So I went back and rewatched all of the Hachetfield stuff, and now I have some ✨questions✨ and also possible ✨theories✨

(I don't know how much has been talked about before in theory circles, so go easy on me if these are widely accepted theories or questions that have been answered a million times before)

1- The LiB and their altars

Ok, so first off we know there are 5 black altars and 5 LiB- it only makes sense that each altar was dedicated to one LiB in particular- but can be used as a general altar if the need calls for it.

I believe we can determine which altar belongs to which LiB by where that Lord showed up first in the series.

So Pokey's altar is the Starlight Theater, Wiggly's was the old mill (now Lakeside Mall), and Tinky's was The Gazette (in Time Bastard, we learn the Gazette eventually turns into CCRP- Paul and Ted's workplace), Nibbly's is the Waylon place, and Blinky's is Hachetfield High.

I'm pretty sure Nibbly's is the Waylon place because in Honey Queen, the CotSC bring Linda to the middle of nowhere for her to be possessed by Nibbly. I'm gonna run under the assumption that the Church would almost certainly bring her to one of the altars for such an important ceremony- but none of the other altars fit such an out-of-the-way description.

I also think that Blinky would LOVE the drama that goes on behind the scenes of a Hachetfield High, and something about him having an amusement park also tells me that he may enjoy watching drama between children more than he does adults.

2- Grace Chastity may have a touch of "the gift"

My main reasons for thinking this comes from Abstinence Camp and NPMD.

First, Grace was able to get the ax-man to turn on Jerry and Jeri after a single conversation. The ax-man also gave her his ax as a symbol of passing the torch to her to protect the woods. I don't think that would have happened without a little intervention.

Secondly, after the scene with Richie's death, Grace wakes up and says she saw Max- looking angry and not hot at all- and while I do believe it was mainly played for laughs, SHE STILL SAW HIM. I don't know if it *was* just a dream, but dreams have been used as shorthand for having "the gift" before, and I don't believe in coincidence with these shows.

I don't think she has a strong version of "the gift" but I do believe that it's enough that her having the black book will end up being a problem for everyone else.

3- Was the "ghost" of Ethan really a ghost?

This one may seem strange, but Ethan died pretty violently in BF- and he was also at an altar when it happened. That vision Hannah saw of him- was it just a puppet of Wiggly, or was it a little closer to what Max is?

Is Max just more powerful because he made a more violent promise as his last words?

4- The entirety of season 2 is the same timeline

This one is pretty self-explanatory, but the main gist is that, if it happened in season 2, then it falls on one timeline in the Hachetfield saga.

Yellow Jacket is the last event in this timeline, and it starts with Perky's Buds.

Every story in this timeline mentions the Honey Festival. While at the Honey Festival, we get clear signs that things tie together.

In PB- Ziggs is making the pin-up girl specifically to be their mascot to present at the festival.

In AC- I'm pretty sure Steph says that she's going to miss the Honey Festival

HQ- this one is obvious.

Daddy- the mother says she's going to pick up a new father from the Honey Festival- she comes back with Ted.

KT- Ted and the mother flirting. Zoey's roommate asking for something that will ruin Zoey's voice.

YJ- young Sherman sitting on the counter at toy zone.

That's most of them for now- I have other thoughts, but none want to come to me rn. I may update this later with more.

Hello. Regarding DR1 box office we know it won't be a billion $. I would want to know if they'll blame lack of IMAX screens. Or maybe they'll turn inwards and see that DR1 story-line was not as tight as they thought. I know everyone expected it to be another major hit from TC but something didn't feel right with DR1 audience. I know the budget was huge but that shouldn't be a problem, not with how critics and public acknowlegde TC - the last movie star. So something else was in the wrong doing.

Hi! I think it's the combination of factors really.

It's a Part One of the seventh film in the franchise. It was never gonna be a big hit no matter the story just because it's a two partier and general audiences would rather watch Barbie or Oppenheimer or Sound of Freedom where you don't need to have watched 6 other films to get the grasp of the story. I know McQ always says that it's not necessary to watch other films in the franchise but imagine yourself a casual moviegoer you'd probably think if that's a seventh film i need to watch at least one-two that were made before that. I've seen ppl on Twitter doing either rewatches or just starting to watch films in the franchise to "prepare" for DR1.

The release date. They were in the tight spot obviously with the strikes looming hence the actors not being able to promote the film if they postponed it to a later date. But it did release basically in the most crowded month of summer with as you mentioned loosing IMAX screens just a week after being in the theaters. Whoever set this release date obviously overestimated the new Indiana Jones movie (same demographic as DR) and underestimated Barbie and Oppenheimer. Females showed up for Barbie and Oppenheimer got those older male audience that goes in the theater once a year (not saying just them for either movie but you get what I'm saying about the target viewer).

The WOM. In case of DR1 the WOM was not as overwhemingly positive as for Fallout and RN. Even though the critics favoured it there were bits here and there (and quite seizabe amount of articles about THAT plot) that indicated it's a good movie but maybe not a great movie. As you said the story not as tight as the previous two-three films hence the WOM.

The promotion. "Barbenheimer" had much more loud promotion than DR1 even though all the promo was cut short due to the strike. DR1 is still circulating those 3 clips with the stunts (the motorbike jump, the train crash and the fiat chase) on social media that they released well several months ago. The stunts always worked for them but I think going in the most crowded month their promo strategy should have been more creative (don't ask me how, they have people for that:).

That being said the movie is still doing fine, in the Mission film numbers, tracking a little behind RN in global BO. So going against many factors not all of them related to the story the film is still making money and will break even.
