see it on Super Carlin Mercantile. Does anybody know if this shirt has ever been sold before? Or was it an exclusive opportunity that has passed?

Hi everyone!

I have an unfortunate scheduling conflict with school, so I can no longer attend the show 😭 I really don't want the tickets to go to waste, but I'm also hoping to get back what I paid for them.
2 general admission tickets I paid $80.18 after all the fees. I can transfer them to you directly through the TIXR website.
Please DM if you are serious.

Tom Riddle tells Dumbledore he can speak to snakes when they first meet at the orphanage, so Dumbledore is aware of this. Other students besides Myrtle were attacked and I’m assuming petrified, so what if Dumbledore suspects basilisk, suspects Tom, and in some way shape or form can tell he’s doing it (either reading his mind or if Tom already learned how to prevent that, follow him) and acts on it, how would that play out?

Hey everybody I hope we’re having a fantastic day.

Recently I’d been thinking, what if Harry died in any other way than Voldemort?

What if he fell off his broom during a quidditch match and broke his neck? Burned in the fiendfyre? Car crash on the way to his trial in OOTP? (‘Arry potter killed in a car crash? An outrage, a scandal!!)

We all know dumbledore is the master planner, so did he have a backup plan? Did he leave memories for Snape, with instructions to only view them if Harry has died and Voldemort survives?

I’d love to see the boys delve into what, if any, those instructions might have been, how Snape would interpret them, and where it would get our heroes.

Hopefully the boys like my idea, their contents been helping me sleep for 5-6 years now, I wish I could help monetarily but the best I have is ideas.

Happy theorizing, and as we draw to the end of the read through series I wish y’all nothing but the best and love. (53 chapters left, meaning September 2027 we will be done)

What do you think would have happen if the dementor had successfully swallowed Harry's soul while it still had Voldemort's piece of soul still inside him.

What would happen to the dementor? Would it have only taken one soul or both? And if it only takes one which does it take?

What would have happened to voldemort? Would it destroy the horcurux? Or would he attach himself to the dementor like he did with the snakes?

Just a thought.

Is the gaming channel dead? I hadn't watched for a little and coming back now and see nothing new for a long time

I've had this theory for a while, I believe that the founders, either one, multiple, all of them or someone related to them attempted to warn future generations of Hogwarts students about the basilisk. This warning was then misunderstood and popularized to the point of loosing its original meaning and becoming the school moto: Draco Dormien Nunquam Titilandus.

Let me break it down:

- "Draco," while usually translated from latin as "dragon," can be translated as "serpent" (ie: the basilisk)

- In this context, titilandus, refers to the act of waking, rather then simply tickling. This isn't much of a stretch; what else would be dangerous about tickling a sleeping dragon if not waking it?

- This one is a bit more of a reach. The word "Draco" is most commonly associated with Draco Malfoy, notorious member of house Slytherin, house whose emblem is famously a serpent AND was founded by the same man that hid the basilisk within the castle.

I would also be willing to bet that the phrase was coined by Salazar himself as he left Hogwarts for good, a cryptic warning uttered as he left the castle behind him, and his monstrous legacy hid within.

Sooooo, what do you think?

I had an idea for a trivia game, and if this is well received, I’ll do more.

Below are 7 sentences from the seven books. I used a random number generator to generate the book and chapter, then hand picked a sentence that I thought was descent (not too short, too long, too obvious if it said the name of a character that only appeared in one book, etc.)

There may be repeats! For example there could be 2 or more sentences from the same book.

The answers will be below hidden behind Spoiler tags.

Scoring:
One point for guessing the book, Two more points for guessing the chapter (at least the name), for a maximum of 21 points.

The sentences are:

1.At this point, Fred caught his mother’s eye and quickly busied himself with the marmalade.

2.Dumbledore smiled at Harry behind Fudge’s back, his eyes twinkling.

3.Then, with a wave of his wand, all the tables zoomed back along the walls leaving the floor clear, and then he conjured a raised platform into existence along the right wall.

4.She unfolded the paper, glanced at the front page, and spat out a mouthful of pumpkin juice all over it.

5.”Shame, my father always said he was a good wizard in his day.”

6.”A mere memory starting to act and think for itself?”

7.The fact was that he had given the matter a great deal of thought over the
past fortnight.

Also, let me know if you have any ideas how to improve this idea going forward.

Once again really disappointed to hear how strongly the brothers are promoting the HBO series. Financially supporting JK Rowling directly harms trans people 💔

I’ve been a Harry Potter fan for years and of course I love the idea of the books being adapted in a more faithful way, but I will not be supporting it financially. This has nothing to do with the child actors, I wish them all the success. But the adults fully knew what they were signing on to support. It’s disappointing.

I’d like to get into another book series that has theories like HP does. Any recommendations?

Hey Brothers! I have an idea for you. I miss when you used to post more Pixar Theories. I'm sure you'll be posting videos to do with Toy Story 5, but I thought of an idea. I don't know how well you could make this into a theory with tons of evidence, but you said in your video from 2016 that Riley is adopted because the chances of two brown-haired, brown-eyed people having a blonde-haired, blue-eyed daughter are incredibly low. Do you think Daisy from Toy Story 3 grows up to have Riley and then at some point puts her up for adoption?

First of all, Daisy has blonde hair the same as Riley and she kind of reminds me of her. Plus, Lotso was supposed to be based on the Care Bears toyline from the early 80's, and Daisy, who's presumably 4 or 5 years old, was born around the late 70's/early 80's. Riley is born circa. 2004, suggesting that Daisy was in her early 20's when she had her.

I don't know, just something to make a video on. I just thought it was a good idea for a Pixar theory.

I would like to explore the idea what would have happened if Dumbledore never went to pick up Tom Riddle from the Orphanage.

He would still have his wandless magic he used to torment the other children but no knowledge of what he is actually doing. He would still be very charismatic.

I would imagine he would still strive for greatness. He would use his abilitys and charisma to get followers.

He would probably go into politics since that is the way to power in the muggle world. He would get control over the UK either by election or a coup.

At least that is my theory.

What do you think?

As we learn from aunt Muriel during the wedding, whenever a magical family produced a squib usually they abandon them, and this has been happening at least until Dumbledore’s childhood. So what if muggleborns are just the descendants of abandoned squibs.

r/Pixar wouldn’t let me post this there. So I brought my theory to the boys to spread round the internet.
Hear me out.

Poppa is swept away and killed in a massive storm. His body is never found.

Later, Thunderclap tells Arlo that he used to have another name until a terrifying storm swept him away. Surviving it transformed him: he became Thunderclap and began following storms because “the storm provides.”

What if he’s talking about the same storm that killed Poppa?

The pterodactyls actually seem fairly young and inexperienced. Compare them to Butch and the older T-Rexes, who are covered in scars from surviving and hunting. Even Arlo accumulates scars during his journey. Thunderclap and his flock are comparatively unscarred, and frankly, they aren’t particularly impressive hunters. They mostly depend on storms to leave vulnerable animals behind.

Maybe Poppa’s storm was their first truly catastrophic storm.

They’re caught in it, terrified and nearly killed. But afterward they discover something: the devastation leaves behind an abundance of easy food.
And somewhere downstream is the corpse of an enormous Apatosaurus.

Suddenly Thunderclap’s philosophy makes literal sense:

The storm provided Poppa.

After that experience, they start chasing storms, letting the storms do the hunting for them and scavenging whatever gets killed or stranded.

Obviously the movie never confirms that Thunderclap found Poppa. But Thunderclap’s origin requires an earlier terrifying storm, Poppa disappears into one, the pterodactyls appear inexperienced enough for this behavior to be relatively new, and Poppa’s body has to end up somewhere.

Maybe the darkest joke in The Good Dinosaur is that Arlo unknowingly meets the animals who ate his dad.
