@@DarthOblivious7891 What would you like to observe for him to have been broken? We must assume the other residents are broken since they target Boyd specifically/differently.

You are right about the trade for randal then leaving him alive...it was used to turn people against boyd to lose their trust...but then again randal was scared of something more than death
The monsters may not have hive mind when it comes to the people/humans but they are definitely connected to the "entity" and each other mentally ...they know when to walk away or proceed without even looking at each other.
That would be something more akin to telepathy, the main entity having some level of control or means to send messages over long distances via mental communication.
I think it's just playing with Boyd because he's interesting. I feel like the monsters are little more than cats that play with their toys before destroying them. I feel like it's more likely that Tabitha was sent to the real world specifically to get Victor's Dad, because there is something Victor has to remember and Henry is the trigger to get Victor to do something.
They are also playing with Victor. The woman Victor and his father met in the caves could easily have killed them from behind, but she just stood there.
@@Langkowskiyeah, they are playing with their prey. i feel like the entities read them through ways we cant imagine, think of this, Boyd said and yelled “you cant break me!” they either heard that through the forest, or something else. the hallucinations and stuff. reason tabitha made it was probably she had a feeling to actually save the children something no one else had except victors mother. and i wonder the only reason they even ended back up was because she was thinking of this place over and over. manifestations
The entity is fucking with Boyd because hes the only one left with any hope, he refuses to accept their situation. The entity needs more time to crack Boyd so the entity brought Victors dad back with tabitha so Victor would get confused and make him slow down the pace of his search for answers since hes getting too close.
The Entity sounds like a very sophisticated and intelligent narcissist... keeping its victims going with the prospect of hope and then feeding off their attention and despair. Very much liking your theory!
Tabitha and Jade are wild cards here. Whatever is controlling the town took Boyd's words TOO personally and will now hyper focus on him and not pay enough attention to Tabitha and Jade and they will find answers.
That means that there is no escaping fromville, if the entity is capable of bringing anyone back at any time, escape is not an option, fromville has to go on the offensive and kill it once and for all. Boyd being the force that unites everyone to that goal makes his torture session more logical.
Yeah, I thought about that, if anyone gets back to the real world, I would presume they would never leave their own home or walk down the street or drive in a car…. You know that fallen tree is gonna show up right when you drive down your street and or walk a block.🤷🏻♂️🙏😂💯
If the entity knew that Tabitha was going to be coming back and that the monsters needed to set a trap for her at a specific time, that indicates that the boy and white was part of the plan and cannot be trusted. It also should indicate that getting Victor's father was also part of the plan and the real reason for sending Tabitha into the real world so is the real goal to break Victor?
They either knew Tabitha was coming because that was the plan all along or the birds are the eye in the sky during the day...because Tabitha got out of the ambulance...the birds seen them at the tree before it even got dark...but the trees had them drive and drive giving them time to set a trap
Fascinating take! There’s a group of people that are targeted in real life know as targeted individuals. What ever entities are targeting us slowly discredit, dismantle, and destroy people’s lives across the board. The ultimate goal is to create despair in this way, meaning making us feel hopeless.
But idk if the power of this thing is limited, if it can manipulate the weather, it's possible it can flood them out, if it can crush A house, it's fair to say it can crush all house and talisman and structures, and cause famine, I totally agree it feeds off despair as if the people are batteries to it, like matrix neo unplugging
Maybe the animals (the dogs and the birds) are used in a way to tell somebody what someone is doing or saying because its a bit convenient that the birds show up at the right time through the window, the fallen tree or the dog being there when boyde said "you don't fucking break me" and then running off afterwards.
It could also mean that Fatima is turning into a monster and maybe that’s how the monsters, who were once human, turned into monsters. The town gave them a taste for flesh and made them monsters
When Ethan wakes up in the car in the second, or was it the third, episode in season 1, he says he had a dream about a large spider coming from the roof.
I think on the Finale, Fatima will turn into monster and kill Ellis, it will break Boyd for sure. And also will destroy hope from the town. That's the Entity plans.
So what’s the overall plan then? Wipe the humans out? Bring people in just to feed the monsters? Some sort of game or test to see if anyone can win and leave? Where even is this place…. Is it the classic purgatory realm? I bloody love shoot like this, full of mystery and wanting more
The place reminds me of how ancient pocket dimensions where described a la "Fairyland" - the creatures here are bound by rules; no human has ever entered Fairyland on their own volition and no human can escape without being allowed to leave or beating a fairy game. Often times those who escape do so with partial amnesia and time is distorted, if they where in there for a month in the real world 50 years passed. The creatures there enjoy playing games with people and by games I mean essentially everything from simple pranks to mind 🍇. Ancient trickster beings did similar things, and I feel they all allude to the same entity. In modern times UFO abductions fit the same bill.
I think the monsters want to escape equally bad. They have severe limitations, recharging in horizontal caves with lighthouse and Faraway Trees being vertical. Need to cull the herd, not for food as in Time Machine, but to weed out those focusing on family which favors nesting and feathering their nest. They want those clinging ACTIVELY to hope in escaping. Just keeping status quo is not making themselves useful. Finally found people making progress by risking and determination. That will save their life. Monsters are probably one element, humans another with a third that barely evades evil dimension collisions, not controlling. They also are subject to bad effects.
this episodes shows creatures are not just animals with instict, they have higher thought - than I started thinking, if that is so, why not set fire to all the houses, and than all people whould have to run out. I think playing with food is what brings them joy or sustanance, and if they really wished, they could end the whole town in one single night - but they savior it, enjoying one hunt per time, like not just watching it, but being part of it. This is truly how I envision hell would be, just suffering and fear, no hope, and always something worse waiting for tomorrow
or in other words: Plot armor. Otherwise the show would be over. The monsters can't go on for months without killing, otherwise they'd drag people out or break the rules. It's not fun when the people play by the rules and the monsters realize they are now playing the waiting game. This whole show is just stupid and lacks intelligence. I have watched every episode and up until Season 2 my overall rating was a 7/10. The new season now show rates at 6/10. It drags, there is nothing smart about it. It's just dialogue and mysteries and "omg i had the same vision when I was a child" "omg I had that dream years ago". means NOTHING.
they can also lay traps that would keep people in one place until dark, or that would end people there and then. The thing is, only explanation is savouring and playing with hunt, pure evil
I feel like whatever is there pretty much engineers everything almost as a set up. Like it's messing with everyone and nothing is really by accident or of their own free will. I don't know why. I guess we'll see. I hope this show continues for a while. I enjoy it. Thanks for the video.
Randal wouldn't have been hurt at all if not for the cicada hallucination. He could've just thrown the talisman to Boyd and Boyd could've closed the doors of the ambulance and they would've been safe. and Randal could've ran back to any house. Or even walked there. since the monsters don't run behind their prey.
I tried to find some theories online about this show, but they are all simple and unintresting - until I found yur channel. Great thinking, instant sub
It's an out there take for sure. But I'm starting to believe Boyd himself is somehow directly tied to the entity. Either he's the fallen angel (Lucifer, with a minor possibility of his name etymology Boyd 'fair, yellow' reflecting that; also there might be a nod to his position as 'light bearer' in Boyd carrying a torch; plus 'day star' or 'son of the morning' could showcase his power of protecting the Fromville denizens in the daytime while he's weakened enough at night for the monsters to roam free and wreak havoc) to the entity's God or he's a sliver of the entity itself that got too close to humans and was craving first-hand experience of how it felt to be human, thereby losing itself/himself over time. He's suspiciously adept at rustling up just the things that are needed: the goat, the talismans, the worms. His daughter-in-law is either carrying a demon/monster child or turning into a Smiley replacement herself. Maybe their intention of breaking him refers to his self-inflicted delusion of humanity; they want to shatter his false beliefs and bring him back into the fold.
Several of the season 1 monsters haven't come back. I'm guessing because of reduced budget. But I wonder if they'll ever explain it in universe? i.e., maybe those monsters were busy somewhere else doing something away from town.
I noticed that too. Like the boy monster from episode 1 (or maybe episode 2) that knew Julie's name, I'm surprised he didnt come back to taunt Julie more.

5:13 considering how dumb the town people I don't find it hard to believe at all that they'll turn on him quick asf they'll 4get he's the one who kept them Alive all these years he's the one who found the talismans and the all the animals they 4get they was living like roaches be4 he got there
I think that the entity is so invested in breaking people because that is how they become monsters. It wants certain people to turn because this will have a bigger impact on their community when they see their leaders each night with the other monsters and cause the community to lose hope as well
Agreed. Once they lose all hope, the entity has them and can turn them. Kinda like a vampire entity sucking all the hope from people instead of blood. Throws them false hope though - like Tabitha getting out for all of a day.
@gizbot9366 yep. My theory is that Fatima has lost all hope and is now turning into one of them. Before she fully turns though, she will help them figure out how to kill the monsters.
ngl this makes so much sense and i love it i also think that the town doesnt only fear boyd but his ability to make people unite even when they are completely broken like kenny / jade should be completely broken by now and depressed yet we see they still are trying and thats mostly because of boyd victors father that hope is what kept people together and boyd is that hope
I can pick apart most of everything that you said. But I won't because my homegirl and I are trying to see who can figure it out first, and I've hit the jackpot at least 10+ times. I think that there is someone within the towns people that is a part of this what's going on. I think they (the creatures) allowed Randell to live just so he can be turned, allowing him to hunt during the day as well. I also think that Tabatha is Victor sister. Or related in some sort of way. I feel like Victors sister did make it out but can't remember because of a head injury. I think that Mariel will be Randells first victim but he won't find Kristi. Ending with Kristi and Kenny being together. Jade, I feel, is going to play a major part in solving the mystery along with Victor, Henry and Elgin. I feel like Boyd isn't going to make it to the ending but plays a major roll in the distraction in getting everyone else home. I want to say more but prying eyes might be watching 😂😅
@@gaeouhgaeae I have to agree. Though the last part about Boyd would make for an iconic ending to the show. Also Tabitha is too young to be Victor's sister and is Hispanic her own mom is alive and well. Victor is 56yo ...but M3ntally about 10.
Had a thought i think everything that is happening whoever is controlling this game once they heard Boyd rebel against them by saying "you can't break me" and now we see how the monsters are more terrifying not towards boyd but the people he cares for which i believe this season something might happen to his son due to Fatiama they will make boyd break that's all whoever is over seeing this wants everyone is just apart of this game other than a few other characters i thin this season will end with a broken boyd and maybe we will see that Boyd's actions are the cause of the snow and no food and people dying it will all fall back on boyd because everyone trusts him to lead but he cannot save everyone cause he has no power to do so
4:43 I don’t they knew she was coming back days in advance but I think they can sense when a new set of people arrive either that or the crows alerted them and since it was already close to dark they set the trap if they arrived in the morning I don’t think the monsters would have broke routine
But they had to know because why would the monster pretend to be hurt in that way? I’m thinking because they knew EMT would try and help what appeared to be a wounded woman in the road
@@caroldouglas3923 that’s what I’m saying I don’t think they knew when she escaped that she’ll be back but they was alerted to their arrival when they got back
When you say Boyd abandoned Randall, the way I look at it is he betrayed him. I think with all the motifs we have seen since season one its clear we are looking at the story of the sun and solar cycle. Season three has been the fall into the winter solstice, Scorpio is the kiss of death and betrayer of the sun. Randall is also personifying Hydra, the wounded beast.
Nothing high brow about Boyd leaving Randall behind. He had to make that choice. Save one person or three people? What would a soldier do? Easy choice. Plus Randall is expendable. Not Tabatha who’s just come back after leaving this trap.
IMO the monsters are for sure "hive mind". Boyd can talk to any one of them and they know the same things about him. Also in the most recent episode with Victor and his dad in the cave, seems like they know where people are at all times and decide who and when to take them out. They leave Victor alone most likely because he has never made any attempt to escape or change the way things are in that place. Could also be a ploy by the "entity" for new people who arrive at this town that meet Victor, giving them false hope that they can survive if he has survived decades.
There's something to the hope thing constantly brought up. The cycle of hope and despair. It builds them up for a fall like a sadist. But if the people all passed on before, how does that help the entity? The implication has been that it's happening again but how does that help it?
We also don't know if something happend to Dale before he ended up in the wall and after he entered the tree. Could something have happened before that. And then he ended up in the pool. Or was it straight from the tree directly to the pool. I don't know.
I dont think the entity's are scared of Boyd at all othewise why not just kill him when having the chance and destroying everyone elses hopes for good? Instead now with keeping him alive they know that somehow they want Boyd to feel hurt. Idk how this show will go but I just hope it will make sense in the end and dont just ignore questions or keeping more questions.
Remember Boyd said to Sara “they use to scream all night before the talisman now the whisper I always wondered why is that”! I wonder too they scream when Tab argue with Jim like it’s some point of communication.
I think this show has had a reduced budget since season 2. The show just looks cheaper, and there's a lot less people than there used to be. Though I guess in story they could say they got killed by the monsters the past couple of years.
Show gets bigger, main actors get better contacts, more screen time & the stories are developed around characters we know. Poor townies! Poor monsters....literally! That's the way of the extras/background talent, & below-the-line actors!
It all comes down to this: FROM is a science fiction tv show masquerading as a horror tv show (more accurately, it is a sci-fi horror show). Get ready FROMily for answers coming from quantum physics, general relativity, cosmology, theories of consciousness, higher dimensions, etc. I believe The Entity will eventually be revealed to be human.
@@jameswest9469it’s still science fiction because nobody knows how they got there and has no idea how to get out 😂😂😂 one more thing. How do the houses have electricity with wires hanging in the basement 😂😂. A tree portal is not normal physics 😂

Ngl I'm boyd in taking out the crows after they repeated what I said during the day without being around at all and after finding out that bird ran thru the window when they old lady pulled out the taro cards I'd immediately assume the birds are connected to the monsters
episodes like this I wish they would really start working together instead of being enemies towards each other because of the town and how they are stuck there. nobody seems to think that these monsters are in one spot where all the electronics is in any other thing that they can get their hands on that they can use against them and I honestly think that there is somebody in their group that is already a monster that constantly leaves at night because how else would you sit here and say they get in some type of information
I think that's why the boy in white isn't "good", just seeming so to be able to do what the entity wants. When Victor buried the items of the town members, I feel this amped up the fears for the town- remember when Sara said her brother was afraid of cicadas? That was well after he died and the ten members buried him(assuming so)
I don't think the entity is capable of benevolence...especially over a long time as with victor - 46 years. I think its a "game" between the two - the boy v the entity, with rules only they know...that both must follow. The boy could also be trapped there as well and made to play this game, as him failing to save the ppl somehow feeds the entity. The end of each cycle determines who wins...but the boy seems to want to end it. The entity is powerful because it has likely won most past rounds as it draws strength from the despair and hopelessness of the residents, and the sorrow of the boy in white when he fails to save them.
responses. Problem. Reaction. Solution. Kind of like we are now huh? Getting dragged back ONLY worked when in a vehicle. How could it happen while walking? It'd only happen if you didn't know where you're going in the real world. What would have happened if they were to have walked instead of driving. ALSO, they were only able to return to the ALT Dimension because they had no control of the vehicles- The ambulance was driven by strangers. Tab and Vic's pop had no bearing of direction.
How did they know Tabitha was returning to town for the ambush, it does slightly show some type of tethering, even them halting attack when randall had donna detain but was overwhelmed by the walkers, they halted attack. So to me there's a hive mind trait there and perhaps not to all seeing or limited, the walkers either knew Tabitha was returning or they was told somehow, the military troops is a hive mind to the commander and president
I think Tabitha was sent back to from at the moment she was because Boyd was going to capture one of the monsters. Notice how there has not been a single mention of Boyd's plan to capture a monster since Tabitha arrived, it feels too well timed for it not to have been the purpose to derail Tabitha from seeing the original bottle tree and to stop Boyd from capturing a monster. I don't think it's ever been addressed why the monsters can't come out in the daytime, so I would like to see what happens to them in sunlight.
I feel like what happened to Dale will reinforce Boyd's leadership again, so maybe the Big Bad didn't count on that happening? If they don't listen to Boyd, see what might happen? That kind of thing.
What if we instead interpret the title of the show itself in the reflection of a philosophical concept. Where does happiness come FROM? a reflection from how bad things could be? In order to appreciate life, in order to feel alive, there has to be something that is overcome. It is why no matter how much anyone has in life, everyone always has something to bitch about. We spend so much time focusing on how horrible things are when they are amazing. However there is something beautiful about how these people have found happiness, joy, and hope even in a place that twists everything good against you.
also: It seems (potentially) that a lot of the characters came here at times in their lives where they didnt know how they could continue on but were trying to find a way to have hope and purpose. (Losing a child and trying to keep living, struggling with extreme addiction and finally getting help to move on, having terminal illness to a level where you carry around drugs to kill yourself yet trying to travel and find purpose, A veteran struggling with ptsd who no longer has his work to distract him trying to just be a father(boyd). Now they are all in a place where everything forces you to struggle. The constant change means you always have a purpose, there is always something to learn, or fight, or discover. This town has given them all purpose.
Monsters trying to break Boyd rather than kill him is like a drawn out version of a Bond Villain waxing poetic instead of just killing 007. I love the show though. I also noticed something at the beginning of this video when you showed Smiley dying. Was he crying I think I see some tears? Did his humanity come back to him right before he died?
Now I want to know who made those talisman did the entity made it or other people and why was it hidden Did the entity put those talisman there like power ups in a Mario game
This show is from the makers of Lost, I believe there is not one entity but a good vs evil again, like the boy in white who seems to guide them and keep them safe in some scenes, and then the darker force that is trying to break them.
I got to ask, how was the zombie old lady able to pick up the talisman? If it effects the enclosed space then doesn't the physical body , the structure itself on which the formula of talisman is inscribed protected? Yes it held the talisman through the string attached but still, Why?
What if?...Randol was an uber dats delivery for Fatima?? They tore him up but didn't kill him. Made sure there was enough blood and delivered him to colony house at the front door. Now think of Fatima like a newly turned vampire, she cannot resist and the monsters knew so the whole plan was to tempt her. But instead someone else got shot and died so instead of being tempted infront of everyone she actually got to be alone with the dead body while everyone focused on Randol.
Also I don't think Tabitha leaving the town was the towns doing. I think that was all the boy in whites plan. I think she was indeed sent to get Victor's dad and to find out what she did. But knowing the town would eventually bring her back the first chance it got, the boy in white already knew she would have come back with him. The trap was indeed a trap but think of the town as a well secured prison...the moment u see the tree/enter the gates, it already knows ur back.
I loved your points and thoughts, they were well put together. But that damn giggle, though... It makes it so much harder to watch, at least for me. But keep up the good work :)
He scaled the laugh back A LOT in this video. I'm so glad because I love watching his videos, but couldn't tolerate the laugh. Thank you Mr. UA-camr for toning that down. Sorry I don't remember your name. I legit have a brain injury and memory issues from that.

I'm rewatching season 1 right now. Crazy how simple they seemed compared to now.
S1 they were basically walking dead no brain
Never simple, just playing a slow game. S1 easy mode.
That means that there is no escaping fromville, if the entity is capable of bringing anyone back at any time, escape is not an option, fromville has to go on the offensive and kill it once and for all. Boyd being the force that unites everyone to that goal makes his torture session more logical.

I find it ironic that Nikki, the one who gets shot and feasted on by Fatima, is also the one who was rude to Fatima....
i found that odd.
Also she’s the one that touched the “bad juju crow” that the bus driver said she wasn’t gonna touch so she didn’t get any bad juju

When Ethan wakes up in the car in the second, or was it the third, episode in season 1, he says he had a dream about a large spider coming from the roof.
hmmm i guess thats where all the cobweb in the forest came from. maybe the spider wasnt a dream but a vision?
So incredible interesting the dog was the only one present for that declaration from Boyd
One of the best breakdowns I've seen and agreed 100%.
excellent editing and presentation, i know how much time it takes to make a video like this, keep making this lit shit bro . more power to you
Giving Boyd the keys to drive! Says something.
I think on the Finale, Fatima will turn into monster and kill Ellis, it will break Boyd for sure. And also will destroy hope from the town. That's the Entity plans.
From the leaks it takes a different turn
10:31 6. They planted something in Randall that will spring out by the season finale.
Randell screwed hisself. He could have ran and swatted at the Cicadas. He flopped like a NBA player was his own fault and caused his own demise.
So what’s the overall plan then? Wipe the humans out? Bring people in just to feed the monsters? Some sort of game or test to see if anyone can win and leave? Where even is this place…. Is it the classic purgatory realm?

Need to cull the herd, not for food as in Time Machine, but to weed out those focusing on family which favors nesting and feathering their nest. They want those clinging ACTIVELY to hope in escaping. Just keeping status quo is not making themselves useful. Finally found people making progress by risking and determination. That will save their life. Monsters are probably one element, humans another with a third that barely evades evil dimension collisions, not controlling. They also are subject to bad effects.
this episodes shows creatures are not just animals with instict, they have higher thought - than I started thinking, if that is so, why not set fire to all the houses, and than all people whould have to run out. I think playing with food is what brings them joy or sustanance, and if they really wished, they could end the whole town in one single night - but they savior it, enjoying one hunt per time, like not just watching it, but being part of it. This is truly how I envision hell would be, just suffering and fear, no hope, and always something worse waiting for tomorrow
or in other words: Plot armor. Otherwise the show would be over. The monsters can't go on for months without killing, otherwise they'd drag people out or break the rules. It's not fun when the people play by the rules and the monsters realize they are now playing the waiting game. This whole show is just stupid and lacks intelligence. I have watched every episode and up until Season 2 my overall rating was a 7/10. The new season now show rates at 6/10. It drags, there is nothing smart about it. It's just dialogue and mysteries and "omg i had the same vision when I was a child" "omg I had that dream years ago". means NOTHING.
they can also lay traps that would keep people in one place until dark, or that would end people there and then. The thing is, only explanation is savouring and playing with hunt, pure evil
0:36 That dog is the entity. Doggo: "- We don't break yo? We'll see!"
dang...
I hope she births the smiley man, that was the best monster.
I feel like whatever is there pretty much engineers everything almost as a set up. Like it's messing with everyone and nothing is really by accident or of their own free will. I don't know why.
I guess we'll see. I hope this show continues for a while. I enjoy it.
Thanks for the video.
Randal wouldn't have been hurt at all if not for the cicada hallucination. He could've just thrown the talisman to Boyd and Boyd could've closed the doors of the ambulance and they would've been safe. and Randal could've ran back to any house. Or even walked there. since the monsters don't run behind their prey.
Been enjoying the channel!🍻
It's like the entity from the Hotel in Angel, feeding off the humans pain and betrayal
So the monsters have started to shriek again. . .
these monsters were also someone s childhood nightmare
I tried to find some theories online about this show, but they are all simple and unintresting - until I found yur channel. Great thinking, instant sub
It's an out there take for sure. But I'm starting to believe Boyd himself is somehow directly tied to the entity. Either he's the fallen angel (Lucifer, with a minor possibility of his name etymology Boyd 'fair, yellow' reflecting that; also there might be a nod to his position as 'light bearer' in Boyd carrying a torch; plus 'day star' or 'son of the morning' could showcase his power of protecting the Fromville denizens in the daytime while he's weakened enough at night for the monsters to roam free and wreak havoc) to the entity's God or he's a sliver of the entity itself that got too close to humans and was craving first-hand experience of how it felt to be human, thereby losing itself/himself over time.
He's suspiciously adept at rustling up just the things that are needed: the goat, the talismans, the worms. His daughter-in-law is either carrying a demon/monster child or turning into a Smiley replacement herself. Maybe their intention of breaking him refers to his self-inflicted delusion of humanity; they want to shatter his false beliefs and bring him back into the fold.
I think the monsters will eventually try to break Boyd by doing something to Ellis.
You have great analysis!
There is more than one evil entity. Possibly four.
How so?
Six
3.5
How do you come up with these numbers
@@JULIAOVLOGSZthe dog /jasper/ the monsters/ the music box/ the witch that Ellis sees /the mastermind/ and the deeman
Several of the season 1 monsters haven't come back. I'm guessing because of reduced budget. But I wonder if they'll ever explain it in universe? i.e., maybe those monsters were busy somewhere else doing something away from town.
I noticed that too. Like the boy monster from episode 1 (or maybe episode 2) that knew Julie's name, I'm surprised he didnt come back to taunt Julie more.
5:13 considering how dumb the town people I don't find it hard to believe at all that they'll turn on him quick asf they'll 4get he's the one who kept them Alive all these years he's the one who found the talismans and the all the animals they 4get they was living like roaches be4 he got there
wait.. at 8:51 you can see Victor's dad's head support thing with the label reading 'mabuse'... is this relating to Dr.Mabuse?!?
I think that the entity is so invested in breaking people because that is how they become monsters. It wants certain people to turn because this will have a bigger impact on their community when they see their leaders each night with the other monsters and cause the community to lose hope as well
Agreed. Once they lose all hope, the entity has them and can turn them. Kinda like a vampire entity sucking all the hope from people instead of blood. Throws them false hope though - like Tabitha getting out for all of a day.
@gizbot9366 yep. My theory is that Fatima has lost all hope and is now turning into one of them. Before she fully turns though, she will help them figure out how to kill the monsters.
We saw the same when the Randall was laying on the forest floor with white eyes. The monsters didn't hurt him.
ngl this makes so much sense and i love it
i also think that the town doesnt only fear boyd but his ability to make people unite even when they are completely broken
like kenny / jade should be completely broken by now and depressed yet we see they still are trying and thats mostly because of boyd
victors father that hope is what kept people together and boyd is that hope
I can pick apart most of everything that you said. But I won't because my homegirl and I are trying to see who can figure it out first, and I've hit the jackpot at least 10+ times. I think that there is someone within the towns people that is a part of this what's going on. I think they (the creatures) allowed Randell to live just so he can be turned, allowing him to hunt during the day as well. I also think that Tabatha is Victor sister. Or related in some sort of way. I feel like Victors sister did make it out but can't remember because of a head injury. I think that Mariel will be Randells first victim but he won't find Kristi. Ending with Kristi and Kenny being together. Jade, I feel, is going to play a major part in solving the mystery along with Victor, Henry and Elgin. I feel like Boyd isn't going to make it to the ending but plays a major roll in the distraction in getting everyone else home. I want to say more but prying eyes might be watching 😂😅
Wrong wrong wrong right wrong wrong wrong
Sorry. Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong right wrong wrong I meant
@@gaeouhgaeae I have to agree. Though the last part about Boyd would make for an iconic ending to the show. Also Tabitha is too young to be Victor's sister and is Hispanic her own mom is alive and well. Victor is 56yo ...but M3ntally about 10.
@@MuantanamoMobile yes that part alright. I would say that it's even likely that he's going to die .
they’re a hivemind. we see them all stop at the same time in season two. the real question is: who is the queen bee?
They need Ash from Evil Dead to take some BOOMSTICK and chainsaw go those monsters.
😅😂
The town also needs buffy the vampire slayer. She can easily kill those creatures with weapons
Had a thought i think everything that is happening whoever is controlling this game once they heard Boyd rebel against them by saying "you can't break me" and now we see how the monsters are more terrifying not towards boyd but the people he cares for which i believe this season something might happen to his son due to Fatiama they will make boyd break that's all whoever is over seeing this wants everyone is just apart of this game other than a few other characters i thin this season will end with a broken boyd and maybe we will see that Boyd's actions are the cause of the snow and no food and people dying it will all fall back on boyd because everyone trusts him to lead but he cannot save everyone cause he has no power to do so
4:43 I don’t they knew she was coming back days in advance but I think they can sense when a new set of people arrive either that or the crows alerted them and since it was already close to dark they set the trap if they arrived in the morning I don’t think the monsters would have broke routine
But they had to know because why would the monster pretend to be hurt in that way? I’m thinking because they knew EMT would try and help what appeared to be a wounded woman in the road
@@caroldouglas3923 that’s what I’m saying I don’t think they knew when she escaped that she’ll be back but they was alerted to their arrival when they got back
@@Stonecoldalstonthat makes sense
Oh yeah from the last video could the little boy in white actually be the entity?
When you say Boyd abandoned Randall, the way I look at it is he betrayed him. I think with all the motifs we have seen since season one its clear we are looking at the story of the sun and solar cycle. Season three has been the fall into the winter solstice, Scorpio is the kiss of death and betrayer of the sun. Randall is also personifying Hydra, the wounded beast.
Drugs is gud man
@@gaeouhgaeaehell yeah brother
Was the dog the way the monsters heard Boyd say you dont break me?
Nothing high brow about Boyd leaving Randall behind. He had to make that choice. Save one person or three people? What would a soldier do? Easy choice. Plus Randall is expendable. Not Tabatha who’s just come back after leaving this trap.
IMO the monsters are for sure "hive mind". Boyd can talk to any one of them and they know the same things about him. Also in the most recent episode with Victor and his dad in the cave, seems like they know where people are at all times and decide who and when to take them out. They leave Victor alone most likely because he has never made any attempt to escape or change the way things are in that place. Could also be a ploy by the "entity" for new people who arrive at this town that meet Victor, giving them false hope that they can survive if he has survived decades.
There's something to the hope thing constantly brought up. The cycle of hope and despair. It builds them up for a fall like a sadist.
But if the people all passed on before, how does that help the entity? The implication has been that it's happening again but how does that help it?
We also don't know if something happend to Dale before he ended up in the wall and after he entered the tree. Could something have happened before that. And then he ended up in the pool. Or was it straight from the tree directly to the pool. I don't know.
I dont think the entity's are scared of Boyd at all othewise why not just kill him when having the chance and destroying everyone elses hopes for good? Instead now with keeping him alive they know that somehow they want Boyd to feel hurt. Idk how this show will go but I just hope it will make sense in the end and dont just ignore questions or keeping more questions.
i was thinking that, if its afraid of him why leave him alive
Maybe if he dies he wakes up. Maybe it's all a dream and if boyd dies he is more powerful and he can release everyone else????? Not sure
And to think this is the best From channel on youtube
since the talismans won't let the monsters inside, I have a feeling some sort of curse is going on
Great psychological analysis of the (writer's) entity. 👏🏾
Remember Boyd said to Sara “they use to scream all night before the talisman now the whisper I always wondered why is that”! I wonder too they scream when Tab argue with Jim like it’s some point of communication.
Will Boyd find and use the bear trap that Kristi stepped on to catch one of the monsters?
I doubt that will do anything. They can get shot by guns and it doesn’t do nothing
I think it’s more scary that their smart
I think this show has had a reduced budget since season 2. The show just looks cheaper, and there's a lot less people than there used to be. Though I guess in story they could say they got killed by the monsters the past couple of years.
Show gets bigger, main actors get better contacts, more screen time & the stories are developed around characters we know. Poor townies! Poor monsters....literally! That's the way of the extras/background talent, & below-the-line actors!
Hasnt been years in the show
It all comes down to this: FROM is a science fiction tv show masquerading as a horror tv show (more accurately, it is a sci-fi horror show). Get ready FROMily for answers coming from quantum physics, general relativity, cosmology, theories of consciousness, higher dimensions, etc. I believe The Entity will eventually be revealed to be human.
It is a horror show, I don’t know what you mean.
It is a horror show, I don’t know what you mean.
@@jameswest9469it’s still science fiction because nobody knows how they got there and has no idea how to get out 😂😂😂 one more thing. How do the houses have electricity with wires hanging in the basement 😂😂. A tree portal is not normal physics 😂
@@watsonanthony8438you don't know what science fiction is. There are no elements of science fiction at least not yet
@@gaeouhgaeae I just point out science fiction. A tree that teleports
I agree, the mouse traps is unique
I would agree with the Diddy and his oily profilactic. But it's much bigger than that..... It the alubanaughty. Lol
Ngl I'm boyd in taking out the crows after they repeated what I said during the day without being around at all and after finding out that bird ran thru the window when they old lady pulled out the taro cards I'd immediately assume the birds are connected to the monsters
episodes like this I wish they would really start working together instead of being enemies towards each other because of the town and how they are stuck there.
nobody seems to think that these monsters are in one spot where all the electronics is in any other thing that they can get their hands on that they can use against them and I honestly think that there is somebody in their group that is already a monster that constantly leaves at night because how else would you sit here and say they get in some type of information
I think that's why the boy in white isn't "good", just seeming so to be able to do what the entity wants. When Victor buried the items of the town members, I feel this amped up the fears for the town- remember when Sara said her brother was afraid of cicadas? That was well after he died and the ten members buried him(assuming so)
I don't think the entity is capable of benevolence...especially over a long time as with victor - 46 years. I think its a "game" between the two - the boy v the entity, with rules only they know...that both must follow. The boy could also be trapped there as well and made to play this game, as him failing to save the ppl somehow feeds the entity.
The end of each cycle determines who wins...but the boy seems to want to end it. The entity is powerful because it has likely won most past rounds as it draws strength from the despair and hopelessness of the residents, and the sorrow of the boy in white when he fails to save them.
responses. Problem. Reaction. Solution. Kind of like we are now huh? Getting dragged back ONLY worked when in a vehicle. How could it happen while walking? It'd only happen if you didn't know where you're going in the real world. What would have happened if they were to have walked instead of driving. ALSO, they were only able to return to the ALT Dimension because they had no control of the vehicles- The ambulance was driven by strangers. Tab and Vic's pop had no bearing of direction.
How did they know Tabitha was returning to town for the ambush, it does slightly show some type of tethering, even them halting attack when randall had donna detain but was overwhelmed by the walkers, they halted attack. So to me there's a hive mind trait there and perhaps not to all seeing or limited, the walkers either knew Tabitha was returning or they was told somehow, the military troops is a hive mind to the commander and president
I think it has something to do with everyones individual fears manifesting in a way they can harm anyone
I think Tabitha was sent back to from at the moment she was because Boyd was going to capture one of the monsters. Notice how there has not been a single mention of Boyd's plan to capture a monster since Tabitha arrived, it feels too well timed for it not to have been the purpose to derail Tabitha from seeing the original bottle tree and to stop Boyd from capturing a monster.
I don't think it's ever been addressed why the monsters can't come out in the daytime, so I would like to see what happens to them in sunlight.
Man in yellow is the real threat probably pulling all the strings
Either him or the dog, which the dog can also take the shape of a human. The dog must go!
Who is the man in yellow please?
I feel like what happened to Dale will reinforce Boyd's leadership again, so maybe the Big Bad didn't count on that happening? If they don't listen to Boyd, see what might happen? That kind of thing.
What if we instead interpret the title of the show itself in the reflection of a philosophical concept. Where does happiness come FROM? a reflection from how bad things could be? In order to appreciate life, in order to feel alive, there has to be something that is overcome. It is why no matter how much anyone has in life, everyone always has something to bitch about. We spend so much time focusing on how horrible things are when they are amazing. However there is something beautiful about how these people have found happiness, joy, and hope even in a place that twists everything good against you.
also: It seems (potentially) that a lot of the characters came here at times in their lives where they didnt know how they could continue on but were trying to find a way to have hope and purpose. (Losing a child and trying to keep living, struggling with extreme addiction and finally getting help to move on, having terminal illness to a level where you carry around drugs to kill yourself yet trying to travel and find purpose, A veteran struggling with ptsd who no longer has his work to distract him trying to just be a father(boyd). Now they are all in a place where everything forces you to struggle. The constant change means you always have a purpose, there is always something to learn, or fight, or discover. This town has given them all purpose.
I just hope this show has a good ending.
I think I’ll go back to season one because it all connects
Monsters trying to break Boyd rather than kill him is like a drawn out version of a Bond Villain waxing poetic instead of just killing 007. I love the show though. I also noticed something at the beginning of this video when you showed Smiley dying. Was he crying I think I see some tears? Did his humanity come back to him right before he died?
Now I want to know who made those talisman did the entity made it or other people and why was it hidden
Did the entity put those talisman there like power ups in a Mario game
Victor's father is the one who should be able to explain why his wife wrote the numbers
It’s the ravens going back telling the entity
This show is from the makers of Lost, I believe there is not one entity but a good vs evil again, like the boy in white who seems to guide them and keep them safe in some scenes, and then the darker force that is trying to break them.
I dont think randall being left is going to have that big of an effect on boyds leadership. He saved 3 1/2 people. I say 1/2 cause the cop took a life
cool breakdown
Genuinely ✨
Btw I think I’ve placed your accent. South Africa. Xhosa.
Like how can demons who are crazily terrifying still be master strategist like why why…….
You did good job. It makes perfect sense. This video is a gem.
I got to ask, how was the zombie old lady able to pick up the talisman? If it effects the enclosed space then doesn't the physical body , the structure itself on which the formula of talisman is inscribed protected?
Yes it held the talisman through the string attached but still, Why?
What if?...Randol was an uber dats delivery for Fatima?? They tore him up but didn't kill him. Made sure there was enough blood and delivered him to colony house at the front door. Now think of Fatima like a newly turned vampire, she cannot resist and the monsters knew so the whole plan was to tempt her. But instead someone else got shot and died so instead of being tempted infront of everyone she actually got to be alone with the dead body while everyone focused on Randol.
Also I don't think Tabitha leaving the town was the towns doing. I think that was all the boy in whites plan. I think she was indeed sent to get Victor's dad and to find out what she did. But knowing the town would eventually bring her back the first chance it got, the boy in white already knew she would have come back with him.
The trap was indeed a trap but think of the town as a well secured prison...the moment u see the tree/enter the gates, it already knows ur back.
I loved your points and thoughts, they were well put together. But that damn giggle, though... It makes it so much harder to watch, at least for me. But keep up the good work :)
He scaled the laugh back A LOT in this video. I'm so glad because I love watching his videos, but couldn't tolerate the laugh.
Thank you Mr. UA-camr for toning that down. Sorry I don't remember your name. I legit have a brain injury and memory issues from that.
dale die because he didnt use the bottle tree, they are connected to safe location like light house instead he jump on random tree unknowing location
Ok, so if they want to break Boyd, why the just cant simply kill him ?
