Sunday, March 09, 2008 4:06:47 PM There are 2 things that hint that the guy and the monster are the same person. When the monster is climbing up the tower, if you pause at one point it's the guy not the monster, and the other one when the guy is running behind pillars, between 2 of the pillars which are close together, it's the monster not the guy. |

Sunday, March 09, 2008 11:58:49 AM When the butterfly came back to life, I thought that maybe the lover would come back to life too. It didn't happen. I thought they looked cool, but not the 2nd personality/monster of the dude. He made me barf a little. |

Sunday, March 09, 2008 11:33:48 AM Whatever, DaveyyBooy. Would anyone call this Lovecraftian? Although I think it's a stretch to say that it's of the same nature as Poe's work, you can't deny that the animation was Burton-esque. He sees the monster because he's experiencing memories as an onlooker to the situation, detached from it. And then he realizes that the monster is himself. |

Sunday, March 09, 2008 9:32:15 AM Uh this sucked. It was nothing like Poe or Burton (that's an insult to their work if you ask me). And it made no sense. I understand your arguments about MPD, but that's not really how it works. If they were two personalities of him, how would he see the monster dragging her 500 feet away in a cave? And how would he see its hand pulling her off of that ledge. This is gay. Oh and the music drating blew chunks. |

Sunday, March 09, 2008 8:11:47 AM By removing the girl, he cripples the power of the weaker personality, and is able to take over.So we see two themes here: man vs. himself, and love vs. selfishness (hate and love are too similar, selfishness is the true opposite of love). And of course the overall destructive nature of love.

Sunday, March 09, 2008 8:11:14 AM in response to Kaizer250You have to consider that some people develop MPD to supplement missing qualities in their life. How do I put this...a weaker quiet person may wish to be more dominant, so much to the point that they develop a dominant, and overpowering personality. Their motives could aid in this process; they may want to be stronger to protect someone, or because they fear for their life. Enough to create a new personality (have you ever seen Fight club?). I think this clip DOES explain why he develops the alternate personality. Going off the theory that the alternate personality is a supplicant personality, then you can assume it is his sub-concious interest to be alone, and in control. It may also mean that he secretly hates himself. How can we support this? When the girl is around we see the weaker personality. Because she brings out "the good" in him. This is a threat to the stronger personality, as he wants to take over, not share. By removing th |
