You are an experience!
Make sure you're a good experience.
The new theory is that the big now-original theory for who wrote the journals is wrong. Dipper will reach that conclusion in the first half of the episode, and then realize that it's wrong (possibly without finding the original author) at the end.

So, basically, if Old Man McGucket is actually the author as this trailer states pretty much outright, Disney has no qualms about what they put in trailers and that production leak from ages ago is real. But if someone else, like Stanley Pines, is actually the author, it was all a long con by Alex Hirsch. This trailer and that production leak were meant to mislead us. :tinfoil:

Dipper has a line that's half bleeped out that ends with "wrote the journal?" Listen to it again.

Yep, that's what I had in mind. Each syllable is there, and several of the phonemes are more or less intact. With the care given to the rest of the trailer (like the hidden messages in the "artifacting"), it's clearly intentional.

Since there are multiple journals, can't there be multiple authors?

The three journals are designed and bound like volumes from a set, not like unrelated books.

There's also the fact that each volume had a piece of the blueprint for the device in the bunker below the Shack. Seems odd for three different authors to have a piece of a blueprint and put it in their book.

Also, later journals have things like the Bill entry, where the author corrects an earlier thing and admits to being wrong.

Looking at Journal 3, at least, it's possible there was a previous owner before Dipper and after the writer since there's a number of section in red ink as addendums or edits to the text in black ink and the handwriting is different.

Oh, certainly that's possible. I'm just thinking about the difference between journal 2 and 3 on that guy.

There's actually a pretty good reason why this wouldn't work - some of the messages are coded into the paper itself. There was a large blacklight annotation section we saw at the beginning of this season, and who knows how much more information was hidden in them, and how.

I mean, maybe there's something you only know if you overlay five consecutive pages and shine a light through the embedded wires to project it.

Having access to some of the info is better than losing it all. :colbert:
