The bar at the very bottom of the screen went away while I was trying to make an intro, its the one with all the frames and options of view, marker, frame, playback, start, end, and the play button. Please help me, how do I get it back!?

Click on a transparent '+' button in the down right part of a screen.
Maybe you accidentaly collapsed menus. Hover your cursor over the bottom bar, then press RMB and uncheck the Collapse Menus box.
If you want to have many different windows (editors) opened at once you can add them by:
- clicking on the corner of the window and dragging it in any diection:
- using a Split Area option (press the RMB while hovering cursor over the border of the window)
With multiple windows opened you can change the editor type for each of them by clicking on area type button as I've shown above. In your case change the editor type for one of them to Timeline.

Maybe you accidentally collapsed the area that we call the 'Header' and you'll see a small + symbol attached to the bottom of the view area.
The +
is shown in the bottom right corner of an Area, so if you can't find it at first in the Main Region, it may just be that you have the Properties Region enabled (hotkey: N) which means it'll be in that lower right corner, it just might be harder to spot because of any property Panels:

https://docs.blender.org/manual/de/dev/interface/window_system/regions.html states
The Header can be hidden with ALT+F9
but I find (2.78 Windows) this key combination toggles it (i.e. it also shows it when it's hidden).
