Discussion on killing Pamu at the end and taking the first kill of the Boss

Regarding the point at the end of Grandma Gandalf (I personally think that Hui Chang has the sense of sight of Uncle Gan, so it is called that) 5 consecutive hits took the first kill of the BOSS Parker's mother: In a word, the mother who seems to be Parker is actually Parker Mapping in your own mind.
Children's shoes who have read it carefully will know that Parker has a split personality, half of himself and half of his mother. His own personality doesn't need to be explained too much. His mother's personality was formed from his childhood memories, and he mapped her into the inner world. The director uses two characters to present, but it is actually the same person.
In the film, Josh's soul teamed up with the psychic master and Gandalf to open up the wasteland in Parker's lair, from the world to a deeper world - Parker's memory. There they saw Parker's mother treating Parker as a child during her lifetime, and it can be inferred that in the days to come, Parker's split-person mother would also be like this, forcing herself to do all kinds of things she didn't want, including killing the bride.

So this can be divided: the protagonist Josh is the one who kills in the outer world, the one who controls Josh in the inner world is Parker, and the one who pushes Parker in the inner world is the mother in the inner world, and this mother is another personality of Parker, also It's a map of his memory.

The dual personality exists when one party persecutes the other. After Grandma Gandalf killed the persecuting Fang Parker's mother, the persecuted Fang Parker did not exist. To sum up, it seems that it was Parker's mother who killed him, but it was actually his other personality, which was a reflection of his memory of his mother.

Some people may ask, how did Parker explain that when he was a child? A: In the memory world, Parker as a child does not conflict with the Parker in the inner world. According to logic, the Parker in the inner world cannot appear in his memory, so the grown-up Parker does not appear in the memory world. At the end of the memory world, Parker's mother pointed Josh and his teammates back to the inner world, and launched a crusade against the source of the devil - Parker's mother personality. And why does Parker's mother point her finger? It can only be said that Parker noticed that someone had entered his memory territory and came to crusade him. It can’t be said that Parker, the BOSS, was so stupid that someone came to kill him and didn’t notice it, right? This is too much to say.


The above are my personal opinions. If a friend has said it before, maybe I was inspired by you, and I will give you a promotion here.
