The Minecraft Movie Couldnt Possibly Recreate Even A Shred Of The Humor Found In These Screenshots

So did anyone else catch the lighting? there was yellowish lighting when Janus was onscreen

and y’all are never gonna fucking believe what color lighting was in the background of Thomas interviewing the sides

Sanders Sides fans:

these guys are infesting my brain once again [ft. my Janus and Remus puppet designs]

> Januspuppets arms are those fuzzy pipe cleaner things

> yes Remuspuppet has real human hands with real human flesh. dont ask where he got them

My theory is that the Orange side is only talking through Logan because he can't appear as long as Thomas has not acknowledged his existence and the contradiction he create with Logan: Janus first impersonated Patton, taking his form, voice and place in the room... and only appeared as himself after Logan asked Thomas if he wanted to learn something new about himself and spoke Janus' name. To appear Remus had to literally knock Roman unconscious and stand at his place in the room... and he started appearing after Logan tried to start a discussion about Thomas' intrusive thoughts and was repeatedly shushed by Patton Virgil and Thomas. I think they can't appear together at first because the oposite sides create a paradox in Thomas' personality which at first is hard to accept. He can be both a good, moral person (Patton) and also lie and be selfish sometime (Janus). He has a wonderful imagination (Roman) that also let him to imagine the worst possible situation (Remus). Logan represents order, logic, being calm and thinking before acting. The fact that we got a glimpse of the Orange side when Logan (and Thomas on his phone) lost his cool means to me that the Orange side is Thomas anger but also the impulsive actions he might do when he is angry. So in my opinion Logan's eyes glowing orange means that the Orange side represents anger and impulsiveness, that he is trying to come through but that he can't because Thomas has not yet accepted this part of himself and has a hard time balancing the idea that he can be logical and collected but also angry and short tempered sometimes.

Oh my gosh, you're completely right that both Janus and Remus have completed replaced other sides in the conversation before, most likely because they contradicted each other in Thomas' head. It would be reasonable to conclude one cannot act rationally and with anger at the same time. That's so cool.

Scrolling through the sanders sides tag after the asides drop like

Okay but Logan having met the orange side before, and just not knowing it because he wasn't wearing his glasses at the time. So he just thought that Virgil was being a little extra spicy that day, and sat with him in the kitchen making him coffee while just talking about random stuff he was researching.

So when the orange side does his big reveal, and says:

"Logic, we meet again~"

Logan has no idea what he's talking about.

do you have any songs that you feel correspond to mattie and flora? (any lucy dacus and/or boygenius is an added bonus)

Here’s an entire playlist I have going for them!!

But a Lucy Dacus song I always attach to them is triple dog dare 10000%

I love the idea that the orange side was all docile and content to be hidden away by Janus, up until the very moment that Roman called Logan stupid. Then and only then did he decide to yank the reigns away from Logan, and throw down with Roman.

A paper ball was all he could manage before Janus had him back under wraps, but he wanted to do so much more.

And since then he's been kind of waiting, and watching Logan's feelings grow and grow more uncontained everytime something like that happens again.

Like a pet cat.

Can we talk about Thomas' outfit in the anniversary video for a sec?

Because the first thing I thought when I saw it was WAIT I have seen that orangey jacket before

It was in LNTAO with this lovely blue (*cough* Logan's color *cough*) shirt. Ya know, the episode where Logan had his little uncharacteristic outburst and threw a paper ball at puppet Roman?

And where the lighting behind him up the stairs has a suspiciously orange cast to it?

Yep. There's also a glimpse of a very similar jacket (in addition to some other orange items) in WTIT in Thomas' room when one of Remus' contraptions is set in motion, right before Nico appears and Logan goes all orange-eyes at Remus.

And then it appears again in the anniversary video, where we get yet another teaser of the orange side in the end card. Seems like the jacket is a subtle little nod to the orange side if you ask me.

ALSO

Thomas' shirt in the anniversary video is reminiscent of the flower/skull shirt he wore in CLBG:

Possibly the skull motif in the anniversary special shirt is a hint that there is another unknown, possibly dangerous, side (aka orange) on the horizon? This would be in line with Thomas also wearing a shirt with a skull on in it in CLBG, when Janus was introduced.

The colors on the anniversary shirt also make me think that it’s meant to represent all the sides introduced so far, since it includes all their colors (red for Roman, blue for Logan and Patton, purple for Virgil, yellow for Janus, and green for Remus) but notably no orange. These sides have all been acknowledged and accepted (more or less) by Thomas and he recognizes them as an essential part of himself and his decision-making process, which corresponds with them being represented by the shirt, an item of clothing which (despite what Remus would claim) is an essential part of Thomas’ outfit.

And if the shirt represents the known sides, the jacket represents the orange side. The jacket is a part of Thomas' outfit, but it's not as essential or as important as his shirt, and it is separated from Thomas himself by a degree by his shirt, which aligns with how the orange side is currently situated; he is still a part of Thomas, but he is unknown and unaccepted, so while he still has a presence and shows up indirectly on occasion, he stands apart from both the others and Thomas.

Anywho, I think we've seen that Thomas' clothes do tend to hold some meaning (think the space shirt in the Logan-centric WTIT and the shifting floral/skull design in CLBG) and I don't think any item of clothing has ever been worn twice like the orangey jacket has, so maybe this is overanalyzing something insignificant but maybe it's not?

TL;DR: Thomas' jacket represents the orange side and shows up in connection with him several times, while Thomas' shirt represents all the other sides and his acceptance of them.
