I just re watched WKM, DAMIEN and WMW and I was over analysing characters, specifically the Colonel.
I realised that in multiple scenes, he gets really vulnerable (upset, in shock, etc.) but then he acts really defensive.
Example:
This is the scene where Damien walks in on the two pointing guns at eachother. William is shocked and kinda looks guilty, afraid in a way, but he quickly gets defensive.
Another example:
During this same scene, the Chef bonks William on the head. During this, William backs away, ducks down and, to me, looks intimidated, but he quickly acts defensive again.
Another example:
During the start of Chapter 4, Benjamin tells William to do the right thing, when he says this William looks absolutely shocked, gobsmacked, sad and possibly even afraid. But, after Benjamin finishes speaking, he quickly acts defensive again.
One more example:
When we wake up after the upside down scene, he actually acts shocked and sad when we're awake, but he quickly gets defensive again claiming that he didn't do it etc.
Personally, I feel like the Colonel is one who doesn't like to act all weak and vulnerable in front of others and instead in a room alone. This is most likely because he is a Colonel, an army man who is supposed to be intimidating and tough. This could also be because of the time WKM is set in, which is 1931 I believe, and I'm pretty sure that during those times, men were seen as tough and they never showed their feelings in front of others otherwise they were seen as weak.
I dunno if anyone has addressed this before but I decided to.

i headcanon that Actor's movies from his time of fame are basically lost media. like, some amount of people knows they existed, but since around WWII, no one has seen them.
and Actor's chilling, owning a copy of every one of his movies, owning copies on anything possible. he has the original tapes, he has them copied to vhs, to cds, digital etc. he's not gonna share tho, why would he? the plebs don't deserve to see his glory.

Something about the Markiplier cinematic universe I think needs to be talked about is the fact that literally 80% of the reason it's so compelling is because it doesn't take itself seriously at all. It's just a story that's an absurdly chaotic mess, and I mean that positively.
Who Killed Markplier is a tragedy at its core, a very well done example of, even if you try to do all the right things, sometimes you still fail, and there's no way to fix what's already been said and done.
'DAMIEN' has hauntingly beautiful scenery, it's an outsiders perspective of an altercation between two unreliable narrators that gives little context to its premise, immersing us in our place as a bystander.
All that being said, it's juxtaposed by;
-The man cast ending up in space with zero explanation.
-Two men getting into a fistfight in a movie theater parking lot in borad daylight in a violently slapstick manner.
-William telling the group he once got sucked into jumanji and nobody even questioning it.
-The viewers very existence being used to play up a series of visual gags with absolutely no context, (Pocket Sand, for example.)
-Darks tendency to pull a 'draw me like one of your French girls' while speaking to us in fucking riddles
-The stunt dummy being kept in after the editing phase
-Literally 90% of the shit Actor does despite being a revenge fueled monster, he wears crocs everywhere like c'mon
-HeeHoo
Honestly I think it's great because it allows you to play with the worldbulding extensively as there's debatably no concrete facts one way or another. I'm writing at the moment and using it to my advantage and will probably post more about that soon.
