Actually, Dio transforming something into a giant castle through vampire magic is a good change and DavidPro should have used it.

That should have been enough to cancel the movie but no, it just keeps going.

There was also apparently some really rough poo poo going on with the production, like one of their financiers died in a car accident and his wife took back all the money he put into the movie?

Speed King violates the second law of thermodynamics and will develop the ability to rewind time once Jobin eats the New Rokakaka. During the fight with Gappy he will explain the concept of Maxwell's Demon and how it applies to him.

This is 100% a serious guess, but if I'm right in any way I'll be super surprised.

I cannot for the life of me get a read on fuckboy's motivation though, because he seems at the same time like he's real shady and real sincere at the same time, which is probably intentional.

The moment in the fight where Johnny starts crying and his trauma with his father comes back is so great. If Valentine loved his father this much, being inspired to do all of this in part because of him, then Valentine must be a good person. And that must make Johnny, who is hated and abandoned by his father, a completely awful person, right? And so how can Johnny possibly stand in Valentine's way? At that point, getting any version of Gyro back and walking away looks pretty great

I feel like there's so much that can be said and written about Part 7 as a story of generational trauma wrt to America, taking place after the Civil War and being a story that started three years after 9/11, as well as it's characters with Johnny, Gyro and Valentine receiving some sort of "heritage" that either propels them or they have to overcome

I still want Tooru to be a red herring but it doesn't seem likely at this point. He's definitely connected to the head doctor and the rock humans somehow, maybe he even IS the head doctor and the old man is his stand or something.

I was thinking that their faces looked a little similar. Look at the noses in particular.

This is the Doppio/Diavolo twist but done in a completely not bad way. Tooru and the head doctor are two rock humans that share the same body and take turns sleeping. Their shared stand is the one that keeps showing up behind everyone. And the reason Tooru only has pictures of the doctor but never the two together is because he's made unaware of his bodies condition and only knows the doctor from the fabricated memories that protect him from realizing the truth of his nature.

That is an incredible theory and I hope you're right

If you ARE correct, I'm calling it now: Tooru starts pursuing the head doctor eventually, and his stand activates against himself. So they kinda trick the doctor into pursuing himself.
