 		First Neil, and now LittleKuriboh? Slender Man is really spreading fast. As a Yugioh Abridged fan, this was a dream come true. Razz

 		I was expecting Martin to do something like this since he started watching Marble Hornets. Still find it pretty boring, though.

 		It is an honor to be described as boring by folks who spend their time doing frame-by-frame analysis of videos of a guy walking around a hotel! <3

But in all seriousness, I had a lot of fun making the video, and if it didn't click with you guys, I'm sorry about that. However, I do think there's fun to be had in the idea that Slender Man is only appearing in all these video blogs/amateur films because he's trying to make a name for himself, or influencing the movie to the point that he becomes the main subject altogether.

It's either that or he's trying to rid the internet of video bloggers one person at a time.

 		I squealed at the Jack Slenderman part. it's like Dray and Tim's facebook conversation about teal and orange in action!

Also it's fantastic that 2 of my fandoms have somehow come together. AWESOME.

Excellent work LK.

 		Personally, I liked it, though I'd have probably enjoyed it less if I hadn't known Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series.

The Jack Slenderman bit was awesome.

I found it a really odd coincidence that the very next day after I watched the MarbleHornets videos, my first introduction to Slenderman, I should see one of my favourite youtubers upload a parody. Then you see you on here... Cool

Gotta say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Your first idea about slendy trying to get a name for himself made me laugh probably harder than I should have. Love these little pet-projects of yours! Keep it up!

edited for typo

Edit2: The "Gimmie $20" joke was also priceless.

He throws his head up in frustration.
Marik:"Bakur ra!" looks perturbed.
Marik puts the back of his hands on his waist and leans forward in an effeminate manner.
Bakura:"What?"
Marik: "You made me break character."
Bakura:"Uhh..."


1:01-1:09
If you look closely, you can see The Slenderman with his tentacles raised in the back left. He does something that looks like he waving.

Marik: "Now I have to go and start the scene all over again."

Marik puts his left hand on is waist, turns his head away from Bakura, and closes his eyes as he says this.

Bakura: "You didn't even start the scene yet. You just said: 'Action.' Twice." Sounds annoyed.

Marik puts his hands on his waist again, looks like he is popping his hip towards Bakura.
Marik looks sideways towards Bakura.

Marik: "Action!" Throws his head up as saying this.

1:10-1:27
Marik: "Are you rolling?"
Bakura: "Yes."
Marik: "Cut!" Throwing head back again.
Marik: "Bakura!"
Bakura: "What?!"
Marik: "The cameraman must remain silent at all times."

The slenderman can be seen if you look at the right side. He is waving.

Bakura: "But you asked me a question!" puts camera down.
Marik: "I asked you a question in CHARACTER, and therefore, you must respond in character."
Bakura: "What is bloody hell is my character?" hint of confusion in his voice.

1:28
Footage cuts to another camera that is zoomed into Mariks face.

1:28-1:32

1:35
Cuts to a close up of Marik again.
Looking up and to his right again.
Marik: "John for short." said quickly

1:35-1:47
Cuts back to the view of both of them.
Bakura: "Look, I'm filming all of this. You do realize that we have a limited amount of tape."
Marik:"Right, of course." Looking at Bakura sideways.
Marik: "Action!" Throws his head back.
Marik: "Are you rolling Johnathan?" Looking sideways again.
Bakura: "Ummm... gay elephant noise."

1:48-2:14
Marik: "Perfect. Okay, now I--"
The Slenderman enters from the left.
The Slenderman: "Hey guys."
The Slenderman: "Hey guys."
Marik: "What the?!? Who the frig is that?!?" turning around and taking a step back away from The Slenderman.
Bakura: "Just ignore him."
The Slenderman: "Hey guys, can I be in your movie too?"
Bakura: "Oh piss off!"
The Slenderman: "Ahh, come on guys. I just want to be in your movie."
Marik: "What, i-is that a homeless guy."
Bakura: "No, Marik."
Marik: "Hey, get a freakin' job." Points at The Slenderman with his right hand.
Bakura: "Let's just move on to the next scene. Shall we?"
Marik: "Okay. Let me go get my bathing suit." Turns back to Bakura.
Bakura: "Wwhy do you need a bathing suit?" Sounding a little confused.
Marik: "Did you even read the script." Spits a little on the last word.

Points at Bakura with his left hand. His right hand is behind his back and he is pushing his chest out in an effeminate manner.

2:15-2:43
Bakura: "I... may have skimmed... just a tad."

The Slenderman takes a few steps towards Bakura and Marik

Marik: "I am beginning to doubt your commitment to my project." pointing at Bakura.
The Slenderman: "Hey guys. Hey guys." waving with the right tentacle the second time.
Marik: "What!? What is it, strange tall man without a face!?" Still pointing at Bakura but facing The Slenderman.
The Slenderman: "I would like to be in the movie. Could I be in the movie?" Puts down his tentacle.

Marik takes a step back and turns to face The Slenderman.
The Slenderman takes a few more steps towards Marik and Bakura

Marik: "Do you even know what we're filming?"
The Slenderman: "A movie."
Marik: "Not just ANY movie, this is MY Magnum Opus."

Marik brings his right hand to his chest, puts his left hand up into the air, and gives a big smile while saying the above line.
Bakura ducks back to avoid Marik's hand.

Marik: "This is going to make Citizen Kane look like" Pointing to the slender man.

2:43-2:45
Cuts to close up of Marik's face.
Marik: "Citizen LAME." Eyes widen and spits a little while saying this.

2:45
Cuts back to camera looking at all 3.

2:45-3:29
The Slenderman: "I never saw that one."
Marik: "Yeah, me either. Apparently, it's a big deal."
Bakura: "Marik could we please get back to filming!"
Marik: "Yes, of course." Looking back to Bakura
Marik: "Action!" throwing head back once again.
Bakura: "Uh... Marik, that man is in the shot."
Marik: "Oh, it's fine. We'll just edit him out in post."
Bakura: "Do you even know what those words mean?!?" Looking aggravated.

Marik puts his left hand on his waist, raises his right hand up closes his eyes.
The Slenderman ducks to avoid being hit by Marik's Millennium Rod.

Marik: "I am the director! I do not have to understand what I'm saying, I merely have to say it. Action!"
The Slenderman: "What is my motivation?"
Bakura: "To get out of the bloody shot." Sounding annoyed."
Marik: "Ah, maybe we could put him in the movie, Bakura. Afterall, the camera seems to love him."
The Slenderman: "Hey Bakura. How's it going?" Leaning back and waving to Bakura.
Marik: "Wait, wait, you two know each other?" Looking at Bakura.
Bakura: "Unfortunately." Sighing and shrugging his shoulders.
The Slenderman: "We were college roommates."
Bakura: "Yes. We used to get crunk and pick up chicks, as the saying goes.

3:29-3:34
Cuts to Bakura, The Slenderman, and two women.
The Slenderman, Bakura, and the redhead are dancing to "Give me $20."
The Purple haired woman is lying on a couch.
The redhead his drinking a Martini. Hard to tell with the distortion.

3:34-3:38
Cuts back to a close up of Marik.
Marik: "Wow, I bet you guys have some crazy stories."

3:38
Cuts to a camera that has a close up of The Slenderman

3:38-3:40
The Slenderman: "Ho-oh, do we ever."

3:40
Cuts back to all 3

3:42-4:18
Marik: "So, what happened?"
The Slenderman: "Bakura tells it better than I do."
Marik: "Bakura?"
Bakura: "I'm afraid I don't really remember most of it. Uhh, any of it actually." Shrugging and closing his eyes.
Bakura: "Strange."
Marik: "So what's with the suit anyway? Did you just go to a funeral or something?" pointing to The Slenderman.
The Slenderman: "My other clothes are in the wash."
Bakura: "Marik, the movie." Firm tone.
Marik: "Ah yes. Action!" Throws head back.
The Slenderman: "So am I in the movie now?"
Marik: "I don't know. Uh, Bakura is he in the movie?"
Bakura: "Well, I suppose we really don't have much choice! Afterall, he doesn't seem to want to get out of the shot." Annoyed.
Marik: "Well then, I guess your in the movie." Brings his hands together in a giddy schoolgirl kind of way.
Marik: "Hey, wait a minute, there is only supposed to be one character in my movie."
The Slenderman: "What is his name?" Raising his left tentacle.

4:19
Cuts to a closeup of Marik's face
Marik: "Marik Ishtar."

4:20-4:30
Cuts to all 3.
The Slenderman: "I think I would like to play him."
Marik: "But I am Marik Ishtar!" Looks worried."
The Slenderman: "I think I would do a good job."
Marik: "Bull crap! You couldn't possibly play me better than I can." Raises his right staff.

4:30-4:34
Cuts to closeup of Bakura
Bakura: "Oh, why don't we put it to the test? Both of you say 'Binky Boy.' " said while smiling.

4:34

The Slenderman is blushing.
Marik looks sad.
Marik: "No! That's not right! This is my movie."

4:42-4:44
Cuts to closeup of Bakura.
Bakura: "Oh, he auditioned fair and square, Marik." Said with a smile.

4:44-4:51
Cuts back to all 3.

Marik: "Grrr, fine! But if he is going to play me, he's going to need a change of wardrobe."

4:51-5:35
Same camera, but scene wipes left.
Marik and The Slenderman have switched clothes.
The Slenderman looks effeminate in the pink tanktop and hip-hugger pants.

Marik: "There. Now you look pretty." With a upturned hand presenting The Slenderman.
Marik: "Man Bakura, he's even paler than you. And that's saying something."
Bakura: "Yes, the gleam from his midriff is positively blinding."
The Slenderman: "What is my motivation?"
Marik: "Your very sexy. Also, you hate the Pharaoh."
The Slenderman: "What is a Pharaoh?"
Marik: "It's not important. Just act."
The Slenderman: "I do not think I like this script. I have issues with the dialogue." Holding script up to look at it.
Marik: "What!?! Frig you! I wrote that thing myself! It's perfect!" Pointing aggressively at The Slenderman.
The Slenderman: "It needs more explosions. And dead children."
Marik: "What?!" Is taken aback.
The Slenderman: "I mean Kurt Russell."
Marik: "Oh you think you could come up with something better, huh? You think your a friggin' screen writer?" Leaning towards The Slenderman aggressively.
The Slenderman: "Yes."
Marik: "Okay Mr. Lorance effing Olivia, YOU write the freaking movie."

5:35-6:05
Cuts to a scene from The Slenderman's movie.
A Kurt Russell is talking on the phone.
3 kids are huddled in the background, shaking.
Music playing in background.

Kurt: "And you can tell the President that if we do not receive the money on schedule, he can say goodbye to these precious orphans.
The Slenderman: "Not so fast." The Slenderman breaks through a window.
Kurt: "It's you, Jack Slenderman! The cop who does not play by the ruleS."
The Slenderman: "It's lights out for you terrorist."

The Slenderman punches Lorance.

Red Kid: "Thanks for rescuing us Mr. Slenderman. Oh God NO!"

Kid screams as slenderman picks him up and eats him.

The Slenderman: "It's all in a days work... for Jack Slenderman." Puts on sun glasses.

Yugi: "I just can't believe they actually got Kurt Russel."

6:28-6:35
Cuts to another camera in the movie theater.
The Slenderman and Mokuba are there.
The Slenderman's arm is around Mokuba.

The Slenderman: "Excuse me, some of us are trying to hear the movie."

The Slenderman lifts Mokuba then then eats him.
Mokuba: "WoaaAaa"

"'SOME DARK CORNER OF OF YOUR ROOM,
WAITING TO EAT YOUR FACE'" in text fades in.

Speculation & Analysis:

Due to the distortions early in the footage it would appear the The Slenderman was present nearby quite early in the filming.

I suppose all of their filming budget went to buying a bunch of cameras they did not need. Including at least 1 gold camera.

There are at least 6 cameras being used in this footage.

Memory loss is probably due to The Slenderman's victims getting crunk.

I think Marik might be gay.

Joey's popcorn looks yummy. Else, Joey's pop looks curdled.

The Slenderman apparently wants to go into show business.

At 4:39 you can clearly see him blushing.



FURTHERMORE I HAVE SPOTTED SARAH.

At 5:57 you can see a small girl in yellow.

That is clearly sarah in the past.
