The internet has no shortage of feuds, from celebrities to families to movies about the multiverse. A new one that’s appeared recently is between two horror dolls. Some of you may not know this, but Chucky of the Child’s Play franchise has his own Twitter account (@ChuckyIsReal), as does M3GAN (@meetM3GAN). Over the past few days, they’ve been taking shots at one another.
After the trailer for M3GAN dropped, Chucky retweeted the video with the caption, “everybody’s tryna be me.” Ironically, while M3GAN does bear more than a passing resemblance to a Chucky, it’s not the O.G. 1988 one played by Brad Dourif.
Based on the trailers alone, M3GAN has quite a few things in common with the 2019 version of Child’s Play. In that version, Chucky wasn’t a doll possessed by a serial killer through voodoo magic. Instead, Chucky (voiced there by Mark Hamill) was a malfunctioning A.I. who just wanted to be his owner’s friend—even if it meant having to kill a few people to do it.
The next day, in response to Chucky’s call-out post, M3GAN replied to that tweet which said, “u Know u that doll when u cause all this conversation,” captioned with a GIF of her taking off her sunglasses from the trailer.
Besides that, in response to Chucky’s posting, “word to the wise: don’t fk with the chuck,” M3GAN responded back with a ‘lol chucky plss.”
Horror Fans Are Enjoying The Dueling Dolls
A few days ago, when blink-182 was trending on Twitter, Chucky posted, “hello there the killer doll from your nightmares @blink182 #chucky,” with an accompanying Chucky emoji. M3GAN responded, “don’t waste ur time on me,” with a short GIF of her dance moves from the trailer. Referencing how both tweets are taken from lyrics to the band’s song “I Miss You.”
That’s not all. On Twitter, Chucky also posted a collage of a scene from the first episode of Chucky Season 2, which was entitled “Halloween II.” It’s the scene where Lexy (Alyvia Alyn Lind) is warning her younger sister Caroline (Carina Battrick) that “dolls are —-ed u” and never to trust any of them. M3GAN responded, “u can trust me,” with a heart-on-fire emoji. M3GAN included a GIF of her dancing with her new owner Cady (Violet McGraw) to prove it.
Chucky also retweeted a post from FACETUNE, which was of a collage of Chucky with half his face melted from season 1 of his show and M3GAN looking utterly pristine on her movie poster. Over the picture of her, Chucky typed “before,” while over the picture of him, he typed “after.” M3GAN has yet to respond to that one.
In response to all this, TikTok user TheDisturbing Dissector asked where Annabelle was in all of this. Well, going back to Child’s Play (2019), there was a series of posters of A.I. Chucky murdering both the cast of Toy Story and Annabelle, in reference to how both Toy Story 4 and Annabelle Comes Home were released at around the same time. Perhaps Annabelle knows to take the words “don’t fk with the chuck” seriously?
