How do you feel about Bill Cipher as a villain? Let us know! THUMBNAIL ART BY JANKYBONES: jankybones.tumblr.com/ twitter.com/bonejanky instagram.com/bonejanky/ th-cam.com/channels/VJKCFSCUnkkeAQk0w090oA.html
Explains why he went full on psycho, given his genius and way of thinking. The guy was basically Rick Sanchez in an entire dimension filled with only Jerry Smiths.
@@thefireman17492 after re-watching all of gravity falls, in weirdmageddon part 2, he does say he is from the 2nd dimension but when he was first summoned in episode s1e21 he says "oh boy, gravity falls it is good to be back" meaning he has been to gravity falls and in the third dimension beforehand. Perhaps he is from the 2nd dimension but got brought to the third dimension and gravity falls by the UFO that landed in gravity falls attracting it's weirdness. he could have then been sent to the 4th dimension by the creatures in gravity falls because he is a maniac. Everything he can do would be normal in the fourth dimension.
Fun Fact: In Bill's AMA, when asked about his world he references Edwin Abbot, who is the author of the novel "Flatland" That novel takes place in a world of 2D shapes with a very strict and opressive social structure, triangles being kind of low in the social hierarchy. It works pretty well, it's everything that Bill hates and what could have led to his obsession with freedom, wanting to erradicate every single law and restriction possible, including laws of physics.
I haven't read the book but I know somethings including the fact that triangles kind of only out rank 'lines' and maybe there's sub-sections of the shape hierarchy so some triangles are 'above' others. Anyway he basically was only above what could generously be called a class of trophy wives [not arguing, hopefully adding perspective for fellow "didn't read the source material" people]
I read a fanfiction that takes the themes from flatland (even directly referencing it many times) and expands on Bill's backstory, it's honestly a great story. It also gives Bill a bit more character, he risks his life for his friends by directly insulting timebaby in the fanfiction. Not for himself, but to free his friends. Aaaannnd then he destroys his world and pushes away everyone that doesn't agree with him... Still somewhat of a character development.
Half the universe. Infinity Gems don't work outside their native universe, though Doctor Strange was able to salvage some, so that weird "totally not Crisis on Infinite Earths" universe could have a working infinity gauntlet. Speaking of Crisis on Infinite Earths, the Anti-Monitor destroyed nearly the entire multiverse.
Conspiracy theory: Gravity Falls is based on real life and Disney is just releasing the secrets of the government. But since they did it in as a show, the government didn't act on it.
I always liked the theory that Bill's new form he took was as stan, never truly remembering his orgin but keeping a lot of the same personality, plus just the weird connection between the end of the big mystery hunt and the clip of Stan singing the same song bill does where the lyrics are like "we'll meet again some sunny day"
I never realized that the reason Bill's plan to trick Mabel worked so well because he had infinite tries. Even though he's a master manipulator, he probably travelled back a few times until he could catch Mabel at her lowest emotional point and use the EXACT words she needed to hear.
@@Tatertottwentyseven the reason bill takes it seriously is because if he doesnt, hes probably going to say something in an offer that could be taken a different way than intended, giving someone an advantage over bill. so he'd rather make sure he knows exactly whats happening
yeah its become over use in my oppion I want to see characters who act like this "The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood." "When you want to fool the world, tell the truth." or something like that but like can we get something esle like a villians redemption and when he was finnaly forgiven he got killed or something like that but Disney also again my oppion lost its charm over the years remakes upon remakes and mistakes of nature like frozen 2 WHY CANT WE HAVE THE MOIVE WHEN THE VILLIAN WINS mmmmm AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Except Thrawn, Pride and Arrogance don’t take him down. He does not even get outsmarted. It’s just, who would bring a space whale to a gun fight. Thrawn is epic!
"When gravity falls and earth becomes sky, fear the beast with just one eye." In It's Gonna Get Weird (a cut song Bill sings during Weirdmaggedion) Bill sings "Gravity's a lie, so is the sky. Trust in the all seeing, all knowing eye." This is the best callback ever and it isn't even in the show.
That song absolutely slaps, I'm so sad they didn't put it in. Neil Cicierga really popped off with it, and it would've tied Weirdmageddon together so well!
Or it could have to deal with the fact that the Sky during Weirdmageddon only changes in Gravity falls, but if Bill was successful, than the entire sky would be red
According to flatland which is canon for what bills universe was like, a lot of shapes were killed for being irregular and were discriminated against which makes sense why bill hates rules so much. A deciphered code from bill in journal 3 states “rules are perversions against all will” so maybe he did have a somewhat twisted reason for what he does
(Speaking five months late on this) Wow, that’s a cool idea. Dream catchers are supposed to ward off nightmares and Bill Cipher is the greatest nightmare of them all.
I just realized: A live-action Gravity Falls movie would be TERRIFYING! Imagine the scene where Bill takes physical form, with the muscle and sinew forming from a formless creature of untold power. It would be awesome!
You would loose so much of what makes gravity falls good in live action. Animation is meant to be a special medium to display unique ideas that you wouldnt make in live action. The trend of turning beloved animated work into live action film hurts the animation industry and creates a sense of the industry having "moved on" from 2D
Fun fact: Bill actually didn't go back on his deal with Dipper because when the laptop was broken it reveled the Magucket labs logo giving the hint that Dipper needed thus completing his end of the deal
The fact that in a copy of journal 3, one page in particular scared me to death. Sumthin about bill still in dippers body, jumping off the water tower so dipper can't get back in his own body and be stuck in the mind scape forever. Man if mabel didn't got that book back in sock opera..
Dipper would have been screwed and mabel would have lost her brother forever thanks to Bill in other words it's a bit dark when you think about it Bill would have made dipper commit suicide to get rid of him or pine tree as he referred to him as
“Sixty degrees that come in threes. Watches from within birch trees. Saw his own dimension burn. Misses home and can’t return. Says he’s happy. He’s a liar. Blame the arson for the fire. If he wants to shirk the blame. He’ll have to invoke my name. One way to absolve his crime. A different form, a different time.” -Axolotl
Sixty degrees that come in threes = triangles angles are 60 degrees each Watches from within birch trees = in the last episode at the ending when Mabel says you wore your goodbye sweater we can see bills hand from behind a tree Saw his own dimension burn = well I mean he burnt it. Not much to say here Misses home and can't return = since he burnt his dimension he can't make it back but he is regretting it Says he's happy he's a liar = he again is regretting burning the dimension Blame the arson for the = blame him, he did it If he wants to shirk the blame = he wants to pin it on someone else kinda more on that later He'll have to invoke my name = in his final words reversed he says "A-X-O-L-O-T-L my time has come to burn! Invoke the ancient power so that I may return! One way to absolve his crime, A different form a different time: Too free himself from the guilt he must be reborn. A fresh start. Now I think he came back as Stan Pines, but that's my theory take it with a grain of salt.
Gravity Falls Fans when it ended: 2016: season 3 is coming out in 2017! 2017: season 3 has been delayed a year 2018: season 3 is being rewritten 2019: there is still a possibility of a season 3 in 2020! 2020: *BILL IS SECRETLY CONNECTED TO THE OWL HOUSE, PLOT TWIST DIPPER IS A MOUSE, EVERY TREE HAS A SECRET CODE*
Harry Lovatt I know it’s just a joke about HOW EVERY SINGLE YEAR THE THEORISTS GIVE ME A FALSE SENSE OF HOPE SAYING “there is going to be a season 3 next year!”
I have the theory that Bill Cipher's homedimension had a class system like the one shown in Journal 3 in which triangles are low-class. Everyone was just talking about classes and no one was interested in anything else. The flatless and boring conversations drew Bill Cipher who wanted to escape the class system mad. He never wanted to destroy his home dimension but he was so angry at them that he accidently destroyed it. Also, I have the theory that Bill Cipher discovered that they were magical forms, but magic was not allowed. He wanted to change something. But no one in his dimension wanted a change. This also explains why Bill wants to create chaos instead of order. (Because the class system was all about order). This is just my little theory and my explanation why I can't see Bill as a bad person...
As the Axolotl says... "Saw his own dimension burn, Misses home and can't return, Says he's happy, he's a liar, blame the arson for the fire" hmmmm...seems like he regrets burning his home..
I'm just going to post this theory I thought of: Two Timeline Theory Orginal timeline (Weirdmagedon never happens): The events of "D&M vs. The Future" happen but Ford and Dipper are able to seal the rift, skip to 3012 and the Time Baby frozen in ice reaks havoc on the world, skip to 20712 and the events of "Blendin's Game" happen (everything we see in the future in the show is the original timeline), Blendin makes a deal with Bill. Bill goes back in time and changes the timeline. Alternate Timeline (Weirdmagedon happens): Bill/Blendin intercepts Mabel, destroys the rift, and causes Weirdmagedon. Time Baby goes back in time but is distigrated by Bill, reconstitutes in 1000 years leading to two Time Babies in 3012. And the rest happens as we saw.
(Lost Legend) That makes a lot of sense. In the short “Dipper’s Guide to the Unexplained: Mailbox,” it says that the end of the world is in 3012, 1000 years after the events of Gravity Falls.
When you stop to think about it, it's actually Dipper's fault Weirdmagedon happens. You see: Dipper's obsession to Wendy led to them messing with the time machine, which led to Blendin getting in trouble and vowing vengeance, which led to the events of "Blendin's Game", which then led to Bill making a deal with Blendin.
I like to believe that Bill has at least one family member out there somewhere who will continue the plan, and see it through. Therefore bringing Bill back, and the two of them split up to take over the multiverse. It's definitely wishful thinking, but I'm curious about if there's somebody, something related to Bill still alive out there. Edit: Grammar and WOAH, likes and comments! Thanks.
Bill seems a bit strong for a second dimensional being i think he's the 2nd dimensional reincarnation of a deity the zxolotl the exact opposite of the axolotl
Bill's downfall was that he focused so much on the Pines family's weaknesses that he assumed he would be victorious no matter what when in reality, people can work together and come up with a plan combining their strengths.
SEELE (Neon Genesis Evangelion) actually does win. Third Impact happens. Thanos (Marvel Comics) has won on several occasions, but unconsciously sabotages himself because he feels even he is unworthy of Death's affections. DC does this for their big events as well. Hal Jordan does destroy all time for instance.
Bill Cipher, an antagonist, won Weirdmageddon (but was stopped) Bill also likes fire, uses it for part of his power, but a lot of times regrets burning everything in sight to its last molecule for no reason, to the point where it's in a poem. 8-5-18-15-2-18-9-14-5, a protagonist, keeps losing their battles against an antagonist, even though their probably even more overpowered than Bill himself. -Also likes fire, uses it for part of their power, but all the time regrets burning things in sight for no reason, to the point where it's in a song. But, they were told to do this, due to the lyric after, saying why they did that; being forced to hate, and even burn down, their own dimension. Bill, on the other hand, does this on his free will, but also regrets it. Bill seems heartless and sadistic, but probably wasn't/isn't always that way. Who I was talking about seems heartless, but actually is the total opposite, trying to show that they don't want to intentionally hurt others. That's why their best friend (I could go as far as to call them their practical sibling) knows that truth and, like Sans from Undertale, will try to protect, and even get revenge for them. No, please don't go to the conclusion that Bill's the one forcing them to do this, because the song I was talking about gives a *huge* hint to who's responsible. Hope this gives you a new perspective on Bill, 8-5-18-15-2-18-9-14-5, and 5-14-20-9-20-25! Have a nice day you guys!
My headcanon is that is is Stanly. He basically payed for his crimes by stopping himself by defeating himself. I feel like that is the weirdness that his death and reincarnation deserves.

What if Bill's new form was the cat from the new Rick and Morty season that Rick and Morty's dad were afraid of. It would also make sense because Rick and Morty and Gravity Falls have put a bunch of references to eachother inside thier shows.
But jerry said “he was in my home! Where I keep photos of MY family. Why would he want the dumbest person ever. Also why would the bill want to go to Florida why not Oregon?
I like to assume that Bill might've had some form of supernatural abilities in his home dimension, but perhaps because of his powers conflicting with his time in alternate dimensions, it allowed him to have much more control and many more powers than he may have originally had
Yes, he does have. That's why he need the rift to make a connection between his dimension and gravity falls's dimension, his super power maybe normal in that dimension because the law of physics in that dimension allow him to do so, but it is really terrifying in the others
Here’s my idea on bills origin unlike the other shapes in his 2D world he was born with his eye in the centre of his shape therefore he could see the 3D dimension het tried to tell his friends but no one believed him and he was thrown into a mental asylum. A 3D triangle (or Tetrahedron) pulled him out of his 2D world an gave him powers unfortunately his mind had been broken and ended up destroying Flatland
This video answered so many questions for me! The ending of it has me confused though. I have always believed that Bill was still around living within Stan’s head; there is much evidence behind it which is displayed in The Film Theorist’s video titled “Film Theory: Gravity Falls ISN’T OVER!”, which has caused me to believe their statement. Seeing now that there is also evidence behind Bill being reborn into King, and seeing the many hints in Gravity Falls and Owl House’s relation is causing me to grow very curious. Which theory is most accurate? Is it even worth deciding since the show ended years ago and I’m just a huge nerd to still be researching about it? Maybe Gravity Falls continues within Owl House. If so, will the second season answer these questions causing my questions
I was thinking about this and wanted to share it somewhere, and I felt this was a good place, so here goes: If the Anti-Mabel's page on Shmeb-You-Unlocked has a brief description of the rumoured Anti-Bill at the bottom (in code), and if he is real, this means there is at least one alternate version of Bill. How do we know that there aren't more alternate versions of him scattered about the multiverse? (Side note, but the Anti-Bill just interests me. Did he originate in an alternate version of the 2nd dimension, or is he from the same original universe as our Bill? Does our Bill know of his existence? Do the Anti-Pines know of his existence?)
@@electriclizardwizard never mind im not good at spelling so i cant explan my ? im sorry... edit ok i found what u were saying u were talking about the grafic novel im not very smort sorry for wasting your time
So Anti-Bill would be the opposite of the Bill we know? So would that mean he wouldn't be chaotic and rule the universe? Also would be a square instead of a triangle??
BlueFilmsBT Maybe he would be a reversed triangle, like in The Legend of Zelda with Hyrule and Lorule, each realm being represented like a half of a diamond shape (two opposite traingles).
I always thought that Bill was a Deal Demon, and he uses that to get power over the mortals, and the nightmare relam was actually like pergatory or hell
Well, it wasn't necessarily a "psychotic act". I have a feeling Bill didn't have a good relationship with his family because they were cruel to _him._ And since the AXOLOTL said he misses home, I don't think he burned his dimension on purpose. I think he wanted to take over the Pines' dimension because he wanted a place to call home again. It was filled with chaos because that was really the only way he knew how to cope with what he had done. To expand, he did it because he wanted to escape reality and that was the only way he knew how to do it.
After he made the comment about Rick and bill meeting the moment when rick referenced God after his fight with Zeus saying that it would have gone differently makes a lot more sense now.
There is that amazing fanfiction about Bill's origins and it's called "Flat dreams". I highly recomend it and even if it's not canon it is worth giving it a chance. Really makes you think twice. Plus one chapter is just hilarious! But I'm not going to spoil it for people who want to read. Edit: for people who are wondering it's not an x reader shiet or any other ship. Just Bill's origins. I thought that this edit was needed.
Since Bill Cipher comes from the 2nd dimension with a flat world, he technically comes from the same dimension as Doodle Bob, which explains why he was evil.
I like to think that when bill met Rick Sanches to get him to make a portal, Rick was just being an absolute pain, and even Bill got pissed off enough to just give up on Rick
Roundtable: Bill cipher Me: The flying dorito man In a top hat That wants to mix his dimension With ours But Stan pines ate him Because he still at the end of the day was a dorito Edit: 420
Cian Patrick Cornel I have no idea. I just went on to Google Images, types in “bill cipher scary”, and only found fan-art I was aware of, scenes of his insanity directly from the show, and other pieces of fan-art that one may find creepy. That image seems to ring a bell because I feel like I’ve seen it before.
There's also an added layer of "wow" to that family genocide story once you realize that his powers come naturally to him, he might have studied and improved them but a most people in his home dimension could probably do most to all of the things he could. Meaning that they just sat there while the world burned. I imagine it was a last ditch effort to get his family to change, maybe if he pushed them they'd take the leap, when they didnt they died. The axolotl makes it clear that he feels some remorse about burning his home world to the ground. He probably didnt think they would actually let themselves be killed off.
I think Bill is a wonderful villain to the very end. Given how impatient he seemed to be about unleashing weirdmageddon he played the long con beautifully. When he lost ford he was very vigilant on the sidelines. I mean yes he got sloppy towards the end but he didn’t expect gravity falls to keep weirdness in and making him see that he was in yet another prison. Driving him even more insane than he already was. Which is saying something considering he’s probably as old or older than our entire universe and lived in two unbearable hell holes for what felt like an eternity.
@@fffernsw4dl539 yeah a lot of things from the earlier episodes about stan seem to come together the secret room in the mystery shack was sealed off because it was full of images of bill
i still love that connection to Rick and Morty. that Bill tries to manipulate Rick and Rick just probably got bored an just casually erased his encounter With Bill and goes on with his life
*[Oh stars... i wish i was as powerful and fearsome as Bill Cipher... with that kind of power... i'd be unstoppable... and then, the world- No... THE UNIVERSE WOULD BE MINE! NYAHAHAHAHA]*
I started watching gravity falls during quarantine with my family. I'm glad there are still videos being made on it cause me and my siblings have our own theories about it and we notice bill in a lot a lot of places so it's fun seeing others theories and observations as well.
You got to admit, Bill had to be nerfed on many occasions to give the protags a chance to win. Nerfed by creative writing, but imagine a Bill at full capacity and potential and the scary impossibilities he could wreak
Actually there's a theory that Bill, after his defeat in Weirdmageddon, was sent back in time and either possessed Stan or was reincarnated as Stan. There were hints about this dropped during the Gravity Falls mystery hunt thing that happened irl and a statue of Bill was found. I can't remember all the details but MatPat on Film Theory did a video on it
In my opinion bill survived because he became part of stan's memories, so when stan's memories came back, bill came back but he is just trapped in stan's mind now and that's why stan tells us to shake the statue's hand so bill can jump into someone else eventually getting back to his physical body. and since his physical body is still in our dimension, he could open another dimensional rift and eventually destroy the barrier surrounding gravity falls.

Tidbit Thoughts (delicious pieces of information): Alchemy Symbol for Fire = Upright Equilateral Triangle. Primary Colors = In short: Red is a color for passion/desire, hunger, power, and wrath; blue is a color for calm, stability, productivity, and sadness/desolation; yellow is related to acquired knowledge, optimism, egotism, and impulsivity (plus more for all of these colors). Putting all of the primary colors together and rapidly flashing them causes epileptic seizures or extreme amounts of discomfort and discombobulation. Protagonists in cartoons that have been yellow tend to have blue as the principal color for background. This is said to produce a happy, relaxed feeling, which means that Bill's blue and yellow color pairing is like a sedative. It's when he is angry that he shows a bit of his true nature. The red and yellow color pairing has typically been used to stimulate impulsive spending in marketing. It has also been used for subliminal rushes of hunger and a feeling of lacking something that causes anxiety. Yellow would seem like the happiest of colors, but painting a baby's room with it has been associated with more crying. Eye of Providence (aka. All-Seeing Eye) = The eye of God watches over everyone as it's graced by flames or rays of glory (original) or the Illuminati and all of its ties to conspiracy theories (arguably one of the most popular and most well-recognized). Triangle = Most stable shape in geometry. They are used in construction a great deal more than can be realized. Triangles even have their own form of math for how special they are. It is quite funny how Bill is from a flat-dimension in this regard, as the flat triangle transforms into a three-dimensional structure/building. It's almost as if the apocalypse is being started by math and engineering. Dapper Look = The 1800s have been remembered for being the first time the top hat, cane, and bow tie came into fashion as an ensemble. Bill's style of walking, dress, and even a pinch of his voice resembles all of this (--that canon human form of his further supports his style's origins). For the most part, his voice sounds like a car salesman mixed with a casual stand-up comedian. Maybe a slight bit of infomercial, but that's debatable ("I sawed this man in half! -- Repair it with Flesh Tape. Only costs a nickel, journal, and the minds of all meat-bags in Gravity Falls.").
Bill and Rick interacting would just be hilarious they'd both be constantly outdoing each other until Morty throws a deus ex machina at Bill and he dissapears That's what I imagine would happen at least
Meh I think to Rick it wasn’t a big deal seeing as he said “I meet at least 20 people a week that try to kill me, most of them I get drunk with.” I mean think about the reaction he had with the cat. And also because bill looks for people who crave information I don’t think Rick Sanchez aka the smartest thing in the multiverse would be a person he would look for.

That novel takes place in a world of 2D shapes with a very strict and opressive social structure, triangles being kind of low in the social hierarchy.
It works pretty well, it's everything that Bill hates and what could have led to his obsession with freedom, wanting to erradicate every single law and restriction possible, including laws of physics.
Who voted on the laws of physics
I haven't read the book but I know somethings including the fact that triangles kind of only out rank 'lines' and maybe there's sub-sections of the shape hierarchy so some triangles are 'above' others. Anyway he basically was only above what could generously be called a class of trophy wives [not arguing, hopefully adding perspective for fellow "didn't read the source material" people]
I read a fanfiction that takes the themes from flatland (even directly referencing it many times) and expands on Bill's backstory, it's honestly a great story. It also gives Bill a bit more character, he risks his life for his friends by directly insulting timebaby in the fanfiction. Not for himself, but to free his friends.

Anyone else notice a recurring theme with a lot of Disney villains downfall being their pride and arrogance
Aslo pennywise to
Pride goeth before a fall
yeah its become over use in my oppion I want to see characters who act like this "The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood." "When you want to fool the world, tell the truth." or something like that but like can we get something esle like a villians redemption and when he was finnaly forgiven he got killed or something like that but Disney also again my oppion lost its charm over the years remakes upon remakes and mistakes of nature like frozen 2 WHY CANT WE HAVE THE MOIVE WHEN THE VILLIAN WINS mmmmm AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Yes
Except Thrawn, Pride and Arrogance don’t take him down. He does not even get outsmarted. It’s just, who would bring a space whale to a gun fight. Thrawn is epic!
"When gravity falls and earth becomes sky, fear the beast with just one eye."
In It's Gonna Get Weird (a cut song Bill sings during Weirdmaggedion) Bill sings "Gravity's a lie, so is the sky. Trust in the all seeing, all knowing eye."
This is the best callback ever and it isn't even in the show.
That song absolutely slaps, I'm so sad they didn't put it in. Neil Cicierga really popped off with it, and it would've tied Weirdmageddon together so well!

Or it could have to deal with the fact that the Sky during Weirdmageddon only changes in Gravity falls, but if Bill was successful, than the entire sky would be red
According to flatland which is canon for what bills universe was like, a lot of shapes were killed for being irregular and were discriminated against which makes sense why bill hates rules so much. A deciphered code from bill in journal 3 states “rules are perversions against all will” so maybe he did have a somewhat twisted reason for what he does
Theory: people created dreamcatchers because of bill lurking in their dreams
(Speaking five months late on this)
Wow, that’s a cool idea. Dream catchers are supposed to ward off nightmares and Bill Cipher is the greatest nightmare of them all.
On the Bill Cipher Reddit AMA he says they ‘tickle’.
I just realized: A live-action Gravity Falls movie would be TERRIFYING! Imagine the scene where Bill takes physical form, with the muscle and sinew forming from a formless creature of untold power. It would be awesome!
I've been picturing this for months! If I had enough friends I want to reenact an episode (that doesn't have to much effects) and post it on youtube
Oof what if Jason Ritter was actually Dipper...it would be weird because his face doesn't match Dipper's voice at all lmao
It's like trying to adapt lovecraft
You would loose so much of what makes gravity falls good in live action. Animation is meant to be a special medium to display unique ideas that you wouldnt make in live action. The trend of turning beloved animated work into live action film hurts the animation industry and creates a sense of the industry having "moved on" from 2D

I Agree with This Sentiment
I have an axolotl!
i feel bad for him but yet so intrigued
the fact that its a fucking axolotl of all things
Sixty degrees that come in threes = triangles angles are 60 degrees each
Watches from within birch trees = in the last episode at the ending when Mabel says you wore your goodbye sweater we can see bills hand from behind a tree
Saw his own dimension burn = well I mean he burnt it. Not much to say here
Misses home and can't return = since he burnt his dimension he can't make it back but he is regretting it
Says he's happy he's a liar = he again is regretting burning the dimension
Blame the arson for the = blame him, he did it
If he wants to shirk the blame = he wants to pin it on someone else kinda more on that later
He'll have to invoke my name = in his final words reversed he says "A-X-O-L-O-T-L my time has come to burn! Invoke the ancient power so that I may return!
One way to absolve his crime, A different form a different time: Too free himself from the guilt he must be reborn. A fresh start.
Now I think he came back as Stan Pines, but that's my theory take it with a grain of salt.

There wont be a season 3 what are u talking about?
Harry Lovatt I know it’s just a joke about HOW EVERY SINGLE YEAR THE THEORISTS GIVE ME A FALSE SENSE OF HOPE SAYING “there is going to be a season 3 next year!”
The season 3 might be the owl house
I have the theory that Bill Cipher's homedimension had a class system like the one shown in Journal 3 in which triangles are low-class. Everyone was just talking about classes and no one was interested in anything else. The flatless and boring conversations drew Bill Cipher who wanted to escape the class system mad. He never wanted to destroy his home dimension but he was so angry at them that he accidently destroyed it.
Also, I have the theory that Bill Cipher discovered that they were magical forms, but magic was not allowed. He wanted to change something. But no one in his dimension wanted a change.
This also explains why Bill wants to create chaos instead of order. (Because the class system was all about order).
This is just my little theory and my explanation why I can't see Bill as a bad person...
As the Axolotl says...
"Saw his own dimension burn,
Misses home and can't return,
Says he's happy, he's a liar,
blame the arson for the fire"
hmmmm...seems like he regrets burning his home..
He realized he was 2D character in a cartoon and went insane. And thus being made up, anything he want could happen
That...Actually makes sense
Actually that’s not too far off. He *knows* he’s in a cartoon, he’s *aware* of the audience, and he knows the nature of his existence and ours
So basicaly a flowey situation where he knows everything is just a game

😂whyyyy
....ooooohhhhhh
I hate this comment so much 😂😂😂😂😂
dont think of it as a pyramid scheme, think about it as a pyramid team
boi's, we got em.
I'm just going to post this theory I thought of:
Two Timeline Theory
Orginal timeline (Weirdmagedon never happens): The events of "D&M vs. The Future" happen but Ford and Dipper are able to seal the rift, skip to 3012 and the Time Baby frozen in ice reaks havoc on the world, skip to 20712 and the events of "Blendin's Game" happen (everything we see in the future in the show is the original timeline), Blendin makes a deal with Bill. Bill goes back in time and changes the timeline.
Alternate Timeline (Weirdmagedon happens): Bill/Blendin intercepts Mabel, destroys the rift, and causes Weirdmagedon. Time Baby goes back in time but is distigrated by Bill, reconstitutes in 1000 years leading to two Time Babies in 3012. And the rest happens as we saw.
Lost Legend oh I see each one causes the other
I have no Dollar in my House. None.
Go figure. He's not everywhere!
(Lost Legend) That makes a lot of sense. In the short “Dipper’s Guide to the Unexplained: Mailbox,” it says that the end of the world is in 3012, 1000 years after the events of Gravity Falls.
When you stop to think about it, it's actually Dipper's fault Weirdmagedon happens. You see: Dipper's obsession to Wendy led to them messing with the time machine, which led to Blendin getting in trouble and vowing vengeance, which led to the events of "Blendin's Game", which then led to Bill making a deal with Blendin.

Bill Cipher, an antagonist, won Weirdmageddon (but was stopped)
Bill also likes fire, uses it for part of his power, but a lot of times regrets burning everything in sight to its last molecule for no reason, to the point where it's in a poem.
8-5-18-15-2-18-9-14-5, a protagonist, keeps losing their battles against an antagonist, even though their probably even more overpowered than Bill himself.
-Also likes fire, uses it for part of their power, but all the time regrets burning things in sight for no reason, to the point where it's in a song. But, they were told to do this, due to the lyric after, saying why they did that; being forced to hate, and even burn down, their own dimension.
Bill, on the other hand, does this on his free will, but also regrets it.
Bill seems heartless and sadistic, but probably wasn't/isn't always that way.
Who I was talking about seems heartless, but actually is the total opposite, trying to show that they don't want to intentionally hurt others. That's why their best friend (I could go as far as to call them their practical sibling) knows that truth and, like Sans from Undertale, will try to protect, and even get revenge for them.
No, please don't go to the conclusion that Bill's the one forcing them to do this, because the song I was talking about gives a *huge* hint to who's responsible.
Hope this gives you a new perspective on Bill, 8-5-18-15-2-18-9-14-5, and 5-14-20-9-20-25!

Bill cipher rule the mulitverse and universes
I like to assume that Bill might've had some form of supernatural abilities in his home dimension, but perhaps because of his powers conflicting with his time in alternate dimensions, it allowed him to have much more control and many more powers than he may have originally had

This video answered so many questions for me! The ending of it has me confused though. I have always believed that Bill was still around living within Stan’s head; there is much evidence behind it which is displayed in The Film Theorist’s video titled “Film Theory: Gravity Falls ISN’T OVER!”, which has caused me to believe their statement. Seeing now that there is also evidence behind Bill being reborn into King, and seeing the many hints in Gravity Falls and Owl House’s relation is causing me to grow very curious. Which theory is most accurate? Is it even worth deciding since the show ended years ago and I’m just a huge nerd to still be researching about it? Maybe Gravity Falls continues within Owl House. If so, will the second season answer these questions causing my questions
I was thinking about this and wanted to share it somewhere, and I felt this was a good place, so here goes: If the Anti-Mabel's page on Shmeb-You-Unlocked has a brief description of the rumoured Anti-Bill at the bottom (in code), and if he is real, this means there is at least one alternate version of Bill. How do we know that there aren't more alternate versions of him scattered about the multiverse? (Side note, but the Anti-Bill just interests me. Did he originate in an alternate version of the 2nd dimension, or is he from the same original universe as our Bill? Does our Bill know of his existence? Do the Anti-Pines know of his existence?)

Well, it wasn't necessarily a "psychotic act". I have a feeling Bill didn't have a good relationship with his family because they were cruel to _him._ And since the AXOLOTL said he misses home, I don't think he burned his dimension on purpose.
I think he wanted to take over the Pines' dimension because he wanted a place to call home again. It was filled with chaos because that was really the only way he knew how to cope with what he had done. To expand, he did it because he wanted to escape reality and that was the only way he knew how to do it.
After he made the comment about Rick and bill meeting the moment when rick referenced God after his fight with Zeus saying that it would have gone differently makes a lot more sense now.
Bill met Rick I'd love to see how chaotic that was
Someone needs to make a animation of Rick running into bill and his encounter
Yes! A flashback episode Rick and Morty with Bill that might be worth watching.
There is that amazing fanfiction about Bill's origins and it's called "Flat dreams". I highly recomend it and even if it's not canon it is worth giving it a chance. Really makes you think twice. Plus one chapter is just hilarious! But I'm not going to spoil it for people who want to read.

That image seems to ring a bell because I feel like I’ve seen it before.
JussPhoenix Depends on your perspective really.
Don Crump for me it looks kinda neat
I’m surprised bill didn’t get involved with Einstein he could definitely build a portal maybe idk
There's also an added layer of "wow" to that family genocide story once you realize that his powers come naturally to him, he might have studied and improved them but a most people in his home dimension could probably do most to all of the things he could. Meaning that they just sat there while the world burned. I imagine it was a last ditch effort to get his family to change, maybe if he pushed them they'd take the leap, when they didnt they died. The axolotl makes it clear that he feels some remorse about burning his home world to the ground. He probably didnt think they would actually let themselves be killed off.
I think it wasnt about physical abilities, more like Bill is unpredictable to his bland species
Bill also wanted to yeet Dipper's body off the water tower IIRC, which is a fairly good way of stopping him from interfering if it did happen
I think Bill is a wonderful villain to the very end. Given how impatient he seemed to be about unleashing weirdmageddon he played the long con beautifully. When he lost ford he was very vigilant on the sidelines. I mean yes he got sloppy towards the end but he didn’t expect gravity falls to keep weirdness in and making him see that he was in yet another prison. Driving him even more insane than he already was. Which is saying something considering he’s probably as old or older than our entire universe and lived in two unbearable hell holes for what felt like an eternity.

Bro unleashed an apocalypse but still was defeated by two 12 year olds. Sounds like a skill issue
You got to admit, Bill had to be nerfed on many occasions to give the protags a chance to win. Nerfed by creative writing, but imagine a Bill at full capacity and potential and the scary impossibilities he could wreak
Actually there's a theory that Bill, after his defeat in Weirdmageddon, was sent back in time and either possessed Stan or was reincarnated as Stan. There were hints about this dropped during the Gravity Falls mystery hunt thing that happened irl and a statue of Bill was found. I can't remember all the details but MatPat on Film Theory did a video on it
In my opinion bill survived because he became part of stan's memories, so when stan's memories came back, bill came back but he is just trapped in stan's mind now and that's why stan tells us to shake the statue's hand so bill can jump into someone else eventually getting back to his physical body. and since his physical body is still in our dimension, he could open another dimensional rift and eventually destroy the barrier surrounding gravity falls.
Having a seemingly all powerful being that can offer you anything is such a great scenario for characterization.
And that's just a theory, of Film Theory.

Sixty degrees that come in threes.
Watches from within birch trees.
Saw his own dimension burn.
Misses home and can't return.
Says he's happy.
He's a liar.
Blame the arson for the fire.
If he wants to shirk the blame,
He'll have to invoke my name.
One way to absolve his crime,
A different form, a different time.

Tidbit Thoughts (delicious pieces of information):
Alchemy Symbol for Fire = Upright Equilateral Triangle.
Primary Colors = In short:
Red is a color for passion/desire, hunger, power, and wrath; blue is a color for calm, stability, productivity, and sadness/desolation; yellow is related to acquired knowledge, optimism, egotism, and impulsivity (plus more for all of these colors).
Putting all of the primary colors together and rapidly flashing them causes epileptic seizures or extreme amounts of discomfort and discombobulation.
Protagonists in cartoons that have been yellow tend to have blue as the principal color for background. This is said to produce a happy, relaxed feeling, which means that Bill's blue and yellow color pairing is like a sedative. It's when he is angry that he shows a bit of his true nature. The red and yellow color pairing has typically been used to stimulate impulsive spending in marketing. It has also been used for subliminal rushes of hunger and a feeling of lacking something that causes anxiety.
Yellow would seem like the happiest of colors, but painting a baby's room with it has been associated with more crying.
Eye of Providence (aka. All-Seeing Eye) = The eye of God watches over everyone as it's graced by flames or rays of glory (original) or the Illuminati and all of its ties to conspiracy theories (arguably one of the most popular and most well-recognized).
Triangle = Most stable shape in geometry. They are used in construction a great deal more than can be realized. Triangles even have their own form of math for how special they are. It is quite funny how Bill is from a flat-dimension in this regard, as the flat triangle transforms into a three-dimensional structure/building. It's almost as if the apocalypse is being started by math and engineering.
Dapper Look = The 1800s have been remembered for being the first time the top hat, cane, and bow tie came into fashion as an ensemble. Bill's style of walking, dress, and even a pinch of his voice resembles all of this (--that canon human form of his further supports his style's origins).
For the most part, his voice sounds like a car salesman mixed with a casual stand-up comedian. Maybe a slight bit of infomercial, but that's debatable ("I sawed this man in half! -- Repair it with Flesh Tape. Only costs a nickel, journal, and the minds of all meat-bags in Gravity Falls.").
18:37 i love the delivery of that
Hey Awestruck, Good thing I like gravity falls
*Flashback to it ending*
Bill and Rick interacting would just be hilarious they'd both be constantly outdoing each other until Morty throws a deus ex machina at Bill and he dissapears
That's what I imagine would happen at least
Meh I think to Rick it wasn’t a big deal seeing as he said “I meet at least 20 people a week that try to kill me, most of them I get drunk with.”
I mean think about the reaction he had with the cat. And also because bill looks for people who crave information I don’t think Rick Sanchez aka the smartest thing in the multiverse would be a person he would look for.
10:16 For those who don't know, it's a backwards message saying "BILL CIPHER! TRIANGLE"
Bill Cipher: Tortured Mason/Dipper, Mabel, and literally everyone else in the show.
Fam: WE STILL LOVE YOU!
Me: Heh. I like axolotls.
