The Rob Schneider “Hidden Toilet Paper” Theory
Waters: I like the bidet element - that makes a lot of sense. You have number one, you have number two, and then the cleanup.” This theory has since been fleshed out on Reddit, with an astonishing amount of detail. On the red carpet for 2013’s Gravity, MTV News ’ Josh Horowitz asked Bullock about the seashells, and she said, “Well, think of a bidet, right? There’s several processes. That’s the anathema of the future - that doesn’t seem futuristic. I mean, with two good cups of coffee, you wouldn’t be able to “grab” anything. I also don’t know why you’d have to pull anything out. We have many goals for our future, but less interaction with the feces is probably a good goal to have. Waters: I don’t think I told him that - no, that’s not true. In it, Stallone had this to say: “Okay, this may be bordering on the grotesque, but the way it was explained to me by the writer is you hold two seashells like chopsticks, pull gently and scrape what’s left with the third.” A fan-drawn diagram of Stallone’s theory (expanded to show that the seashells are disposable). In 2006, Stallone was asked about the three seashells in an interview with Ain’t It Cool News. To get things started, we begin with the method offered by no less than Mr. Waters has heard quite a few of them over the years, but, for the first time, he’s addressing all of the seashell theories - no matter how detailed - in an effort to finally put the subject to rest. How they work is never answered in the movie, which has led to a wide variety of theories on the matter, put forth by everyone from the film’s stars to diagram-drawing fans online. Instead of using toilet paper in the future, people make use of three metallic-looking seashells that sit right beside the toilet. Things are way different in the future - sex is obsolete, cursing is outlawed, Arnold Schwarzenegger has been president and Taco Bell has replaced every other restaurant - but the most perplexing change has to do with how things are done in the bathroom. If you’re brushing up your Stallone movies right now, Demolition Man is the one where Sly is a cop who gets cryogenically frozen in the 1990s, only to wake up in the brave new world of 2032. Waters was the screenwriter on a variety of films that we’re all familiar with - from Batman Returns to Heathers - yet the movie he’s received all these queries about is the 1993 Sylvester Stallone action comedy Demolition Man, which briefly features three very mysterious seashells. Along with that, he’s had to entertain a wide array of gruesome theories about feces and urine that come at him from the most unexpected of people.
For almost 30 years now, screenwriter Daniel Waters has been asked the same question over and over again.
