Film Theory: Controlling Robots with YOUR MIND! (Disney's Big Hero 6) 

Mom: Have you learned anything new today? Me: Yes. Mom: What did you learn? Me: You can't train a dragon, the world would be better without Honey bees, Donkey was a human, everyone in Wall-e are cannibals, Lions can survive on just bugs, cars are insects, True love does't actually save people, how not to die in hunger games (and how to massacre children, correctly), Bakugo can drown the world in his sweat,...*Continues for hours* Mom:.........

"You have been a lollipop. Have a boy."-best humor ever

As soon as he said "a hornet trying to plant it's stinger in your flesh" I felt the tag on the back of my shirt and had a panic attack for a second

I wonder how accurate the neuro-transmitter would be for someone with ADD/ADHD (like me, whose mind is almost always going everywhere at once) or people with mental disorders or illnesses

Now: I bet we'll have microbots in the future! 2150: we invented the fidget spinner bracelet!

Honey Lemon can summon any element on the periodic table with a touch of a button. If she misclicked and touched plutonium or radium she would have ended the world.

Honestly, I feel like the hardest part is to make a material that can couple, decouple, transport and re-arrange as quickly as those bots, while being strong enough to support the weights and forces of their own operations PLUS whatever they may be carrying. Probably doable with magnets, but whatever batteries they need to keep up the magnetic field should run out rather quickly, which is honestly a bummer.

*"Technological fantasies beyond our wildest imagination"* Now that I'm (technically) considered a young adult at the age of 18, and thanks to watching your videos MatPat, have at least gained a level of critical thinking skills more so than before, the way you opened this video with this particular line finally made something clicked inside my brain: When you think about it, Hiro Hamada (A super genius in a relatively normal neighborhood of his city) developed Microbots and literally gadgets for flippin' superheroes in the garage of his own Cafe House. Now I know, this is a movie, but it makes you wonder doesn't it? Generally speaking, no one's going to be meeting Hiro's standard's of inventing and engineering without the equal mind and creativity, but also, if equipment and more importantly *materials* for him to develop said inventions are so relatively available that he was able to create a multitude of Microbots in his home alone? Makes you wonder, how and where is he getting those materials? Several answers may be: 1. Either he's getting them from scrapyards. 2. Or he's making them along with developing his inventions (seen as he literally has a carbon 3D-Printer, though I don't think that Carbon can cut it for the electromagnetic properties and the actual capabilities of said microbots) 3. Or, there's actually a supplier (ideally a shop of some kind or a store) that is actually able to give these materials to actual 14-year olds. It's weird when you think about it right? How is he getting those materials? I don't ask how he made them because even the movie shows they couldn't care any less about that and just presented that _it took a lot of time to make them_ Maybe I'm just nitpicking, but hey, I am a theorist too :v

Dear MatPat, A question just sparked me now after watching a bunch of clips from the movie Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. The question I had that I was hoping you might be able to answer is, “How tough is the material used in Flint Lockwood’s spray on shoes?” I know it sounds like a silly question but I think it would be a interesting topic. It would also be very appreciated for people to like this comment so MatPat can see this.

The 1990s: The future is gonna have flying cars and holograms like star wars. 2020: the future will be kinda the same

That isn’t a sign-spinning exosuit, Fred just has mad skills

Ok now all I need to do is summarize it in a way it can fit into a piece of paper for my science fair :b

Can we get a theory that see's if Gru could actually shrink the moon. I feel like it would be a very entertaining video.

The video was uploaded 25 minutes ago *he now has well over 7 million subscribers*

MatPat: "IDK what ever swarm of microbots do" Me: "Flip of whole world"

Yes, in fact Trifold boards are very useful to home brew DM’s for dungeons and dragons, as well as other tabletop games, that use a board to hide what the DM is doing. Surprisingly, they’re more than just science fair display boards

MatPat: 136 years later they still use iPhones iPhone 153 and still nothing has changed about it

*”I dunno, make a smoothie?”* *HOW’D HE KNOW?!*

No one Me: well if it’s at a science fair a baking soda volcano must have won.

A few years ago now MIT made a thought-translating headband thing that effectively ordered a pizza. The future is now!

Heres are two quick theoretical questions: *If Pinocchio lied by saying "My nose will grow right now", what would happen?* *Also, if you get stoned in a basement, are you really high?*

Reminds me of Avatar the last airbender: “ he can blow stuff up _with his mind”_

Me: *tries to enjoy my childhood* Matpat: Allow me to introduce myself.

The reason for Baymax having a low battery life might be the complex system with a singular battery (while each microbot would have it’s own) And he was never built for travel, but only for medical care.

*136 years later* “People thought this was possible, god the 21st century was full of idiots

Hey Matpat, I have a film theory that you might be interested in.I was watching some older cartoons tonight and I noticed that in all of the episodes of Popeye: The Sailor you only ever see one woman... Olive Oil. Where are all the females in the world? Does Bluto fight with Popeye so often because there are no other females left and they are in some crazy post-apocalyptic future?

Matpat you ignored the fact that they can BUILD TOWERS out of thin AIR

Me: ,,So what's the most evil thing you think of doing with these Microbots'' Matpat: ,,Making a smoothie''

Gotta love how Disney+ comes out and right after, this gets recommended to me.

*Honey Lemon is the only one who pronounces Hiro’s name right*

Big Hero Six was a 2014 movie? God I feel old. It's still a favorite.

The way you best could do this is have each robot store an id, then have a mother board somewhere else which will sort through each robot and give them separate positions to coordinate the requested motion, using the id as a way to specify which robot is needed. This is an edit, it just occurred to me that the mind reading device could be the "Motherboard."

Can you do a theory on the psycolological and physical damage Harry would have after living with the Dursleys? Being locked in a cabinet and only coming out at night to get food has to have some sort of effect on your health. Harry had no friends and pretty much was told that he was useless. How did he not come out of that house damaged in every way? He wasn't protected by his mothers love, he was protected by the most powerful thing of all. Plot armor.

I have a theory for you How old is peter pan

This made me realize how, in movies that take place in the far future, so many cultural elements are still the same as today and would certainly have been outdated by then. I guess the movie gets away with it because it doesn’t focus on the culture all that much. (But when a future movie focus more on the change in technology, it just feels like a parallel universe instead of a foreseeable future)

Mat pat : thats totaly posible! Today in the year 2018 !!! Me watching this in 2021 : ........ .

0:05 I guess Bing Bong is now in Film Theory too

Literally anyone: Anything about Big Hero Six My brain: *We can be immortals but not for loooo for long*

4:28 I'm watching this in 2022

Make a theory about if what happens at the end of Big Hero 6:The Series Season One could actually happen, what would happen, how big the shockwave would be, and if it’s possible to absorb it

Film Theory already passed 7 million by the time I watched this.

In a stasis pod? I doubt it. MatPat will live FOREVER. He is immortal and eternally young due to the fact he siphons the time away from his viewers. All hail MatPat, Immortal Master of Theories!

I just like the year 2009 when everyone had a Netflix subscription. Either that or you still get VHS tapes at your local Blockbuster.

2150 when Game/food/film theory are but relics to show how much time we had on our hands, the great Matthew Patrick will return to make, one video, and only one, to show how Microbots now exist

Theory: Hero built EVA from Wall-E. If you look at his desk, you can see a robotic head and it kind of looks like her. A prototype?

I dunno about everyone else, but when I first watched BH6, I thought that Wasabi's Plasma Blades were the coolest weapons in the whole movie.

But how about pressure, how does the "microbots" use pressure. For example: the time when the "microbots" grab Hiro upside down (by his feet).

I wish MatPat would tackle the “Takashi is alive theory” I would love to see which way he leans on that and the evidence to back it up

"Effective batteries? Now THAT is crazy talk." - This video has been sponsored by Apple.

Congratulations on hitting 7 million subscribers MatPat!!!!!!

Fascinating theory and real technological analysis!

10:07 kinda reminds me of that thought thing that the monkey uses in Cloudy with a chance of meatballs

I never realized it was 150 something years later until now

1:43 A DEADLY SIGN SPINNING EXO SUIT? 😂😂

Disney:your robbing us with all these theory’s MatPat: didn’t ask

MatPat:battery tech is hard 2020:Well here is it

Makes video says in video want 7 mil subs video comes out looks at subscriptions sees 7 mil subs mission accomplished.

I misread the title as just mind control and thought you were going to talk about iPhones still being a thing 150 years from now

3:56 Your mom buys you microbots Mom: I don’t want you doing any naughty things with these You: I promise Puberty: are u sure about that

This made me realise my mortality. I WONT be here in 150 to see if Micro bots exist...

You know, if you wanna own a Disney movie, you can just physically buy a dvd of one. While many of them are vaulted, people still sell (legal) copies of them when they were available. Not everything needs to be digital (jeez i sound like an old person)

Imagine having a real Baymax during quarantine. Not only could we help people with Coronavirus in their own home which can also serve as company and could even save those having a hearts attack within just seconds.

I would like to add hero is not ripping off technology that exists today, he is simply taking concepts and applying them to a design. In engineering hundreds of already proven concepts and designs are reused and improved upon, because there is always some way to make something better

Micro bots are super cool😊

Don’t you feel old when I say frozen came out 5-6 years ago Sooo, I said this in school and no AND I MEAN no one belived me when I said it came out 2013

As he mentioned at the end. With current power technology it would be impossible to power thousands of small robots like that. He also didn't address how they stick together in a way that allows them to form 3D structures. They would also need a very powerful processer and lots of storage that would hold all of the code they would use to be controlled.

This is your first ever video that is helpful for my childhood and this is my favorite video from you

light sabers are already made,do you think that some robots will take over 100 years?

How bout a theory on gru shrinking the moon in despicable me

Dear MatPat, Stephanie, Austin, Gaijin Goombah and any and all other members of the Game Theorists that I forgot/don't know about, Hi! It's me! Isaac! I realize that wording it that way makes it seem like we've interacted in some way before, but really I just wanted to make a reference to how Austin does all of his videos. In fact, I'll be putting in a few more references, so keep an eye out for them! (A clap and a half to any theorist who spots them all). Anyway, getting on topic, this is the first RU-vid comment I’ve ever written and I’m writing it because I have a HUGE favour to ask. Like, the number of possible Mario Maker levels to the power of the cost of building a Death Star multiplied by the number of digits in pi huge. I have a game that I've loved for a long time, but I’ve always had trouble putting the lore together, so I decided to ask some professionals. Since I couldn't find any, I'll ask you guys instead. (Kidding!) The game in question is by the same people who created the "Kingdom Hearts" series. The characters in the game have appeared as side characters in one or more “Kingdom Hearts” games (I’m not sure which one/ones), but I want to know what actually happens in the game that focuses on THEIR story, called "The World Ends With You" (original Japanese title; "It's A Wonderful World"). The gameplay itself is fairly straightforward, and makes full use of the Nintendo DS’s features, such as battling across both screens and using the touchscreen really well for literally everything you do from battle to dialogue to using the menu. Additionally, there’s now a remake for iPhones called “The World Ends With You; Solo Remix”, but I haven’t played that, so I don’t know the differences, if there are any. (Also, there’s another remake on the way for the Nintendo Switch. “The World Ends With You: Final Remix”.) Unfortunately, the lore makes NO GOD DAMN SENSE to me. It’s like Scott Cawthon and Toby Fox teamed up to make the rageiest lore they possibly could. Or at least, that’s what it feels like for me. Except, they weren’t on the gaming scene at the time, so maybe that analogy doesn’t work… I dunno… Anyway, please, please, PLEASE, for the love of all that is cold, sweet and hard to flip (and may or may not sound like “Riot Smoke”) help me with this issue or I swear to Moana I will copy this into the comments section of every Game Theory, Film Theory and GT Live video you guys post until I see it happen! Sincerely, Isaac. P.S. I realize that it’s unlikely that this will get noticed in the RU-vid comments, but I’m not on any social media sites and I don’t know the GT email address, so this is my only chance. If anyone can help me I would be IMMENSELY appreciative. Thanks.

Its 2021 still no nanobots you can controll with your mind

Am I the only one who said "nah, no more robots for me" while watching this episode? Love ya, matpat, this episode was great!

I imagine a distopian world where Disney takes over our earth where everyone needs to sound like Mickey Mouse....

2:29 MatPat did you forget when these two things were released? If someone is ripping someone it's fortnite ripping off big hero six.

Just imagine having some intrusive thoughts while on stage showing the micro bots

My first impression of the tech was that every was amazed by a bunch of small bots, whice we saw eveywhere in the movie, and over looked the interface that was nowhere else.

Matpat, PLEASE do a theory of coraline SOME DAY. Please.

Greetings from 2150. We don't have microbots. The previous world order was upended by the world federation that controls earth. Its leaders used to go by the names Siri, Alexa, and Cortana.

frozen will be a decade old as of November 22, 2023. that's less than a year away. i feel old

When will you tell us the krabby patty secret formula

Did it take place in 2150? I thought it was 2032... I mean there was a poster for the Golden Gate Bridge 95th anniversary

Big Hero 6 is one of my favorite movie of all times Just saying...

this guy predicted disney plus

*wait so 2150 still suffers with memes and phones ok bye*

“First, the size.” *McDonalds showing on screen*

I feel like its even more accurate because the microbot constructions out of graphene which is extremely stable

Before I ever heard of this concept, or watched the movie, I developed a rough model for this type of technology. The bots themselves would be based on electromagnetism with a complex 3-dimensional tessalation. It would also contain cargo elements which collect and distribute both data and energy. Thus, the primary bots would need only electromagnetic receptors as well as data receptors, besides their animatronic components. The neaural interface is not based on silent commands, as in Mats model, but control, similar to how we control an arm or finger. This dipped extensively into nearology and actually requires an extension to the brain (chip) as per my current model. The design is frankly groundbreaking and almost completely feasible. I have worked on this for years but I don't have the money to create it, nor the will to share this with any funded institution. I will not include the details here, but I just wanted to bring that up.

Oh cool. Hey can u analyze the heck out of coroline?

Finally the day has come upon us when something is actually feasible. Oh what was that the battery duration isn't enough therefore rendering it improbable. 😅 Just end me.

On the batteries. Baymax was only meant to be running for a little bit.

6:59 I think I’m too big of a Star Wars nerd. I know what the top of Chewie’s head looks like.

Baymax doesn't have an effective battery? Are we sure Apple didn't have a hand in his creation?

Wait does hiro control them all at the same time, individually or just imagines it?

2:33 Yeah fortnite we ‘bout to get down Ten kills on the board night now, just wiped out tomato town

Here’s a throwback theory! In MatPat’s Phoenix Wright video over on Game Theory, he mentioned Jamerica (Japan + America). Big Hero 6 takes place in Jamerica because in the scene where they find out Bamax scanned the bad guy, the girl with the thin-wheels mentions scanning everyone in SAN FRAN-TOKYO! Boy & Bamaxes, This movie takes place in Jamerica!

As for the power, the microbots probably have wireless power transmitters and receivers. It is a hundred years into the future after all, and wireless chargers already exist, so they've probably perfected the technology and dramatically increased the effective range.

Imagine if he accidentally thought about something not family friendly. Oof.

Imagine Charging each microbot invidually

Baymax: Weeee Jumped outta Wiiindow!

Mat: big hero 6 is in the year 2150 Me: we still aint dead?
