Short filmTranscript
00:00 The Five Nights at Freddy's movie official trailer released the other day and it gave
00:04 us a lot.
00:05 From the crying child, to William's spring bunny, to even Golden Freddy.
00:09 This trailer was amazing.
00:11 So without further ado, please subscribe to the channel and let's go frame by frame and
00:16 break down every single easter egg and detail that I could find.
00:21 And stick to the end because I found a lot more than I thought I would.
00:25 We start with a shot of the neighborhood as Mike Schmidt, played by Josh Hutchinson, arrives
00:29 home, driving a 1995 black Honda Accord, seemingly confirming the year this movie takes place.
00:36 And this is further proven later on too.
00:38 We get a look of inside of Mike's house, where he lives with his sister Abby, played by Piper
00:43 Rubio.
00:44 Abby is basically the movie version of Elizabeth, Mike's sister in the games.
00:49 Her name also being an acronym for Baby, the animatronic Mike's sister possesses in the
00:54 games.
00:55 And of course the pink clothes most likely being another nod to Elizabeth too.
01:00 She turns to Mike, who's on the phone applying to be a security guard at Freddy Fazbear's
01:04 Pizza Place, directly talking to Matthew Lillard, playing, wait, Steve Raglin, a career counselor.
01:11 This is simply just William Afton's Elias that he's using to dissociate himself from
01:15 the murders that he committed back when Freddy's was still open.
01:19 He actually does a similar thing in the FNAF books too, donning himself Dave Miller, before
01:23 eventually revealing himself to be William Afton.
01:27 The purple tie is also a nod to the games William Afton, where he was simply represented
01:31 and constantly shown as just a purple guy.
01:35 Interestingly enough, Mike says that they've interacted before this call saying, "I was
01:39 just calling to see if that job that you offered was still available."
01:42 Which we actually see in the alternate and shorter trailer for TikTok, where William
01:46 says face to face to most likely Mike about, "It's a security gig."
01:51 And this shot from the previous teaser may be when Mike first enters the room, or possibly
01:56 says that he'll think about the job, which we know would make William very happy.
02:01 We then cut to a shot of in front of Mike's house, where we see a notice of delinquency,
02:06 which is a legal notification that payments for something is overdue.
02:10 This would be the reason why he's so desperate for a job, and will take anything.
02:14 A content creator who has visited the set, Dorko, has said that there are references
02:18 everywhere, and one of the cast members we'll talk about later stated that they're definitely
02:23 paying tribute to the games.
02:25 So I honestly think anything is fair game to call out.
02:28 And so I personally think that Mike's home door being light blue could possibly be a
02:33 nod to the light blue door at what's often theorized to be the Afton household in one
02:38 of the FNAF minigames, Midnight Motorist, which we also get another reference to later.
02:43 While he's preparing for likely his first initial talk with William, we can see a sun
02:48 clock on his wall, similar to the one from FNAF Sister Location, where Mike watches TV.
02:53 Another thing to point out is that Mike is wearing a yellow tie and dark clothing, while
02:57 William is wearing a purple tie and light clothing, a subtle nod to their family connection,
03:03 which may be revealed later in the movie, and this decision was to show that they're
03:07 opposing each other.
03:08 Over a bunch of establishing shots, William talks about how Freddy's was huge in the
03:13 80s, but has been shut down for years, and the owner is just not ready to let it go yet.
03:18 This is likely a similar situation to the FNAF books, where William just can't let
03:23 the past go, going as far as changing his name and becoming a night guard just to visit
03:28 it.
03:29 And when strangers enter the pizzeria, he is eager to show them around and flex his
03:34 familiarity to the place, before he tries to kill them with Spring Bunny that is.
03:39 He just can't let Freddy's go, which is how it seems to be playing out in the movie
03:43 too.
03:44 We see Mike and Abby arrive for the shift, Mike telling Abby that he'll be working
03:48 while she needs to sleep, which funnily enough the trailer later shows the exact opposite
03:53 of that, with Mike sleeping on the shift and Abby just wandering around.
03:58 Mike cracks open the pizzeria locks and they go inside the abandoned location.
04:02 He then opens the door to the security office, which has an "employees only" sign on
04:06 it, which is a reference to the first two games and their employees only signs, and
04:11 we then see him entering it from the small hallway.
04:13 We then see this shot from the teaser, where we see the main dining area and the kitchen.
04:18 We can also see the prize corner similar to How Wanted, which we see better later, containing
04:23 plushies and funnily enough, the masks made by Ruby's Deerfield Costume Co. of Chica,
04:29 Bonnie and Foxy, which have been around unofficially for years now, but I guess it's official
04:34 FNAF merch now, but there's also Chica and Bonnie painted on stained glass, similar to
04:39 what a church has, and we later see both a Freddy and Foxy one too.
04:43 We can also see in the top left, something similar to riding rockets from FNAF 6.
04:48 There's also drawings in the bottom left, which we see better in a later shot.
04:52 Now there's a lot of random drawings here, but oh my god, is that Balloon Boy?
04:56 That's right, Balloon Boy is here in the movie.
05:00 He most likely won't have a big role and might just be a part of a flashback, which
05:04 we know are happening due to castings for a younger Mike, younger Vanessa and Garrett,
05:09 who we'll talk about in a second.
05:10 There's also a drawing of Spring Bonnie holding hands with five kids, a nod to how William
05:15 used this costume to lure and then murder the five kids that possess these animatronics.
05:20 The rest of the drawings seem to just be completely random stuff, nothing too important to note,
05:25 although let me know in the comments if I missed anything.
05:27 We then see the silhouette of Foxy, which we saw in the first teaser, with similar tears
05:31 in its costume just like FNAF 1 Foxy.
05:34 We then see vents, which we have no idea where they lead, as this is something that wasn't
05:39 actually in the first game's location, which this movie is based off.
05:43 We later see Mike crawling through vents, which is a reference to FNAF's sister location,
05:48 where Mike crawls through the vents to get from room to room.
05:51 This may lead to a hideout of William's where he may be, and/or it's where Mike gets tortured
05:56 later in the trailer.
05:58 We then get to see more of the security office, including the iconic fan that's in almost
06:03 every FNAF game's office, as well as an Employees of the Month board featuring many YouTuber
06:08 cameos, which one of the board members, Dorko, posted a better look at.
06:12 We can see Dorko himself, 8-Bit Ryan, Razbowski, Bazumelm, and Fusion Z Gamer.
06:18 In the movie clip itself, we can also see DJ Sturff.
06:22 We then see Mike turning on the dirty Delco CM9760KBD keyboard.
06:29 That's right, I was actually able to find the exact model, surprisingly.
06:32 That's connected to Magnavox security cameras, and no, I wasn't able to find the exact model.
06:38 Closest I could find was one from 1997.
06:41 In this same shot of the cameras, we can also see the Celebrate poster on the wall.
06:45 Oddly, a dollar sign framed up, which is most likely the first ever dollar Fazbear Entertainment
06:51 ever earned at their first ever location, and they're kind of immortalizing it.
06:55 There's also a paper that I just can't make out, and the red cup exactly like the one
06:59 that we see in the first game's office.
07:01 We then see Bailey Winston's character Kim do her introductory greeting from the first
07:06 teaser, once again reciting the iconic line from the original games, "Freddy Fazbear's
07:10 Pizza, where fantasy and fun come to life."
07:13 We then see police officer Vanessa Shelley, played by Elizabeth Lally, arrive waving to
07:19 the camera.
07:20 We then see a better look at the entry containing an old Gumball machine, as Mike goes to investigate
07:25 why she's here.
07:26 He eventually lets her in, and Vanessa tells Mike about the animatronics, as we see this
07:30 drawing of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy alongside Mike, Abby, and Vanessa.
07:36 This seemingly being something, presumably, Abby draws later on in the movie, or possibly
07:41 even at the end.
07:42 Also look closely at the dartboard behind Vanessa on the wall, with the darts on 20
07:47 and 3, which of course is a note to 2023, the year the movie is releasing, and it's
07:51 also an incredibly important year for FNAF, both in and out of the story.
07:57 We then see more shots from the teaser, where Mike opens the show stage's curtains, to
08:01 have a good look at the animatronics, which believe it or not, are completely practical
08:05 and working animatronics.
08:07 And in this behind the scenes image, we can see a better look at the main three specifically.
08:12 We also get a standalone image of Freddy with director Emma Temmie.
08:16 In the initial shot where he's opening the curtains, you can also see the showtime button,
08:20 which we first saw in the first teaser, which activates the animatronics for their performance,
08:25 and is a nod to the showtime button, which was originally gonna do a similar thing in
08:29 the games, before being cut.
08:31 Mike then puts on headphones and closes his eyes, eventually somehow falling asleep later
08:36 in the night.
08:37 Also note the security logbook in this shot, a reference to Mike's logbook that was released
08:41 as a piece of merchandise, and there's also a black phone, a reference to the phone guy
08:45 from the original games.
08:47 Mike then opens his eyes to see the camera glitching out and lights going crazy, as the
08:51 speakers play George Bizet's Toriador March, which talking about the soundtrack of the
08:56 movie, Totem worked on the music for the trailer.
08:59 These are the same people who worked on the Guardians of the Galaxy 3 trailer, Across
09:03 the Spider-Verse trailer, Stranger Things 4's Riding Up That Hill trailer remix, Transformers,
09:09 Avatar and more.
09:10 But back to the trailer itself, the place lights up and we can see the Cyclone arcade
09:14 game, what could possibly be the arcade Wheel of Fortune, but without the top bit, and there's
09:19 also a genie pinball machine, an asteroids machine, and a random claw machine.
09:25 The show stage opens up and Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Mr. Cupcake begin performing.
09:30 Mike gets up to possibly restart the power and we can see the lockers in the background,
09:34 a reference to FNAF Help Wanted, where there was literally only lockers behind you in FNAF
09:39 1.
09:40 Freddy restarts it, Bonnie's guitar sparks to fuse and the lights then turn back on.
09:45 Mike then checks around to see if anything's changed and we get another look at the arcade,
09:50 dining/main area and the show stage.
09:52 This shot specifically being a one-to-one recreation of the first game's show stage
09:57 camera.
09:58 We then finally get our first good look at Foxy, who's actually wearing real shorts instead
10:03 of just having fake shorts painted onto him.
10:05 We can see his hook and his tared/withered body.
10:08 As we see a shot of possibly the guard from the first trailer being dragged along the
10:12 ground, Vanessa keeps narrating about the kids going missing in the 80s and how the
10:17 police searched Freddy's top to bottom but couldn't find the bodies.
10:21 This is one-to-one with the game's lore and even the book's lore, with how the lack of
10:25 evidence is actually the main reason that William could get away and not be arrested
10:29 to begin with.
10:30 Interestingly enough, in this shot Vanessa has regular clothes on, so it seems that they
10:35 do come back the next night too and this all doesn't just take place in one single night
10:40 like some people originally thought.
10:42 We then see Abby coming out of the restrooms and making her way back, only to see Freddy
10:46 activate, his eyes now glowing red.
10:49 We then cut to a shot of the exterior of the building, having a good look at the Freddy
10:53 Fazbear's Pizza place sign.
10:55 We then cut to a shot of some characters we heard were confirmed but haven't seen up until
10:59 this point, including a new character named Carl, played by Joseph Folliquin, who's actually
11:04 wearing a shirt of the Midnight Motorist game from FNAF 6 that I was talking about earlier,
11:09 and he tweeted that they wanted to pay tribute to the games as much as they could.
11:13 Hank, played by Christian Stokes, carrying a baseball bat and Max, played by Kat Conner
11:18 Sterling.
11:19 We really don't know much about these characters, but Christian says not to rule Hank out just
11:23 yet and Kat says...
11:25 "What I can say without breaking an NDA, and it's kind of obvious now, but Max does have
11:29 a story that ties some things together and affects the outcome of the story."
11:35 We then see a shot of the supply closet/sanitorium room, where we can see Bonnie rising, and
11:40 we then cut to the inside where Hank turns around to see Bonnie, back to another shot
11:45 of the outside where he slams his head against the window.
11:48 As Vanessa talks about the children possessing the animatronics, we then see more of Mike's
11:53 seemingly hallucination breakdown in the woods.
11:56 Following Bonnie's, outline marked on the ground, a close-up on the kid who possesses
12:00 Foxy with a hook, played by Asher Colton-Spence, as it cuts to a shot of Foxy's actual hook,
12:06 before cutting back to the rest of the children.
12:09 Bonnie's possessor Jeremy, played by David Huston-Doddy.
12:12 Golden Freddy's possessor Cassidy Andrew-Michael, we don't know his name, played by Grant Freely,
12:17 who interestingly enough had to dye his hair blonde for this movie.
12:22 Foxy's possessor Fritz, Freddy's possessor Gabriel, which we can see a behind the scenes
12:26 look of here, played by Xander Matteo, and Chica's possessor Susie, played by Joffrey
12:31 Love.
12:32 We then briefly cut back to Freddy's to see Mike and Vanessa looking at the animatronics,
12:36 while talking about them being possessed, and we saw another behind the scenes image
12:40 of this scene here, which interestingly enough, the framing of this shot seems a bit intentional,
12:45 with a Foxy mask right in front of Mike's face, just like how he wore the Foxy mask
12:50 in the games in the Bite of '83 minigames.
12:54 We then cut to Mike turning around slowly, not seeing Freddy right behind him.
12:58 We then see a full body look of Foxy, the only one who up until this point we haven't
13:03 really seen much of.
13:05 We then see Abby coming back for seemingly the second night, note the different clothing,
13:09 but on her own in this specific moment, which do note the green lighting for later.
13:14 We get a good look at Bonnie with his eyes red and angry, which I theorise to only happen
13:18 when the spirits are angry.
13:20 Interestingly though, you can see lines around the middle of its sides, as if the mask may
13:24 come off at some point, and look similar to Withered Bonnie.
13:28 Speaking of this, in the behind the scenes image of the main three animatronics, Chica
13:33 looks like she also has an odd line, but this time near her mouth, possibly being like Withered
13:39 Chica.
13:40 We then see Foxy turn away from Abby, and then get angry when seeing Mike, juxtaposed
13:45 to Vanessa saying that they want to make her like them.
13:48 And this is why I think Vanessa may be wrong about this, and that the other children actually
13:53 want to stop her from becoming like them, and protect her.
13:57 Just like in the books where the protagonists first think that they're going to kill them,
14:00 but it turns out they're not and that William is the only threat in the building.
14:04 As Foxy was neutral looking at Abby, and only got angry after seeing someone else like Mike
14:11 there.
14:12 We then see Mr Cupcake get angry and eyes turn red, seemingly confirming that the red
14:16 eyes only happen when the spirits are angry, or possibly when someone like William is in
14:22 the building.
14:23 We then see Mike running in a random mall before cunning to Mike asking how to stop
14:27 the animatronics.
14:29 We then see another shot of Max looking into Freddy's mouth, only to see the ghost of
14:33 Gabriel reaching out for her as she screams.
14:36 We then see her get pulled up in the chair fall.
14:39 We see Foxy slamming his foot onto a ball, and then Abby hiding behind a centipede arcade
14:44 machine, as Vanessa says it's too late.
14:47 Freddy looking very angry, then turns to the camera as Mike looks scared.
14:52 It's made to seem like he's looking at Freddy in this moment, but we then cut to Spring
14:56 Bonnie, the costume William wears to lore and/or murder, humming the Torridor March,
15:02 with a green light behind him.
15:04 A nod to FNAF 3's green colour scheme, where we see the spring-locked version of Spring
15:09 Bonnie, Spring Trap.
15:10 It's very possible that we see a scene similar to the spring-locked scene in this movie,
15:15 and a nice detail to how accurate the movie is being to the games, is that we can see
15:20 in this behind the scenes look at Spring Bonnie's mask, it's clearly yellow and has less of
15:24 his left ear, exactly like the simplified sprite showed the Withered Spring Bonnie suit
15:29 even pre-Spring Lock had.
15:31 Also the green lighting in the background could possibly mean that this scene, where
15:35 Abby is on her own exploring the main area, takes place in the same scene.
15:40 When William finally arrives and possibly goes on a hunt for her.
15:44 Abby then calls for Mike and he tells her to go, which she then does and if you look
15:48 at the left closely, you can actually see Freddy completely knocked over.
15:53 What did they do to him?
15:54 We then see a car driving away containing Garrett, played by Lucas Grant, Mike's younger
15:59 brother as Mike looks distraught.
16:02 This seems to be a part of the hallucination breakdown sequence, as Mike's younger brother
16:06 is most likely dead by this point, as we may actually be getting a recreation of the Bite
16:12 of 83 from the games, where Mike accidentally kills his younger brother.
16:16 This seems likely due to them casting a young Mike for flashbacks and him calling Lucas
16:21 his little brother in multiple Instagram posts.
16:25 We then cut to Bonnie and Chica turning to the cameras, in front of the vents that we
16:29 saw earlier.
16:30 Chica is interestingly missing Mr. Cupcake, who hear me out, she may have sent in the
16:35 vents to go after Mike, as we've seen in FNAF VR that the Cupcake can move around on
16:40 its own.
16:41 We then pan around to see an unknown dead woman on the floor, which could quite possibly
16:45 be Mike's mum in a flashback and to show why Mike and Abby are on their own.
16:50 We then cut to Vanessa in a hospital with Mike by her side before cutting to a continuation
16:55 of the shot earlier of Mike running in a random mall, but he's now beating up a random guy
17:01 as a security guard for the mall.
17:03 He most likely gets fired because of this incident at the start of the movie, causing
17:07 him to then search for and get the job at Freddy's.
17:10 We then get a good look at William Afton's spring Bonnie as he pulls out a knife, and
17:14 you can actually see William behind the teeth.
17:17 We then cut to Mike with seemingly claw marks on his back, running away from something and
17:22 trying to get out, getting cornered and caught.
17:25 This leading to the next shot where he's in a torture machine, which we got another good
17:29 look at here.
17:30 We then get a brand new logo for the movie before cutting to a 1995 Honda Odyssey taxi,
17:36 further putting the year the movie takes place as 1995 with the number 5550188 on its side,
17:44 which for anyone curious isn't a real number.
17:47 555 is actually commonly used in and reserved for fictional stories due to old films and
17:53 shows accidentally using real numbers, leading to prank calls etc.
17:58 Anyways, the taxi is containing Corey X Kenshin, another YouTuber, who then sees Golden Freddy,
18:03 who's weirdly enough sitting next to a really happy Abby, with a broken ear and only one
18:08 eye.
18:09 To me this continues to establish that the animatronics aren't actually trying to hurt
18:14 Abby, but instead protect her.
18:16 You can also see what appears to be dried blood around his mouth.
18:20 Could this possibly further mean that we'll really see the unwithered version of Golden
18:25 Freddy, Fredbear, commit the bite of 83?
18:28 I personally hope so.
18:30 We then cut to a shot of Abby and Golden Freddy in front of Freddy's, holding hands as we
18:35 see the movie releases on October 27th in theatres and on Peacock.
18:40 Finally we then see that the story was written by Scott Cawthon and the screenplay was written
18:45 by him, Emma Tammey and Seth Cudback.
18:48 Jason Blum, the producer of the movie, was interviewed by IGN, stating "I really love
18:53 a challenge.
18:54 Scott had been working on it as a movie with the studio for a while, and that didn't work
18:59 out.
19:00 This is many years ago.
19:01 Everyone said we could never get the movie done, including by the way, internally in
19:05 my company.
19:06 I was made fun of for pursuing this, this thing that could never happen, and that always
19:11 lights a fire under me to say I bet I can do this.
19:15 It was many, many, many years of development.
19:18 I've grown to know Scott very well over that time, and I've become very fond of him.
19:23 I think he's a really, really special person.
19:26 A really creative person, probably more creative than he even gives himself credit for, in
19:31 some ways, I would say.
19:33 And we had to find a structure that would work for us to make this movie together.
19:37 Blum admitted that it took them six or seven years to find that structure, but that it
19:41 worked out in the end.
19:43 We finally found it and we finally made the movie.
19:46 And as you can hear by my voice, I'm extremely proud of the movie that we made together."
19:52 And that's it.
19:53 Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss my massive breakdown on the movie when it
19:56 releases.
19:57 Hope you guys have a good day and I'll see you guys soon.
