    By the end of Encanto, we see Dolores united with her prince charming - or at least that is what it seems like from the outside. Theorists, when watching Encanto for the 100th time, my mind started thinking a little too hard about the whole Madrigal family and their magical, secluded town. Let's just say MAYBE they should hold off on the wedding for a while...

    A lot of people probably think you're exaggerating when you say you've seen the movie 50+ times with your kid, but as a parent I want to assure y'all that it's not an exaggeration. When a kid gets hooked they may watch a movie 2-5 times a day. Two weeks in and you've had it in the background 59+ times.

      I was hooked on this dinosaur movie with a triceratop, I can't remember the name of it (if you know it please tell me) it had "realistic" CGI with a voice over, and there was this love triangle with mutual pining...a weakling verse alpha going on, and the main pro had a hole in his head crown thing. I would watch it over and over and I loved every minute of it 😭

    Regarding the road and the bridge, my interpretation is that Luisa is re-arranging the town for the wedding. That's why she's moving the church to a more central location, that's why she's diverting the river and moving the bridge because she diverted the river and now it flows on a new path, thus needed her to move the existing bridge to a new location.

      I love this theory and hate that I can't believe it :(. But my reasoning that it can't be true is that even though everybody *knows* that Isabela and Mariano are set to be married, Mariano hasn't actually asked Isabela at that point. It would be super presumptuous to prepare for a wedding before the proposal has happened and was accepted and it's not like Luisa was subtle about what she was doing. I don't think Alma would have allowed it because it would have made the family lose face because of the presumptuousness.

    The main problem with the theory is that it’s been confirmed that people have come in from outside the village. Also, there were plenty of people living there even initially that inbreeding wouldn’t happen in just 50 years, which really isn’t that long when it comes to this topic.

    1:40 Casita fixed itself. Casita's "health" is determined by the general mental/emotional state of Abuela/Mirabel, so, I don't really know exactly what counts as "bad enough mental health for Casita to be cracking" vs "good enough mental health for Casita to be cracking," but I think maybe just the fact that Mirabel was, at that point, distracted by the cracks rather than focusing on her internal depression (or whatever you want to call it) may have been sufficient for the cracks to go away.
    But hey, that's just a theory. A film theory!

    One thing I heard is that Encanto’s plot, at least one of the early drafts, was originally going to be a “journey” set plot were the main cast would leave Encanto and into the modern world. With a show confirmed to be in the making, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if that original plot would be the basis for it, and if it is, it would be a solution to this issue.

    The cracks were real but heal when the family bands together. When Mirabel warned the family of the cracks and they all came running in support, it fixed. We see it do exactly that, in real time, when Isabel embraces Mirabel in front of a crack in Cassita.

But that’s just a theory lmao

The tweet you posted in 3:10 only states they family lives there, and THEY haven't left, not that no one has come in. Even if no one is coming in, a population of 50 is all that's needed to prevent inbreeding, and 500 will prevent genetic drift.

    My favorite theory for Encanto is that Mirabel did get a gift, it was to form the world around her. At first when she got her gift she was worried she didn’t get one so she thought about it so it happened. Like how in the part where Casita cracks, she was afraid of that happening so it did. When everyone came out of the ceremony in Antonio’s room she was afraid that no one would believe her thought it might of been her imagination so no one believed her.

      Well, historically, people have difficulty moving large armies over mountain ranges, so it would actually be a VERY effective defense method. Besides, we see that the enemy soldiers are riding horses and using primitive guns, so they probably believe in witchcraft. The sight of a bunch of mountains popping out of thin air after a cloaked woman places a candle on the ground would probably be enough to ward them away. The tiny amount of people moving in in are probably very adventurous people that aren't afraid of witchcraft.

    About the first cracks: they reflect a broken home due to the members being treated as magical tools more than actual family. The moment following it Alma listened to her granddaughter and was willing to solve the problem she saw - that moment of trust made the cracks shallower enough to not be visible anymore for the moment
    Also it is revealed that there ARE people that come from out of town. Like, you do realize roads are still a thing in this timeline, right? Or you could just...hike the mountains. Which yes, is a lot of walking. But not impossible. Or Luisa could move them, which she says she can do in Surface Pressure. Heck, the kids didn't even know who the family was at first, which hints that they and their family aren't originally from there. I mean look at how diverse that place is

      The kids didn't know about the family because they haven't been to a ceremony yet. They knew *about* the family but didn't know names or powers yet as they're too young. Their parents probably told them that day being like, "We're gonna go watch a kid gain powers. It's called a gift." That's why they ask about Antonio's gift.

    On the cracks appearing the first time: there’s a theory that Mirabel is somehow intricately linked to the magic, hence why she never got a door till the end of the movie.
    To support this, think about what took place shortly before the cracks appeared the first time: Mirabel feeling hopeless, shown by the line “am I too late for a miracle?” At the end of her song.
    This theme of Mirabel losing hope being tied to the cracks is shown again when Abuella starts verbally attacking Mirabel later and even during the initial dinner scene too, as Mirabel seems to be struggling to hold on to having hope but once Abuella, who always assumes Mirabel is useless or in the way due to her not having a gift, sees the prophecy, her mind automatically went to feeling dejected and hopeless.

    another example of inbreeding in isolated communities is Martha’s vineyard. the original settlers were from a small village in england that kept inbreeding. this resulted in a recessive gene for deafness being extremely common to the point where around the 1800s 1/155 people on the vineyard were deaf and in isolated pockets as many as 25%. it’s actually an interesting case study for the social model of disability because deaf people on the island weren’t considered disabled because everyone knew sign language.

    One big flaw in this theory: despite starting with so few people they started with large amounts of diversity. Naturally, there would of been a mix of Native and Spanish genetics, and then there was also African genetic citizens as well. This makes it so there are large amounts of dominant genes to start that would combat any defective recessive.
    This also might be the reason for the ununiform studies for what a stable gene pool would need to be to start. Start with a bunch of similar people the you'll need to start with more, but if you have a heavily diverse pop you can start with less. And the Encanto starts with a fairly diverse population.
    So, you might need to get Austin back on the program to get more variables in there to included the amount of diversity that 3 genetic regions could have.
    Also, this would actually be a break through in considering a unifying formula to genetic diversity of small populations. So, definitely a worth while goal if nothing else. And maybe a revisit to other movies with small and/or devastated populations like Raya, Dragon's, and even Brave (considering the lack of diversity of those small populations)... Oh god, Hiccup is inbred...

    They've only been in the Encanto long enough for *one* new generations to be born. Two if you figure there might be some teen pregnancy and pregnant women fleeing with them when their home village was raided. There's an entire village of at least 100 different families and the writers said that people do come in to the Encanto from the outside. Mirabel's dad comes from outside the Encanto. Plus the walls came down at the end of the movie and did not repair just because the magic returned. They have options. Inbreeding doesn't seem like one of them.

    This reminds me, I've been re-thinking your "Dolores being evil" thing from a while ago and I think there's 1 thing that throws a wrench in it. Dolores' little squeaks. In a supercut video of her doing those cute little squeaks someone in the comment section said that that is something some Colombian people do when at a state of unease. Knowing that, think about each time Dolores squeaked. 1st time was telling those kids that Mirabel doesn't have a gift which is a touchy subject, 2nd time is her telling Mirabel about Luisas' twitchy eye which involves the magic fading out, an even more touchy subject. Times 3 and 4 both happen when she over hears that Mirabel found Brunos' lost vision, what it's about and her and Agustin saying to keep it on the down low. On the one hand she can't say anything about Bruno because of her mom Pepa holding a salty grudge on the guy for causing her wedding to become a mess. On the other hand Dolores is Almas' little stool pigeon and has to tell her everything of major importance. Then there's the long drawn out squeal she dose during the dinner with her being all "I must say something" and Mirabel staring at her all "Don't you bloody dare". Basically Dolores might've been under the heel of keeping up appearances like everyone else.

    My headcanon is that when Mirabel saw the cracks Bruno started patching up the wall cracks and this gesture is what allows casita to magically fix the remaining cracks. Casita was relieved that Bruno was helping the family so that temporarily strengthened the magic.

  • @YiPeaches

    This actually works really well with my analysis that the breaking point for the house WAS the marriage, because Isa didn't love Mariano and Casita would not stand for the next generation of Madrigals to be raised in a loveless marriage. It had to be arranged carefully to hold off inbreeding, but it wouldn't be an emotionally healthy environment for children; so Casita just hit reboot on the whole thing to prevent generational disaster.

    This has nothing to do with this theory but I’ve been thinking about my own theory:
    My theory was that maybe Mirabel just wasn’t a Madrigal at all biologically… it’s been said that Augustin was from out of town and Abuela didn’t immediately like him and it took a while for her to finally accept him, then in the movie Mirabel says in the opening song “My dad married Julieta” which it might just be to make the song sound better OR it’s because Julieta isn’t her biological mom, since she’s the youngest he couldn’t have had her before he met Julieta but maybe he had an affair, she forgave him but they kept it from the rest of the family, Abuela had a hard time accepting him already so they knew if they told the family, there’s no way Augustin and maybe even Mirabel could live with them anymore so they lied about it and kept Mirabel.
    One thing I found weird was why Julieta treated Mirabel almost better than her other children, I can up with this: Julieta feels bad for Mirabel because she knows why she doesn’t have powers but she kept it a secret from her, her whole life and let her feel “not special”
    The only other thing I don’t really have an explanation for is how Mirabel knew Julieta wasn’t her biological mom? My best guess for that is maybe it was to make the doing sound better but she didn’t know it was actually true, kinda like a subconscious thing? Idk, that one’s more difficult to come up with an explanation for

I'm not sure how that would work considering everybody else also saw that happen, but then again it's expected that the town learns what each gift is, so I imagine that Mirabel's gifting ceremony was the one time anybody ever got to see her power in action.

      Yes, you can see from the only other gift ceremony shown: after he touches the door, the animals come to him and talk to him in a demonstration of his powers. The reversal of her door after touching it was the demonstration of her power, but the act was misunderstood.
