Cabin in the Woods: The Fool
I found Marty's character to be the most interesting. The two men referred to him as the "fool" of the group, and I couldn't think of a more appropriate description of him. The fool was used for entertainment purposes, but in order to successfully entertain his audience, he would have to have had a great deal of information on them. This information would then be turned on its head in order to poke fun. The fool is no longer the fool. He uses his knowledge in order to remove and place the title onto the audience. Marty is no different. While we laugh at some of the things his character says, there's no denying that he is the most insightful--partly because the drugs have made him immune to the chemicals altering the others behavior (weird). Marty tells Dana and the others that she shouldn't read the Latin out loud, and is the first to mention the idea of puppeteers (poptarts!) to Dana. All in all, I enjoyed his character. He possesses a deep understanding of the game, but is also hilarious.
