I really want to see a Freddy vs Jason 2 one day...maybe Freddy vs Jason vs Ash vs Jigsaw vs Cloverfied vs Uwe Boll

When I saw Freddy vs. Jason I laughed myself crazy. It was hilarious! I did enjoy the movie.

I would like to see the next installment to be like Freddy vs. Jason vs. Michael Myers!

Better yet, Freddy vs. Aliens, or even Predator

Hahahaha

Here's a shot I snapped of Freddy in the trailer.

Not sure what I think. Kind of looks like the potato-lookin mask on Scarecrow (or the Lion from Wizard of Oz lol). And he talks like The Joker. "This won't hurt. One. Little. BIT." I was just waiting on a laugh...

I believe they went with a "realistically" burnt look for this go-round. So Freddy will look like his skin was literally burned off and stuff.

And I'm sorry, but everytime I see you know who now, all I can picture is him as a kid in the Bad News Bears movies lol UGH!

vs Alien vs Predator vs Robocop vs Chucky vs Optimus Prime vs Undertaker vs CM Punk

:p

I'm with those who think this remake is gonna suck. Quite unrelated to this thread, but I just watched a flick called "Trickr Treat" and it was beyond stupid.. in the ending sequence they had this tiny pumpkin alien killer .. I hadn't laughed harder before. I kinda wanted to fill that thing in a bag and slam it across the room like Austin Powers does to Mini Me in "Goldmember" :rofl:

Only thing I'm not liking about it is the voice, but we've only heard a small part of it soo far.

What's really bugging me is the people complaining about the make-up. They've obviously never seen what a real burn victim looks like or they'd know how good a job they did with just these little previews we're seeing. None of the others were really based on how a real burn victim looks. Hell, the original Freddy make-up design was based off what the guy came up with on a pepperoni pizza he was eating. They studied images of burn victims, but didn't really use a whole lot of that. Just little pieces here and there.

I also doubt there will ever be a Freddy Vs. Jason 2. Can't believe people are still waiting for that. Robert Englund has already said he's done with playing Freddy because he feels he's geting too old to play him.

This starts a whole new franchise of films, making a Freddy Vs. Jason 2 right now using Englund and continuing the storyline from the first wouldn't make sense.

Freddy is possessed with demons. He isn't supposed to look like the average burn victim....

I don't think people are concerned if the burns look real. Especially not when they are watching a movie about someone who kills people in their dreams. I want Freddy to have that frightening evil look, not something that looks like a combination of Chunk from Goonies and silly putty.

Now let's not bring Demon Freddy from A New Nightmare into this....

Freddy accepted the "dream demons" when he was being burned to death. Forgot what movie showed that, but don't think it was New Nightmare.

Yes I know that micwa. I was joking because the A New Nightmare Freddy really WAS a demon, not just a demon-infested-like Freddy from the other movies. One could say, it really wasn't "our" Freddy so to speak, even though he was :D

And he told his daughter about the dream demons in Nightmare 6 I'm pretty sure. It was towards the end, before he blew up lol

Trick'R'Treat is the best Halloween film ever made...in my eyes of course, it was perfect!

Yeah it confused quite a few people, which is the main reason most people don't like it I suppose. Still, plent of people (myself included) consider A New Nightmare to be the best Nightmare movie besides the original (though I think ANN is better than ANoES).

Oh I liked the New Nightmare. It was just really confusing... Oh.. there's the actress playing Nancy, and Robert. Oh, hello Wes Cravern. It was different, that's what I liked.

Wes Cravern sure didn't have anything nice to say about this movie.

No he's not

If you're referring to Freddy's Dead, those demons just gave him the power to control the dream world. They didn't possess him. If you're referring to New Nightmare, that wasn't the Freddy of the films. That was a demon that took on the role of Freddy and brought him from the film world into reality. That was all explained by Wes Craven in the film.

He was never actually a true demon of hell because he's constantly stuck in the dream world. That's all he has power over unless he's brought out and taken out of Springwood like he tried in Freddy's Dead.

About this movie as in, this remake or A New Nightmare? lol now I'm confused

As in this remake. I read his remarks about it somewhere.

NightmarE thanks for explaining, it's been a while since I seen 1-6, but I remembered something about demons. Figured it was via being possessed.

I just saw the Nightmare On Elm Street Trailer...I am sorry but, even though the guy looks alright, NO ONE will ever play Freddy Krueger like Robert Englund did....NO ONE. He was and WILL ALWAYS BE Freddy Krueger in my book.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Jaybonaut · Posted

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By cleverclogs · Posted

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
