This post is huge ! Many theories, great ideas, I'm new around here but to read you guys coming up with stuff from everywhere is real fun, I'm sure Kojima loves to see people argue about the truth with an evil grin behind his computer, I mean just watch how he continuously challenges us with little details in disorienting trailers or even with P.T., anyway...

Ishmael right ?

Well I've seen this video on youtube from Pythonselkan, I'm sure some of you did as well, where he talks about a lot of stuff, but there are these two details that stroke me the most. The first one is when Big Boss wakes up at the hospital and the nurse came into the room, she walks towards him and we can read Ishmael from her lips when she talks to him. Meaning we're playing Ishmael, which gives credit to the hallucination theory, like the bandage guy being the subconscious of Ishmael, explaining why Sutherland voice both characters, but also meaning that we're maybe playing another character and not BB himself, someone believing that he is BB though. It would also explain why Hayter is missing from what we've seen so far.

The other detail is the shadow of BB. They emphasize that although the shadows are perfectly shaped, the shadows of BB's head seems bald or at least not matching his long hair. And it's the same thing for BB in Ground Zeroes. It proves nothing, all right, but it adds more to the confusion and I don't think that it's just that they forgot to shape it. It has to mean something somehow.
