15 Fan Theories That Actually Kinda Make Sense

11. Peter Parker can make himself dope costumes because his radiation-based powers including super-sewing

As stated in the title, something people constantly bring up as a plot hole of sorts with most incarnations of the character is how he can both create and easily repair high quality costume as a teenager with likely no other experience in sewing or costume production/design in general. I think a solution to this is that the bite gave him another power; seamstress skills on par that of a spider spinning its own webs. This could also be spun (pun intended) to apply to how he knows how to easily produce non-organic webbing.

EDIT: A lot of people are saying this doesn’t need an explanation because him being poor would probably give him experience in sewing, or how over the years he would probably improve and get costumes the quality of the Spider-Man PS4 suit as an example, but I meant this as an explanation more towards the universes like the Raimi one for example, where his first ever costume is an INSANELY high quality outfit with raised webbing and the like, that an 18 year old with sewing experience gained mostly from having to repair old clothes ABSOLUTELY could not make. In other universes, like the MCU, where their first suit looks like it WAS made by a teenager with some sewing experience, I wouldn’t say this is the case.

12. There’s a secret meaning behind Arthur’s dance moves in Joker

“I want to start by pointing out the moments we see dancing in this movie.

At the beginning of the movie, Arthur is a guy searching for identity. Specifically, he wants to be a comedian and wants to be on Murray Franklin’s show. One of the first things we see Murray do is dance when he makes his entrance to the stage.

When Arthur kills the guys in the subway, he hides in a public bathroom and does a dance. But this dance is slow, unenthusiastic, almost sad. He’s trying to express something that he doesn’t quite understand. Like he found a hint of who he wants to be but he’s not quite there yet. He was pushed into killing those guys in the subway, so he’s not fully in control.

Arthur then tries to dance with his mother, but she refuses saying she wants to go to bed. This is Arthur trying to mix his old identity (Arthur the son) with his newfound persona that’s beginning to grow in him. His mom’s rejection is a hint that he can’t have both. He will either dance alone or not dance at all.

At the end of the movie, he murders his mother in the hospital and he dances a bit while painting his hair green. This dance is a bit more upbeat, but it’s not really that expressive. Just a couple of new dance moves. Maybe it’s because he’s busy painting his hair, or maybe the bathroom was too cramped… or maybe there’s just something else missing.

Then he murders Randall in his apartment. This leads to his now famous dance on the stairs. Upbeat, enthusiastic, even a bit sexy (with the humping), completely authentic and expressive. This is him fully embracing his Joker identity. Killing his mother didn’t quite do it because that was still a reaction to all the abuse he received from herKilling Randall, though he could’ve justified it as revenge for what he said about the gun, was Arthur’s first unprovoked murder. A truly chaotic action. A classic Joker move. This dance is him symbolically entering the “world’s stage” as the Joker, the same way his TV idol does.

Then he goes on the show, dancing as he enters, and show his chaos to the world.”

13. “Werner Herzog’s character in The Mandalorian is actually [a] long-lost Jedi Master”

“The Client,”, played by Werner Herzog, is one of the more intriguing characters introduced in The Mandalorian thus far, and while this villain’s backstory remains quite a mystery, we are given a number of clues that may open the door for some interesting theories.

Here I will speculate on one such possibility– that The Client’s secret, hidden identity is actually that of long-lost Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas!

Before delving into the various reasons this could be true, a quick refresher on the historical importance of the infamous Sifo-Dyas within Star Wars canon…”

14. Loki sacrificed himself in Avengers: Infinity War to save Thor from Thanos’s snap

“When I watched Infinity War the first time, that scene bothered me. Loki just watched Thanos absolutely body Thor and Hulk, and yet he thinks he can just stab Thanos in the throat and kill him? It’s absurd, and Loki’s supposed to be a fairly smart, conniving character. He’s capable of thorough illusions, and teleportation magic per Thor: Ragnarok. There’s no reason to do such a stupid and useless assassination scheme. Even if Loki does kill Thanos, Thanos’ Children will just immediately kill him and Thor, and even reformed Loki’s still only really concerned about his family, not the wider galaxy as a whole.

But Loki’s worked with Thanos before. He’d know about Thanos’ rule of killing half the population. Loki might be reasoning that if he forces Thanos to kill him, Thanos would feel obligated to leave the only other royal Asgardian alive.”

And now a very special theory as a treat for those who made it this far…

15. Every time Emperor Palpatine uses force lightning he has an orgasm…!?

“Every time Palpatine force lightnings, it’s in a situation of dominance where he is full of powerful male sexual confidence. He laughs in ecstatic joy and it seems to give him immense pleasure when he shoots the lighting from his fingers. In every instance, you could replace it with a r*pe and it would match the emotions of both doer and receiver the same.

I have become convinced this is because Palpatine’s dark power comes from applying intense orgasmic sexual energy to his hate.

I give special proof to this that once he starts his lighting, it acts much like an erection at the moment of splooging. He enters a trance- like state and can no longer control himself. Even in instances where it is redirected back onto himself, he cannot stop. Just like an orgasm at the point of climax. He just keeps going in ecstasy like a man at climax. The orgasm has to finish once started. He completely looses control.

Furthermore, the Sith derives his or her power from emotional strength, and the greatest emotional experiences are sexual ones.

Therefore force lighting is a sexual experience for Palpatine, and this is the secret to his power. The Jedi renounce emotions and have to reply on concentration and focus. The Sith rely on emotion, and so Palpatine – once he discovered how to overlap sexual energy with his hate – unlock unnatural powers of the dark side…. Through sexual orgasmic strength.”
