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.

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By ZipZapRap · Posted

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.

      A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.

      Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
