slendy in tunnel makes no sense

no sense whatsoever

Jay getting chased through a tunnel by the operator is cool, but incredibly predictable.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I still think crap like this doesn't belong in the entry discussion thread without OOG spoilers. While you may enjoy ripping apart the filming and writing ability of troseph, some don't. I would happily discuss this sort of thing tomorrow, but it kills the "just watched a creepy entry" buzz.


So, slendy body size modification is canon now? His entire body wasn't visible so I couldn't tell.

Jay's crawl under the pipe was EPIC. I was OH CRAP SLENDY IS GONNA CATCH HIM! NOPE! crab mode activate!



I would like to attribute jays escape to a mix of teleportation, and his crawling skills.

Everyone has pretty much mentioned all the important stuff so I'll leave it at that annnnnnd goodnight.[/img]

1. I just realized that Alex, Tim, and Jay form the classic cinematic visual trio: the tall lanky one, the burly one, the small slight one. And when Jay had to scramble under those pipes, I can only imagine how glad he was that he was the small slight one.

2. Jay's reactions are improving. Once when he ran into the Op face to face, he abandoned his camera; once he abandoned common sense and attacked the Op. Once he managed to hold onto both his camera and Alex's house key. This time he managed to get clean away with the camera, the Slendoll, and Little Timmy's paperwork. Very good, Jay.

3. The writing on the folder seems to match that on the wall, "HE IS A LIAR" and "FOLLOW ME". Is it Alex's hand -- that is, does it match the scrawls found in his house? I noticed that the Op symbol and "LIAR" on the folder were done in broad marker pen, where Alex always wrote/drew in charcoal or soft pencil.

4. I am claustrophobic and kept thinking all through this entry GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.

Am I the only one who thinks that Slender Man is a good guy, and somebody just makes him do bad things?

As much I would have a laugh, I can't imagine The Operator giving some sort of thanks to Jay at the end of the series when he is freed, you must remember that he is a giant faceless abomination, so I can't imagine that it would even be able to portray emotion haha

I sort of like the idea that perhaps the Operator is a good guy, however he's a being from some other dimension or something, so whenever he manifests in our world, it distorts reality, which messes stuff up (slender sickness, his effect on electronics, etc.). He's trying to help (somehow. Why? I don't know.) but he's just making it worse.

I don't really believe that's the case, but I like the idea of it.

I also kind-of like the idea that the Operator is Alex's (or Tim's, or both, maybe) imaginary friend made real and gone horribly awry. Again not a theory that I subscribe to, but I think it's a fun idea.

Okay, I felt silly at first for thinking this, but no one has brought it up. When I saw Tim's pediatric forms along side the slenderdoll I immediately thought that the doll had belonged to Tim when he was a child, perhaps he made it... I don't know. Kinda corny, but that's what occurred to me when watching, and I'm kinda surprised that it hasn't to anyone else.

Nevermind

It looks like the form says "insomnia, headaches, possible disorder."
I know some of you have mentioned insomnia and headaches but I don't remember any of you mentioning the last thing sooo... Smile

Is anyone else even slightly intrigued by the fact that on the medical report it also mentions hives? Not something that's occurred anywhere or anything but for some reason it's been eating at me. Any ideas as to why they would even include that?

Also I think it's funny that Hoodsy (or whoever put the papers there) took the initiative to black out certain things for Jay so that it can be uploaded to youtube in an easier fashion

I know there's been some debate about why the Operator turned up now, in real time, after such a long absence - the Operator symbol was on the front of the medical papers. Could it be that Hoody, or whoever left the papers drew it there to summon TO for whatever reason?

A;so, did anyone else noticed the unfinished Operator symbols on the walls of the hospital. Two or three curved crosses, but without the circle around it?

I don't know why people are debating or having a hard time following Jay's path down the tunnel. There are a few cuts at first, so it's impossible to say for sure how far he's gone or what turns he's taken. But at some point he reaches an area where he can either continue forward by climbing over some pipes or turn left, Jay turns left, and after about 15 feet he finds the doll and documents. He turns around and goes back to the intersection, where upon he climbs over the pipes (the direction he didn't go before) and walks about 6 feet before he turns around, see's TO and proceeds to book it toward the end of the tunnel (down the tunnel he has not yet explored) which appears to turn to the left (indicated by the pipes on the ceiling) when he reaches the bend, he turns around once more to see TO right on his ass, where upon there is much distortion and running (who knows how the fuck he got out of there because he was running in the wrong direction)....But there is absolutely no reason to perceive skips in the video along side visual distortion as teleportation. The camera is the only thing we are allowed to see through, and the camera is disrupted and distorted by the Operator.

I get the impression that the hospital blacked out the papers, 'back in the day. Maybe these were copies of documents that were intended for a certain party, whom weren't permitted to view certain information?

Anyway, I just rewatched the entry and noticed something - when the Operator first appears, is he CLIMBING over the pipes, or is that just me?

Also, what if the "He lies" thing was meant for Tim? What if Hoody was trying to tell Tim that Jay was lying to him back in Entry #58, because he wanted Tim on his side again? Perhaps he expected Tim to find the medical records because there's something in there that would remind him of everything? Just a thought.

Great entry. Tense as all hell, and count me amongst those who find the physical improbability of the Operator in the tunnel particularly frightening.

How did Hoody get hold of Tim's medical records? It's staggeringly unlikely that they'd just be left in the burned-out hospital. Perhaps Tim's Masky personality is working with Hoody; either that, or Hoody is a much more formidable investigator than Jay.

I'd love to see Entry #61 involve Tim's return to Jay. "I saw your newest video, and I don't remember being in that hospital. What the hell is going on?" It would be nice to give Jay a break once in a while, and Troy and Joseph are obviously so fond of Tim (as a character) that it wouldn't surprise me for him to get over his tantrum in the parking lot, and side with Jay. Of course, that's just setting him up for the inevitable psychological collapse that will follow, but it would make for an interesting twist.

Next on Marble Hornets: Entry #60.5 reviews the papers, and Jay finds the address of Tim's childhood home. He goes there, and either finds Tim living there in the present... or a burned out shell. Calling it!

I do not see clear evidence of teleportation, apart noise and cuts, we must remember that this is not a tunnel, but a network of galleries to put in the pipes to all parts of the building. He could simply take another route.

I've noticed that at the end of the document is a different notation, "MD" (or something) that seems made by someone else later. I do not know what it means or if it matters ...

I found it funny:

"able to swallow pills": yes.

it looks like jay teleports at 8:21

also yeah, frame by frame'd again and the operator is definitely climbing the pipes in the beginning. wow that makes it a lot creepier.

i'm buying the "jay teleports" theory. suddenly the lighting is changed and the operator isn't behind jay anymore?
