Okay, dude, seriously? Calm down. Take a chill pill. If you don't have any chill pills, take one of those chill strips, place them on your tongue, let it disintegrate, and relax.

It IS the beginning of a new season. It IS the first entry of more to come. It DID raise a few questions, the most important being WHAT HAPPENED? There are seven months worth of a story that we don't know, and the fact that he doesn't remember just makes it even more curious.

Am I skeptical? Sure. I said just that earlier. Do I believe they have an overall plan? Absolutely. This "filler" video is setting up season 2 and letting us know what we need to keep in mind going into it. Nobody is making you watch it. Chill the fuck out.

I don't like getting annoyed at people over the internet, but you're freaking out over nothing. Sit back, make some popcorn, and wait for the next one.

just to throw this out there, its not television, so why should we associate it as such? season 2, part 2, act 2, it doesnt really matter what you call it. it's ongoing. they labeled it as entry 27, and thats what it is. it sets the grounds for where they're going to from sleeping, but these guys have mastered the art of suspense and payoff. entry 1, at least personally, wasnt the most amazing thing ever. it made me go "wait, what?" and held my interest. it seems that is the purpose of entry 27. to peak our interest, and hold it until the next entry. i know im excited as all hell for more because it has always been worth it and i know they'll come through in the end.

OH BOY I AM FINALLY CAUGHT UP

So many threads so many posts in less than one day MH fans really talk too much.

First:

The internet is not like television. The internet doesn't necessarily have to follow the established methods and tropes of television for telling a story, since the internet is a different medium. Television seasons are planned and structured the way they are because of culturally and historically changing broadcast practices, and that's how we get the typical broadcast seasons we see today. But the internet is (currently) more of a free medium (especially for indie producers like the crew of Marble Hornets) because it doesn't have the cultural, economical, and business restrictions that television has, so the internet doesn't have to follow the same methods of storytelling that television has.

TL;DR: The internet is a different medium than television and that difference will affect and influence how the story is told.


Me, I'm not looking at this as a new season (though for convention's sake season two works I guess), but simply as a continuation of the same story. That's simply happening seven months later. I guess calling it Part Two works for me, but I don't know, I'M JUST GLAD TO HAVE MORE STORY.

Also when Jay got up and walked around and we saw the camera in his chest I thought the camera had become part of him and I am very glad that is not the case (though it would have been cool).

I'll admit it, pages back I said I found it boring. It was boring in a it didn't make me intrigued as much as the first introduction. Still good and I know better stuff is to come.

With all that aside, I personally hope to see Jay uploading footage that he doesn't know he filmed, footage given to him, or whatever.

Also I'd like to see more Totheark interactions and the operator of course.

Hey guys, first time postin on anything MH related, don't massacre me

So I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but a friend of mine who just watched the new entry says that the little time-counter-thingie on the video player goes from 6:12 to 6:14 for her, totally skipping 6:13.
And she, being the person she is, went crazy with it. (I think it's really reaching, but I can't break her spirit, and the coincidence is a little creepy anyway)
So, her train of thought was that 6:13 would add up to 371 seconds, which translated to a date, 3/7/01.
She looked it up on google (not sure what terms she used exactly)and got this transcript thing about a child that went missing a few years ago and was never found. I gotta admit the circumstances are total Slendermaterial, but otherwise.

To be honest, I don't think it's anything but a creepy coincidence, but in the off chance it really is something worthwhile, I figured I should post it.

I figured that Masky wasn't Jay in those photos due to Masky's eyes being visible and too tiny to be Jay's. He has some noticeable eyes.

I could be wrong obviously but looking at the image it doesn't look like Jays eyes unless they edited it to fool us cause were too close to the truth. Haha.

About Alex and his girlfriend. He told her to like go and run. I wonder what happened to her? Maybe she was taken, maybe she's now slowly starting to succumb to slenderman and we will see more of her.

That'd be neat.
