Answers:
1) Samara (the little girl) did make the tape, and did it with her psychic abilities!.

In the original Japanese film, Sadako's (the counterpart of Samara) mother had psychic abilities and during a public demonstration of these abilities she was accused of being a fraud!. Angered by this, Sadako killed the first man who accused her mother of being a fraud psychically (he fell to the ground with his face all strange, like the video victims)!.

Anna Morgan didn't have psychic abilities like Shizuko Yamamura (Sadako's mother) did, but both of the girls in both films had this ability!.

During the week in both versions of the film (Japanese and American), Asakawa/Rachel both experience strange dreams and visions placed in their minds by Sadako/Samara!.

Wikipedia gives a perfect description of how Samara used her psychic powers to transfer images to the video:

"Samara possesses the power of "thoughtography" - she can "burn" images into the mind of other living beings or on any recording media!. That's why after taking Samara home, Anna had a hard time concentrating and sleeping - her mind would be filled with gruesome images when her daughter was around!. Samara's presence made the horses on the Morgan's farm to go insane and die, which threw her mother into depression!. Samara also never slept and her adopted parents soon were terrified of her!. Finally Anna Morgan attempted to kill her by pulling a garbage bag over her head, hitting her with a brick and throwing her into a well!.

But Samara lived on for seven days, her spirit creating the cursed video tape after her death!. After anyone watches this tape their phone rings and Samara will answer and say "seven days"!. Seven days later the viewer will suffer a terrible death unless they have shown someone else the tape so that Samara still will be heard!."


2) Upon discovering Noah's body, she had realized that she had lived because she copied the video and had shown it to another - hence keeping the virus going!. She had copied the original tape found in the cabins and gave a copy to Noah (like he asked for)!. He did not copy it and show it to another, so he stopped the cycle continuing and was killed by Samara!. Because she realized this she knew that she had to get Aiden himself to make a copy and show it to another (hence what they are doing together at the end of the film)!. He says "What about who we show it to!?" which shows that Rachel had planned to get him to make a copy and then show it to someone else!.

Similarly, at the end of the Japanese version Asakawa phones her father asking him if he will "watch something" for her son Yoichi (who had viewed the tape like Aiden)!. She is driving when we hear her ask this and has a VCR and a tape on the front passenger seat!.

Copying the video and showing it to someone else is the only way to lift the curse of Sadako/Samara!.


3) Again, purely because Noah did not make a copy and show it to someone else in the 7 day period!. Aiden's time wasn't quite up (hence why we didn't see him die before), and Rachel had realized in this period that she had to help him make a copy of his own to show to someone else (hence lifting the curse)!. Rachel did not die because she had copied the tape and shown it to Noah!.


I LOVE the Ring :DWww@Enter-QA@Com

ok here goes lol!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

firstly throw the dreadful american remake in the bin and watch the japanese version as this is all explained in much better detail!.

1, The video was made using pure electrical "angry" energy caused by the girl (called sadako in the original version)being thrown in the well and left to spend thirty years slowly dying!.

2, i can't remember who rachel and aiden are in the original so its a difficult one to answer, but the characters in the original realised that if you showed the tape to someone within seven days the curse ignored you and passed on to that person!.

3, to find out what happens to the boy you have to watch the second one (its a trilogy, the third film goes back to the beginning and explains everything!!) but his fate is partly to do with showing the tape to other people!.

as yet the americans haven't made ring 0 (the third part) but i strongly suggest you watch the originals as they are far superior and get so far into your head you'll dream about sadako for weeks!.

if you liked the ring i suggest you watch the grudge and grudge 2, dark water,the eye,audition(very gruesome in places but a stunning film) (again watch the originals not the american remakes)

http://www!.tartanvideo!.com/searchresults!.!.!.

this link will take you to a site that will tell you all you need to know about this genre of films and give you a chance to read reviews and watch trailers from the originals!.

if the remakes scared you i suggest you hace clean underwear next to you and make sure you don't sleep alone after watching them!.

p!.s ring 2 shows you the full video from start to finish instead of the highlights shown in ring 1 (well the original does anyway lol)Www@Enter-QA@Com

1!. The girl could burn things using her mind, she burned the freaky images onto the reel using her mind!.
2!. Racheal and Aiden were making a copy of the tape, so they could make someone else watch it!.
3!. The guy died because he never made a copy of the tape AND he never showed it to anyone else!. The ring, refers to the fact that the little girl was stuck in a well and also to the fact that it was a neverending cycle!. Thats why the movie ends with aiden asking racheal what will happen to the person they show the tape to!.!.!. duh duh DUH !!Www@Enter-QA@Com

I watched that movie too long ago but I remember 2 and 3!. For the first answer, I was under the impression that Samara's mom made the video, but I could be wrong!.

Rachael and Aiden were making a copy of the video!.

And the reason why they didn't die is that same reason!. Because the scary girl wanted them to make copies of the video!. The guy didn't make a copy so he died!. Aiden was making a copy just in time!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The girl made the video!. If you recall when the psychiatrist was talking to her he asked her how she made the pictures and she said 'i just see them and then they're there'!.!.!.!.same with the video one can conclude!.
Not sure what Rachel and Aiden were doing at the end of the film because I can't remember what the last scene was!.
The bloke died cos he didn't make a copy!. Rachel says 'she just wants to be heard'!.!.!.so she is 'heard' by lots of people seeing her vid!. Since he didn't help her be 'heard' by not making a copy she nobbled him!
By the way, when the first girl dies it's really cool to slow motion her death and see her face go all wrinkly and distorted!Www@Enter-QA@Com

It's been a while since i saw that movie, so bear with me

1) i think the girl's mom made the video
2) making a copy of the movie
3) because the only way you don't die after seeing the video is if you make a copy of it!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

1) the scary girl did, i think she did it with her mind!?
2) they had the kid copy the video, so that he wouldnt die
3) he didnt copy the video

p!.s!.: to the people all the girl wanted was to be heardWww@Enter-QA@Com

samara made the tape(like she made the strange photos with the xrays)

rachel and aiden where recording another tape cause that's how you stop her from killing you

and the "bloke" died cause he didn't make another tapeWww@Enter-QA@Com

1 No idea who made the video
2 making a copy of the tape
3 if you make a copy of the tape you get spared - samara wanted her story heardWww@Enter-QA@Com

I can answer the third one!.

If you show the video to someone else, you get spared!.

No idea about 1!. and I don't remember the ending for 2!. :PWww@Enter-QA@Com

she didnt die cos she reproduced the video and passed it on, so ur exempt from dying then lolWww@Enter-QA@Com
