AppleOfOurEye

There wasn't a topic for this series, and I wondered why, since it's really quite good. So I made one. First video:



Discuss, theorize, review, whatever. Now we have a thread for it. Yay.

elevator_child reviewed this for my site, and it sounded interesting from the bit I heard. I think I'll actually check this one out.

I have watched MLAndersen, Cheshy. I just... didn't like it too much. I much prefer AooE.

...Hmmmm, I shall observe this one. I need something between the other 7 series I watch.

*takes down note to watch this later*

Just watched the last upload on this one, thanks for pointing me in the right direction..

I found it easy going, not too heavy. Okay, you aren't an MLAndersen fan, but the one thing they both have in common is that they don't bog things down to omuch.

Despite the fact it doesn't over excite me, it makes for good viewing. As Lisa said, it makes for a good filler between everything else...Plus it isn't insulting enough to my intelligence [put Pantohorse intelligence joke here]

So it took me until Entry #5 to even start seeing it and I was taken back by the sudden switch from "Ima person wif a camera that fimz schtuffs for no real reason" to "weird angle... oh my! ACK!"

I really liked the way the change occurred. I'm going to watch Entry #6 tonight then continue the rest tomorrow. Whadda way to spend a Saturday.

ETA: Cut to an hour later and I've watched them all. I like the subtle things in this series. The overall acting is... not so good. The plot is... shotty. The overall flow is wonderful and the effects, both visual and audio are great. I love that they allow the audio distortion to almost be its own characters. Like the Orchard entry, we can't see hardly anything int he darkness, but then the slow crescendo of the static and feedback gives a forced feel of panic. I was spooked and that ain't easy to accomplish with noise (read: is a Silent Hill fangirl). My biggest compliant would probably lie in that I am not connected with these characters at all. I can't even remember half their names, even the M.C. who says his name at the beginning of each single entry.

Could be just me. I want characters that either save everything and make me work to figure them out or give everything away and allow me to feel like I know everything about this person. These kids just don't do anything for me. I do like the series though and look forward to more entries.

Well, it's overload over there at the moment. 3 videos uploaded in quick succession with an over dose of slender man in the final 2. Still, I'm sticking with this one just to see if there's anything new brought to the table.

I just saw that they were up. (I'm old person, so I tend to go to bed by like 11pm. Sad, I know.) So IMA WATCHIN' EM NAO!

In short, lots o' Slendy and awesome filters. This is becoming a Lisa watched AppleOfOurEye...

I

LOVE

THIS

SERIES.

That is all.

One problem I have with most video series about slenderman is that slendy never moves. The guy will have the camera, run around doing stupid things, then he'll see slenderman and run. This series actually shows slendy moving around. Not to mention the acting isn't terrible. The characters show emotion, UNLIKE SOME VIDEOS OUT THERE (*cough* *cough* Marblehornets)

The lack of hope brings home a certain feel to a Slender Man series. To lack hope is to lack emotion, because what is the point? I like this series, but bashing on MH for its hopeless undertones is not cool.

I think just STANDING THERE MENACINGLY can be just as creepy.

But Angel's Game has Slender Man move. It chases them at one point, albeit slowly.

which videos actually have slenderman? because i tried to watch them abit ago but my patience wore thin.

I know the 8th video is a good Slender Man episode. It is called Things That Go "Flash" In The Night.
