Ok, so in Gravity falls we don’t know Dippers real first
name.
What we do know is that a couple of generations
above them were another set of pines twin’s names Stanley and Stanford. At least someone in the pines family gets a
kick out of twins with ridiculously similar names. My girlfriend pointed out
that possibly Dipper was the same, and maybe the reason they gave only one twin
a nickname is because the names were similar, causing confusion. Picking a word
out she thought of “Gable” After confirming that Gabel was in fact a real name,
we looked up the meaning and…
Triangular…
Just a thought.
In the AMA Bill mentioned that if he had Dipper`s name he would go by a nickname too, implying it was a dumb name; Gabel seems to fit that description okay.
Not to hijack this post, but consider this: Stanford and Stanley don’t actually rhyme, they just begin the same way. So maybe Dipper’s real name just starts the same way as Mabel’s.
Sharpay and Ryan’s version of “What I’ve Been Looking For” peaked at #35 on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts while Troy and Gabriella’s version peaked at #67
That’s because the entire Musical device of HSM is corrupted.
In a real High School musical, it’s show first, talent second, as terrible as it sounds, and Ryan and Sharpay, who had been leading these muscals for years, would have 100% nailed the lead roles in any realistic musical set by a high school.
They’re great singers, and they have STYLE. They’re poppy, and fun to watch, full of energy, and they have PRESENCE on stage.
Troy and Gabriella, while they sound beautiful, would be better suited to sing in high end parties or restaurants, not in a musical. They’re…. bland.
When I go see Beauty and The Beast, I don’t want Belle and Lumiere to be monotone and slow, with soft voices. I want powerful voices, strong acting, and quick paced choreography.
As someone who has over a decade of Musical Theater under my belt, I know what makes good shows. Troy and Gabriella would be great understudies.
