filler is something that fills in the gaps between meaningful plot points. that's exactly what this is

It's best not to engage, some people cannot be swayed.

The day he took the tape was the day after entry 33. The day him and Jay woke up near the hut was years later.

Either that's a huge continuity error, or Hoody gave it to Tim expecting him to give it to Jay rather than just giving it to Jay himself. They're really going to have to dig deep to find rational ways to explain hoody's actions

ugh

another filler entry. it kind of seems like theyre just writing it as they go along, which is something they should not be doing with a series that has 2-4 week gaps between entries

all im sayin is if i was in control, people would have had this entry 2-3 weeks ago. literally just had to meet up for a half hour one day to film this, and maybe a few hours to add in that one part with distortion.

Do you reckon it would of been better to be a tweet saying something like "Tim here, I tied Jay up and off to South Creek which is the school Amy went to"?

What about the people who don't follow the twitter and when the next entry could potentially be Tim looking around there for clues etc. and the casual viewer is like "wtf, how did this happen?".

I believe there are two ways we can interpret this:

Tim is being honest. This is supported by Jay's clearly irrational behaviour. In that case, Tim went to the college right after this was filmed, yet still posted it. This creates a slight contradiction, unless either there will be another video very soon or something happened that can't be revealed yet.

Tim is being deceitful. In this case, Jay's behaviour was appropriate, and now we are being fed false information by Tim. Perhaps he didn't go to the college, or the location isn't one. This would explain the fact that this video was uploaded despite him having logically completed this journey by upload time.


I'd like to believe "I'll just be going out now and leaving you conveniently bound and cameraless" means Jay's bait and Tim's ditching his car far enough from the apartment to not be obvious about it.

Maybe Hoodie kept the tape all this time and decided to give it to Tim at the hut?
Assuming you meant the tape was recorded after #33.

We never saw him take it in 76, so based on this entry we can assume he never took the tape after 33 and Hoody took it and gave it to him in 62.

Not gonna try and argue the filler thing with you, because I know you'll just be convinced you're right no matter what, and I think I'm gonna resist the urge to comment on the fact that you actually have convinced yourself that you could make the series better than they can too.

No it would have been better to attach this footage to the footage of Tim going to the house, or just have Tim go himself, film and upload it, and not include any of the dialogue about Jessica that wasn't really all that important anyway

You could easily have cut from the last entry to Tim wandering the house as long as he mentioned somewhere it was Tim. The series should not be catering to casuals this late in the game, it should be catering to dedicated fans

Hoody's insane. There, I explained it. There's a whole youtube channel of evidence for this theory.

Also, the protagonist has been supplanted. That isn't "filler".

Clearing the air regarding Jessica's status, Jay's continued descent into madness, the next destination, and Tim fully taking the Marble Hornets helm. This entry was the exact opposite of filler.
