The Intro
The bus that the twins take to gravity falls is called the Speedy Beaver
This shot is directly from episode one. Dipper is wearing his old hat, and Mabel is wearing her rainbow sweater, the one with the symbol that appears in what I will refer to as the “Triangle-man page,” the one with the circle and all of the symbols that might represent different characters. A similar rainbow symbol is also on her suitcase. One if Dipper’s suitcases says “piedmont” (anybody know what this is??).
Later in the intro, Dipper is seen with his new hat, but Mabel seems to be wearing the same sweater. (However, she now sports a headband and not a visor)
This giant foot that they are standing in is a little bit odd. For human feet, the largest toe should be on the curved side (observe your own foot if you don’t believe me). This is backwards, however. It’s probably just an animation error, but why not mention it?This is first shadow that flashes across the screen. You’ve probably seen the second one, with bigfoot, but is this? A little stretching and scewing and…
Hmm. Doesn’t really look like much. Probably nothing, just some random squiggles that the artists put in and then motion blurred and such, but you never know?? Any ideas, guys??
Here’s bigfoot anyway for those of you who haven’t seen it.
Here’s some good stuff… Open for speculation: where is this place exactly?? Some people say it’s in the upcoming episode “Irrational Treasure.” What do you think? Now let’s examine the runes.
From top to bottom, the runes seem to be “Uruz” “Mannaz” “Othala” and “Ansuz” (or possibly “Fehu,”) each rune roughly means “strength” “self” “inherited property” and “wisdom.” Roughly. Meh. If anyone knows more about this (I certainly don’t), information is much appreciated.SPECULATION: If you’ve seen any of the previews for the upcoming episode “the time-traveler’s pig,” this is probably that pig. It has the same spot around its eye, and if the goggles-man is the time traveler looking for his pig, and the goggles-man is important enough to appear in almost every episode so far, than the pig is probably important enough to appear in the theme song. So this is probably that same pig. Yay, logic.SPECULATION: Any idea what this is? I think it is a giant vampire bat.
THIS STUFF. I’m far too lazy right now, but when I get around to it, I’m going to go frame by frame and try to assemble a large version of the entire page without Dipper’s hand in the way.
We can already see some familiar images here. That odd scribbly code in red, the triangle-man, some apparent code decoder #8, that odd W symbol, and those alchemy runes. When I get around to that final image, everything is open for speculation!!We can’t do much with this page except for speculate. I’ll take note of some things I notice. We can see Gideon, a Gnome, and the goggles-man. The rest are unknown, however, there appears to be some kind of fish-man, similar to the Fiji mermaid, some jackalope, alien UFOs, and some scarecrow thing? Other pictures are harder to see. The one on the top shows somebody with a large nose and a goatie, next to that is something with pink in the background and something pointy and yellow. Bellow the Fiji mermaid is something grey and blurry, and next to that is a repeat of the scarecrow thing. Behind the UFOs appears to actually be a shot from earlier in the intro:
and behind that is something brown, blurry, and kind of spotty. Further along we get what seems to be a pteradactyle and a vampire.
Speculation on what these pictures are: Some people wonder why there is a picture of a gnome when Mabel said they never got any pictures of them in episode 2. I believe that these pictures don’t actually exsist, they are just in the intro as an animation choice, or whatever you want to call it, to show viewers the kind of creatures the Pine twins encountour throughout the show (because that’s what TV show intros do. Honeslty, everything we see in the intro shouldn’t exactly be considered canon until it is seen in an episode, because of this fact) However, if gnomes reapear later in the show, and they get a picture of them, then these photographs could actually exsist, possibly in a scrapbook of Mabel’s. Also note that there is a bite taken out of the Gnome photo.
And this. Nothing particular, except that Mabel is once again seen in that sweater. Really, it’s just a cute photo :3
We all know this picture. But if you look closely at this
You’ll notice the numbers “618” and “31”, which seem to occur often throughout the show. More on these, including a better picture, on the Numbers page.
We all know this picture too. I won’t go into it much, since I will have an entire separate post about it, but I thought I might as well include it. Also, I feel awesome because I paused on it perfectly and didn’t have to go frame by frame to find it.
Yeah, that guy is definitely important.
