Especially when there's a possibility that he said the wrong thing. The giant seemed like it was fine with just following him around, but once he said he wanted to leave, it got aggressive. It could have been the case that the giant was lonely after being abandoned along with the mall, and didn't want Wyatt to leave.

that's the thing is that we don't even know what the giant was trying to do because it never actually caught Wyatt. It was the fear of what it _could_ do.

The amount of cognitive dissonance I experienced watching Part 3 was uniquely high because I grew up in Dallas. I went to that mall. I saw that statue. It felt like I was watching a nightmare I never had. It was a deep sinking feeling of uncomfortable familiarity, and when the camera swings to reveal an AMC elevator I felt the soul leave my body as the only thing I could think was "Oh yeah, that's where I watched Revenge of the Sith. WAIT THAT'S WHERE I WATCHED REVENGE OF THE SITH????" For several minutes after I could no longer tell if it was CG or real, but I soon remembered that the last time I had watched a movie there, it was already getting torn down. I don't think that mall even exists anymore...

Blender renders are literally how CGI is made in movies. Same techniques as Maya or 3dsmax have used for the last 20 years. It should look real, because it sure as hell does in movies.

[@TheSurrealist.]

So I got my mom to watch The Oldest View Part 2&3. When we got to the part where Wyatt is in the mall and you see it’s Valley View Mall my mom was so confused. She’s old enough to remember going to that mall and had no idea this was all cgi. I waited until the end to tell her that. She was like “wait this doesn’t make sense Valley View is out on 635 why is it here in the middle of nowhere and underground??” I love that Kane used this mall of all malls for this story. I live pretty close to Dallas so that mall isn’t far from me. Or at least where it used to be. It burned down earlier this year. No one knows how or why. So Kane very accurately reconstructed a mall that no longer exists. My mom even commented on how accurate it is after telling her it was CGI.

@@batracio1415 exactly, I feel like at the start too it was sort of playing with its prey, stopping when it looked, not going up the stairs.. this thing enjoys the hunt and the chase because it knows it’s prey is trapped with no way of leaving Only getting truly violent when it sees him going up to the top exit and slamming into walls n stuff Also do we have any ideas what the flashes of horse carcasses were all about? When he was running across the edge of the ceiling he looked back and there were more horse bodies around the giant

[@batracio1415]

@@EliasPluto No clues on what the horses could mean. We have an idea of the plants and that stuff, since it relates to the botanist concept, but nothing related to horses. Maybe the dead animals (i think there was more than just horses, though i might be wrong Edit: I was wrong, they're all horses lmao) are meant to show how Wyatt, in spite of his human spirit and will to survive, is, in that situation, no different than a defenseless animal, like a horse, cow, etc.. Maybe that's how the Giant views him, as an unnecessarily greedy individual, that poked the sleeping bear many times in spite of it's numerous warnings and is now paying the consequences. The carcasses might also be there to contrast with the lifeless aesthetic of the mall i guess. Also i love how the video slowly progresses into a big: "I'm not trapped in here with you.. you are trapped in here with me" moment from the Giant, it just feels soo dreadful all the way through, i love it, absolutely love it.

Just realized that in the beginning of Part 3, Wyatt mentions that he got his trail cameras from his old Botany professor.

The "tower of babbel/arrogance of man" thing in horror is something that I've thought about a lot, but specifically how it relates to the audience. I wouldn't consider myself a horror fan, but I consume a lot of horror. Hell, I'm even here watching this video. Why is that? I think it's the same reason Wyatt goes down those steps: We need to know. We need to confront those fears. We need to figure out the mystery. Made in Abyss is an excellent example of this. There's a hole that's filled with monsters that will literally kill you if you try to leave, and yet, people go in willingly. Why? Because it is "the earth's last great mystery." Because they need to know what's at the bottom. It is a horrific and grisly show, but I keep watching. Because *I* need to know what's at the bottom too.

@@rosesongoku6980 That's the thing about this, Julian might appear inhumanly scary, but closer to the end, it feels as if he is just trolling Wyatt at this point, that "You gotta be fricking kidding me" from him felt as if he would have genuinely laughed at this sight if he wasn't on receiving end I think Mr. The oldest view, Trolling gigant is powerhouse of a character, i like everything about it.

[@rosesongoku6980]

@@Nicotrie You perfectly described the scene and both those guys' perspectives. I’d have lost it too just seeing Julien taking an escalator like it’s the end of a work day. He’s got so much character and the ambiguity helps. I agree, I like everything about him as well, the guy is 100% a troll.

I used to be a Mall Security Night Guard and I wasn’t issued a flashlight. My time at the mall gave me nightmares and this is straight up terrifying😊

Were you alone at your post? Or were there others with you

@@BenH124 most of the time is was just me. They had back hallways for delivery and maintenance that I had to patrol once a night and most of the lights in those back hallways were turned off.

@thejumpergaming4699 If anything, it’s like that one Poptropica island

A lot of that rolling giant video is completely indistinguishable from real footage. I was skipping around trying to find the spooky guy and had no idea it was CG for a few minutes. Absolutely phenomenal work from Kane.

You brought the Sub Zero and Scorpion, Ken and Ryu, Goku and Vegeta, King Kong and Godzilla, Stone Cold and The Rock, Biggie and Tupac of analog horror in the same room. You deserve another digit on your subs just for that. Legendary move Wendidude

Wendigoon and Lyra discussing Radar while watching it was so wholesome. It completely contrasts the short film, which is just full of...all the things that are legitimately terrifying.

ikr it was so wholesome
