Was anyone else struck by how Tim talked about Alex when he met Jay? Whe he talked about Alex trying to make him "get out of his hair", he said it like he was still upset about it a little. Maybe it's nothing, but it struck me as weird that he'd have an emotional response to things that happened 5 years ago, which you'd expect he'd be over. Especially because he barely remembered anything about the shoot in #15.

The tape cuts right after he says it, so it's not clear whether he says anything else about Alex... why would Jay cut a few seconds of dialogue, when he's perfectly happy to leave in shots of him walking around car parks or waiting on porches?

Tim totally stubbed his toe on the Operator, leading to a pissed-off Slendy charging through the door to take his revenge on Tim and those associated with him (he's a vindictive fellow). The entire series has been because Tim was a klutz.

Man, I just re-watched entry #9 and Alex and Tim do not seem like friends..at all. I'm wondering how big a gap there was between when these entries happened and when exactly Alex was replaced with evil Alex. He seems like a normal person in #54 but he's a huge flaming buttwind in #9.

I've read through the thread and didn't see any mention of this.

There was nothing affecting the function of the keyboard that Alex was rocking out on, despite the camera going on the fritz from The Operator's presence. Does this mean The Operator consciously chooses which devices are messed with, or that devices not actively recording are rendered immune to The Operator's presence?

If it has to do with the fact that something is recording The Operator, what are the implications for The Operator having conscious control over his detrimental health effects vs slendysickness being merely a side effect of witnessing or being in the presence of the Operator given that a person is just a living recording device?

I always got the impression that they went pretty far into the production before he went batshit insane.

I hadn't thought about that before... I think you may really be on to something there.

Maybe Alex was just such a bad director that he wanted to make the trailer out of the only stuff they'd shot. So like, they've only shot 2 minutes worth of the movie and Alex wants to make that into a trailer.
