[Rappy Veteran]

What?? King Rappy never heard of Spiders or Boggy Creek? Damn, next you'll be telling us you've never seen Megashark vs Crocosaurus.

You disappoint me :cry: , you need to catch up on your film watching I think.

Film eight ought be composed entirely of flashback material derived from the other seven ;)

Slightly more seriously though, how about an original horror.

I'm just waiting for them to reboot It's a wonderful life.... :s

SAW I was awesome and pretty good plot. Just watched first three movies. still not interested in watching a remake though. Maybe they are inspired from The Amazing Spider Man.

I liked the series. It got a bit sketchy but I think they tied it up well at the end. saw 2 was my fave.

Saw ended when John died. After that, it's just like Final Destination XD

I'll be watching the remake, though but only after the reviews.

As said earlier - the ending of the original Saw is what helped make it so great. The scene when John stands up at the end can still give me goosebumps even seeing it for the 10th time. The music was perfect and that whole scene was just done perfectly. I'd prob end up seeing the remake but I'd go into it expecting very little.

I really enjoyed the whole Saw series and watched each one on opening day in the theaters, but I think it's really stupid if they remake the first one. The only thing they can really gain is disapproval of a lot of fans. There's no way it could be any better. But of course it's all about the money and since Saw was a huge cash cow, they probably won't go wrong on ticket sales. Sadly. :(

Haven't seen any of the previous SAW's but a lot of remakes these days are pretty poor.

Imagination and creativity is going down the drain in Hollywood.... It's all about remake, reboot, .... Nothing fresh anymore.

I'm getting tired of "re seeing" the same movies....

yeah my thoughts though I am interested to see if they do a new twist with it

Doing the same twist ruins the feeling that the original gave; but doing a new twist ruins the original film, especially if it is better than the original; however, doing any twist will be expected and therefore, the entire film is ruined.

And outside of adding a new character and/or taking away another character, what could they possibly do to make it better than the original? I can see it now: Adam is a cross dressing drag queen who enjoys dolls. One day, out on the street, turning tricks, he's attacked by a drugged out homophobe who tries to cut Adam with a cookie cutter in the shape of a jigsaw. The drug attack's name is Lawrence Gordon, who is a terminal cancer patience, being treated by a Dr. Amanda Young. Adam, who barely survives, kidnaps Gordon and Amanda for some revenge pleasure, but he ends up falling in love with Gordon...

@hurmoth are you sure your not writing the remake? ;)

[FlintyV]

I think most of the movie industry is the one in need of a reboot with some fresh ideas.

@hurmoth are you sure your not writing the remake? ;)

:p A friend told me I need to add in some fish and banana's. What do you think? Maybe even some pickles! :laugh:

No, each one was a continuation of the storyline. The torture may all be the same, but the films' storyline was pretty good, up until they ruined why John was doing what he did. It started off something noble, but then with the fourth film, they introduced a revenge plot, which ruined the storyline for me.

it was a joke :pinch:

anyway, these remakes are ridiculous. just stop already. stop supporting them. theyre terrible. and Saw is being remade after only 8 years? wtf?

Universal remade Hulk after only 5 years (2003, 2008), so this isn't new.

Haha, exactly the first thing I thought when I saw the topic. Just leave it alone.

[TruckWEB]

The problem lies with all the fools who are going to PAY to see remake. If people avoided paying to see remake, maybe Hollywood would understand that we don't want them anymore.
