History WMG / GrandUnifyingGuessesMiscellaneous

* They're two families of cops, who for [[GenerationXerox some reason]] have a tendency to get partnered together. This needs a bit of elaboration, given that in ''BackToTheFuture Part II'' they're a SaltAndPepper duo, in ''Trespass'' they're both black, and in ''Used Cars'' and ''1941'' they're both white. The 2015 Reese and Foley are descended from Agent Reese from ''Used Cars'' and Officer Foley from ''Trespass''. They, in turn are cousins of Agent Foley and Officer Reese from the same films - so at some point there were two mixed marriages. And both late 20th century sets are descended from Privates Reese and Foley in ''[[NineteenFortyOne 1941]]'', who may or may not have moved into law enforcement after the war.

TrueAssassin: [[AssassinsCreed Altaïr]] (In this case, the only thing handicapping him is the necessity for mana from a Master to sustain his existance as a Servant. Otherwise everyone would just be dead.)

* Which explains the random snowglobe moments in ''{{Psych}}'', ''BurnNotice'', ''Series/{{Heroes}}''... there must be more...

* Or possibly, given how many cameos they make in other episodes, the ''DrawnTogether'' world is the "hub" of every movie and TV show ever made. The housemates are probably {{Evil Twin}}s of their prototypes, who also exist there (at least Ariel does, alongside Clara).

[[WMG: The island from ''{{Lost}}'' is where the Earth is finalising [[HitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy the Ultimate Question Of Life The Universe and Everything]]]]

[[WMG: ComicStrip/LittleOrphanAnnie is a lost member of the [[{{Naruto}} Hyuuga]] clan.]]

*** Actually, this has already happened and the Terminator was successful in locking all Tropers in TheMatrix.

[[WMG: 2001: A Space Odyssey takes place in the same universe as {{Halo}}.]]
* [[TwoThousandAndOne HAL]] is exactly the same kind of AI as [[{{Halo}} Cortana]], but can't project a hologram because they didn't have the tech back then. The UV failsafe for smart AI was installed because of the Discovery incedent - the astronauts all died because there was no way to cut the higher brain functions of HAL easily, quickly, and remotely after he went Rampant. This is also why smart AI are not used when a dumb AI will work just as well.

* [[GundamWing Heero Yuy]] is decended from [[FullMetalPanic Sousuke Sagara]], who is in turn decended from [[RurouniKenshin Sanosuke Sagara]] (although this is based mainly on name and pain threshold).

* '''They share the same name''', people! It's a sign that, yes indeed Tropers, that worldwide, Internet-based resistance to Scientology was created by none other than ''the originators of [=LOLcats=]''!! And 4chan was created by none other than '''SomethingAwful'''! This is big, people. Big.

[[WMG: The [=AnthroPCs=] from QuestionableContent are evolved from the Banana Computer from BloomCounty and will develop into the Robot culture of {{Futurama}}.]]

[[WMG: CowboyBebop, {{Firefly}}, {{Dune}}, and EveOnline all form part of the same continuity]]

[[WMG: The Most Ultimate [[FateStayNight Grail War]] Ever consists of:]]

Caster: [[TheSlayers LinaInverse]], or [[{{Bastard}} Dark Schneider]] or [[MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha Nanoha Takamichi]]
* Archer? Hmm, [[{{Bleach}} Quincy]] Archer ([[IncrediblyLamePun hates you]]), perhaps?

[[WMG: The Netherwitch from ''{{Thundercats}}'' is just another alias for [[XXXHolic Yuuko Ichihara.]]]]

[[WMG: ''GeneratorRex'' is the future of the ''MetalGearSolid'' games.]]

[[WMG:The existence of [[SouthPark Imaginationland]] proves all these theories right.]]

Meanwhile, during a party consisting of {{Nintendo}} villians, [[{{Kirby}} Wispy Woods]] and a [[{{Mario}} Boo]] got a bit too drunk, and [[InterspeciesRomance nine months later]] Wispy Woods, who [[FemaleMonsterSurprise is a woman]], gives birth to the first [[Series/DoctorWho Weeping Angel]], who was promptly sent back to the beginning of the universe by [[Webcomic/EightBitTheater Sarda]], to whom Wispy Woods owed money. Like Halley, the Angel had the heterozygous "Weak to Apples" genotype from its mother, but unlike Halley, its father gave it the "Does not like being looked at" gene, which is dominant.

* The answer is clear. It's [[{{Discworld}} Vetinari]], who may or may not be [[TropeNamer Xanatos]] [[ChessMaster himself.]]

[[WMG: Taylor Swift's ''Love Story'' is about [[HighSchoolMusical Kelsi Nielsen]]'s neo-feminist adaptation of ''Romeo and Juliet''.]]

[[WMG: {{Andromeda}} and [[HerculesTheLegendaryJourneys Hercules]] take place in the same universe]]

* One theory is that said character is none other than Emmitt Nervend, aka., that weird old man with the big teeth and bulging eyes that shows up in the background of every ''{{Freakazoid}}'' episode. Many other theories abound, though...

* There's a [[Webcomic/ElGoonishShive Tedd]] in every universe.

The character is an immortal, universe-hopping genius, who is also a master of stealth, disguise and camouflage. All so that he can spy on the main characters 24 hours a day and help them to reach the ending that is fated for them. All the unlikely coincidences which drive the plot forward are orchestrated by him. All the vital items found in unlikely places have been placed there by him. When the heroes manage to escape from jail by outwitting the [[TheGuardsMustBeCrazy stupid guards]], they better thank this character for earlier slipping of laxative into the lunch of the elite, intelligent guards who were supposed to be on guard that day.
* This character is, in fact, Emmitt Nervend (see above theory). He has chosen to publicly show himself, of all things, inside a silly cartoon, to make sure that no one will seriously consider his involvement into anything else. "Nervend" is obviously just a corruption of his real name, which is ''Neverend'' (which signifies his neverending quest to bring all works of fiction to the closure that's meant for them).
* Also, he ''is'' in all scenes, only he's usually disguised as an insignificant background character or is standing just BehindTheBlack.

* Actually, the mysterious fella's intentions are entirely different. In a thousand different worlds, he surreptitiously follows all the interesting people around and records their adventures, so that later he can publish them as "fiction" under the guise of an "author" persona.

* [[IAmLegion I am Legion]], for we are many.
** [[SidMeiersAlphaCentauri Eternity lies ahead of us, and behind. Have you drunk your fill?]]

*** That Terminator caused TheGreatCrash before it was destroyed by the fledgling Cabal.

* [[TwoThousandAndOne HAL]] is exactly the same kind of AI as [[{{Halo}} Cortana]], but can't project a hologram because they didn't have the tech back then. The UV failsafe for smart AI was installed because of the Discovery incedent - the astronauts all died because there was no way to cut the higher brain functions of HAL easily, quickly, and remotely after he went Rampant. This is also why smart AI are not used when a dumb AI will work just as well.

Every single one of us is actually from an alternate dimension where we are the hero/heroine/villain, and absolutely no-one else from our dimension is here. The people that we just "click" with just remind us of someone close to us from our home dimension. Likewise, the people that we just innately hate remind us of the villains of our dimension, and TVTropes is the more proactive {{Jumped at the Call}} protagonists trying to make some sense of this crossover.

All works that we see as "fiction" are actually their creator's way of retelling the story of their dimension, with series' in multiple universes (like ''{{Final Fantasy}}'' and ''{{Fire Emblem}}'') being the attempts to tell the stories of other members of the dev teams, as are multiple series' from the same company. Furthermore, any crossover "fiction" is an attempt at creating the apocalypse- once this giant web of dimensions becomes too intertwined, it will collapse on itself, causing the end of all life.

Which doesn't mean what you'd think at first. No, every individual being is not their own Time Lord. That would be impractical. Rather, every living being, combined, is a single Time Lord. The Universe and Imagination is the TARDIS for the Time Lord (infinitely large yet with a visibly finite space, do some research on our recent knowledge of the Universe), and collectively being reborn as a younger and younger version of itself forever. Ultimately, it will last for exactly one eternity as time loops around itself and the Time Lord is born again.

OK, this one's a gimmie, but still...

[[WMG:Plank from ''[[EdEddNEddy Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'' is a distant relative of Stump from ''TheAngryBeavers'']]

* They are all members of a {{Ninja}} clan, which includes every single {{Ninja Log}}.

* This theory runs up against the problem that it is also a theory dealing with fiction, resulting in a somewhat clichéd paradox.

[[WMG: {{Cowboy Bebop}}, {{Firefly}}, {{Dune}}, and {{Eve Online}} all form part of the same continuity]]

* In the future of the Dokuroverse, immortality has been attained, but as a side effect women stop aging past 12. This is why all the characters in LuckyStar are so short.

[[WMG: The helicopter that Chev Chelios falls ''out of'' in Film/{{Crank}} is the same one that the Senator's bodyguard in {{ShootEmUp}} falls ''into''.]]

That is all.

[[WMG: The [[OutlawStar Ctarl-Ctarl]] are an offshoot race of the [[{{Film/Avatar}} Na'vi.]]]]

* '''Brutally''' deconstructed by ''NineteenEightyFour''. In that dystopia, The Party, with the invention of NewSpeak, can basically make everyone believe their lies and propaganda.

[[WMG: {{Buffy The Vampire Slayer}}, {{Dollhouse}} and {{Firefly}} ''all'' take place in the same universe.]]

So you can skip having your DoomsdayDevice requiring ImportedAlienPhlebotinum and just use LinkinPark albums as an alternative fuel source.

* They should never ever meet because [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann they will cause Spiral Nemesis]].

Rider: [[{{Gurren Lagann}} Simon]]

[[WMG: VForVendetta is set in the same universe as LordOfTheFlies]]
Throughout LotF, the kids keep mentioning "The War," and how the pilot earlier said that since "The Bomb" was used, everyone is dead, but based on the ending, the British are still very much around.

* ''NeonGenesisEvangelion'' '''confirms''' this. Also, this is why TrueArtIsAngsty and why [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Kyubey]] harvest young girls' emotions for entropy-free energy.
** [[GurrenLagann But there is an opposing force...]]

Both films feature ridiculously over-the-top, [[DeadpanSnarker wisecracking]] AntiHero protagonists who [[CoitusUninterruptus have sex in incredibly unusual situations]] who [[{{Determinator}} nonchalantly ignore]] [[MadeOfIron incredibly serious injuries]], unlikeable, somewhat creepy [[BigBad big bads]] and general [[RuleOfCool over-the-top awesomeness]]. ThisTroper, for one, wants to see a showdown between them.

* The answer is clear. It's [[{{Discworld}} Vetinari]], who may or may not be [[XanatosGambit Xanatos]] [[ChessMaster himself.]]

*** His true name of course is [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji]] [[HaruhiSuzumiya Suzumiya]]

* And thus [[Film/SpiderMan Spider-Man]] is a [[CatsAndDogs talking dog]].

* There's a [[ElGoonishShive Tedd]] in every universe.

* '''Brutally''' deconstructed by ''Literature/NineteenEightyFour''. In that dystopia, The Party, with the invention of NewSpeak, can basically make everyone believe their lies and propaganda.

So you can skip having your DoomsdayDevice being PoweredByAForsakenChild and just use LinkinPark albums as an alternative fuel source.
* ''NeonGenesisEvangelion'' '''confirms''' this. Also, this is why TrueArtIsAngsty.

*** Okay, it's official: [[{{Discworld}} Death]] is a [[WMG/DoctorWho Time Lord]] in Purgatory.
*** His true name of course is [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji]] [[HaruhiSuzumiya Suzumiya]]

** All nameless entities are the same person. When or if a person abandons their name, in most cases during this thing we call "death", they become that person. He is the HiveMind, the [[IAmLegion legion]], the [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Instrumentality]], the Afterlife, the Man Behind The Curtain. He is..[[spoiler:the [[AllPsychologyIsFreudian Id]], the true form of humanity, the inner chaos of primal desiring energy that we sought to repress to prevent future generations from going mad from the revelation and maintain an illusion of order.]]

* [[NeonGenesisEvangelion The Instrumentality]] will happen if all beings real or fictional finds out they are the same Time Lord. With these WMG s thrown in, we can see what actually happened in Eva: The Instrumentality involves the fusion of Adam and Lilith (the recreation of Adam Kadmon, to add an earlier assumption), creating a time-traveling shapeshifter (Giant Naked Rei, who sent soul-collecting Rei around time and space, hence the Reis at the very beginning and the end), which then assimilates the souls of all beings into a single entity, the primordial Time Lord of this WMG. However, a new body for the Time Lord must be chosen as an ark which will wander the universe as a Time Lord forever, and that one happens to be Yui / Eva 01.

* First, the universe is created and evolves as seen in {{Buffy}} and {{Angel}}. At late 80's the founders of Rossum create the tech, but still stay below radar.
* The events of {{Buffy}} and {{Angel}} take place. Rossum accumulates power.

Both films feature ridiculously over-the-top, [[DeadpanSnarker wisecracking]] AntiHero protagonists who [[CoitusUninterruptus have sex in incredibly unusual situations]] who [[{{Determinator}} nonchalantly ignore]] [[MadeOfIron incredibly serious injuries]], unlikeable, somewhat creepy [[BigBad big bads]] and general [[BeyondTheImpossible over-the-top awesomeness]]. ThisTroper, for one, wants to see a showdown between them.

[[WMG: LuckyStar takes place in the same universe as BokusatsuTenshiDokuroChan, but in the future.]]

[[WMG: [[ArrestedDevelopment Michael and GOB Bluth]] are [[{{Supernatural}} Sam and Dean Winchester]]]]

It's simple, really. All the ''L&O'' series explicitly take place in the same world. JohnMunch also exists in ''{{Homicide}}'', ''ArrestedDevelopment'', ''TheBeat'', ''TheWire'', and '''''TheXFiles'''''. These are, implicitly, the same universe. Now, in ''The X-Files'', aliens are scheduled to take over the world on December 22nd, 2012. And we ''know'' that ''Law And Order'' is [[LongRunners still going to be on the air in 2012]]. (This theory disregards the Tommy Westphall theory, but if you include it then the picture becomes more bleak)

[[WMG: Alex from AClockworkOrange fathered at least two daughters in his constant sexual activity.]]

* There's a [[ElGoonishShive Tedd] in every universe.

* It's Altaïr, he killed everyone in all fiction, so he must be in all fiction

* The answer is clear. It's [[Discworld Vetinari]], who may or may not be [[XanatosGambit Xanatos]] [[ChessMaster himself.]]

Meanwhile, during a party consisting of {{Nintendo}} villians, [[{{Kirby}} Wispy Woods]] and a [[{{Mario}} Boo]] got a bit too drunk, and [[InterspeciesRomance nine months later]] Wispy Woods, who [[FemaleMonsterSurprise is a woman]], gives birth to the first [[Series/DoctorWho Weeping Angel]], who was promptly sent back to the beginning of the universe by [[EightBitTheatre Sarda]], to whom Wispy Woods owed money.

** Then why does she lack the ''real'' Hyuuga [[BoobsOfSteel bloodline trait]]?
