I don't like updating progress in this thread, but since it's been so long...
We filmed part of the next entry. If I can get to Brandon's house to edit stuff within the next few days, it'll be up... well, in the next few days.
Sorry the series is taking so long to end.

New one!
Spoiler:
There were a few giggles at the start, I totally saw what you were doing there, but honestly, it was pretty legitimately scary. At least, more scary than funny. I don't DISLIKE this at all, but the video sort of left me all confused with the blending of parody and kind of serious startlingness.
You know, this made me realize that the MBB guys could totally pull off some serious scary stuff if they really wanted to. Wouldn't THAT be a kick in the pants though: if some real slendervloggery came from this.(Not that I'm expecting it.)

Great to see you're still watching this old thing, Vivi.
And we thought about doing a serious one, then we actually looked at ourselves, laughed, and went on making this stuff.
But out of curiosity, would it be a good kick in the pants, or. . .?

Of course! You guys know I'm one of your biggest fans. I'm just very busy and can't always manage the time to comment on MBB after I've watched them.
As for that, well it depends. if it was bad, then of course, I couldn't say I'd be happy at all, cause in such an event, I'd have lost a beloved comedy series to an inadequate serious one. However if you made something seriously awesome come out of it, I'd be immensely impressed. It would have to be worth the shift in gears though, and you'd have to be committed to the genre shift, preferably while still retaining a palatable but subtle hint of comedic elements from days gone by. Essentially: It would be a challenge for you guys to do something /just/ right if you chose to.

I get where you're coming from, but I don't think we have the skill to turn this series to something serious without being abrupt, disappointing, and confusing, especially considering the first video (which should not be spoken of).
I think just starting another series would be easier, though it would be pretty hard to get viewers. Besides, Brandon and I have idea what we're going to do after MBB, so there's a small chance we'd do just that.
But don't count on it.

No matter what you guys decide, this has been a wonderful series and I love you for it. I laughed, and in the case of the last entry, worried stiff for the characters.
You came out of nowhere and gave us a great surprise, thanks for the entertainment!

I'm with Avatar, It's been a great series since the get go and we've all loved you for it. Plus, it was enjoyable to throw in a curveball and fit in some seriousness into this video.
The parody in it was as enjoyable as always too.

Livestream info. Sorry about the lack of a link, it'll be put there ASAP. But more importantly, I wanted to give people heads up on when it'll occur.
EDIT: And just FYI, it won't be in-character at all. It'll just be us chillin'.

So that's it. It's over.
As I said on the comments for the video. It's a shame it has to be over but all good things must come to an end. It was a great series; may not have commented much but I was watching it as much as possible and when I wasn't getting behind on stuff. It's been great to have this parody.
Hitch-hiking Slendy is awesome by the way. All it's missing is THAT incredible hulk tune.
Well good luck with whatever you guys go on to make next.

We have a question.
Brandon was originally going to make the commentary available via download, but we've discussed uploading it to the MarbleBumblebee channel. We believe it will reach the most people that way, but it would also break the pseudo-immersion we've tried so hard to maintain.
I'm of the opinion that now that the series is over, credits and all, immersion isn't as necessary as it was when we filmed the bloopers episode.
Do any of you object to putting it on the channel?

I'm fine with it. as you said. Bloopers episode.
Only one guy though, might have to wait for others opinion too. But I don't see any harm now that it's over.

Ah, you're kidding me- it's over? The best parody series out there in this genre. I suppose all good things must come to an end.
Bravo MarbleBumblebees team. I believe you've earned an interwebs applause, and I hope to see more from you and your crew soon.

Unfortunately I don't believe we'll ever see anything from them again. If we do, it will be a pleasant and godlike return.

If you ever happen to see us again, it probably won't be Slender-related at all. We do have our own channels on YouTube, but collaborative efforts are few and far between.

I don't think I ever sounded off on this. First of all cheers to ending the series. I adored it and will enjoy it for as long as it stays on youtube. But I also love it when a series has an end. So many start out great, keep going well, then either run out of ideas or just go until it becomes ad nasuem. I feel like people forget the most basic part of storytelling. There is a beginning, a middle AND an end.
I'm completely looking forward to any other projects you'll be working on. (has other interests besides Slender Man lol) Please give me a link when its underway. Good luck!

I really do miss them. :/ Even though this was a parody, this series a charm that will never wear off or die.
