Dude, it's not an english essay here. There's not 'many ways to interpret' leaving a series hanging with no message easily accessible to those who follow it.


Your post is literally right after just such a message. Also, an English essay only has one possible interpretation, because it is a logical explanation of a thesis statement.

I think that might've been my favorite entry of the big 3 so far.
That was fucking splendid, son.

That is more than I ever expected. For them, or any of the series. That entry was unbelievable. I think it's safe to say that they have mastered their craft.

I'm impressed and very, very happy. It was worth the wait, well worth it.

CORRECTION:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Jessa wasn't written out. She was still with Jeff during her "outro" in the series. They broke up quite a while after her character exited the series.


Now: new video...

Damn, there's so much that needs to be discussed.


This video right here surpasses everything. It was excellent. I can see why it took this long to make. It was worth the wait x10 over.

This!!

It's the Apocalpyse Now!/2001/Enter the Void of Slendervlog-videos!!

I remember writing this article on the shows on my blog ages ago, saying this:

Quote:
So now that we have reached the third stage, where will the fourth stage take us? Going with a famous horror film cliché, the fourth chapter of our story might well take us into space – it might introduce the cosmic, socio-political and religious concepts that are the roots for the mythos. It could lead to further self-analyzation where previously the creators only exorcized their fears and defy the rules of space and time which the Slenderman himself doesn't seem to know. If the first three stages have gone from introduction and curious genre exploration to individual, psychological adaptation, this next stage may introduce a messianic counterpart to the evil the protagonists face. And indeed – during the last few months of the third stage, the various characters and stories have, crossed over, some of them meeting each other on the streets, others openly collaborating on defeating their pursuer. The story of the Slenderman is, after all a combination of collective social trauma and religious quest. And we all know where that leads to.


This came as fucking close as anything could right now!!!

HO-LY SHIT!

I don't know how they accomplished all that but I gotta say:

*Achievement Unlocked* Masters of the Slender-Verse!! Rock On

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I d/l and read the pdf,its from Corenthal's wife bidding him good-bye and telling him in a hand-written note that she would put into action "The Corenthal Something or other (haven't been to bed yet,LOL) but anyway--basically the "exit plan" and she'd hold the fort or whatever

Thanks man, appreciated. Smile

So yeah, let's get this rolling:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Corenthal has had a sort of "plan". He seems to know how to deal with those creatures, and seems to be sure that they (he and Vin? The Kids?) are not "becoming" the monsters, if I interpret his words right.
He almost reminds me of the good detective (guess which one) in how he manages to outlive the monsters.
He also was able to "create" a parallel universe. But how?

It seems as if he has more insight into this universe - the entire Slenderverse, actually - than anybody else. I do not suppose that this happened through treatment of the kids, but that there is something else which made him realize what fabric this plane is made from.

I wonder what he is shooting Slenderman with, as in what material the bullets are made from.


Again, I am curious what you guys make of the short B/W bit...

Reposting some of my thoughts from elsewhere:

* This has got to be the most elaborate, lengthy, and elegant use of the "uncontrolled teleportation" trope that I have ever seen in any Slender Man vlog series. Seriously amazing, and now I see why it's been three months between updates.
* Obvious temporal shenanigans to go with the spatial ones, since at one point Vinnie manages to film himself from across the room. Not sure if that was supposed to be a future Vin or a past one; given that this particular scene was in Evan's basement, it might have been a replay of a scene from "Still Alive." The idea of timeskipping also neatly ties into why Vincent hasn't updated in all these months: maybe for him it hasn't been nearly that long.
* Corenthal directly refers to "our" Vinnie as his son, confirming that in some way the current cast are the same people as the MT4.
* Corenthal also refers to Vinnie's "sister" and "brother." Interesting that "brother" is singular. The sister is obviously Steph, but is the brother Jeff (taken out of the game somehow) or Evan (stuck in this other place while HABIT makes use of his body)?
* It just occurred to me that this is probably the first time Vinnie has ever seen the "drowning pool" footage, since up til now it's only appeared in the Hidden Videos.

Oh my shitting christ.

EMH has never really been my favourite sledny series, but I'm pretty sure that they have just produced the best single episode of any of them At the very least, this goes straight into my top 3, alongside Happy Birthday and Entry 19.

Am gonna have to re-watch for any sort of context, but

wow
