Talk:Bill Cipher

It took me forever to get the picture of Bill on the window in Headhunters-and it was all for nothing. Do the images HAVE to have the circles on them to show where Bill is? And also, you are not naming the images properly. They should be, for example, S1e1 bill on window.png, or S1e8 bill on dollar bill.png. Not just "Bill Dollar.png" Them who walks the plank. Them who hunts the fish. Them who writes journals. Them who dies in 2013. "Sorry, IDK who you are describing."


 * Man, I agree. I don't really like those circles. That's why I even made a description section so we can write exactly where it is there and fans can spot it themselves. Not even sure this page should've been made yet, which is why I had it as a draft page/blog post in the first place.

Gender
EF, do you consider Bill a male or female? http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/d/d9/Pinkie_pie_mlp_fim_free_icon_by_xarazura-d49mq1t.gif Smile, Smile, Smile! http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/a/a5/Pinkie_pie_float_by_spectrumowl-d4q0t5m.gif Most likely a male because the full episode is on YouTube and remember the episodes air in other countries before it comes to the US

You're late, already finished this debate watching the episode. MALE. http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/5/5e/Bill_icon_by_sweetpegasis-d6btnuh.gifI'll be watching you... http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/5/5e/Bill_icon_by_sweetpegasis-d6btnuh.gif

bill isnt human so why would you even try to classify him within a western imperialist gender binary? seems pretty silly if you ask me. not that anyone did. but im sayin it anyway :^)

Page from 2
I don't think that the image in the opening credits is from book 2. For one, there isn't the "!!!" near the glasses, etc. I'm not sure how to rephrase the sentence though. Mf99k (talk) 02:59, August 26, 2013 (UTC)

appearance in mysteryofgravityfalls.com
Could someone please add the picture to the right to the table of Bill's appearences as I'm a newbie and don't know how? It's from "Irrational Treasure." Coylabe (talk) 17:12, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

the 10 symbols
Go to http://themysteryofgravityfalls.com/. Click on "wheel". Click on that weird llama thingy. BOOM! Pacifica.

Coylabe (talk) 17:35, September 7, 2013 (UTC)

I don't see how that's Pacifica. The llama is from Mabel's shirt.


 * It's a fansite and it's just the owner's own theory. I wouldn't worry about it.


 * On the topic of these symbols, we don't seem to have any sort of section in the article that goes into depth about said 10 symbols. We can't know what all of them mean of course, but it seems one could speculate, or have a fairly good educated guess for a few of them outside of the three Bill names. For example Robbie's bleeding heart symbol seems fairly obvious.


 * We don't do speculation, FYI. Ylimegirl (talk) 07:04, January 2, 2015 (UTC)

Antagonist?
Who thinks that Bill Cipher is the main antagonist is him, now that Gideon is gone?

JAXguy123 (talk) 03:28, January 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * It could also be Stan himself. But I think Bill may be influencing Stan, so I would call Bill the main antagonist. --RockSunner (talk) 13:55, January 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes. Its most likely thats its Bill. HobbitsLover Reality is an illusion! 14:58, April 5, 2014 (UTC)

Middle name
I believe this "middle name" is just a saying, such as when you say "Danger is my middle name," you just mean you like danger, it's not literally your middle name. "It's in the name, son! : "Be Natural!"  20:51, June 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * I agree. 21:22, June 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, it's just a saying, not  really.

The Amazing World of Gumball Wiki says there's an upcoming episode called "The Triangle"
Ok, so I looked on the amazing world of gumball wiki and it says there is an unaired episode called "The Triangle". That immediately makes me think of Bill. There is no nfo. on the episode yet, but who thinks that Bill will appear (or at least be referenced) in that episode? Here's the link to that page on the Gumball wiki, Here -(pica2003).

Really really really doubt it, but if it just so happens that he IS referenced, include it in Gravity Falls (TV series) page, section "References in Other Media". : ) "It's in the name, son! : "Be Natural!"  23:11, September 20, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip (and I admit at most it will be the eye of province) (pica2003)

Name Origin
(Sorry if this was obvious, but I don't think I saw this in the article, unless I may have missed it. I also apologize if the formatting is off, I haven't edited a wiki in years.)

I think Bill Cipher's name (at least the Cipher part) is based on the word 'decipher,' which means to "convert a code or secret text into normal language."


 * It's actually more based off of the word "cipher," which is coding a phrase so others can decipher it and read it. You were on the right track. It already states it in the trivia: "His name is a combination of Bill, possibly referring to eye of providence, which appears on dollar bills and cipher, which is the algorithm for encryption or decryption."

Time Baby
According to Bill's AMA, he does not like the Time Baby. I'd add this to the article myself but the page is protected (shakes virtual fist), so can an admin add "Time Baby" to Bill's "dislike" infobox row?   Mr B     Knew your father I did!     23:17, April 2, 2015 (UTC)

The Recent Reddit Bill Cipher Ask Me Anything...

This provides extra trivia such as his favorite song is 10 Hours of Rising Shepard Tone, He is currently possessing Alex Hirsch and in return giving him dreams that sound like Angelo Badalamenti's Dance of the Dream Man (Instrumental), He thinks that human poop culture is relatable to the lyrics of 96 Tears by Question Mark & the Mysterians and that we should fear the Blob (Not the Xmen villain but the blob from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK5jyVCdXwc)

There is more than what is posted here on the reddit so if you want more info, that is there. Just type Bill Cipher AMA into Google and it should come up! Hopefully this provided more insight to Bill's personality. And his great taste in music.

coupla minor trivia bits
-bill's voice is indeed intended to be a david lynch impression but as a nerd and pedant i feel the need to specify that it's an impression of gordon cole, lynch's character from twin peaks (who speaks VERY LOUDLY AND WITHOUT INFLECTION because he's hard of hearing)

-the "'Inceptus Nolanus overratus" part of the incantation to enter bill's dreamscape is a reference to christopher nolan's film inception (which, yes, is totally overrated!!! nolan is just not a good director or storyteller imho). it's fitting because inception is about exploring peoples' dreams.

sorry these aren't particularly interesting or revelatory but i felt like contributing something :^)

That;s already there.   Mr B     Knew your father I did!     13:17, May 9, 2015 (UTC)

I don't think the shield part was a reference to The Legend of Zelda, not Bill.

THEJJRAT (talk) 23:38, July 7, 2015 (UTC)A Mabill Shippeh

I am confused on how they removed "Omnipresense" in the ability section of this page, consdring Alex himself confirmed that he is in a interview about the show being controversal for its "Illuminati" symboism, until Alex confirm that it was suppose to represent that the charcater Bill Cipher is everywhere" They need to add that back

alias
please add the names:

-"The Beast With Just One Eye"
