I felt I should write this lol.
The point of an unreliable narrator is not to trick the audience. The point of an unreliable narrator is to communicate that this narrator cannot be trusted, and encourage the audience to examine the material with a critical eye. The point is to have a different view of events be obvious enough that the audience can start questioning what is said to them.
And also to show that everyone is biased in their perspective.
Anyway I don't think Alex Hirsch is dropping major lore into a book only to say "haha it was all a lie you fell for it!" like some kind of "it was all a dream" hack of an ending.
#gravity falls#the book of bill#bill cipher#tbob#I've seen some wild theories going around because of a few discrepancies in the art style??#and the theories seem to benefit only those who don't like the lore drops in the book#which fair but I don't think Hirsch is trying to retcon everything he presented through some sneaky art errors#like that would just make for a weaker story#the only thing THAT adds is that Bill is a liar which we all know
