Alex was pissed that Jay shared the tapes that he himself gave him. Imagine how pissed he'll be when he finds out Jay uploaded footage from a tape he was trying to burn.

Can the grumbling about production values and overall series direction, etc., please remain in the specified threads for such things, and not in the discussion thread for specific episodes?

Yes, it means fewer people will read your screed about how long you think it should have taken to update, but some folks read the entry threads specifically to discuss the entries.

I'm not even going to argue how ridiculous the idea that Amy sent the tape and Alex intercepted it is. Just because something is possible doesn't mean it's even close to fitting in with the story, or easy to explain to viewers. It's entirely possible that totheark got stuck in the tunnel and couldn't find his way out, and is broadcasting videos from down there and will never get out, but that would be ridiculous.

As far as that repeated dialogue (what do you want!?) showing parallelism, all I have to say is "so what" to that concept. We've known Jay has been doing his own investigation just like Alex was since entry #1.

This entry was a simple "hey lets go back to the park for a cool callback since we're in the area anyway" and that's why it failed. It is another throwaway entry that is trying to impose nostalgia in replacement of good storytelling.

Troy was not a necessity for this entry. The whole thing was 3 takes, and there was nothing for him to really direct. If he was in the hospital, Joseph and Tim could have picked up the slack. Outside of the operator (assuming someone was playing him) it requires just Joseph. How hard is it to go to a friend and say "hey can you stand here and put your hands up when he comes near you"

The claim that this entry was similar to other entries so I should like it or not be a fan is bullshit. They should strive to show us new things instead of the same tired shit over and over again. Season 2 did a great job of diversifying things in the sense that no two entries had the same feel. I just can't comprehend how they can film the masterpiece that was season 2, and have season 3 just be subpar entry after subpar entry. Entry 65 got it right.

You are most certianly a fanboy, or at the very least the strongest pravado hater on the site. You are the only person who feels the need to shove your opinion down my throat personally in every entry thread.

Oh really? Please tell me what new information we've gained from this entry, or what new behaviors Alex is showing us.

Except we've seen the operator attempt to drown tim, and teleport him out of the water onto dry land. He could have just left him in the water. He can certainly kill people if he wanted to.

One question I have is this:
- Slendy was involved in Alex's birthday back in 1991...so it might not even be his first involvement with TO
- Another factor to this is that TTA probably uploaded that video. It was probably a nice edit to showcase the "Alex is gone, he's under TO now".
- So relating to this entry, either
A: Alex has infact encounter TO before this whole series, but any memory of that has been removed
B: TO has never actually done anything to Alex until the beginning of the series, but maybe he was watching from such an early age. Perhaps when Alex became closer to Tim (who was revealed to be deeply involved with TO) TO decided to become a part of Alex's life
