The main fuck up was hiring Ronny Yu to direct, a man who had never seen any of the previous films before.

This is a movie that was over a decade in the storyboard process, and THIS is the best they could do? Busta Rhymes in Halloween: Resurrection, I'm looking at you! And the lead actress was even worse. Never stick a rapper or singer in your horror movie. But with stupid scenes, such as the worm not Jason Mewes saw when high, or Freddy bouncing Jason off the pipes, complete with pinball sound effects, this movie was closer to Freddy's Dead, the absolute worst film in the series. If they had kept the same scary Freddy that Wes Craven had created in the original and New Nightmare, or even a hybrid of the two, this movie could have been great. Honestly, Freddy vs Jason is the best vs film I've seen. I mean, how many vs films do people even really like ? Alien vs Predator got a tonne of hate (I thought it was decent), many didn't like Batman vs Superman. But it could have been a hell of a lot worse. Could it have been better ? Hypothetically yes, every film could be. We should be thankful we even got this film and that it was actually good. Pinhead has the lament configuration and his other cenobites.he isn't one for 'fighting', he'd use his chains and that would be it.Freddy vs Michael could maybe have worked but not as well as Jason did, Jason is a juggernaut undead zombie and had been for multiple sequels by this point, he was the perfect foil to throw down, to take damage and just keep on trucking. Michael doesn't talk, Jason doesn't so they'd be a bit too similar.Leatherface is out in Texas with his family (he comes with 'baggage'/other characters) and is the 'weakest' and most grounded/real of them. Freddy vs Jason were honestly the best characters for it.

I'm just really glad we got one slasher showdown. People always debated in the comments who'd win, many wanted a sequel with tonnes of other horror characters in it.they were fun times man. There were tonnes of videos on youtube back in the day, Freddy vs Jason vs Michael vs Leatherface. It now has that nostalgia factor for me, it'll always be a favorite. I'm in my mid 20s and this film is one of my teenage faves, I watched it all the time when I was 13-15. Kane has a big fanbase and is many peoples favorite Jason, many feel he earned the right to play Jason.many feel Kane is the definite Jason.įor me I love it.

Freddy vs Jason at times veers on professional wrestling but I understand why they did it. It being a bit of an Action-Horror fun film as opposed to a dead serious scary one.Both franchises are all over the place with regards to continuity so I don't particularly begrudge it that. He overcame it as such, but it's still there in his memory for Freddy to exploit. I never had an issue as there are subconscious fears, I can see Jason being afraid of water as a child, getting over it.but it still being deep within his mind.

Continuity, the big one here is Jason being afraid of water.Some people mention the poor characterization of the teens, poor acting and so on.but if we're being honest most of the ANOES/F13 films are no better in that regard.This film reeks of the early 2000s, some people prefer the 80s aesthetic/vibe and dislike it due to it's more modern aesthetic. ANOES & F13 are very much '80s franchises'.In my opinion the reasons not everyone is fond of it are
