"Why do I have these perverse desires to bang my own mother, and why am I always fighting the urge to take my own life? Perhaps I am crazy? No, for what madman would use cocaine as an antidepressant? No, it must be that incestuous desires and a death wish are part of the human psyche. It's totally not just me. Also, everything is penis."
~Sigmund Freud (paraphrased)
"I hate Sigmund Freud."

With apologies to Limp Bizkit and Donald Trump on second thought, I'll save my apologies for people who actually deserve them

3WSR is a very important literary work. A non-believer might observe that it is just a bizarre Thomas and Friends fan fiction with a convoluted plot about about wizards, but it is much more than that, as we shall see.
The concept of the Id, Ego, and Superego are very important parts of Sigmund Freud's philosophy. The concept is given physical form in the conflict of Man In Bright Turquoise, a godlike hero who creates physical realizations of these three sections of his psyche to discuss ideas with. Id is hot-headed and ruthless, acting without thought, and is the strongest of the three forces. Superego promotes inaction to an extreme, desiring for Bright Turquoise to retreat within himself and introspect. Ego is the quietest of the three, but is able to overpower Id on multiple occasions. This hidden strength means that Ego is clearly meant to be a personification of the innate desire of Man In Bright Turquoise to make sweet, sweet love to his mother. These characters provide a unique insight into the human condition. It's important to note that Man In Bright Turquoise also has a penis.
The Id, Ego, and Superego appear in other areas of 3WSR as well. Consider the Three Calamaties of SOM. Doruk is very clearly the Id, possessing childlike mannerisms and speech patterns. Vados is the Superego, remaining inactive as a largely advisory force despite her great power. Lady Aremur is the ego, the rational, conscious, mind. As the rational mind, she logically has a desire to sleep with her mother, however in this case a fascinating feminist inversion of the Oedipus Complex appears. Rather than a mother, the female Aremur lusts after the male father figure, Metalicana. This could be an invocation of Freud's hilariously sexist theories on masculinity versus femininity, wherein he claims women desire to have a penis of their own.
Vados and Bright Turquoise themselves form two parts of a Freudian Trio. But if Vados is the Superego and BT the Ego, who is the Id? The answer comes in the form of the mysterious Mr Marvelous, a classic Trickster archetype with clear phallocentric symbolism. It goes far beyond the obvious fact that as a man, he has a penis. MM watches the match from a tower, a traditional indicator that the author is compensating for something. MM uses his powers to force the other characters to fight to the death, invoking the famous quote by acclaimed philosopher Limp Bizkit: "Just give me somethin' to break, how 'bout your fuckin' face? I hope you know I pack a chain saw. (What?) A chain saw. (What?) A motherfucking chain saw. (What?)". As the above quote implies, Mister Marvelous is aware his mother likes men who are more hung then he, and forces lesser mortals to fight to allay his deep-seated penis insecurity.
The fight itself is ripe for psychoanalysis. Consider the fight between Man In Blue and Nifsara Hunt. Nifsara is a seductress, and also old enough to be Man In Blue's mom, raising obvious Oedipus connotations. Man In Blue, a normally peaceful man, kills Nifsara, unwilling to confront his perfectly normal Freudian incest desires. To quote philosopher Donald Trump: "I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautifulโI just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything." Obviously, by not raping and pillaging this woman, Man In Blue reveals a deep-seated perversion, that of "basic human decency". In the face of so much phallic symbolism, internalized homophobia won out. Phallic symbolism abounds in this scene. Man In Blue wields a sword, most phallic of all weapons. The arena they are fighting in is circular, the same shape as a penis. Humans themselves are vaguely penis-shaped, even possessing a "head". And of course, Man In Blue's penis penis penis penis penis penis peNIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS EVERYONE WANTS TO HAVE SEX WITH THEIR MOTHER, EVEN GAY KIDS WITH GAY DADS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS SIGMUND FREUD + AMALIA FREUD 4EVA PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS TOZ IS FUCKING HUNG LADIES AND GENTLEMEN PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS PENIS
Or maybe, Freud was wrong. Maybe humans aren't motivated by an Oedipus Complex. Maybe symbolism isn't real, and fiction should be taken at face value unless the author says otherwise. Maybe, just maybe, Freud was a lonely man with a tiny dick, a hot mom, and a sick mind, who successfully convinced generations of philosophers that his mental problems were the human condition. Maybe we should all stop worrying and go have fun.
