#like garrets plane is in the pizzeria in the 80s

If you stand in your room without moving for long enough, the Stitchwraith appears...

StitchlineGames is real, it's Cassidover....

I really dont think ITP is canon to every other fnaf game ever i just think it's a spinoff with a lot of references and answers like Aftons springlock scream put in since it's the anniversary

FNAF Movie parallel Theory/Incoherent Ramblings! (Spoilers ahead.)

Originally, I was gonna give my thoughts on the film but I'm bad at opinions so theory time it is! This is just for fun and to share my thoughts.

I've only seen the film once so I might have misremembered a few things here or there. But there's no harm looking for connections and parallel to the games/books!

Since Mike isn't an Afton... his dad could be a subtle parallel to Henry Emily. Which would make Garett and/or Abby a parallel to Charlie.

Of course, the Schmidt family still has elements of the Aftons. But with all the changes to the lore, the Emily roles could have been added on rather than being non-existent like it seems.

Now, you may be wondering if I'm just desperately digging for any sign of Henry Emily in this film cus he's my favorite character (aside from Michael Afton). And to that I say-

...

Shhhhhhh... Pretend it's not that obvious.

Anywho, let's get to some of these parallels! Shall we?

Aunt Jane… Aunt Jen? Her name being a possible parallel to Henry's sister in the books.

Kinda a weak point here but I'll include it anyways. The Schmidt family is showed to be Christian, evident by Mike remembering them gathered around the table saying grave before eating. "For one of you, the darkest pit of hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep the Devil waiting, old friend."

Mike mentioned that his father couldn't handle the lost of Garret, vaguely implying he took his own life. In both the books and the games, Henry committed suicide due to the lost of his child. Silver Eyes had the Suicide Bot and Pizza Sim had the fire. "I am remaining as well. I am nearby."

Garret's death happened before the Missing Children Incident. In the photo that Vanessa shows with her as a child next to her father as Spring Bonnie, she has the same toy plane Garret had when he taken. Which Mike notices. But, with that photo being at the Pizzeria, it's assumed it's still open during that time. Yet Vanessa mentions the Pizzeria was closed shorty after the 5 children went missing. That photo probably wouldn't exist in that form if the place was dealing with an police investigation and a threat of closure.

During Mike's dream sequences, Garret seems unnervingly calm. Almost as though he went willingly. Yet it wouldn't make sense, out in the middle of a forest, for William to be dressed in the SpringBonnie suit in an attempt to lure him. But, if William was a family friend and trusted by his father, it would be easier to get Garret into his car.

If Garret Schmidt was a random child he abducted and murdered on a mere whim, why would "Steve Raglan" recognize that last name? Unless he saw missing posters, the news of the disappearance, or was keeping track of the viticm's families, why remember that random child you killed back in the 80s? One that wasn't even a part of the Missing Children's Incident at Freddy's?

At the end credits, there's the "COME FIND ME" audio easter egg resembling "SAVE THEM." A minigame heavily linked to the puppet, despite the puppet making no appearance nor having a single mention in the movie.

As for Abby... that springlock suit she was almost suited in looked an awfully lot like Ella, one of Charlie's toys from the books. For a reference to Elizabeth, it could have been a clown or something looking like Circus Baby. But why that possible reference to Ella?

Haven't read Silver Eyes in a a good while, but isn't there a sequence where Foxy is chasing Charlie through an arcade? Where she hides behind one of the arcade cabinets, just like Abby does?

Are these just random references and easter eggs pieced together in an incoherent rambling? Indeed they are, thanks for noticing! But that won't stop me from pointing them out for no one else to read.

dont mind me im just trying to add timestamps to events in the FNAF movie since dates of events are currently left vague (NOT SPOILER-FREE!)

(feel free to correct me if i misremember or got something wrong, or add to it!)

ok some bits that likely will help:

the movie takes place in the year 2000

mike is... 28 years old, right?

he claims he was about 12 when garret was taken

abby is 10

william says the pizzeria was very popular in the 80's

freddy's opened in 1979... i think? idk i might be wrong tbh

vanessa says the missing children incident is the reason the pizzeria shut down

more will probably come down the way but yeah

ok so...

if mike is 28 in the year 2000, that'd mean he was born around 1972. i dont think we know garret's exact age when he was taken but mike was about 12 when it happened, meaning garret's death happened around 1984.

if freddy's opening in 1979 is correct then we can safely assume the place was already running when garret was taken.

when vanessa reveals her secret to mike, she shows him a picture of her child self with william in a pristine-looking springbonnie suit in what appears to be a still open and running freddy's, with garret's toy plane now in vanessa's hands. if the missing children incident is what caused freddy's shutdown then that'd mean: garret was the first victim and taken before the other five kids, as the presence of his plane in an old photo in an open freddy's means it wasn't shut down when he was taken.

william said freddy's was popular in the 80's, which might suggest the latest it could have been shutdown at to be 1989-- though it maybe could have been open into the very early 90's, but likely not enough for it to be memorable against its popularity in the 80's. with garret's death being around 1984, that'd make the missing children incident and og animatronics possession (and the shutdown of freddy's) possible within the span of 1985 to1989 (so mid to late 80's,) give or take. or even 1984 to 1989, if garret's death and the five kids' deaths happening in the same year is possible, with garret's coming first.

by the time the movie takes place (2000,) that'd mean the five missing kids have been dead for at least 11 years to 15 years at most.

while mike is 28 in 2000, abby is 10, meaning she was born when he was 18, in 1990 (SHE'S A 90'S KID YESSSSSS!) with mike being 12 when garret was taken and 18 when abby was born, that puts a gap of 6 years between garret's death and abby's birth-- so no wonder there was no infant abby in mike's recurring dream of the day garret was taken

ok now to try putting this in a more chronological order...

1972- mike is born 1979- freddy's opens 1984- garret is taken/killed anywhere from 1985 to 1989- the five kids are killed and considered missing, possessing the og animatronics, freddy's shuts down as result 1990- abby is born 2000- movie takes place (and mr. cupcake's reign of terror begins)

dont mind me im just trying to add timestamps to events in the FNAF movie since dates of events are currently left vague there-- now corrected based on another different age for mike since it's used as reference for the math at least half the time

This is the second version of it with Mike's age being 25, the first version based on him being 28 is here.

(NOT SPOILER-FREE!)

(feel free to correct me if i misremember or got something wrong, or add to it!)

ok some bits that likely will help:

the movie takes place in the year 2000

mike is apparently 25 and not 28 like i previously thought?

he claims he was about 12 when garret was taken

abby is 10

william says the pizzeria was very popular in the 80's

freddy's opened in 1979... i think? idk i might be wrong tbh

vanessa says the missing children incident is the reason the pizzeria shut down

more will probably come down the way but yeah

ok so...

if mike is 25 in the year 2000, that'd mean he was born around 1975. i dont think we know garret's exact age when he was taken but mike was about 12 when it happened, meaning garret's death happened around 1987.

if freddy's opening in 1979 is correct then we can safely assume the place has already been running when garret was taken.

when vanessa reveals her secret to mike, she shows him a picture of her child self with william in a pristine-looking springbonnie suit in what appears to be a still open and running freddy's, with garret's toy plane now in vanessa's hands. if the missing children incident is what caused freddy's shutdown then that'd mean: garret was the first victim and taken before the other five kids, as the presence of his plane in an old photo in an open freddy's means it wasn't shut down when he was taken.

by the time the movie takes place (2000,) that'd mean the five missing kids have been dead for at least 11 years to 12/13 years at most.

while mike is 25 in 2000, abby is 10, meaning she was born when he was 15, in 1990 (SHE'S A 90'S KID YESSSSSS!) with mike being 12 when garret was taken and 15 when abby was born, that puts a gap of 3 years between garret's death and abby's birth-- so no wonder there was no infant abby in mike's recurring dream of the day garret was taken

ok now to try putting this in a more chronological order...

1975- mike is born

1979- freddy's opens

1987- garret is taken/killed

anywhere from 1987/1988 to 1989- the five kids are killed and considered missing, possessing the og animatronics, freddy's shuts down as result

1990- abby is born

2000- movie takes place (and mr. cupcake's reign of terror begins)
