I'm wondering if they're going to try and catch Hoody in Rosswood and have an interrogation.

I just fucking loved that.


That was good, that was real good. I also liked the part where he mentioned that there's someone watching them, who's probably watching them right now.

OOG,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The dump trucks and streetlights are distinct enough that it would be clear in a photo or video. I wonder if that's why they picked this location.


In game, it was Tim who chose the location, and Jay even remarks that it seemed like a terrible idea to meet there - and yet Tim seems totally together and on the ball the whole conversation. He's clearly thought this through, so you're forced to wonder: *is* there a good reason to have met there?

He says they're meeting there because of his work schedule, but should we believe this? He sure seems a lot less paranoid than Jay.

Yes, I think Tim's motivations are going to be the subject of much debate for the next little bit. On the one hand, he says he's ready to help Jay and it seems like he's finally admitted that there is a problem that can't be ignored. He's taking steps to survive. I like that. On the other hand, he's not taking it as seriously as I would have thought he would: he's taking his time with teaming up; he's directing too much of his anger at his only ally; he's taking risks by meeting in the open and wanting to go to Rosswood. It's like he's willing to admit that he's got an enemy, but he's not registering the gravity of the danger.

Maybe Tim's aggressiveness and Jay's paranoia will complement each other, if the guys can get past their personal issues.

And that's the second consecutive entry I've missed the immediate release of because I was doing nerdy things.

I don't know why everyone is having a big problem with this entry. We got an explanation, which is in-and-of-itself a great thing. The dynamic between Jay and Tim is set up- neither of them are really comfortable, but they've both run out of options. Even if they are childish at times, it's probably the most mature responses they could do considering the situation. Also, raise your hand if you're excited for the next TTA video. Just look at where they met- there's so much potential for TTA/Hoody to be lurking about. S/he could have been in one of the trucks, staring at them, and they'd never know. I'm excited to see what TTA will say to it all.

I don't know. This entry was tense, advanced the plot with blatant points that had been around here for ages, but nonexistent IG, and gave us so much to be worried about. Will they actually find anything? Will TO thwart their efforts? And, if Jessica is still out there (fat chance), what does she know?

what a fucking joke this was. this should have been the intro to a greater entry.

"oh hey tim, you're one of my best friends irl, i see you all the time but lets take 3 weeks to record a one-take conversation" get the fuck outta here. the downtime is clearly them writing dialogue that should have been written during the break between seasons.

i can officially say that i don't care about the waits between entries anymore. i might just stop watching until it's all done, because the only reason i'm dissapointed after every entry is knowing we got jack shit filler and another 3 weeks to go before we get more jack shit filler.

they set up all these opportunities in the entries to do amazing things and just ignore them because they're short on time and leave them as dialogue heavy entries. that's no excuse to me.

call me an entitled brat or a troll, whatever, i don't care. the burden is on the creators to keep me watching, it's not on me to force my interest in things.

i'm a diehard marble hornets fan but i can only take so much abuse, and this may have been the final "Fuck you" straw for me. i'm tired of this lackluster shit. i've seen what they could do (season 2). if you want to give me dialogue heavy entries, make them longer. i'm not going to be satisfied with something you pretty much gave away through tweets. all this is is a broadened explanation of the "tim is going to help me now" tweet

They probably didn't know Tim's car got WRECKED to hell on top of RL crawling up into their behinds and grabbing hold like a rabid gerbil.

Here's something else to chew on. Beginning around 3:31:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Tim: ...but we've got a bigger problem to deal with right now. There's somebody out there that is an immediate threat to both of us.
Jay: Someone who's probably watching us right now, now that you mention it. [emphasis mine]


Why the singular there? We know that there are two threats, Hoody and the Operator. They could have been talking about either one, here. I'm interpreting it as a reference to Hoody, for the moment, but isn't it troubling that they seem to be unwilling to mention the larger, more supernatural threat?

I agree with most of Kimren's above post - this entry was great.

I'm glad to finally see these two working together, and I'm also excited that it's been sort-of-confirmed by Tim's dialogue that we'll have another Entry in about a week.

I don't really trust Tim yet. It was made clear on his medical records that he wasn't sincere. Until they're both running from The Operator and Jay trips and Tim turns around to help him back up, I'm not going to be completely trustworthy.

However, it's good that Jay seemingly has an ally now. We finally have somebody to convince Jay to take the offensive and plunge neck-deep into The Operator's evil lair to get some frikkin' answers.

Oh, and I also can't wait for the possible standoff with Hoody/TTA.

I'll admit, I was kind of pissed at first because of how little this entry brought us forward. It kind of sucks we waited almost a month for that.

It's a good entry though. I like that they are teaming up now, and how Jay mentioned Jessica. I'm really interested to see the totheark response and where he or she was hiding. Hopefully that will come sooner rather than later.

It's not good enough. I know they have real life shit going on but this whole season feels half assed. Hell, tribetwelve has a more interesting story and entries in the past few than MH has had all season. I can understand wanting to take your time and not rush shit out, but what we're getting still feels rushed.

The operator hasn't been around in months, and almost a year before that last attack on jay. he doesn't pose a threat. i don't care what they're going to pull, he left jay alone for that long, he doesn't care about jay.

if the operator doesn't pose a threat, totheark shouldn't give a shit about the operator either. this whole story is getting so stupid because it's taking so long for them to say one simple thing. if you have a big moment you want to get to, then get to it already and build upon it. don't fill the gaps in between here and then with small meaningless dialogue entries.

I'm afraid that may be backwards.
