    • @dinohunter321
      @dinohunter321 5 лет назад +526

      Primarily due to the fact that all the SCPs are under the creative commons license. This makes it harder to use them for something like a netflix show. On top of that, some SCPs (notably 173) use the likeness of something which is copyrighted, which you would need to get the rights to in order to make money off of it.

      @diemight7591 2 года назад +5

      TL;DR The SCP Foundation has multiple in-universe explanations for how it could/could've been real
      The website itself is actually an SCP. It isn't supposed to exist since all of this information is supposed to be highly classified even to the Foundation's personnel. However, whenever the Foundation attempts to take down the website, it somehow comes back a few seconds later and whatever exploit the Foundation used to take it down is now fixed. Due to the speed of it, the Foundation has deemed that it isn't run by humans and that it can't be contained. Therefore, their solution was to edit the articles within the website (The real website does allow for the editing of articles to fix spelling and plot mistakes) so as to make them seem more fictional.
      The article is SCP-101 FR
      The article will be in French as that's the website that's getting all of the information from the Foundation. Every other website supposedly just translates their articles from the French one. On the bottom left of the article, you'll see an option to select your language while remaining on the page, select International if you want to read it in English.
      There's multiple other SCPs that supposedly explain how the Foundation could actually be real or have been real in the past.
      One of them is SCP-001 (There's multiple 001s, this one is known as Good Boy), wherein the Foundation created a supercomputer that neutralized every single other SCP before neutralizing the Foundation and itself, therefore leaving our reality completely non-anomalous. It explains that the SCP website is just the remnants of the old Foundation, converted into a wiki by someone to ease navigations of their archives.

Of course you didn't mention a name that isn't or wasn't a master of horror in their day, except for maybe Hill, who is only getting started. He's definitely got his daddie's genes in him though, I loved The Fireman.

      A Netflix series would be fucking awesome, but there's no way it could happen really, collabritave fiction like this and the legal hell of making a tv show or movie do not mix well, many people would get screwed out of good money (and likely rights to their SCP's and other original concepts they came up with.) and the "chosen few" would rake it all in

  • @PhileasLiebmann

    My personal headcanon is that SCP-001 is an anomaly that simultaneously is and isn't everything people assume it to be, while actively suppressing the realization of this fact in everyone who thinks about it, convincing them that it must be a single thing the know or have imagined it to be, hence the many different SCP-001 articles.
    From this train of thought comes the interesting possibility, that all SCPs are actually incarnations of SCP-001 and all the stuff ever encountered by the Foundation are all from a single universal anomalous origin.
