Lilly Yapping Abt Fnaf - Tumblr Posts

Retains the sweetness but is depressed is SOOOO GOOD and makes for such good angst. I love him like adopting Mike at some point (for me it's when Will goes on the run from cops) and even though Charlie's gone and Michael's is the reason Henry's life is ruined he still loves Mike so much!! HE STILL HAS NOT LOST HIS BIG HEART EVEN AFTER EVERYTHING!!

Part 500 of me yapping about some guys !!!!

Ahhhh I love to interpret Henry Emily as a fun dad and a nice and genuine guy because I just. I need that, I need a good dad character bro or else I’ll die😭😭😭 ahhhhh!! Also just thinking about him being a bit of a contrast to William, but also like. One of the only people in the world who would like, die for Will. That’s his crush best friend. :). :) oh buddy…

But then after Charlie dies he like loses it. Not ‘I’m gonna go insane and murder several kids’ like his counterpart but rather internalizing feelings of guilt and sadness and all around just not having a good time. A terrible time even. Living is a struggle. Alcoholic, shut-in, just no where near the guy he once was. I love that so much. Also just on a fucking REVENGE QUEST against his weird old terrible friend, and that being the only thing inspiring him to keep on living. My GOD!!!!! Yes

My dumbass could write a whole essay/yap session about my ideas for this character in my own little universe idfk

Also just. cool uncle Henry🫶 (bonus points if scooped Mike just lives with his cool but really sad uncle, and that helps the both of them…just having each other. I’m foaming at the mouth)

Instead of using AI to replace artists we should use AI to make these guys

Michael with short hair bothers me to no end. Like. I get it, his sprite has short hair, BUT WHERE'S THE FUN IN THAT?? He lives in the 80s don't tell me that boy wouldn't have a mullet. "Well what about when he grows up" I hear some of you say, MY GUY IS DEPRESSED. HES NOT CUTTING HIS HAIR REGULARLY.

Plus plus, he looks so good with beautiful long locks, please don't cut off my angel's wings.

All this to say, I love Michael with long hair so much but you do you, there is no wrong way, this is friccin fnaf where nothing is real.

JUST GONNA LEAVE THIS IN THE TAGS???

Oughhhh, William crying though. Not a want, but a need.

I imagine it's so easy to blame Michael for this. Michael always tormented Evan, Michael put him in Fredbear's mouth. It's easy to blame Michael because if he thinks about how he should have been a better parent, How he should have stepped in and stopped the Bullying, How he should have been watching closer during the party, How he should been a better engineer, Fredbear should have never been that dangerous in the first place... He wouldn't be able to live with himself.

So it's Michael's fault. Even is dead because of Michael, not him.

(Sorry I got rambly, this isn't even what your og post I just have lots of thought about this lol)

Hhhh. Wow okay I just got the idea to either draw or write a scene of William talking to Evan’s/CC’s grave, absolutely broken and just like. Crying. I need this dumbass to just sob because he misses his little boy- please let me have this ahhH. AHH

I keep seeing Moral Orel(Oral?) fanart on my FYP. I have never seen Moral Orel, I have never liked any Moral Orel posts, but I have liked and subscribed to FNaF posts. So. Everytime, for a split second, when I see it, I think it is FNaF fanart. Because the dad (Clay?) Is SUPER SIMILAR TO WILLIAM

Evil brunette old man.

Help me.

Hey Hey, I have some questions abt fnaf 1 and SL. So ik the fandom's (kind of) split on whether Mike gets scooped before or after FNaF 1, and I honestly don't know which make more sense because there are reasons for either.

So the ultimate thing I wonder about is the MCI. The original 5 kids are in the robots from fnaf 1 right? So who's in the Funtimes? I've seen some say the Funtimes were made with parts from the OG crew and therefore the 5 kids are in the Funtimes. This would mean SL is after fnaf 1 right?

BUT that doesn't make sense to me... Elizabeth got scooped before fnaf 1 yeah? So the Funtimes were made a while ago. Plus William probably would've sent Michael to find Liz sooner rather than later right?

BUT THEN WHO'S IN THE OTHER FUNTIMES?? MORE KIDS??

BUT ALSO if it's more kids in the Funtimes then how does FNAF 6 work?! The whole goal is to set everyone free right? But if Ennard/ Molten Freddy is a whole new set of kids, then how do they set the MCI kids free?? Did Ennard just go grab the other kids at some point?

Please reblog this with answers, or answer in my ask box or smth. I need help. I am confusion, fnaf is confusion.

Lol, idk what I expected from FNaF. I'll... find some way to make this make sense. Maybe if I just don't think about it lol

I have very similar thoughts honestly. I watched it and liked it, but i was VERY DISAPPOINTED AT THE LACK OF AFTONS. I went in blind, so i thought OMG ITS MICHAEL AFTON!! and then it was not.

I was very sad about that. I wanted my guyyyy. I wanted Afton family dramaaaa. I wanted the BITE OF '83!! or allusions to it, idk. Just more Aftons fjrjrjeh

As a fnaf movie enjoyer I would be so down to hear your thoughts on it! Like genuinely curious. I like hearing people's other perspectives

Of course! I probably should have clarified anyway. Just know that everything I say is lighthearted. I’m not mad at anyone who likes the movie, I think there’s some stuff about it that is fun, it just really didn’t do it for me personally. This is going to be a long one, so I’m sorry about that. Thank you for the ask!

Of course there are positives:

It looks great! The pizzeria, the animatronics, the sets and actors. Everything is really well done on a technical level. This extends to the casting being incredible. Matthew Lillard was a perfect choice for William Afton, he does insane guy pretending to be regular very well. Josh Hutcherson, Piper Rubio, Elizabeth Lail, the guy who played Doug, MATPAT??? All slay so hard. Everything like that about the movie is good.

Mike and Abby have a cute relationship. All the family stuff is actually really well done. I think it was a weird addition (I’ll touch on this later) but as it is it’s a well done part of the movie.

The little fan service bits are super fun. I shat my pants when Sparky the Dog came onscreen. That one guy being named Carl and getting his face eaten by the cupcake, the use of The Living Tombstone’s song at the end, MatPat. All these moments are great.

Dumb fun. I mean, it’s the FNaF movie. They build a fort! Freddy Fazbear is there! William Afton is there (sort of…)! Vanessa throws Mike’s Xanax or whatever into a lake! That’s hilarious! I enjoy the movie in this regard. As a FNaF fan who is occasionally willing to overlook everything I find disappointing about the movie, it’s fun.

However, it’s still not really a good movie.

I think this movie was pitched as being “For the fans” but aside from the little moments, like the ones I mentioned earlier, it isn’t really that. And it’s not clear enough for someone who has no idea what FNaF is to follow (that’s why critics were so confused). I don’t know how to Segway this into the next topic so here’s a few things that really bugged me from a fan perspective. 

The Aftons are not prominent or interesting at all. This should have been a slam dunk and it wasn’t. I might get in trouble for talking too much shit about Vanessa because people tend to love her for some reason, but she’s so boring. She doesn’t have that much personality or clear motivation and only shows up to deliver exposition or get stabbed. She has a lot of potential, maybe I could over analyze her potential one day, but as she stands she is not interesting. And don’t even get me started on William. He’s in like two scenes, doesn’t have any clear motivation at all and then just shows up at the end to get springlocked. I want to see him!!! Lemme see William! Why isn’t he more of a constant threat throughout the movie? Instead there’s a random child custody based subplot and the antagonist for most of the movie is some random character they made up and not William fucking Afton?? What’s his deal? It’s obviously not remnant because that doesn’t make sense based off his actions in the movie. I think they should have spent more time clarifying the motives for the movie Aftons, because as they stand they are completely different characters from their game counterparts (which is fine) but with no known motivations or personalities. Like you can’t expect me to apply their game motivations to this movie when they’re clearly super different.

The pizzeria isn’t prominent enough either. Mike doesn’t enough know what Freddy’s is despite probably being a child in the 80s. Garrett is kidnapped in the woods (Why did William Afton do that?) Mike spends more time zonked out and dreaming about Nebraska than he does thinking about Freddy Fazbear. It’s a bummer because it’s such a cool location, but the climax could have taken place almost anywhere and would have had the same effect with how few shits Mike gives about the Pizzeria. Which is a bummer because if Mike had just been a Charlie Emily type character then it would have been so easy. His dad was co-owner, his brother went missing there and now he has to go back and confront his demons. Have him freak out a little when the employment office guy tells him he can only get work at Freddy’s. Have him squint with vague recognition at “Steve Raglan” but not be able to put his finger on where he knows him from. Easy, doesn’t add too much and really brings the setting together.

The dream thing is kind of a stupid addition. It would be fine in a regular horror movie, but this is the FNaF movie? And it’s not a FNaF 4 reference because that’s not how FNaF 4 is. I get that they wanted to reference Dream Theory, which is a super fun reference but not enough to be the plot of the entire movie.

Not quite game compliant enough for a couple very specific things. I get that it’s a different media but like…Why can the kids appear in dreams? Why do they respond to drawings? Hey…why is Golden Freddy able to move around and stuff? That’s like his whole thing!

Some Random nitpicks: Wouldn’t it be more fun if the animatronics had beef with Vanessa? Isn’t the whole thing in the games that they don’t really like the kid of William Afton? The cupcake is too violent. The drawing thing is really stupid imo, especially because the kids seem creepy and violent even when they aren’t listening to William. I don’t think what Mike did to Garrett was bad enough idk, like I get that he feels responsible for his death, but he isn’t. Whereas Michael Afton was totally at fault for his brother’s death, Garrett was randomly picked up in the woods in Nebraska. The springlock scene was super lame, literally just period cramps. I get that it couldn’t be too intense because the movie was PG13 but maybe don’t make the movie PG13 if you can’t properly include one of the most iconic things in the games.

(These are the big ones. There’s a billion other things I could say but I think we’d be here all day)

But also, aside from being the FNaF movie…it’s just not a very good movie. The plot is all over the place. Nothing is explained very well. There’s a lot of exposition but not even about the things that matter. I don’t want to say that it wasn’t scary because I don’t personally get scared by horror movies but it wasn’t even intense. How are the animatronics a threat when they can be taken down with a taser? (I get that this is possibly a reference to 5 & 6 with the controlled shocks and such, but in those games they had to be like in a fixed spot and the taser was just a button, this can be taken places.) There are two antagonists and one of them is super random (if you don’t know the games), I’ve got a little facial blindness so if I didn’t know that Steve and William were the same based off prior knowledge I wouldn’t have put it together. It’s painfully slow at some points. The ghost children are underdeveloped. Certain arcs don’t go anywhere. It’s just all over the place.

And I think if it was a bad movie, that would be okay as long as it was a good FNaF movie. Or if it was a good movie, it would be okay for it to be a bad FNaF movie. But it’s not really great at being either thing, so (imo) it’s sort of just a terrible movie.

And it’s sad actually because I really wanted to love this movie. When I saw it in theaters, I left thinking it was a pretty solid movie, actually. Because I love FNaF and I was just happy to see it finally get the movie I’ve been waiting on since like 2015. But then I watched it 3 more times, and I started to realize that aside from the lore for the movie characters I made up in my own head and the fact that OMG Freddy Fazbear it wasn’t really a good movie or a good adaptation. I don’t hate it, though, I just think it’s a terrible movie (if that makes any sense). I’ll still go see the second one though, I’ll probably dress up too.

Final thoughts?

I think that a lot of the love for this movie comes, not from the source material, but from everything we made up afterwards. Headcanons and fan comics and fanfiction and the like. And that’s great! I’m glad people are taking a movie that I think is terrible, really I do. It just personally doesn’t do it for me, and that’s fine. Not every movie is for everyone, no movie could have been made that would satisfy every fan (The one they made just happens to not be for me. There’s a universe not too far from this one where I think the movie was great and you hate it.) And, hey, maybe the sequel will fix all the issues I have with it? Who knows. Only time (Dec 2025) will tell.

TLDR, I guess?

The movie has positives and it’s good fun, but there are so many flaws that make it both a bad movie and a disappointing FNaF adaptation. It’s great if you love it, I truly wish I did, but it just has too many flaws I personally can’t overlook.

Sorry this is an INSANE response to this ask, I have been looking for an excuse to type all this out for so long. Thank you for asking, thank you for reading, heart emoji heart emoji heart emoji.

My brain coming up with another animatic, AU, or comic idea, as if my wrist isn't dying and I can only make like one drawing a day (if even): Ok, but what if...(bla bla bla)

Me: ....... Das a good idea

*adds it to the list*

(It's so much longer than this guys... I wish my brain wasn't running constantly cause I will never complete all of these. Hopefully I'll be getting my wrist fixed soonish tho. Gotta book a follow up with my hand/wrist doctor)

Baldness is for nerds this is a battle to the death. If you have the same character/pfp on both platforms you have to decide which is the superior.

You have to explain your reasoning in the reblogs too

(THIS TIME I'M ACTUALLY UPLOADING THE RIGHT PHOTO!!)

Anyway, I have a lot of thoughts abt Vanesss. She is a very tragic character in my mind. Although mine was less following out of fear and more like. Legit mind control.

I CAN'T STOP MAKING GRAPHS FOR CHARACTERS I LOVE PATTERNS I'M SORRY

vanessa :]

The way you draw Henry Emily has my entire heart he’s SUCH a cutie :’))) (also I heavy fw your interpretation of him too, MIKE’S GOOD DAD…AHHHHH my heartttt!!!)

I'm late to this, BUT THANK YOUUU! I wanted him to be fluffy and sweet looking, like the personification of a bear!!

Gotta get someone in that boy's corner, and Henry is the man for the job

Gjgntntn I saw a post with quoting a scene from His Empire of Dirt and it got me TEARY-EYED.

Ughhh, I still feel things abt this fic despite finishing it months ago it's not fair.

Tbf I hadn't seen that specific part since... well iykyk...

It's when Will says he's gonna have an empire, and everyone's invited and they're all saying things they want in the Empire and FRITZ/MIKE SAYS HE JUST WANTS A SPOT SAVED FOR HIM

GONNA KMSSSSS/J
