I love F13 to death, so forgive me, for I am gonna go on a long rant.
The last few entries have not been good (except for FvJ). But a remake? Screw it. We've gone this far. I say just make another sequel and don't let it suck. I'm sick of Platinum Dunes and their damn remakes! Something original, please! Or atleast a sequel. They are the "P. Diddy" of horror. And Jonathan Liebesman... well... Darkness Falls! Thats all I need to say. The series really wasn't bad until New Line took over. I don't expect newer fans to share my opinion, but I think the older fans will atleast, might not agree, but somewhat understand my point of view. You can get the fear and darkness of the older ones without having to remake the whole damn thing. And if New Line wants a better movie... putting Darkness Falls directer and two producers who failed to make a better version of "The Amityville Bore" doesn't really give this remake much hope. I'm just tired of New Line trashing this series. I mean I love them all, because they are part of the series, but I must say that I still see the major flaws in, namely 8, 9 and especially 10. Space? Yea, thanks for that piece of crap, Todd Farmer and Jim Isaac. Who let those two doosies make a movie? That one was just plain insulting. In closing let me just say that if the best you can do (without Freddy) is JGTH, then maybe you should scrap the remake and sell the rights to someone who can.
