That we don't know. Evidence tends to point more towards the individual people involved in the project being the targets of the Operator as opposed to the movie itself. It seemed to at least be stalking Alex and Tim since they were kids, as shown in Enttry 37 and Entry 60.5 respectively.

We are hoping that they explain these things by the end of the series a little more concretely. But geaux is right, enttry 37 and 60.5 point at alex and tim having troubles even as children.

"Marble Hornets was a bad student film. EverymanHYBRID was terrible health advice. Maybe Slenderman just hates people who make bad internet videos?"

This is my favorite theory, by far.

I always saw it as he wasn't affilliated with marble hornets at all, and that he had been stalking alex for a while. The only reason alex was able to find out about it was because he had a camera in his hand and picked the operator up on film. Before that every encounter must have ended with a mind wipe so he never even knew he existed.

Most people don't like to talk about horrifying occurrences in their past because it forces them to remember it. Being followed around by a freakishly tall faceless guy in a business suit isn't much different. What if every time jay thinks of the operator, he remembers being in the basement of doom or the tunnels under the hospital. Those are the sort of things most people try to forget about.

I think this topic should be regarding Totheark instead. Jay is the only one who really knows about him/her/them but TTA seems to have all of the answers. They make it seem that way, at least. Learning TTA's identity should be priority - I think so anyway. But Jay or anyone else has almost NEVER mentioned TTA in the entries. I think at best there has been a reference to a TTA video in the opening or closing cards.
