Well here we go again. Halloween weekend is over and Saw has once again sliced and diced the competition making an estimated $32.1 million. Even weeks before Saw IV came out, it had already been announced that Saw V was on it's way.

So what are your, serious, theories about Saw V?

Please remember to keep any spoilers of the film as we get closer to release date and information starts being released in spoiler tags. Anything that happened in the previous Saw films is fair game however.

EDIT: So here's what we know so far: The writers of Saw IV, Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, will be writing Saw V and Saw VI. David Hackl, the production designer for Saw II, Saw III and Saw IV and second unit director for Saw III and Saw IV has officially been attached to direct both Saw V and Saw VI. Costas Mandylor (Detective Hoffman) has signed up for the next two installments in the horror franchise along with main character; Jigsaw, portrayed by Tobin Bell.

Well it is obvious that it will take place during the time between the end of III/IV and when Jigsaw's body is found and brought to the coroner for autopsy.

I'm assuming we'll also get some background on why Hoffman is carrying on Jigsaw's work; perhaps we'll see what "test" he had to undergo, much like what happened with Amanda.

Other than that, I really have no clue.

I must say, I don't like Hoffman much for the part. After having John Kramer, this big muscular guy that looks like he could be in Rambo just doesn't fit. But I might get used to him more in Saw V.

I know what you mean. I think our problem, because I'm like you on that, is that we've been able to sympathize with an old dying man. We can sympathize with him for many different reasons and we probably don't all agree on the same ones, but we still see his side. Now we've got Hoffman, this big muscular guy to which we have no background information on. At least in the first Saw we understood, to an extent, why John was Jigsaw. We knew about his cancer upfront and we understood in Saw II why Amanda was taking over, but now we've got nothing, just a year to wait before Saw V comes out.

While I'm with you on Hoffman, I'm still intrigued and very excited to find out why Hoffman and how did he originally meet John to begin with. Was he already working for (or with) John when Rigg was talking with the little girl who was abused by her father? How far back does the relationship go?

Many questions left to answer... Saw V should definitely be good.

We hope. :) Just please let them answer questions. I want to KNOW what was in that envelope!!

I don't think Amanda is guilty as we all are believed to think. She's not the one who "killed" Kerry, and for all we know not Troy either. But she DID shoot Lynn and kill Adam. She just had too much emotion. I hope she's back on for V (new flashbacks of course).

Or did Amanda REALLY die?? Lol... joking. If she didn't, I'll be ****ed and happy.

Jigsaw vs. Predator vs Alien: Why Predators & Aliens Don't Appreciate Life :laugh:

Jigsaw vs Predalien ;)

John Kramer is now half man, half machine. He traps an alien in a deadly trap.

" Hello, I want to play a game. All your life you have been mating with humans and killing them. I don't call that reproduction. I call it : RAPE. You don't treat life with respect. Now, you will learn... "

I was kidding. This movie is dead since the 1st one. The rest is just a bad remake of a bad remake of a bad movie.

If it is dead then why do you keep watching the films, giving your money towards them? If didn't even like the first one, then why continue to watch them if they only got worse? I think you just enjoy complaining, or raining on other people's fun. That's all there is to it.

I seriously hope you (and everyone else) has seen Wes Craven's New Nightmare. That is the ONLY true sequel (well not really) to the original Nightmare on Elm Street - and its the best Freddy movie imo he did (he did partially write/produce part 3)

Now THAT is how you reinvent a long in the tooth franchise. Terrific movie it was. Hopefully Saw won't go that direction by the time they get to Saw 12 or something :|

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
