Well, nine months is a long time, just hope we don't have to wait more than a couple months for the teaser trailer. It'd be cool to see some cast photos in the meantime though. Hopefully, after production is wrapped, you guys will start on a "Friday" sequel. Poster looks awsome by the way! Keep up the good work.

Brad it is cool we know you tried to get it for us, but I also understand and yes I a sure if I saw a teaser right now it would make it that much harder to wait for the movie.

FRIDAY THE 13TH SEQUEL, VERY IMPORTANT TO US..lol...PLEASE, MAKE IT HAPPEN. Could you guy's (now this is just me beging..lol..) hover around the idea of a possible "Christine" or "Cujo" remake, just asking..lol..or if you plan on coming up with your own idea, make sure it's scary as f***..lol.

"or if you plan on coming up with your own idea, make sure it's scary as f***" That'll be the day.

would have loved to see the teaser but hey i guess it is understandable 9 months is a good bit off and if the teaser was released now the anticipation for the movie would be too much to handle, the poster and first image of freddy already have me very excited about this movie. Can't wait for more developments and in the meantime hopefully we can look forward to the first word on a sequel to Friday the 13th!!!Keep up the good work guys!

I like that we have something to look forward to. It brings back memories of waiting for christmas when I was a kid. It can't come soon enough. Bits and pieces slowly revealed over the coming months that are sure to make us chomp at the bit with anticipation is part of the fun. Looking forward to the slow boil of Freddy frenzy.

You make some good points. Even though i want to see it, I understand business wise why its a bad idea to release the teaser now... but from a fans point of view it sucks...

oh i had a rant before and now i understand, your right, thanks for going and representing the fans to WB, it is a longtimebefore the film is released.Im just so eager to see the movie. Oh and I have loved every movie you have released, i had never heard of the Hitcher and saw the remake so went and saw the originals, nor had i seen the original texas movies... You all do a good job... I LOVE REMAKES bring it to another generation woohooo

Great idea to wait! Looks Badass but, i think it's better to wait til its near being released i think we need a Friday the 13th part 2 also in 2010 and a part 3D in 2011. Everyone i know agrees. Jason Voorhees For EVER!!

i agree Friday the 13th part 2 should be ur next thing id love to see Jason in the snow a fan boys dream lol

) Months is a really long time but I think we will rewarded for the wait :-)

9 Months is a really long time but I think we will rewarded for the wait :-)

oh almost forgot to add, this time if you come up with an idea for a horror movie, none of this 14A junk, we want 18A..lol.

www.nightmareonelmstreet.com...website to this movie

had to pay CLOSE attention to the bottom of the poster to get that one..lol.

i saw that "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (2003) is coming to Blu-ray. I was just wondering when "Texas Chainsaw: The Beginning" & "The Amityville Horror" will follow.

You mention looking for your next project... can you please tell us what has happened to THE BIRDS remake!!??

I can understand the decision not to release it, but as a fan I am incredibly disappointed to say the least.

I know you've had some problems with your remake of The Birds, but, frankly, that is the project I would like to see you tackle next. And if not after A Nightmare on Elm Street, then sometime in the future. As for possible next projects, I have already suggested to you a remake of Basket Case, but I have to say that I would like to see your take on Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow; not a remake of any past version, but an orginal film.

It'll hit when it hits. In the meantime, I have to agree with the above, I'd love to see a sequel to Friday the 13th.

Very good point about the agony of seeing the trailer and then having to wait nine months for the film. Didn't really think about that. Thank you for saving the frustration. I've waited this long since hearing of the remake being done. Another few months isn't going to kill me.

I think a small dose of this movie every few months would be a good Idea. To us hardcore fans out there this movie is as big of deal as Tom Cruise finding out his religion is bullshit.

I am a walking ad for this movie I have already been talking about it since the greenlight on it. The pics were a huge let down because it's in the dark and then the hype on the surprise at comic con which was the teaser. Every fan no matter what will be in that theater in April. This movie will destroy all box office records. So what the hell leak the darn teaser.

i understand, BUT as you mentioned, warner bros. DID make things really swell for everyone at Comic Con, but to only give us whom have jobs and other things restricting us from going to san diego a (sorry) lame picture of freddy in shadows and all this shit, its just really hard to swallow. warner bros. should realize that the same job that i work at that hindered me from attending Comic con is the same job thats paycheck plus millions of other pay checks will earn them a top spot in the Box office in april and spawn them at least 2 sequels. so us hard working fans can't get a break? anything special for us? no. not that im saying its the people at PD fault for any of this, but just cant help but notice the overwhelming gratuity others recieve and the mear lick and promise the rest of us get. I dont think myself and other fans want a full on trailer just yet, but for fucks sake through us a decent bone.

I agree with you all the way (moondogmatinee) I hope you guys over at Platinum Dunes get started on the next Friday the 13th film. I personally would love to see another Texas Chainsaw Massacre, any chance on that one???

im just generally glad tht now filming is over the fans are getting kept in the loop well done brad on keeping us informed about whats happening. as for the teaser its understandable to w8 a little longer. cant wait to see it

whether it comes out tomorrow or 5 months from now, I look forward to seeing it. Nice to know also that the body bag scene made it into the reboot; that was one of the scariest moments of the original!

I heard a lot of the "NOES" scrip changed from that early "leaked" draft, and that it under went a ton of rewrites, and took a lot of the bad stuff out which is great. But does anyone know if they took out the redherring plot point having to do with Freddy supposedly being an innocent victim, only to be revealed at the end as the evil bastard we all already knew he was, I sure hope they did cause if that's still in there then that might be a problem. If Brad could clear that up, I'd really appreciate it.

I agree with Keepin it Reel about the "innocent victim" sublot. I seriously doubt that it has been removed though because it is the driving force behind the climax.

I have to admit the sound of an ELM STREET remake was exciting. So was the thought of a FRIDAY The 13th remake. You mentioned in a previous post that your movies make good money and you feel you make good movies. BULLSHIT! Your movies are shit, you just have a real good marketing team. F13 was NOT a success by a long shot. One weekend it did well, then NOTHING. I understand it is just F13 not really a blockbuster that would spend 4 or 5 months at #1 but DAMN, the results for the weeks following the opening week are pathetic. Good marketing though. You were able to get the people to go see it opening weekend, than what? The movie was really weak, that's what. I was at the midnight screening with my wife opening weekend because we were excited by the idea of seeing Jason on the big screen (something we both missed out on because we were too young in the 80's) and we left the theatre feeling ripped off. But your marketing team did it's job and got some of my money for you. The Unborn was the same story,ripped off and that is why I will NOT go to a platinum dunes movie anymore. Maybe you should invest more money on the movies themselves and less on advertising so you can have a decent product. Also I want to know what happened to the extra 20 minutes and completely different film you promised for the unrated version of F13? You, my friend, are a liar for breaking your promise. So I only believe MAYBE 9% of the crap that you say now. Fuck you and your pathetic attempt to save face on your previous blog entry. Turned down writers? Bull shit. Scapegoat, made up defense is the truth. FUCK YOU BRAD FULLER.

Wow, I thought I was the biggest Platinum Douche hater here! I guess what I hate the most out of their films would be the absolute mediocrity of the stories. All of their films look good, and have even had some amazing moments, but their work just seems lazy and patronizing to the fans of the originals. I love a good remake. Look at Snyder's Dawn of the Dead. The only thing the film retained was the concept of people holed up in a shopping mall trying to survive a zombie horde. The rest of the film was totally original. Why doesn't Platinum Douche try and do something like that? My guess is because they know they have a formula that works, and they feel that to stray from it would yield an unexpected result. I can understand why they do this, but I hate it nonetheless. I'm particularly pissed at this production for reasons that I've stated before. My only hope for this is that Jackie Earl Haley, and Samuel Bayer can overcome a really bad script, and the track record of PD, but the deck is pretty stacked against them.

Wow... calm down L7square. No need to get your panties all up in a bunch. You really have to understand the nature of horror films such as these. They target a specific market and typically are under-performers at the box office compared to more mass-appeal films (Dark Knight, Iron Man, etc). Look at a bunch of these recent Horror films: The Haunting in Connecticut - $55,325,526 U.S. total, Drag Me To Hell - $41,703,805 U.S. total, The Unborn - $42,638,165 U.S. total, Mirrors - $30,691,439 U.S. total, Saw V - $56,729,973 U.S. total, The Strangers - $52,534,295 U.S. total, The Ruins - $17,427,926 U.S. total, Quarantine - $31,691,811 U.S. total, Friday the 13th - $64,997,188 U.S. total. Got the point? Friday the 13th did better than ALL of these horror films. Can you name another horror film that did better at the box office than Friday the 13th???

"Can you name another horror film that did better at the box office than Friday the 13th???" Freddy Vs. Jason, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Scream, Scream 2, Scream 3, Saw, Saw II, Saw III, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), The Blair Witch Project, The Ring, The Ring 2, The Others, The Grudge, 1408, The Amityville Horror, The Village, Signs, The Sixth Sense, Sleepy Hollow, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Interview With a Vampire, and What Lies Beneath. Also, If you were to adjust them by inflation most of the original films in the Halloween, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street franchises would beat the Friday remake handily.

I should have specified... I was referring to last year's Horror films. I didn't mean to imply that it was the biggest horror film ever. I was merely comparing it to the other horror films released in 2008.

In regards to the inevidable "Friday the 13th", sequel, I said before that I hoped that Platinum Dunes would start production on that as soon as they put the finishing touches on "Elm Street", but now I think it would almost definately be better for them to wait and do something else in the meantime. The reason I say this is because I saw something on Mr. Fuller's twitter page where he mentioned that Marcus Nispel would not be able to return for the sequel do to scedueling conflicts with the new "Conan" film he's doing. So I would guess they're currently looking at other options. All I can say is, changing director's will no doubt change the look, feel, and tone of the movie. When Jonathan Liebesman took over the reigns of "TCM:The Beggining" following behind Nispels great film, the entire look and feel changed. It wasn't really cohesive with the first one because they brought in new writer's, a new cinematagrapher, a new production designer, a new director, a new everything. You could easily tell that these to movies were directed by two completely different people, it was in no way a seamless transition between directors, and ultimately, the quality of the film suffered because of it, and it was a bit inferior to Nispel's. Not to mention th fact that bringing in completely different crews can fuck up continuity big time. Weve seen this happen with the X-men films when Ratner shit all over us, then Gavin Hood finished us off, and weve seen it with countless other franchises. I just don't want to see this happen with the new "Friday" series. It would be an awful shame to have started all over with the franchise, that was perfectly fine in the hands of Marcus Nispel(although I think he should have more creative control), only to have some other director come in and cause the quality to dwindle in the second installment. So all I can do is hope that PD waits for Nispel to finish up "Conan", so that he can do the next one. Fox didn't wait for Bryan Singer to finish up Superman before hiring someone else, and look what we got. And to all the naysayer's that thought the "F13" reboot was bad, if they get some new guy, then it could get a lot worse. A la Joel Shumacher's "Batman Forever", and the other one of which I do not speak. Just throwing that out there for everyone.

I think what L7Square holds water to a certain extent. There is a trend among American Horror films these days involving the box office. All of the films tend to be really front-loaded and then they drop off steeply in their second week. Friday the 13 was the worst offender yet, dropping a abysmal 80.4% in it's second weekend. The other Platinum Dunes films: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (48.5%), The Amityville Horror (41.7%), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (59.6%), The Hitcher (53.5%), The Unborn (52.8%). Those numbers tell us one thing. As the quality of Platinum Dunes films has steadily declined, the second weekends have proved that mainstream audiences know when a film is a stinker. Platinum Dunes really knows how to market a film; especially when they have a highly recognizable iconic figure they're dealing with. They keep their budgets low, so they will remain profitable until even the kids who've fallen for the bad films realize that they're being exploited.

man you guys are vicious. i have to call this L7 square guy out though. buddy, there is no reason to get NEARLY as testy about this as you are. if you feel slighted by brad fuller than you must think he ownes runs and operates not ONLY platinum dunes, but also New Line, Paramount, and so on and so forth. Friend, he's just a producer. dont waste your time and energy cutting down one man for the "sins" of many, i mean thats just childish. if you dont like the movies that he has produced, dont watch them, dont worry about them, dont even read any news on them cause what good is it going to do you? im sorry you and your wife felt slighted by Friday the 13th, truth is I did to, but is that Brad's fault? fuck no! for me it's who ever had the brains to allow the voorhees residence And the 20 year-gone camp crystal lake to have electricity that still works. whose paying that bill? took me straight out of the movie. but what im saying is for one who are you to go making such bold statements about this guy and 2 why do you even bother? Im pissed that there will be no NOES trailer for a while, who isnt, but thats NOT Brad's fault. cut the guy some slack, if you have issues, blame the studios and the writters, producers actually have less to do with films than the former do.

Keepin it Reel, I agree with you a lot. I will be willing to lay off of the Platinum Dunes supporters if you are willing to not insult me. I'd like to say that I totally agree with you about Nispel. I really liked the TCM remake, and a big reason for my liking it was because of the look and feel of the film. I enjoyed Nispel's visuals in Friday the 13th, even though I thought the film was terrible in other respects. I just don't think we can count on him coming back to work on any future Platinum Dunes films because he's moved on to bigger productions. Since he's doing Conan, he will be given more control, and a higher paycheck. Platinum Douche makes films that are way more high profile than the directors they get to helm them. You can bet that they asked Nispel to direct ANOES and he decided to move on to bigger and better things.

Hey moondogmatinee... maybe this will help clear some stuff up. Jason has electricity because of a generator. This is no power bill. Apparently you missed the part where the guy operating the wood chipper said someone has been stealing his gasoline. Jason's been stealing it to run the generator at the camp to provide the electricity there. Makes sense to me.... I'd do the same thing if I were him. (Though that would suck too...)

Hanging to see the footage but I totally think you have made a good call by holding out. I don't know what to expect from the final product... VERY EXCITED!!!

To all complaining about the darkness of the pic. Remember that was the greatness of the first Elm Street movie. Freddy kept to the shadows and we were left to imagine what the face looked like, even though we got a peak now and then. There's something more dark and sinister about not seeing the whole thing. You're not sure how disfigured and terrifying the monster is. In my opinion that was the greatness of the first movie. Freddy was dark, mysterious, lurking in the shadows, waiting for his chance to pop out and slice you open like a Thanksgiving turkey. I really hope that is where PD has gone with this remake. To me, the darkness of the pics released leaves us open for the next few months to wonder how mutilated Freddy is going to look. Will make for some interesting discussions.

HAS ANYONE BEEN TO COMIC CON?!! CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL US WHAT THE HELL WAS IN THE TOP SECRET TRAILER!!!?? I WOULD AT LEAST LIKE TO READ A DESCRIPTION OF WORD FOR WORD WHAT THEY SAW THERE!!!!!!! PLEASE ANYBODY.....

Fuck you L7square! Ha ha, not nice is it? Difference of opinions is one thing, but flat out insulting someone is not on. God, even EggMan only uses the term "Douche". I get that us "horror" fans are a passionate bunch. We love our scary flicks, but damn man, cut the harsh attacks ok.

i agree with "STAINDFAN", i would love to see another Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie, but i don't know which direction they would go with the story, because they've already covered the beginning and the ending of his story...what is there left to his story i wonder????

maybe for the F13 sequel they could show Jason's beginning. how badly he was rediculed at camp and then he drowns, then his mother goes nuts (i get they explain that in the movie, but it would be cool to see it..lol.) and then at the end of that sequel (beginning) they could finish the movie where the remake starts off (the counselor is running, then Mrs. Voorhees pops up and yeah..lol.) just a thought.

Brad Fuller should have to answer for the Friday DVD thing. He did clearly lie about that.

what Friday DVD thing?

Brad said in one of his blog entries, "We are finishing up on the Unrated DVD this week. That DVD will rock! We have a different cut of movie, that not only has more violence and sex, but it has an additional storyline that is totally different from the movie you will see in theaters. Its not like we just cut a few things differently, the DVD version will feel like a different movie." He made it sound like it was a Lord of the Rings style Extended cut, when it was just kinda lame.

zigy, they listed the description on bloody-disgusting. Take a look. It sounded like a pretty good description to me.

ok i get the generator thing now, NOT that it was explictly stated in the movie, but whatever. i mean, its unbelieve able as it is but for whatever that just took me out of the movie entirely every time. with that in mind ill have to watch it again. thanks knifegloves.com!

Audio sounds really cool,from the crowd's reaction looks like the teaser's editing is very effective Let's hope the movie goes straight to the darkest corner of freddy's soul. Turning Freddy into a "one-liners" icon was the worst part of all those shameful sequels Keep up the good work!

Christ, didn't we JUST go through this shit? Are some of you people blind or just completely retarded? Yes, haters are most certainly entitled your opinions however I feel the need to extend a big fuck you out to L7Square for coming out of nowhere and cussing out Brad. Dude, who the fuck are YOU? If you want to express your opinions here whether it be negative or not, why not do so respectfully? Why do you feel the need to come on here and start bullshit? Okay, so F-13 didn't live up to the hype...GET OVER IT. That does not, I repeat DOES NOT mean that NOES won't. They can learn from there mistakes and at least he comes on here and actually LISTENS to your opinions in order to make a better film which people seem to want to take advantage of by bitching him out. WTF?? Freddy is coming back, better and badder than ever! Just give it a fucking chance.

BTW- I wouldn't mind another TCM film either. In my opinion, The Beginning was Platinum Dunes at its best.

That's a good reason :o) But I can't wait to see it. I Hope we'll see this teaser one day. Marketing is marketing ;o)

i just hope that they use the iconic music from the original, then i'll be happy....Im glad we aren't seeing his face in the pics...infact im surprised we got anything...they could have not shown a damn thing of freddy and the curiousity factor would bring people in by the droves...I LOVE PLATINUM DUNES MOVIES...so im excited about this one...

and i also dont get why people come into this blog to just trash the company....if you dont like the films why spend all your time in here trashing the movies....i mean seriously...get a life. I work for WETA here in Wellington NZ and it surprises me the crap people talk who think they know the industry, the haters are probably huge obese dole bludgers who live in there mummys basement, lame

Some people will complain for complaining's sake. What amazes me is they will whine for months about it, but still be first in line to see it when it comes out, only so they can come back here and write about how much they hate it. Personally, I feel most of them deep down love it and don't want to admit it. I didn't see anything really to whine about with F13. At least Jason didn't slam someone face first into a tree and have a big ole smily face stuck in the tree afterwards like the seventh one. Plus the Texas Chainsaw Massacre freaked me out so much the first time I watched it I had to turn it off for a bit around the time Jessica B. ran to those old women's trailer. I haven't been that jumpy cause of a horror movie in a LONG time. All in all, the old adage is very true here. If you don't like it, don't watch it. Or at least leave some constructive critisim instead of just coming on here and whining.

Here Here Fwanger, i couldnt agree more....

uhhh, "FWANGER" not to be a pain in the ass but the smiley face in the tree thing is in #6, i'm sorry just had to do it..lol.

I think Jessica Biel should be in ALL Platinum Dunes movies. Hear that Brad? :) She is smokin' hot.

I wonder if PD will keep Freddy's iconic laugh? or is that a Robert Englund trait? It would be weird not to here that laugh in a new nightmare.

Jordana Brewster (the girl in "The Beginning") is hotter (don't let Jessica see this)..lol.

No it wasn't it was in SEVEN! I know it! Seven! I know because I went to blah blah and spoke with such and such a director who hated this movie and that movie and the other movie.... Nah, just kidding. Thanks for the correction. See, it was such a horrible part that I tried moving out of that movie into another. Seven was the telekinetic girl right? Yeah, no need to ruin that movie by sticking that garbage in there.

Jessica or Jordana?? That's a tough one. I think in the end I would go with Jessica. The way she wore that shirt was fuckin PERFECT.

What a coincidence. I would go in Jessica's end.

Well, it seems like we won't be hearing, or seeing anything new about "NOES" any time soon, so I thought I'd mention something completely off topic. I read an article earlier today on Variety.com reporting that Ridley Scott, I repeat RIDLEY FUCKING SCOTT ! is going to be directing a prequel to his original 1978 "Alien" film that should finally explain exactly where these fucking aliens came from, as well as the mysterious space jocky from the original. I don't know about anyone else, but if that's accurate, (And I'm 99% sure it is)then this would have to be some of the best movie news I've heard in recent years. That, coupled with Alex Rodriguez producing a predator sequel entitled "Predators" is call for celebration. I feel like one of the rebels at the end of "Return of the Jedi" when the evil empire (in this case the "Alien VS. Predator" series) finally comes to an end. Gone are the days of offensive PG-13 ratings, teenage predators, chestbursting 8 year-olds, continuity fuck ups, and Paul W.S Anderson. (What a joke of a director. I hate that guy, why is he even allowed to make movies ?) I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that Fox thought it was a good idea to make an "AVP" film in the first place. After the lack luster slapps to the face that were "Alien 3" & "Alien Ressurection", James Cameron and Ridley Scott were ready to do a fifth Alien film with Cameron at the helm, and Scott producing, in order to get the franchise out of the toilet.(Sounds like the greatest idea in the world to me) Cameron had already begun work on the story/script or whatever, and to make a long story short, when he presented it to Fox, they said "You know what, thanks but no thanks. We'd rather do an "Alien VS. Predator" film with Paul W.S Anderson at the helm, because we're a bunch of retarded monkeys."(That last line was meant solely for Fox exects, and if any other monkeys and/or mammals were offended by it, my deepest apologies) And boy was Cameron pissed, at least that's how the story goes. And I mean, when you're looking to ruin, and completely shit on two amazing/successful/beloved/classic franchises, who better than Paul Anderson right ? I just don't understand why it took two hugely unsuccessful, and loathed films for Fox to realise that was a monumental mistake. Anyways, I'm just glad they're finally turning things around. And to Warner Bros., show the damn "NOES" trailer already. We get it, the movie's still 9 month's away, but it's a teaser trailer, the whole purpose is to TEASE. And it'd probably be wise to raise awareness and anticipation pretty soon. Start off with the teaser, then some photos, then an official trailer, some more photos, the second theatrical trailer, then some T.V spots, and before you know it, it's April 30th. If anything, putting the teaser online now would only help your film, not hurt it. Especially since it gives away nothing. But that's just my two cents, cheers folks !

i agree that Alien 3 & 4 sucked big balls, i didn't like those two at all. My favorite Alien movie is "ALIENS" sweet movie (but i also like the original one, because it's the original..lol...if that makes any sense..lol). - To carry on the conversation i'm having with "FWANGER", F13 part 7 is the worst one of the series..lol. i mean c'mon telekinesis are you freakin' kidding me, i also didn't like part 8 because it took Jason out of his comfort zone (the woods). - (just making conversation with this one) i'm sorry to everyone out there who likes "HALLOWEEN 3" but that movie bites the big one, a Halloween movie without Micheal Myers is not a Halloween movie..lol

i agree with "KEEPIN IT REEL" the teaser trailer does not give anything away, just do it the same way they did the teaser for "SAW VI" and your good..lol.

I am completely stoked about Ridley coming back for an Alien film. I have always loved the original the best. I gotta admit though, I love the Alien 3 assembly cut. It is closest to what Fincher wanted the film to be, and I think it is better that Aliens. I've always found Cameron's film to be a bit overrated. Alien Resurrection sucked big time, and the AVP films were just God-awful. I can't believe no one has said how cool it is going to be to see Ridley get back to science fiction. I couldn't be more excited about this. As for Friday the 13 part 7, Dunes Fan, you are absolutely right. That is the worst of the Paramount Friday films. Jason Takes Manhatten is no prize either, but it does have a certain kitsch value. I do happen to love Halloween III. It just sucks that the film is part of the franchise though. I believe if the film had simply been released as Season of the Witch, it would get more respect. It's a creepy story that's done really well, and who doesn't love Tom Atkins?

Freddy Kruger is so fucking important to my childhood it's not even funny. This will be a shamefull cash in, just like every fucking other Platinum Dunes film, and it will suck. Heads are going to roll.

Don't you just love the freedom of expression? Opinions differ and will always. There are MANY who would agree and disagree with you. No heads will roll at all. If you don't like their films, don't see them or support them with your money. Let those who actually like their films do that. It's not really that complex.

What I don't understand is why people need to bash the people who are hating that this is being remade. We get it, some of you are hoping for the best, but some of us are expressing legitimate gripes. I know I have attacked other posters on here, and I am sorry for that, and will no longer do it. I love freedom of expression. I hope people feel free to comment on here no matter what their view is.

Well... you do have to admit that the bashing only comes from those who go over the top with their complaints about it being remade. I love Dodge Vipers.... but the later models were redesigned. I was disappointed that they were different than the old models. But guess what? I still have the old models to love and the new models can be loved by those that love them. Catch my point? I love the original NOES. Always have and always will. But it's being remade for a new generation. But that does NOTHING to the original The original stands on its own and the remake will have its own identity. I don't see what's wrong with remakes. The blob got remade. Godzilla got remade. King Kong got remade. Batman got remade. And on and on and on. Many remakes are successful... many are not. Give these guys the chance to make a good one. If you don't like their past work... you have reason to be suspicious. But NOTHING... absolutely nothing calls for comments like these: "Your movies are shit, you just have a real good marketing team." "Fuck you and your pathetic attempt to save face on your previous blog entry." "Congratulations, Platinum Dunes will always be remembered as the purveyor of crap." "You sycophants know that Brad Fuller is a flesh and blood human being right? I mean, you all seem to be in awe that a producer would actually blog and even read some of the comments made by us "common" folk! Let's see him come onto these boards and answer some question. The pussy will never do it. He knows that he'd be called out as the Platinum Douche that he is." "Platinum Dunes are talentless leaches." "Talentless fcks cant come up with their own ideas because they aren't creative or good filmmakers so they take good movies and remake them into something crappier because they cant understand the underlying concepts of horror or basically anything." Get the picture? With comments like these, those who are genuinely excited for the film have every reason to get upset. Those who are supportive of PD and this remake have been respectful to Brad and his crew and when these creeps come out of the woodwork to spew off nothing but hatred, insults, and vile and crass wordage, we will defend them in return. Yes... people should feel free to comment on here. But for crying out loud... can we at least keep it above a 6th grade name-calling level? I sure hope we're adults here... let's at least talk and act like it too.

It is good not to show the trailer yet - I mean, it is a bit far to April 2010. But a few photos would be nice.

Amen knifegloves.com...amen.

Yes, it is too early for a trailer, but bring on the pics!

No offense guys, but fuck that. I wanna see the damn trailer. Anyone who doesn't want to see the trailer yet, don't Youtube it. No one is forcing it down your throat, so no need to campaign for peolpe who want to see it not to be able to see it. Let the people who really want to see it see it, and everyone else who doesn't can feel free not to look it up. Kinda like marijhuana. Some people are against it, most are for it, but don't stop me from smokin it. Like it or not, it's gonna be legal one day, till then, people will smoke it illegally, but no one is forcing YOU to smoke it with them. Everybody wins.

I agree with keepin it reel. I want to see a trailer to quench my thirst a bit for the next 9 months. If you don't want to see it... don't watch it. But I do disagree with the weed usage. :)

Oh for crying out loud. Its the same on all forums. People are going to come on and rant and rave their points of views, then someone else will come on and leave 15 mile long posts about how you are wrong and they are right, and guess what? It won't amount to a hill of beans. The movie is coming out whether you like it or not, it will probably (more than likely) be number one in the box office opening weekend. A few months later it will come out on DVD, and then not long after it will pop up on television. Nothing you say or do here is going to change that. Talking about people the way you are doing is only making you look like a douchebag that has WAY to much time on his hands to be on here constantly complaining about a guy that cares enough about his job to even take time out to answer the questions of his fans. Do you see many other directors or producers doing that? Do you see them taking ideas from the fans straight from their blogs and implementing them into their films? Constructive criticism is accepted by PD and has been implemented in the past as Brad has said. But some are not happy even with that. They will still go on and on, and your right, it's their God given freedom to do so. And yes, some of us are excited about this. And Loki, yes, even some of us that have been fans of Freddy since day 1 are excited about the idea of this remake too. Even Robert Englund has expressed his desire to see it done as todays special effects blow those from 1983 out of the water. Anyway, since I'm rambling I'll close with this thought... If you truly don't like this movie or want it done, if you truly hate Platinum Dunes for doing what people have been doing since movies first started on the silver screen, then please, don't watch it. Continue to rant and rave to anyone that will listen to you, but don't watch it.

See, I can post incredibly long and rambling posts also. Oh, and Dunes fan, I kinda did like seven. But my personal favorite will always be F13 part two. Just for that poor guy in the wheelchair that gets a machete to the face and then falls down the flight of stairs in the rain. Awesome. :)

I love the first two Friday the 13th movies, I don't want to say all, so i'll say most of the other ones are garbage (i'm truely sorry to everyone who likes most of them). here are all of the Friday the 13th movies i like... Friday the 13th: 1,2,4,6,9 & the remake

knifegloves.com has hit the nail on the head regarding the so-called 'bashing' on here!.. i totally agree with what he said above!.. a little more self containment from certain people wouldnt go a miss!..

Wow, this forum is practically deserted. Hardly anyone has come on here in the last couple days, and the few that have (myself included), aren't even talking about the "NOES" reboot anymore. Sounds like the perfect time for Warner Bros. to release that teaser trailer and get everyone talking about the film again, or at least let us see some photo's, or new posts telling us something we don't already know. I know WB is timid to relese the trailer at the moment because they're afraid that once people see it, they will loose interest in the film between now and the films release being that April is such a long way off, but if they wait to long, people will loose interest anyway. Why not have a marketing campaign in which the fans can participate, like Warner Bros. did with "The Dark Knight" ? That way, the hype, and anticipation can build up to an exposive climax by opening weekend. You guys can give us clues and such, or alude to things without really giving anything away. Hell, it's not like people aren't intellegent enough to draw their own conclusions as to the plot. We're already doing that. We did that with "Dark Knight", and we all thought we knew exactly how the movie was gonna go, but were very pleasenty surprised when we were somewhat wrong, and the film exceded everyone's expectations, even if they were high to begin with. So at least maybe give us random photo's just to stir up the pot and get everyone talking and speculating. Even if all are conclusions are wrong, we won't know for certain until we see the movie for ourselves, pretty much ensureing all of us buying tickets. Either way, better to have people talking, than not talking at all, which kind of seems to be happeneing at the moment. Peace eveybody.

I agree... I find it odd that they say if they release the teaser, then it'll long be forgotten by the time the film comes out. Really? REALLY? So you're telling me that the studio plans on releasing only ONE trailer? Weird... normally films release a quick teaser far in advance to cause a big stir and get people drooling for more and then they release additional trailers over the course of post-production. I do agree though... only releasing two still photos isn't going to make a lot of discussion for a lot of time. But releasing a teaser, now those last much longer in terms of their effectiveness.

I'm hoping for a pic soon of a bloody cut up Freddy victim. Maybe after they take a little time to piece the film together we will get something substantial. I love the one sheet though and have it as the desktop background on my computer. Is it just me or does it look like he is smirking?

It seems like they have taken two photos of Freddy and spliced them together in the Poster. His right-hand side of the face seems serious but the left-hand side of his face does appear to have a smirk.

i thought that the 'one sheet' showed Freddy half smiling because maybe after being burnt his face wouldnt really be able to function properly?.. i'm not saying that's the case, i'm just guessing..

I am absolutly DISGUSTED! that this film has been remade. There is nothing wrong with the original! It may be dated in many ways but the idea of changing the actors and the whole film in genral is unbearable. The film may have a simular story but it wont be the same, Friday the 13th is an example little things in that, such as in the original, the girl puts on Jason's mother's jumper to make jason think she is his mother. In the new one it's a necklace which is seriousley annoying because what was the problem with the origianl idea?! If this new Nightmare on Elm Street comes out, it will annoy a LOT of people. I have always been a fan of those films, they are my all time favourite horror movie and if this is the "newest version" people are going to watch that and not respect the original for what it is.

Hate to break it to you man, but you're pretty late with your argument. People have beeen saying the exact same shit you just said for months on here, and even they have moved on. The movie has been remade, there is absolutly nothing you can do about it, so just move on. If you don't even want to give it a chance, then fine, don't see it. After all, this is America and no one is going to drag you kicking and screaming into the theater. I just don't understand why you would want to waste your time coming on here and ranting, if you have no plans of seeing the movie in the first place. And that comment you made about this new film ruining the old one because it's the "newest version" is just obsurd. The origional version will ALWAYS be there, and this film won't change that. Just like all those awful "Elm Street" sequels did not ruin the original. They may have ruined themselves, and the future continuity of that series, but not the first one. Wes Craven's film stands alone as it's own entity, dispite the inferier sequels, just like this new film will stand on it's own. Platinum Dunes is in no way erasing the original from existance, or from memory, nor are they trying to. They are simply giving their take on a classic character, and if it's not to your liking, you're free to go back and enjoy the origional. Same with "Halloween". I am, and always will be a loyal fan of Jon Carpenter's original film, and I did not like Rob Zombie's version because it lost the essense of Michael Myers, and just plain didn't measure up to the original, but it also did not ruin the original. I went into the theater open to the idea of a remake, and seeing what Rob Zombie would do with such a classic film, and yes, I was very dissapointed with the result, but I wasn't angry about it because the original will always be at home waiting for me. It was not forgotten by me, nor by anyone else in any way, shape, or form. The only time remakes ever make you forget the original is when they are substantially better, and if that is the case with this new "Nightmare" film then I'm all for it. If not, the old one will always be at Blockbuster. So no need for people to pop a blood vessel over this film, and keep in mind that none of us has even seen the trailer, which still wouldn't be enough to desern the quality of this film, so at this point, all rants and judgements are premature. Peace.

I may have said too early for a trailer, but would love to see a footage at least. And @ keepin It Reel, so damn true.

ahh...we are all lonely now:) Not much more to say. They didn't release the trailer, most likely for this reason. Its nine months. Understandable. See you guys in a few months->walking away slowly and sadly looking behind me for any hopeful trace of any activity...:(

No kidding... yes, the film is 9 months down the road. But I simply don't understand that since this is more of a genre type film (meaning it's for a specific audience), why not use the time to their advantage and advertise as early as possible? Not saying blow the doors off the thing and reveal everything, but a teaser trailer can really spread around and help build momentum for future teasers and then the final release of the film. Even if it's not a trailer... maybe just a 1 minute clip from the film or something to let the fans wet their whistles a bit and spread it virally. Yes... I'm sure that's what the purpose of the photos was... but as you can tell, this forum has died and so has the internet chatter about it. I guess, being as big a fan as I am of Freddy, it's just my sheer anxiousness for this film and just thinking that I have to wait possibly months before seeing any footage is absolutely painful. Will it make the excitement more fun in the end? Yes... but I'm sorry... I need to stop my bleeding right now.

TOTALLY OFF TOPIC!!!... just got back from seeing "G.I. JOE", f***in' amazing movie!!!!

Wonder who will make the music for the Nightmare reboot?

I also agree,Brad & Drew you guys need to get a Friday sequel rolling. Forget the birds just bring Jason back again for the "13th" film in the franchise. Put Tommy Jarvis in the story and have Derek come back as a bigger faster and meaner menace. Bring us back to Crystal Lake and then I believe you will have the biggest opening weekend for Jason EVER. ...Please make Friday 2, Make it and the audience will come.

Ugh... going even a couple of week without a new Nightmare update is agonizing. I curse whoever got me interested in Freddy in the first place. I'd be able to think about other things than wasting my time clicking "refresh" on google searches hoping that a new updated story will pop up. Any recommendations as to what I should do for my pain, Brad?

i agree with "HisNameWasTravis", if/when u are going to make a friday sequel make it memorable, make it a movie that everyone will be talking about years later.

but that's really up to the writers, they have to write a REALLY!!! good script.

Wtf...Are you kidding me there is much more anticipated movies like the new batman,the hobbit teaser like 4 years ago that's no bull.So it's crap that they are not releasing it because of loss of luster.I for one feel i can wait that long i mean its not like its a surprise that it is comming...and besides isnt that the God Damn point of a TEASER.....

HisNameIsTravis, I like your ideas! Better start up the F13th sequel, and yes - Tommy Jarvis is the ultimate nemesis for the series. And for God's sake, Manfredini should make the original score!

so far sounds awsome, I will wait and see. In the meantime, if your looking for new projects, I'd sugest something forgotten that you could revamp and make into a new classic, like "I drink your blood" or Ilsa She wolf of the SS. Just food for thought

i just finished whatching that 4 1/2 hour documentary about the making of "Halloween", it was pretty cool u got to see everything that went down on set...anyways, what i'm leading up to is that maybe they should put something like that on the NOES DVD/Blu-ray, just to give us an idea of all the shit that happened over the past couple of months...just a though PD.

thought**

Just a random question, but am I the only one who is tired of this fucking "Twilight" bullshit ? Seriously, the fact that this franchise has become so popular after only one unbeleivably awful installment (And we're gonna have to put up with three more)makes me loose all faith in today's entertainment industry. Some of the most popular things in America right now are "Transformers", "Twilight", and "Jonas Brothers", I mean is this what people today really want ? If so, then it makes me hate to think what we are coming to as a society (after all, we did elect Bush to office. Twice). Now more than ever, we need movies, music, and television shows that are actually good, and have an ounce of creativity, originality, and intelligence behind them. Entertainment is the most influential form of media in the modern world, and we keep getting handed shit, yet time and time again people aplaud this and ask for more. So what does that say about us ? Enough is enough. And no, this is absolutely no reflection on Platinum Dunes, just commenting on the entertainment industry in general, and I get it, the industry is in the buisiness of making money, but back in the good old days, we paid for quality, now we just pay for crap because I guess we'll eat up just about anything we're given.

To Keepin it Reel: Wow, if you don't like those things, why do you waste such time bashing them? You see, it works both ways man. Everytime somebody on here has a negative opinion about this film, you feel compelled to respond with a mile long post about how they are wasting their time. You are a hypocrite. Everyone has a right to vent about things that piss them off, yet you just proved that you talk out of both sides of your mouth, and you've lost credibility. I've tried to take a high road lately because I honestly felt like maybe I was making things a little too personal, but I just couldn't let this one slide.

To Eggman : Seems you've just been sitting around waiting for your chance to attack someone on this board, a dog always goes back to it's own vomit I guess. The only films I've defended have been "TCM", "F13", and "NOES" because you bash them just because you have a personal problem with Brad Fuller and everyone else that works for Platinum Dunes, that really has nothing to do with their films at all. They could put out a great film, and you would still have something bad to say. And the only reason I've defended "NOES" is because no one has even seen it yet, so how can you say that it's going to be bad ? If it turnes out bad, I won't defend it, but at least I wait for a movie to come out before I try to review it. Like a fool, you judge the quality of a film which you have never layed eyes apon, based on a supposed "leaked" draft that would have been written months before the film started shooting, and would have gone through countless rewrites since. So of course I defend Platinum Dunes every time someone has something negative to say about "this film" because no one has fucking seen it yet. And while everyone has a right to voice how pissed they are about a film they don't like, NO ONE has the right to trash something that has yet to be released. I give things a chance before I decide to bash them. And like everyone else on this board, you will be there opening weeking, giving your money to the production company you claim so rightiously to despise, and then we'll see who the real hypocrite is. Till then, peace asshole, & have fun penning your next oscar worthy script.

SO any thing on that Friday the 13th sequel brad???

Also i im so excited for the NOES remake!!!!

"NO ONE has the right to trash something that has yet to be released" Oh I beg to differ. Given the track record behind the production company, I think that there is more than enough reasons to presume this will be bad, but that's beside the point. The real point here is that everyone has a right to say what they want. You, on the other hand, seem to think that only those who share your opinion are free to express their's. What gives you that right? Who made you the policeman of speech on this board? "Now more than ever, we need movies, music, and television shows that are actually good, and have an ounce of creativity, originality, and intelligence behind them." I can't believe that someone who would make a comment like that, would then bash people for expressing a similar opinion about something that you happen to like. Seriously, do you not see how utterly hypocritical that is? How fucked up are you?

Egg Man...your just very very sad...are you jealous or something...if u hate Brad Fuller so much and the company why are you even on this site??...fair play its your opinion but if you dont like them that much why are you on this site...and i bet at some point you will watch the Nightmare Remake

i think we'r gettin a trailer in a few weeks look at brads twitter...been working on something that i can discuss in a few weeks...trailer anyone??

To Eggman : Let's get one thing strait, we don't share a similar opinion on anything, and you are not "voiceing your concerns" about "NOES" or any of their other films based on their "track record" (clever scapegoat though), you are bashing them because you feel personally scorned by someone at Platinum Dunes, and you want to get revenge by trashing their film 9 months before it's release. Not to mention you said you knew Wes Craven personally, so I think you're probably just one of his buddy writers, sent here to do his dirty work. You don't give a shit about Platinum Dunes' films at all. Your only reason for being here is to bad mouth anything and anybody. The entire time you've cursed us with your presence on this board, you have only spewed venom toward Platinum Dunes, and every one of your posts have been PERSONAL. You have no place on this site because it is clear you have an agenda, and your goal is to ruin Platinum Dunes and deter as many people from seeing their films as you possibly can. Your garbage. And in regards to your question : "How Fucked up are you ?", well buddy, I'm not the one comming on here everyday, bashing a company that I claim to hate, and a film I claim to have no intention of seeing (although I'm sure you'll be there opening night). You apparently have no life, and you are simply a looser with alot of time on his hands, who is jealous of Fuller, Form, Bay, and everyone else at Platinum Dunes for making films that are actually successful and arent "universally hated". So now you have a choice. You can keep attacking me personally, like a little child, (proving you are only on this site to stir up shit), and you and I can go at it like there's no tomorrow, or you can learn to bite your tongue, and shut the fuck up, at least in regards to me. If you choose to continue comming after me, that's fine because myself, as well as anyone else on this board you decide to attack, can more than hold my own against you, and rest assured, you will not have the last word. Your move.

IS THERE ANY BLOODY MODERATORS ON THESE FORUMS OR ARE YOU JUST GONNA SIT BACK AND WATCH CERTAIN PEOPLE RUIN SHIT??.. SOMEONE STOP ALL THIS OFF-TOPIC TALK & ARGUING!.. FOR GOD SAKE PEOPLE, THERE'S NOTHING WORSE THAN ORDERING A SANDWICH WHICH TURNS OUT TO BE DILDO!.. POINT BEING, WHAT I JUST SAID DOESNT MAKE SENSE, AND NEITHER DOES ALL THIS CRAP THAT I KEEP READING ON HERE, SO MY ADVICE TO ANYONE WHO DOESN'T WANT THE SANDWICH, TAKE THE DILDO AND GO FUCK YOURSELF COZ I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF LOGGING ON HERE.. I'M GONNA GET MY 'NOES' INFO FROM ELSEWHERE!!..

Dude, you're just a little cry-baby who doesn't like being called out on your bullshit. You made a very hypocritical (and off topic I might add) post. I chose to throw it right back at you, and you respond by trying to shout me down. You're like one of those town-hall meeting guys that tries to disrupt said meeting because you don't want people to even have the discussion. People are going to have their reasons for not liking this production, or even Platinum Douche. You're just going to have to live with that. I noticed that you never respond to the points that I make, and that you only seem interested in dismissing them altogether because YOU have an agenda. You are just completely completely enamored with Brad Fuller and the films he produces, so you get your panties in a twist when someone complains. I'm not going anywhere, and like I said before, I'm going to try not to take aim at individuals here, but if someone makes a hypocritical statement like you did, I'm afraid I'll be compelled to respond, and point out the fact that they're the pot calling the kettle black.

Sorry... but I'm siding with The Egg Man on this one. Egg Man criticizes the NOES Remake and gets thrashed for bashing something he hasn't seen. Now Keepin it reel comes in and starts to thrash the Twilight series. Just so you know... I am a fan of the Twilight series. Just because it's not your cup of tea, doesn't mean it's not someone else's. I wasn't into them... but then my wife did and I got curious what she was so interested in and I got interested as well. But you have to admit... the teenage girl mob is nearly an unstoppable force. Now and then, something comes along and completely grasps the attention of these girls. Twilight has simply done that. You don't like it. I do. I find it entirely ironic that you bashed the Egg Man for thrashing the NOES remake because he doesn't like what Platinum Dunes is doing. But then you completely do the EXACT same thing with something that YOU do not like. Is the Twilight series a masterpiece? No way. But did I enjoy reading the books and get sucked into the story? Yes I did. I'm a morbid horror fan that loves blood and guts yet this teen vampire series snagged my attention unexpectedly. So, let me say to you exactly what you said to the Egg Man when he was stating his feelings, "Glad at least one of the haters have been banned.I'm amazed at all the negative energy people will go out of their way to throw at this film.And even more amazed that they continue to do so when they know that no one wants to hear it, and that they aren't gonna sway other people in favor of their own ignorant opinions." and "nd before you shoot your mouth off again, and say this is just an opinion, let me just say that your views towards Platinum Dunes are just an opinion, shared only by you on this board, and I think I speak for everyone else here when I say, no one wants to hear it.This is a place for civil discussion and positive attitudes, not negativity.So please take yours someplace else.You're only looking for attention, and if you continue you be immature, we're all simply going to ignore you." Get the hint?

By the way... Freddy rules! Bring on the Remake!

To Knifegloves.com: WOW. I am honestly humbled by your words. I thank you very much, and I'll tell you, one of your previous posts was the reason why I cooled it for a while. I will never stop voicing my opinion, but I'm going to try and be a little more respectful from here on out. I appreciate the fact that you are looking forward to this, and you are a stand up guy in my book. Thanks again.

No hard feelings, bud. I love diverse opinions... just hate it when it gets disrespectful. But we all have emotions and sometimes let those emotions boil over. I'm guilty of that as well. I just hope we can all be respectful of one another and discuss and debate opinions in a friendly and calm way.

To Eggman, I have responded to just about all of your points (ecxept for the obsurd ones), and you have yet to respond to me calling you out on having something personal against certain people who work for Platinum Dunes, probably because you're a friend of Craven's and now, you want to whine about how he wasn't asked to be involved with the remake (making YOU the "crybaby"), which is reinforced by the fact that while Platinum Dunes was making all those other remakes, you did weren't here shooting your mouth off. It was only after they announced the production of "NOES", without cunsulting Craven, that you felt the need to come on here and start bashing, because they didn't include YOUR friend(Thus giving YOU an agenda). I have only defended a handful of PD films, with the exception of "NOES" because no one has seen it yet. I have also previously stated that I did not like "TCM:The Beggining", the other two films I have not seen. So I do not defend Platinum Dunes "unconditionally", but I don't passionately trash any of them, while also taking personal cheap shots against the producers either. You on the other hand are completely biased, going out of your way to trash this film time and time again, and you haven't even seen the fucking trailer. I never said people don't have the right to dislike a film, I said they don't have the right to trash one they have never seen. Once you see the movie, if you don't like it, fine, till then, your rants are unfounded. I may like the "TCM" & "F13" remakes, but I never said anyone else had to like it to, nor have I attacked anyone for disliking them, exept in regards to "NOES" because again, no one has seen it. So you're twisting things around to make it seem as though I attack anyone who doesn't share my opinion, and that is just not the case. The main person I have ever attacked is you, and the last couple of times you provoked them, so expect me to defend myself. And to Knivegloves.com : I don't know why the fuck you are even putting yourself in the middle of this, other than the fact that you like the "Twilight" series, and didn't like the fact that I said I don't. You love it, I hate it. That's fine. I never said you, or anyone else had to hate it with me. Just like I never said anyone had to like "TCM", or "F13" with me, nor did I attack them for not liking them. I have simply defended "NOES" against people who won't even give it a chance before they degrade it. You said "Egg Man criticizes the NOES Remake and gets thrashed for bashing something he hasn't seen. Now Keepin it reel comes in and starts to thrash the Twilight series", well buddy, at least I actually saw "Twilight", Eggman (As well as everyone else here) hasn't even seen a single frame of footage from "NOES". I gave "Twilight", "Transformers", ect. a chance, before I said I hated them, and again, I don't ask anyone to hate them with me. Just "voiceing my opinion". But apparently Eggman needs everyone on this board to hate "NOES", and anything else Platinum Dunes touches along with him. So I may have voiced my "feelings" toward "Twilight", but you don't see me personally calling out the director of that film, nor the studio, producers, actors, or anyone else who worked on it, just the film itself. And in regards to one of my quotes that you decided to throw back at me, it didn't make much since. A.) I have in no way been banned from this site. So either get your info strait, or find a better quote. And B.) My supportive opinion toward Platinum Dunes is shared by most people on this board.(you included apparently, because you always say how excited you are for this film, and everytime I go to Mr. Fuller's twitter page, you are the main one asking him a million questions, so the very fact that you would side with the one person trying to ruin the credibility of a film YOU can't wait to see, is of a hypocritical nature in and of itself.) There are only a couple people here who try to kill everyone else's excitement for this film, and Egghead is the main one. Also,You guys bitch about staying on topic, yet you take time out to attack me, which is way off topic, so don't go aroung labeling other people "hypocrites", if you're not going to practice what you preach, that works both ways to. (Not to mention, there is currently no new info on the film in which to discuss, this site was practically dead until Eggman decided to get a little battle started) And back to Egghead : Like I said before, you can keep comming after me personally, and I guess now you will stir up other people against me as well, won't rattle my cages. We can go at this forever if you want, and I will always have a response waiting. Up to you. And I will always voice MY opinions as well.

I'll just repeat myself. It's usually easier to get your point across in less than 1,000 words. Oh.. and by the way... I'm quoting YOU: "This is a place for civil discussion and positive attitudes, not negativity. So please take yours someplace else. You're only looking for attention, and if you continue you be immature, we're all simply going to ignore you."

To Knivegloves.com : I knew who you were quoting, and I for the most part have kept my responses civil, but if you attack me personally, you'd better believe I'm gonna shoot back. And as for my "We're all simpy going to ignor you" quote, that's the second time you used that today, yet you still keep coming back with more to say. If you truely wanted to ignore me, you'd stop adressing your posts to me, or mentioning me at all. My battle was with Eggman, yet you felt the need to stick your nose in it as well. oh, and next time, I can use 2,000 words if you'd like.

You're keepin it reel alright; reel stupid. You just don't seem to get the point dude. You have the right to tell people off all you want, but I think the main reason why someone who usually agrees with you decided to side with me on this particular issue, is that you were just plain wrong. You can't accept that, and that makes you look like a blustery douchebag. You keep telling people that they have no right to bash this film because it hasn't come out yet. Well, obviously there are a lot of people who don't agree with that. There are people that take into account Platinum Douche's track record, the script that was leaked, the fact that they hired a first time video director, and the total disrespect that was shown to Craven. All of those points are legitimate points of contention for myself, and lots of people here. You seem to get all bitchy when someone has the temerity to disagree with you. This is incredibly narcissistic, and you look like a fool every time you reiterate the same opinion over and over again. I'll tell you this though, I do not feel that I have an agenda here. I'm not trying to CONVINCE people that this film is going to suck. I know that my opinion isn't going to sway anyone who is seriously excited about this film coming out. I don't have that kind of power, nor do you in the alternate respect. I am simply bitching about it on the offhand chance that someone may listen. I hold no illusions that I will have any impact on this production. The most I can hope for is that someone who reads something that I wrote here, will think to themselves as their watching this film when it comes out, "Gee, he WAS right." That may in turn get them to be a little more discriminating the next time they want to spend money on a horror film, and see that these guys are producing it. It's a bit of a stretch, but a fella can dream, can't he? I am a friend of Wes Craven's. I have worked with the man three times, and will hopefully be working with him three more times. I have a deep respect for him, and I can tell you that at no time did Wes ever ask anyone to go onto a message board and stick up for him. He's not that kind of person. That's why you haven't seen him give a lot of interviews about this project, or really even talk about it that much. I'll let you in on a little secret though, there is a project that Wes is circling around right now that takes dead aim at horror remakes. It is a very high profile project, and you might be able to guess what it is based on that info. The man is going to have the last laugh here when this film comes out and is universally panned. I have no doubt that it will make money in it's opening weekend. It will turn a hefty profit, and everyone involved will make money. Mark my words though, most true horror fans will hate it. That's not an opinion pal, that's a fact. One more thing before I let you go write what is sure to be a magnum opus of spelling errors and petulant little whines, culminating in a tantrum. You seem to not realize that when you call someone out for not having a life, or better things to do than argue on a message board, that you are, in fact, talking about yourself as much as the person you are spewing vitriol at. How does it feel to be as obliviously stupid as to do something like that? I'm just curious. You see, your hypocritical ways started even earlier than your little rant about Twilight and Transformers. How much time do you have? How much of a life do you have? The fact that you couldn't see that, along with the redundancy of your posts and the absolute grade-school level of the writing behind them, might make you reconsider where all that money you're spending on your education is going. Get yourself a dictionary, thesaurus, and a working knowledge of the English language before you engage in a war of words with me little man. You'll fair better. I believe that is check, and mate.

To Eggman : If I was "plain wrong" as you put, in speaking about how I hate "Twilight", then you are most certainly wrong in prematurely hating the new "NOES". It will in no way be "universally panned", and I assure you that there will be just as many TRUE horror fans who will love it, as there are fans you claim will hate it. So your statement was an OPINION, sir. But I guess it's my folly for expecting a WRITER of all people(who apparently has such and exceptional education in comparison to everyone else)to realise how much of an idiotic, and hypocritical statement that was for you to make. Especially after you just got up on your soapbox to preach about hypocrisy. So how does it feel to do something as obviously stupid as that ? And if you were reffering to the inevitable "Scream 4", given the last two god-awful installments of that series,(both directed by Craven I might add) I seriously doubt Mr. Craven will be having the last laugh. Hell, even Neve Campbell knows that the series is stale, and she's just an actor. Guess that's why she won't commit to the project. Oh, and before you decide to correct my spelling, and grammer (because apparently I'm talking to an English professor), it's called a typo, and your posts are never short of a few. Who knows, maybe when you come down from your high horse, you will realise how hypocritical YOU sound. So whenever your next menstual cycle comes around, and you decide to bitch even further, I'll be waiting. Check, and mate ? Hardly.

I like turtles....

Hey KniveGloves, what a coincidence, I like turtles to !!!!!!!!!

EGGMAN: I just want to tell you that I have been following this blogg page for quite some time, and you inspired me to make an account and speak my mind as well because every time I come on here I hope to find new info on nightmare on elm st., and all i get is you spamming this board about how much you hate platinum dunes, and now you are just going after keepin' it reel just cause you want to be a little bitch. You seem desperate to have the last word no matter what, and no matter how stupid you look. Keepin it reel may have said something that sounded hypocrtitical, but I don't believe that was an invitation for you to open your big fat mouth. You are just as hypocritical, if not more so, and you condradicted yourself plenty of times. So basically, FUCK OFF. If your gonna cause trouble for people, don't just single one person out, other people have commented on how they don't like you, but you only fire back at keepin it reel. Be man enough to attack everyone you cocksucker, or just shut the fuck up.

Boy... I feel like I'm reading the wall of a Junior High School men's bathroom.

Oh, and to Brad, release the trailer pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeas!1!11!11!!ONE1!!!!!

Yes... we SERIOUSLY need something else to talk about. Too bad Brad doesn't have a say as to when it gets released. It's up to New Line. Brad wanted to release it but the Studio said no. :(

I never said that you were plain wrong about Twilight. I wasn't even saying anything about the content of your post. If you really want to know, I agreed with everything you said IN that post. I hate Twilight, Transormers 2, and The Jonas Brothers. What I was pointing out, was that you were wrong to make that post in the first place since you are the one that says people aren't allowed to post negative feelings. I think you know that though, and you're only pretending not to get what I said to you because you don't have a valid reason behind your hypocrisy. So not only are you talking out of both sides of your mouth, but you are now being intellectually dishonest, and coy. To The Black Stallion: I haven't reserved my responses for Keepin it Reel. I think Knifegloves.com will tell you that we have exchanged a few words in the past, and I've had heated exchanges with DeanBarry, and DNugz as well. You might not see it on this particular thread, so I invite you to view my posting history on all of the past blog entries for Platinum Douche, as well as my user account at bloodydisgusting.com before you go making outlandish claims like that. Just click on my name and search until you are content. As far as being hypocritical, do you even know what that word means? I have never said that people aren't entitled to their opinions here. I am perfectly respectful of your opinion that I am an asshole. You have every right to respond here and call me names. I will reserve that right as well, and may use it in the future if you'd like to go back and forth with this.

To Eggman :, I never said people weren't ALLOWED to post negative feelings/opinions in general, I mearly said I WANTED and the rest of the haters to take your negative rants towards "Nightmare on Elm Street" elsewere for the simple fact that you haven't seen it, yet you continue to bad mouth it as if you had, and thought it sucked. Other people have come on here and said how they hated the remakes of "F13", "The Hitcher", and "TCM", and while I said I liked both "F13", and "TCM", I also said they were not flawless, and I told no one they didn't have the right hate those. I simply said no one had the right to negatively label the quality of a film in which they have never layed eyes upon,(or positively) and I think you knew that.(And I may be excited for this film, but I have never said it is going to be a sure masterpiece, nor have I said that I know without a doubt it's going to be great, yet you felt the need to let everyone know how sure you were that this film would be awful, as if it were a fact.) I guess you just have some kind of hard on for me, and decided to hit me with a completely unprovoked attack. And when I first started attacking you, you may not have attacked me personally, but you were calling out ALL of the Platinum Dunes supporters, calling us "tards", implied we had no backbone, and that we were not true horror fans. You also implied that you, and every other like-minded hater, were the only sane people on this board, oh , and my personal favorite, you said that we kiss Brad's ass for the simple fact that he is a millionare, and we were just happy to be talking to a rich person.(You caught us red handed ! Us common folk always make a point to defend a millionare whenever we get the chance, just because. Guess there's no fooling you.) And whatever I said in that "Twilight" post had nothing to do with you, or anyone else for that matter, yet you felt it was an invite to insult me, and you knew I was going to defend myself. You just want to spar with me to gain attention, rally up a following, and probably just for your own ammusement as well. And as I said, I at least give a film a chance before I label it an uninspired peice of shit. There are still 9 months to go before it's released, yet you are so sure it will be a disgrace. You claim to base this on Platinum Dune's track record, but last time I checked, it was the writers/director/actors that made films good or bad, not the people who finance them. That's like saying that because Fox has put out awful films on the scale of their "AVP" series, that all of their films will be bad. I don't know about you, but I also seem to remember many a great film that has come out of that studio.

Who wants cheese?

KnifeGloves: Do you live on this site or something? I couldn't help but notice that every time someone leaves a comment (no matter how unrelated to you) you always have a response posted within minutes. Makes me think you just sit around waiting to chime in. Just sayin'. :(

I would like to know why it's such a big deal to come on here and argue with one another about a movie! Is it really that big of a deal to get this frusterated and pissed about a movie? Can't you all be adults about something and move on? I mean if people piss you off and all and you keep on coming back with pety little smart ass remarks at each other then all you doing is adding fuel to the fire. You know GROW THE FUCK UP PEOPLE! If you don't like something state your opinion and let it be, don't talk shit about people if they like the very thing you don't like. I don't really think your opinion is gonna sway what other people like. On the other hand if you like something, don't get on here and say shit about people that don't like what you like. It's called an opinion, It's not GOSPEL! I mean hell, were all horror fans right? Just stop with the middle school pissin contest and fucking move on. That being said I hope this movie is good. I like some of the older films and I am exited to see this one. I'm not one of the fans that got pissed when they said they were making this movie and as you can tell by my name I am a huge Friday the 13th fan... did I get pissed when they said they were remaking that movie NO. I'm just happy to see my favorite horror films from my childhood are still around. Was I happy with the Friday remake... Yeah I mean it had it's flaws but what movie doesn't. Am I angry that they replaced Robert Englund... NO.. just like I didn't care when they pulled Kane Hodder from playing Jason. I know that was off topic but had to say it. I have read too much shit about that stuff. If you hate the thought of this movie being made... Then why come here? I mean it's cool and all but why come to a site that is all about something you hate? If you like the fact that this movie has been made then just ignore the people that hate it. Why carry on a long ass arguement with someone you have never met? Sorry for the long post just had to say something. Lets get back to talking about the movie... that would be a nice change for a while wouldn't it.

"You claim to base this on Platinum Dune's track record, but last time I checked, it was the writers/director/actors that made films good or bad, not the people who finance them. That's like saying that because Fox has put out awful films on the scale of their "AVP" series, that all of their films will be bad. I don't know about you, but I also seem to remember many a great film that has come out of that studio." This statement actually shows how little you know about how films are made. Platinum Douche is not a studio, and they aren't releasing anything. They are the production company that is making the film the studio will eventually distribute. Brad Fuller, Andrew Form, and to a lesser extent, Michael Bay, are the ones who are producing the film. They have an active role in how the film looks and feels. They are the ones who decide when a script is given the green light, and they are also the ones who hire the director to make the movie. They have a track record of hiring newbie video directors that have no ties to the horror genre to direct the films that they want to be made. That makes the directors on these movies just a hired gun that calls "action" and "cut." They do this because they believe that this is what their business model dictates. If you view a film's success through the box office receipts, then they are absolutely right. The other thing that they are guilty of is creating a marketing campaign that puts asses in the seats on the opening weekend. This gives them the benefit of reaping massive profits before the word of mouth gets out on the film. You'll notice that all of their films tend to drop off dramatically in just their second DAY of release; let alone their second weekend. Make no mistake, this whole blog here is designed to pump up the fans so that they can get you to see it before the reviews come in, and before word of mouth spreads among other message boards that the film may suck. It isn't because of some altruistic reason that they really love their fans. People seem to forget just how bad their films have been. The TCM remake was their first film, and you can tell that everyone involved wanted to make it great. Since then, it is clear that they are trying to follow some sort of formula. That is where they are failing. Films shouldn't be xeroxed and paint-by-numbers. Just look at any seminal film that kicked off a slew of knock-offs. The first one is always great, and the rest just get progressively worse until people stop showing up to them. TCM was their highest grossing picture, and you can see that they are putting their energies into blogs and marketing campaigns to stave off the inevitable crash. They do this because making something great is not their first priority. I don't think that any of them are deliberately trying to make something horrible, but they aren't really trying to make it good either. All they want to do is make something that fits their business model, and a lot of people don't see that. Here is what we know about this project so far. The script that was leaked contains all of the major plot elements that will make it into the final film; barring any extensive re-shoots. I know, I know, there could have been re-writes between January and the beginning of principal photography, but the script had to have been pretty locked down by then in order to have logistical elements such as casting, shot lists, location scouting, permits, set designs, costume design, and storyboards in place. This is a relatively low budget film, so in order to stay within the budget, or not go catastrophically over budget, those elements have to be in place before one frame of film is shot. That's not disputable. So the script that we have is going to be pretty much what we'll see in theaters. I notice that no one ever defends that script. It's because everyone who has read it has come away thinking that it is jaw-droppingly awful. We know that only a couple of elements have changed in the script. The character of Quentin no longer hosts a podcast, and there will be no spider death. These are minor changes that don't affect the major plot points. We also know that they've hired another first time director to helm the project. This is traditionally done so that they can exert creative control over the director. Finally, we know Platinum Douche's track record. We're all entitled to our opinions. Some may like to just shout us down when they don't agree, but it won't change the fact that more often than not, when a film has this much going against it, it will most likely end up horrible.

EGG MAN: You obiously have mistaken me for someone who gives two shit's about what you have to say...You question me on wether or not i know what hypocrisy means? Yet your the only one here being a hypocrit! You yourself said "You perfectly respect my oponion of you." Yet you still feel the need to comment on what I said like a little bitch. Your the main reason this blogg has been turned into a huge argument on who can get the last word in. How about instead of spending all your time on this blogg, you go sit down and write another million dollar script for all of us to enjoy! :D

So no news on Nightmare or Friday????????????????????????? come on brad update the site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Friday13th1984 is right about one thing, this back and forth argueing has gotten way out of hand, and is going nowhere fast. The purpose of this forum is to disscuss the Platinum Dunes FILMS,(and occasionally, one's that have nothing to do with PD when the news comes to a hault, and there is nothing else to talk about). Eggman, I say yay, you say nay. You're sure this film will be a failure, I'll reserve my reviews until April 30th. Either way, We've rabbit-trailed into a juvenile "pissing contest" as it were, and I'm ending it here. I will no longer be acknowledgeing any further hateful posts you so choose to send my way. Someone has to be the bigger man here, so I guess that person will have to be me. I've nothing more to say to you, but if you'd like to continue your rants, have at it sir.

And to Mr. Fuller, I know you have no control over the release of the teaser trailer, but seriously, at least update the site with some new info so we will all have something more productive to talk about. Photos, news, anything. Can't wait, peace.

I agree with you dude. Don't respond to me, and I won't respond to you. Fair enough.

I agree with you Dude. Don't respond to me, and I won't respond to you. Fair enough.

"I agree with you Dude. Don't respond to me, and I won't respond to you. Fair enough." WOW. You were the one who started this whole thing, and your tellin' him not to repond to YOU ?!?!?!?! EGG MAN your an asshole, and not only are you a hypocrit, you just proved you are a fucking lier as well. I seem to remember you saying you don't reserve your bullshit just for keepin it reel. Well I left a post for you on here hours ago that you still have yet to respond to yet you respond to keepin it reel within minutes ? You are a fuckin joke. :(

Sorry did I say joke ? I meant bitch.

....not this shit again. I thought this was over. I watch this site everyday, to read other people's ideas. But instead I read lot's of bullshit.

Anyways...Let's quit all this pointless arguing and blogg about what important. ( The film.) =D

"Well I left a post for you on here hours ago that you still have yet to respond to yet you respond to keepin it reel within minutes ?" Maybe that's because I'm not living on this message board dickhead. I responded to Keepin it Reel because it was between him and I. If you would like to keep going with me, then that's too bad. I haven't done anything hypocritical here, nor have I lied about anything. At least Keepin it Reel and myself have commented on other things here. You have limited yourself to attacks, and now you're claiming that you want to move on and "blogg" (sic) about what's important. You're the one that's a little bitch, because that's all you've done. Now go take Fuller's cock out of your mouth so we can hear what wonderfully intelligent ideas you have on the upcoming Platinum Douche production known as A Nightmare on Elm Street. We'll all be listening, so make sure you either spit or swallow. We have trouble making out what your saying with your mouth full.

This was just posted on Bloody-Disgusting: THE FRENCH SAY "F*CK YOU HELLYWOOD My boy Travis just pointed me to this very interesting article where some big French filmmakers have spoken out against Hollywood - and take a stab at the Elm Sreet reboot whle they're at it. Here's a tatse. "I can only talk for myself, but Hollywood is not much of an attraction for me," Mr. Du Welz (the director Calvaire and Vinyan) says. "I know I wouldn't be happy on a film set having two line producers prodding me like on a commercial." "Directors like myself, Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury, and Pascal Laugier have all been getting sent the same scripts, it's not like Hollywood is interested in us as individual talents," he adds. Mr. Bustillo (co-director of Inside) is in total agreement: "We [Julien Maury and I] have an American agent who couldn't understand how we could turn down directing a remake of 'A Nightmare on Elm Street.' He felt we were going to earn a lot of money and make a big hit -- why refuse? But for us, the screenplay wasn't any good, and we weren't going to be able to rewrite it. We're not interested in cheating, we want to make films we can be proud of." The link for the article is:http://online.wsj.com/article/SB125019614070830153.html This is basically what I've been saying.

Notice how he said that they were not going to be able to rewrite the screenplay? I think it's safe to say that the whole "leaked script" issue is officially put to rest.

Lets just stop all this bitch'in

DGo8, I completely agree. Oh, and since any new info on "Elm Street" seems to have gone on hiatus, I thought I'd mention something off topic. I just saw the trailer for a film called "Legion" a few days ago, and while I'm not the biggest Dennis Quaid fan, it looked pretty interesting. You guys should check it out. Also, there's an artical on Bloody Discusting regarding a possible sequel/reboot to Roland Emmerich's 1998 "Godzilla". If that's something anybody would be interested in, or would rather not be made at all, guess you could leave a few posts there in the mean time while we wait for Brad to update the site. Just some suggestions.

Ahh, I can post agin! Thought I was banned..

yes it is...

HEY BRAD AN UPDATE ONCE IN A WHILE WOULD B NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BRING ON THE TEASER!!!!!!!!

Wow, everybody has been so busy trying to one up each other on this site that no one has even mentioned the article that came up yesterday about Jackie Earl Hayley giving Freddy a Scottish accent. So, Freddy has gone all Scotty on us. Just reminds me of the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror where Willie was Freddy. I just find this hilarious.

Oh no... you don't actually believe that do you? His quote is, "I thought it would be really interesting giving him a Scottish accent. Not sure why. Think it works though. No, I think it’s definitely a scary process trying to step into the shoes of Robert Englund who has owned this character for decades. He’s done a brilliant job with it. His embodiment, his performance is what makes Freddy who he is." He was joking...

Oh thank God. I really was having flashes of Groundskeeper Willie. :)

LOL... I think that was his reference, actually. But he was in no way serious. We already know somewhat of what Freddy will sound like since the audio to the Teaser Trailer is online. You can clearly hear that he has no accent at all and just sounds creepier than ever.

Quote from IAMTHEEGGMAN: "NO ONE has the right to trash something that has yet to be released" Oh I beg to differ." I have only one question to ask...what are you completely fucking retarded? That is the dumbest possible statement you could have made to completely contradict your previous (should I mention redundant) posts. What is wrong with you? Now I don't say much, nor do I post here as much as others. However I do monitor this blog on a daily basis. Why? Let me make it simple for you to understand---> BECAUSE I'M EXCITED FOR THIS FILM! The difference is that if I felt the opposite then I could not imagine wasting my fucking precious time going on to a site that supports a film that I am against and state the same fucking pointless, useless opinions over and over that seem to have no appearent impact to begin with. So hopefully you are FINISHED with what you have to say because I'm kind of getting sick and tired of reading the same bullshit, as if for some reason you think Brad cares. Congrats...guess what, he doesn't. It is what it is my friends. He DOES however, take into account the efforts we have made in the past to make this film better and you must give him credit for that. So for the last time...lets stay on topic and discuss relevant excitment about this film! Oh, I know the response I will get for this--->"you're just kissing platinum ass." Yea well if you want me to be just as inmature as you are then I will respond with "why don't you pucker your chapped lips up and kiss mine??" Have a goodnite assholes.

The audio of the trailer was leaked? Where is it? I want to hear it. Is there a link?

Look at my hypocritical self! lol, one post here I'm saying "let's wait blah blah blah" then I hear the audio is leaked and I begin creaming my jeans. I'm ridiculous....:)

Welcome to the club, Fwanger. Here's the audio: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fl6fdDd_3Kc

Wow, poor quality, but beggars can't be choosers. Could barely make out Freddy's voice at the end, had to rewind it like five times and max out the volume on my speakers, got to love distortion. But sounds cool. Now if we only had some images to go along with it *hint hint Mr. Fuller* Oh btw, did anyone else watch the concept trailer on youtube? Some pretty interesting ideas in there. I like the whole partially charred still glowing ember Freddy thing they had going. Plus the firey glove was cool looking.

Halloween II, next week baby, NEXT WEEK!!!...can't wait for it, it's gonna be awsome.

About the whole scottish accent thing...in the Audiowhich was terrible al tho when you heard im at the end it made the hair on my next stand up...didnt sound scottish 1 bit..but its only like 6 words we heard....so he could have...i dont think it will be like a full on scottish accent doe... if it is full on i think its gonna be stupid it will be to much to get used to..but then agen it might sound good but..i dno

Anyone else see that new "Avatar" Trailer ? Fucking EPIC !!!!!! I'll be there opening night ! Now if only Warner Bros. would release the "Elm Street" trailer.

Hey Keepin it Reel... they MIGHT be releasing something toward the end of next week or the beginning of the week after. Not sure what it is yet but it might be footage. Keep our fingers crossed.

To megalodonbite: I think you're missing something here. Another poster had said "NO ONE has the right to trash something that has yet to be released." I was quoting that person. That's what those little elevated double comma things mean when you place them before and after a statement. I don't know how much remedial english you missed while you were giving handjobs to all the boys in grade school. Maybe you should actually read the responses before you lash out like a little bitch having a heavy flow day. Take some Midol man. There's no need for us all to suffer because the cramps have reached all the way to your brain. Furthermore, I don't care what anybody thinks about what I have to say. I'm going to keep saying it until I'm proven right when this piece of shit opens next year. Moreover, I just want to clarify something. A lot of people have said something to the effect that despite all of my negative comments about this production, that I will still be there on opening day. To this, all I can say is that I will not, in any way, shape, or form, contribute any money to Platinum Douche in the future. I will definitely see the film, but I won't be paying for it. I hope more people will do the same.

Why is everythink on this site now is like bitchin about each other...saying things to each other just shut up fuck sake...nobody wants to see you argu with each other its all i see if you wanna keep on doing this shit why dont you do it some where else

& yerr they maybe sanc shown soon..not sure what i hope its a trailer...or maybe a still from the film??

I'll ask again since no one responded. Has anyone watched that concept trailer for the Nightmare remake on youtube? By Christopher something or other. Check it out if you didn't. It's interesting. The Freddy's makeup is a little weird, so used to seeing Robert Englund, but they had some neat ideas.

guys the scottish shit isnt real he told me that the thiong he is gonna be releaseing is maybe an interview or the trailer in like halloween 2 or sorority row or the final destination or its a photo of freddys REAL face and not the fake one taht has been photoshoped

To Knivegloves.com: Thanks, I hope so.

I watched the concept trailer it looks good but it was very diffrent without Robert Englund.

Yeah... it's going to take some getting used to. But I think Jackie is a talented enough actor that he can put his own twist on it yet still make the character have that "Freddy essence". I think Jackie is one of the more underrated actors today and I'm thrilled that we (as fans) got him as Freddy. We have to admit... if we ever want to see another Freddy film be made, Robert will simply get to the point of being too old to play that kind of a role and we'd have to accept a change eventually anyway. I grew up as a Freddy fan and Robert will always hold a place in my memories as the original Freddy. That will never be taken from him. He will never be "replaced". He simply got to the point where he (and us) had to move on to a new era in the Nightmare realm and Jackie has stepped in to fill that void. I'm going to always remember Robert as Freddy but I have opened up a new section of my brain to allow a new interpretation of the classic character in. May Freddy never die.

Well said Knivegloves.com. Just like the "007", and "Batman" films, actors eventually get too old to play a part, just as writers and directors bring new interpretations to a franchise. First we had Keaton as Batman, then we had Kilmer, then Clooney(one I'd like to forget), and now we have Christian Bale who is arguably the best, but surely he will not be the last. So for any character to truely have a sense of immortality, new actors will have to come in to breath new life into that charcter. One day, Jackie Earl Hayley will also become too old to play the character, and decades from now the frachise will have to be completely rebooted yet again. Kind of like Dracula, or the Wolfman. (by the way, if anyone hasn't already seen the trailer for the new "Wolfman" movie, check it out. It's pretty cool !)

As far as I know, its not even Jackie in this concept trailer. Some no name. It's odd, but your right, we'll get used to it. It's not like Robert had the opportunity and turned it down. He just can't do that type of acting anymore. He had a good run of it, and the last three or four movies, not counting New Nightmare were pretty bad. I'm sorry, I know a lot of people are big on Freddy vs. Jason, but that movie was TERRIBLE. The only movie to this day that I ever walked out of in the movie theater. But that's another thread for another time. This is why I'm so excited about this remake, its a chance for a new actor to put their spin on Freddy. I got chills when Brad said that this Freddy isn't a jokster, no one-liners, he hunts you down and he butchers you. (paraphrasing). Freddy got so watered down in the last few movies. I mean, Mark was paper and Freddy cut him up. You can't see it, but I just rolled my eyes. (Although Dan turning into the Ghost Rider thing was friggin awesome). Its time someone gave this series the kick in the ass that it needs, and it platinum dunes wants to try it, I say go on guys! I'll be there opening night. (well, maybe a few days later after the douchebag little kids that go on opening night and ruin the evening for me have already seen it)

@Fwanger yerr i saw that trailer a while back....the people who made that video have done like a making of the trailer its quite good (Y)

Good News from Mr Fuller himself From Twitter bcfullerDon't give up, ill have something for you within two weeks and you'll like it. about 15 hours ago from t Im feeling a trailer coming on...i act dont want a picture of freddy now i would rather see a trailer

Agreed... I don't care if I don't see Freddy's face anytime soon. I just want to see some footage... but hopefully an obscure Freddy is in it. :)

yerr i agree 100% wit you Knifegloves.com...i dont want to see freddy just like standing there in like clear few if you like i dont want that at all...i wanna wait till i go and see the film at the cinema... to see him in full view...but i wanna see like Freddy kinda in tha shadows like u can make him out but not enough to make you fully see he's face. I was also wondering if they have the same kinda music..im not on about one two freddys coming for you...but the tune that plays in the film sometimes you know what i mean lol

I know Brad is well aware that the fans want the original theme. I mean, it is almost as iconic as the Halloween theme, and I am one who believes that if a piece of music is on the same level as a film/character/franchise in iconic status, it should be carried over into all incarnations of the story (kinda like how any Superman movie not featuring John Williams' theme is gonna suffer for it). It just depends on what Sam Bayer wants and if Steve Jablonsky is willing to use adapt another composer's work. But honestly, as The Incredible Hulk proved (for me anyway), if they're gonna use it, use it to its full potential, not just a little musical wink to the fans. I remember when they talked about using the TV Hulk theme in the new movie last year. It seemed like a big deal the way Leterrier talked about it, and they even featured it fairly prominently in the trailers/tv spots, but in the actual movie, they just reference a small portion of it as a nod to the fans. They should have used the full theme, even if only for one scene, but even the small bit they used, there were honestly better scenes in the movie they could have used that small bit. So yeah...I hope we hear Bernstein's theme in the movie. But like I said, adapt the new score around it so that it still embodies the film...don't just throw a small bit like they did in FvJ.

Update...When brad said he'll have sanc ready within two weeks....he's twitter said this... bcfuller Getting closer about 4 hours ago from txt Im saying it now...im guessing either Friday where gonna see something or tha 1st of sept!

He said it would be the end of this week or the beginning of next week.

i hope its soon and its sounding like it might be a trailer but thats justa guess from a later post saying that he never said it was a trailer but it could be so im excited to see what it is

I wouldn't be surprised if that "something" is going to be the teaser trailer attached to "Halloween II" when it opens tomorrow. Guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out.

I'm going to see "HALLOWEEN II" tonight, i'm hoping we see the teaser for NOES..lol.

tell us all was there a teaser???????

Wonder what Fuller is doing for surprise?

Some stills or trailer?. obvs one of them lol

NO TEASER!!!! for NOES before Halloween II...the only thing that pissed me off about Halloween II is that it wasn't the same kid playing young Micheal, that really threw me off...i'm still trying to figure out the story line, it's really messed up so if anyone can shine a light on it for me i would really apreciate it..lol

i just read an interview that they had with Rob Zombie and it sort of pisses me off, read it for yourself... http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/UnNews:Inte rview_%E2%80%94_Rob_Zombie_discusses_%22Halloween_II%22

To DGo8: Was it good ? I was supposed to be seeing it tonight, but something came up and I didn't get to. I was pissed. Just wondering if I missed a good movie.

Sorry, meant to address that to Dunes Fan.

it was alright, i didn't get it at first (what the story was) but i think i do know...all-in-all if ur a fan of just mindless killings, than yeah this movie is for you..lol

Thanks. Some of the early reviews for the film were bad as well so I don't know. The guy from "Ain't It Cool News.com" said that people were booing at the end, and that he hadn't seen an audience response that bad in a while. Guess that's why they didn't pre-screen it for critics. I'll probably still check it out, but I won't have any high expectations for this film now. By the way, apparently Rob Zombie is set to remake "The Blob". How many remakes is this guy gonna make ? Actually, he'll be making a remake of a remake.

yeah, don't go in there thinking it's gonna be a great movie; i did and, well i guess it's what a Halloween movie should be like (eerie & very dark in nature) it's good, but not great. it's a slasher flick big time, but it is also a ghost story a little bit (in respect to his mom), sorry if I ruined it for you..lol

as you probably already know from"HOUSE OF A 1000 CORPSES" & "THE DEVIL'S REJECTS" Rob Zombie likes to make very disturbing movies (he likes his characters to go beyond the norm)that's what Halloween II is like...REALLY MESSED UP MOVIE!!!

sorry, computer is being dumb...clicked it 3 times by accident..lol.

I don't know, I liked it. There were some very odd things about it of course, but this one I felt delved deeper into the craziness inside the Meyers' family, so I wasn't too put off by ghostly Sherri Moon and her effin' white horse. I don't listen at all to critics when it comes to movies as I feel I can make up my mind for myself about whether I'm going to like a movie or not, and I came out of there feeling I got my money's worth.

i liked it to, it just takes me a while to figure out what the story is in most movies..lol

This whole waiting game is a bunch of crap. I think it's flat out BS that Comic Con trailer wasn't released, but I can deal with the excuse about it being too early. Why then on your twitter page talk constantly about some big news coming. Last week the big news was coming at the end of next week (aka NOW). Now today on your twitter page I see you have put "I hope to share it next week" WTF?!?!? Why are NOES fans being played with like puppets on a string? This isn't some rinky dink horror movie nobody has ever heard of. It's one of the biggest horror franchises in history with quite possibly the most iconic horror character ever. The fans deserve something and you guys are just taking a dump on them and I'm really disgusted with it. The first pic released was worthless, that comic con poster is ok but still pretty worthless as nothing can be seen, then we get slapped in the face by not released comic con footage, and finally this current toying with us. Just release whatever you're going to release. Quit screwing with everybody and please release something that is actually worth releasing unlike the garbage put out so far. You guys realize who's giving you the fat wallets. The fans! Keep up this non sense and every time I want to see a WB/Platinum Dunes movie I'll just buy a ticket to a different movie but still watch the WB/PD movie. That way you guys don't get the money cause I'd rather give it to somebody that doesn't treat their fans like shit. Enough is enough!

I agree...its been held off for to long now!

amikec281 has a point. Brad did say that he'd have something for us by now, or at the beggining of next week. Now he says he hopes (and I stress the word HOPES) he might have something for us at the end of next week. So who knows if they'll release anything then either. I'm no marketing expert, but should it really take this long to release whatever the hell it is they're "planning" to release ? It can't be much more than a trailer, or some pictures, and given the fact that the trailer they showed at Comic-Con is already done and ready to go, you'd think they could've show us something by now. I'm gonna be pissed if we waited this long just to find out that the big surprise is just a couple more random photos. And I don't see why they didn't attach the teaser to "Halloween II" either. That would've made much more since, and even though I heard the movie sucked big balls, a lot of people went to see it (and a lot more are going to), thus making it the oppurtune time to release the trailer, making sure it is seen by everyone. Seroiusly, I don't what the fuck kind of monkeys Warner Bros. put in charge of the marketing of this film, but thus far, they haven't done a really good job. People are getting fed up, and loosing interest quick, so they'd better get the ball rolling pretty soon. At this point, the only people who really even know about this film are the "NOES" FANS, and horror fans who make it their buisiness to know about this kind of stuff. I think NOW would be a good time to raise awareness and anticipation in the general public. Just my thoughts on the matter.

Just throw in my two cents: considering that they wrapped like right before Comic-con, that they had any footage to show at all is saying something. However, the longer wait for a wide release teaser could be the result of them wanting to get far enough along in the cutting process that would more accurately represent what the final movie will be (i.e. the CC footage was just something quickly thrown together with what they had, perhaps they have had the chance to go through everything and really make something that shines). A lot of times what is shown at Comic-con is a blue print for what finally comes to the theatres trailer wise, but you gotta remember, there are those instances where what is shown at the Con is edited with the mindset that this is for fans who already have a foot in the door...the wide release trailer however needs to potentially be able to grab the attention of everyone in the audience.

Maybe, but I still want to see the Comic-Con footage, and they could at least put that on the net, then release the more polished "official trailer" in theaters. Either way, they could have shown us something by now, and Brad acts like he doesn't even know exactly when he'll be able to show something, and just makes a bunch of guesstimates that fall through. Maybe it's because Warner Bros. can't get their shit together, but if that's the case then Brad needs to stop teasing us, and tell us something when he's absolutely shure what's gonna be released and when. Seriously, I've got blue balls here.

I like Brad Fuller i dont agreew ith all tha shit he gets...but he's pissed me off now...a few weeks ago it was...im gonna have something for yous within two weeks...we didnt get it...and then he said it..we didnt get nothing...and now...he's jusy on bout Final Destination & H2 on twitter...im not being funny but Nightmare On Elm Street will probly be bigger then both of them put together...show us whatever it is you working on please I understand that its most likly Warner whos stoping them puting sanc new out but still...show warner are cry for more on this film!!

Yeah, it's the teasing that pisses me off. Why keep coming on twitter and talk about something that is coming? He's promised we will like it repeatedly but of course he can't just say what it is. "Let's be clear, I am just working on something for all of you. Never said it was a trailer-but it could be." Come on, why post shit like that and tease more. Just say what it is already! On 8/25 "Getting closer" Gee thanks for getting everybody excited. Here it is 5 days later and still nothing. I especially like the lame "i am trying but to put everything in perspective, we wrapped a month ago.". Uhh you finished filming for less than 2 weeks and made a 2 minute trailer for CC. So how long do you have to finish filming to give other fans just a 30 second teaser? I don't think people want much but we want something and we want something that isn't total crap. No, we don't want a picture of Freddy in total darkness like we got. I'm sure people would be very happy with something simple like people running around and screaming, show a claw scrape, and then have Freddy say some evil shit to end it. That would be easy as hell and you could still keep Freddy's appearance top secret, as appears to be the studio's plan, while at the same time at least giving the fans something. This teasing is fucked up!

I'd be over the moon if it was just was a audio of freddys voice or a clip of the kids running away from freddy...or a dream clip maybe..but dont give it away to much then have freddy say sanc i think everyone would be happy

Teasing is a pain in the ass, but I will have patience. Something good is coming I think.

Well, I look at it at like this. Brad seems to be the real deal with wanting to keep in touch. He wants to assure us that something is coming soon, but ultimately its the studio that decides what, and for Brad, he is probably obligated for legal reasons with what can even be said prior to a release of any information. It is a tease, but the man wants to let us know that something is coming that we will (hopefully) eat up. Bottom line is we don't what the deal is, but I think we should be thankful to have a direct line to the goings on. And remember, the studios do have final say: remember the first trailer for Halloween 2. The studio wanted to put something out, but not even Rob got any say on what was released, in fact I remember reading that he was kinda bummed that the first teaser was the way it was, cause it heavily emphasized the hospital stuff, making a direct frame of reference to the original Halloween 2, which we of course know now that the two films are vastly different.

I agree Brads the real deal..but its tha facted Warner have pissed us all off about tha whole comic-con thing...& we've been waiting along time for this..like everythink that was shown at comic-con is on the web aprt from this...& two or three times its been..its coming..end of the week..next week..i think it because the comic-con thing because if there wasnt a trailer at comic-con we wouldnt be as pissed as we are now...sure we'd wanna see some thing but we wouldnt be this annoyed because alota people got to see it..but then again alot more didnt..because warner..i think Brad would glady show us but..Warners tha boss

it's not Warner, it's New Line

Warner owns New Line

Brad's recent silence is deafening on his Twitter account. I swear... the next update he gives on Twitter better say, "Here's the trailer for all you hungry fans! URL". LOL. Wishful thinking of course... hope it's true though. The internet has become boring now... I need something to keep me entertained at work!

Well.. we got a Twitter update. Once again: "Hope to have something very soon." *sniffles* I thought very soon was a week ago? LOL. J/K Brad... keep up the great work! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us! It'd better be a decent trailer though... I may have to hunt you down with one of my fake gloves and.... do nothing.

did not know that "FREDDYISKING"...now i do..lol

did anyone hear about the thing that Disney bought Marvel...that's horse shit..lmao

Next week...he will update ez twitter and say...its coming soon lol..prove me wrong!

All Brad will say is "I hope to share this soon" or "I'm working really hard for you guys" What a load of shit. You can't believe anything that comes out of this guy's mouth. If we have anything by October I'll be mildly surprised.

Site update needed soon ?

Im suprised there was no nightmare news at Frightfest this year!

VERY SOON!!!!!

TEASER, TEASER, TEASER, TEASER, c'mon people say it with me, TEASER TEASER TEASER..lol

Screamfest i ment**

I got a fealing it wont happen until next month on end of this one

feeling*

O_O

What a surprise. No Update.

Yeah... I have to admit... it's rather frustrating to be told we would have something new "by the end of next week or the beginning of the following one" and then have neither one happen. If they're going to release a trailer... why not just save the work and release the Comic-Con trailer??? It's already done and apparently good enough to have an audience of several thousand cheering afterward. I swear... after this time of waiting and statements like he's "trying to get something great done"... it'd better be good.

I agree wit you knifegloves....i come on this site everyday(not lieing) just in hope theres an update with what ever is being worked on on show...i'll keep my faith in you Platinuim Dunes im the only one out of most people i know who thinks your do a good job at a new take on a classic movie & a iconic character..its great your sticking to the evil dark side of Freddy & not tha campy Freddy but..please stope saying where gonna get sanc by the end of the week..when we'r not tell us when you know 100% we will get a chance to see it. Im not bashing you guys at PD im just slowy getting pi**ed off with being told its coming next week when it aint.

I check this and Brad's twitter multiple times every day. I am so sick of Brad's bullshit. Hey Brad we don't need something special or great. We just want SOMETHING! Come on!!! You could make a 2 minute trailer in late July. How hard do you have to work or how hard is it to really give us something? We don't need some fantastic, mind blowing shit (which I HIGHLY doubt will happen anyways) Just put SOMETHING out or if you've ran into this "snafu" then let's just see what you got. We're all sick and tired of your bullshit "it's coming next week" excuses.

This is getting old. Guess "next week" means come back in November. I wouldn't be surprised if we make it all the way to Halloween without an update. I realise Warner Bros. is in control of the marketing campaign, and that they decide what gets released and when, not Brad. It's clear he has absolutely no control over it, and he most likely hasn't a clue as to what will be shown and when, and that's fine, but he needs to stop pretending he does. All it's doing is pissing people off. Don't say it's comming at the end of the week, if you're not 100 % sure it's comming at the end of the week. And if Warners is giving you release dates, then going back on their word, then obviously after so many times, you should just stop running with it, then posting it on twitter getting us all excited just for us to be let down cause WB apparently doesn't have their shit together. Let me let you guys in on a little secret. While Platinum Dunes may be doing the best they can to bring you a good movie, Warner Bros. does not give a shit about you, or the rest of the fan community. They're too busy with other (more important/proffitable)properties like "Green Lantern", "Batman 3", "Harry Potter", and the rest of their bread and butter flag ship franchises. So of course "NOES" is going to be put on the back burner as far as marketing is concerned. Warner exects are solely in the buisiness of making money (they have no hand in the quality of the film, they're just releasing it), and truth be told, no matter how great "NOES" is, or how well it performs, a low budget horror film simply will not make nearly as much money for them as their summer blockbusters. So why should they care ? I think people should start writting in to them, and complaining. Who knows, maybe they'll get so tired of hearing the cries of us "less important" horror fans, that they'll release something just to shut us up. No disrespect to PD, but Warner Bros. is pissin me off.

I'm not usually the one to come on here and rant about this film in a negative way, but when you've had blue balls for the past few weeks, you just say "fuck it". I need to see SOMETHING, cause I will only be jerked around for so long before I just completely lose interest. I don't come on this site looking to play cat and mouse as far as news is concerned. So either post something, or don't say you'll have something until the day you release it. We're putting our trust in you guys, and ultimately we're the ones who are going to pay to see your film, earn you your money back, and also help you turn a profit. I think it's only right that we get a decent idea of what we're getting. I hear a lot of shit about this film, (both good and bad) but I'm a visual learner, so SHOW me, don't tell me. Saying this movie id going to be great is all well and good, but the two pics released really tell us nothing. I'd like to have something tangable to prove that this will be a good film. I've stuck with you guys this far, and I wanna believe you guys are gonna do right by us, but I think it's time to give us something (not asking for the cure to cancer here) as a show of good faith. Like these other guys on this forum, many people come on here everyday looking for any little bit of news. Anything at all. They, like my self, have invested a lot of their time in this site, so if you can't show us something, at least update with some kind of news. Make something up for all I care, just give me something to raise my level of excitement which is steadily dropping.

Twitter Update.. bcfuller here us the deal we are working on releasing something but we are making sure it is just right. I ask him this.. DGo8@bcfuller When can we expect it?? isit coming this month? Hopfully he says yes

His response will be: You'll see.

I'm also pretty tired of checking this website for something. I'm done with checking and will wait to see a trailer at the theater! I still can't wait to see something....anything!

Soon.... maybe.... hopefully.... but probably not.

what's Brad's Twitter account? I want to check it out.

To Dunes Fan: There's a link to it within the post at the top of this page.

Here's an interesting tidbit. As most of you probably know, Platinum Dunes tried to get the rights to remake "Halloween" a few years back, before Rob Zombie stepped into the picture, and I guess took it out from under them. Earlier today, Bloody Disgusting reported that Dimension Films may seriously be going under, and eventually there possibly may be no Dimension. If that happens they will be forced to sell off the rights to their properties. That would mean that the rights to "Halloween" would be up for grabs. Now when I read this article, I never even considered that, or what that would mean. I was more worried how it would effect the new "Predators" film that's currently in production under Dimension. Then I went on Brad's twitter page, and someone made mention to him the fact that the rights to "Halloween" may be available in the near future, should Dimension kick the bucket, and asked if he'd try to get the rights. His response was "I would love to take a crack at that one". Of course he would. They tried to get the rights before, and they'd be foolish not to try and do so again, should they be made available. So a Platinum Dunes "Halloween" reboot could be a possibility in the future. What do you guys think of that ? In my opinion, Dimension hasn't put out one "Halloween" film so far that I felt was decent, or even worthy of being in the series. I don't think that property is in safe hands with them, and the last couple of "Halloween" films they put out weren't all that profitable (most notably the last one). So at this point, I'd be glad to see this property go to someone else, and I'm curious to see what PD would do with that franchise. All I can say is story first, and since Zombie's reboot was such a missed oppurtunity, if Platinum gets the rights, they should do something completely fresh. Don't Do a traditional reboot, reimagion the entire fucking thing. Pretty much, keep Micheal Myers, the mask, the jumpsuit, Haddonfield, Loomis, Laurie, and all that stuff, but make everything else completly original (and good). I think that's what Halloween really needs, plus a bit of a rest, so maybe wait a good while before making one, assuming you guys ever do get a chance to get the rights of course. Just my two cents on the matter. Eager to hear everyone else's opinions. No better way to help something happen than to show your interest, and vice versa.

to be honest, i'm glad that rob zombie took it 'cause he did an amazing job with it. Not saying that PD would've made a bad movie though.

who here is going to see SAW VI? i know i am, i love the saw movies. I kow it's the same story line for all the movies, but i just love the way they come up with new ways to die every movie it's great. I need blood and guts and body parts flying around to enjoy a good horror movie (i'm i sick for saying that..lol)

I think SAW is badly over rated!!

UPDATE bcfuller@DGo8 i still havent said what "it" is. about 5 hours ago from web in reply to DGo8 &... bcfuller@DGo8 i hope so. about 5 hours ago from web in reply to DGo8 This was in reply to me asking Brad this.. When can we expect it?? isit coming this month because the other day he said the following...here us the deal we are working on releasing something but we are making sure it is just right. I hope we get it this month i really do...but im glad they wanna make it as good as it can be..im still annoyed lol..& quite happy he wrote back to me lol

so r u gonna go see it or not?

"SAW VI" i mean

I wont because there not very good..i only like number two

I am getting so tired of coming 2 this damn site and twitter and Imdb 2 get NOTHING and 2 think I fought and took up 4 u guys only 2 have the haters be proven right when they say u guys dont give a FUCK about us...every week we get some bullshit ass excuse..It's coming,we gotta make it perfect,its gotta be A beautiful..shit u would think u guy's were remaking TITANIC!!..how the hell can we fight off the doubters when we have nothing 2 fight with??..that's like sending people 2 fight a war with no damn guns..And its sooooooo obvious Warner brother's could give 2 squirts of turtle shit about Noes they are all about potter and batman not that I can blame them..But since new line folded into them freddy has yet 2 get the same respect YET...Bob shaye would NOT have this shit!!...damn it warner either SHIT OR GET OFF THE DAMN POT!!!!

Im wit you i come on here everyday & Twitter im not goona be mad at brad doe..at least he wrote back to me and im glad he did shows he aint ignoring us...i beleav warner is the one to blame for this 100%..

Rape me.

I'm not a fan of Platinum Dunes at all, but I can respect what they're trying to do. I don't think they're just trying to cash in on these franchises. The only thing I've liked by them is their Texas Chainsaw remake. I know they've heard this a hundred times, but I think they need to stick to original material.

Brads just written to me on twitter saying he's working on it...in reply to me asking him isit coming this month.

To DGo8: How informative of him. :)

Least he replying

As much as I like the poster, I love those beautiful painted posters from the original films. Is there any chance we might see one for the new film?

I doubt we will...but its a new age in film..it wouldnt work i dont think

destromeng - you mean something along the lines of the poster produced for, The House of the Devil? I would love to see an Elm Street promo poster done in that treatment. I do like the artwork they have released so far though for the teaser poster. If only we had a small piece of footage to go with it. What’s everyone’s thoughts on a soundtrack or score for this movie? Im a huge, huge fan of Charles Bernstein’s work for the original. I usually listen to it on the train when im coming home form work. However recently i saw Drag Me To Hell at the cinema and it’s score was produced by Christopher Young who provided the music for Freddy’s Revenge - i think he would be a good candidate - what do ya think?

sorry Dstrohmeng just released i spelt your name wrong on that last post - apologies.

All the butt kissing on Brad's twitter page is amazing. Some guy nightmarenblades finally calls him out for being a liar and immediately tons of people flock to support Brad. How any real NOES fan cannot be disgusted with the way we've been treated is beyond me. We've been slapped in the face by not releasing the Comic Con trailer, lied to repeatedly about some great thing being released, and constantly just toyed with. Even though we were told something would be released by now we still can't even be given a hint as to what "it" is. We all pretty much assumed it's a teaser trailer but it could be more worthless dark pics. All we get is "you'll like it" or the lame "I'm busting my ass" Yeah ok Brad. You probably busted ass during the movie but it's done now. WTF are you doing that's so hard now? You talk like you're a construction worker or something. If you can make a two minute trailer two weeks after completing filming then you can put out something right now but you obviously just want to be a dick.

Well the decision to release or not to release something and when, is solely that of Warner Bros., I'm sure Brad would love to just release something tomorrow, but if the studio says no, then his hands are tied. I'm neither defending, nor trashing Brad here, just playing devil's advocate of sorts, and I agree, the teasing is getting annoying. If Brad would have just said at the beginning that his hands were tied, and he'd simply get somthing to us as soon as they give him the go ahead, and said nothing more of it until he had something for us, that would have been fine, and I would have completely understood that on his part. Instead he starts telling us to expect it in a certain time frame, then nothing is released. I'm not upset at the fact that they aren't releasing anything at the moment, they're still cutting together the film, which is a long and meticulous process (perhaps the most important part of post production), and it's better to have the film further along in the editing process before you cut together a trailer. Perhaps their plan is to skip the teaser altogether, and go strait to a theatrical. But as I was saying, it's not necessarilly the lack of a trailer being released that got me frustrated(although it would have been nice to have seen something by now), it was the fact that Brad prematurely stirred the pot, leading everyone to beleive that something would be released in a matter of weeks, only to release nothing. If there is as much work left to be done on this film as Fuller claims, then by all means they need to take their time and get this one right, and make this the best film possible. In the meantime, the teasing needs to stop. Once whatever "surprise" they're supposedly cooking up is ready to go, and they have a firm release date for it, then get us exited. No one appreciates cock teaseing, or in this case media teasing. That said, I'm sure they're working hard, and they're also beginning work (possibly even pre production) on "F13" part II at the moment so I think it's safe to say they're pretty swamped, so I'm not about to be a dick about it and give them a hard time as alot of other people are. Although I will say that whatever it is they release for "NOES", it better be damn good ! Otherwise keep up the good work, and don't let us down like Zombie did. I better not catch that guy on the streets, or else I might have to be going to jail after I get through with him. Nah, just kidding, I'd probably just tie his ass down, and give him a forced hair cut. Seriously, that mop is out of control, it's called shampoo, and a comb (and for god's sakes man, moisturize !)

0_0 Are they gonna update us or what ? Would really like to see a trailer soon. Oh, and about friday the thirteenth 2, you guys need to get some good actors, and make the story more believable. I mean, after killing so many kids around the camp year after year, you'd think the cops would catch on & start sending in the fucking marines or something. The remake was like the 12th film, so we've seen teenagers getting killed by this guy 12 times, it's getting old. So why not get some adults for the cast, I think everybody's tired of teen horror flicks. (= D

I know I'm not the most popular guy here, but I thought I'd let you all know that the trailer for this film is going to be in theaters 9/18/09 with Jennifer's Body. Here is a link to an official WB materials update that theaters get. http://exhibitor2.warnerbros.com/exhibitor/content/movie_ne ws/pdf/materials_sched.pdf

EggMan that is fucking awesome! I hope that link is legit. By the way if anybody can't get it to work you have to delete the space between the ne and ws before the /pdf/materials

EggMan, the link you gave isn't working.

Well, I feel like an arse. Sorry EggMan, next time I'll read down before I open my mouth. A few thoughts, if and I do mean if Fuller is releasing a teaser trailer I have a feeling we will have it by the end of next week. If he uses his head he will see he has to release it. Because the first person with a camera phone that goes to see Jennifer's Body is going to record that trailer and stick it on youtube. By going ahead and releasing it beforehand, he will make sure he has a good solid copy of it online and that will be the one people click on and his thunder won't get stolen by some kid with a cameraphone. Second, why Jennifer's Body? Because KG is in it? That movie looks terrible. The trailer for it tonight totally turned me off to it, and I won't be going to see it. There's motherfuckin snakes on this motherfuckin plane so to speak. (for those with ears to hear and all...)

To I AM THE EGG MAN: That's actually not true. Brad confirmed on his Twitter page just today this very thing. Someone asked, "is it true Warner Bros is release the NOES trailer with Jennifer's Body." His response was, "that is false."

However... that document does raise the question: Is Brad wrong?

i've been supporting Brad and been talking to him on twitter i do think this is warner stoping the trailer coming out..im also pissed off at brad for saying its coming next week & like month later we got nothing...im pissed!...i hope tha trailer is shown with Jens' body...im going to see it anyway so i hope tha trailer is there....and i hope that comment about kiss arse on twitter aint at me because im putting everythink he says back to me on this page..im nut arse licking at all.

Knifegloves can you really believe anything Brad says? If that link is not legit then somebody has a lot of free time on their hands. I think it is legit but luckily we only have to wait a week to find out. DG of course I wasn't talking about you.

Lol glad because im just as pissed off as everyoe else...& im gonna go see jens body now 100% just to get a chance to MAYBE see tha trailer

Brad said this in reply to someone asking why havent we seen anythink..(not 100%) trust me- i get it. but do you think i like this? I want to show you something more than you know. getting closer

Now that site Egg Man posted has updated and has removed the NOES trailer from Jennifer's Body and put in Ninja Assassin. I fucking give up. I was pumped up all day and ready to pay money to see the horrible looking Jennifer's Body just to see a damn trailer and now that is yanked out from under me.

I rest my case.... Brad was being honest after all.

I wouldn't be surprised if Warners is waiting until it gets closer to Halloween before releasing something. It would make sense, and the fact that they could probably have attached a teaser to any one of these horror films that have come out these last couple months, yet they chose to wait just further points to that possibility. So I'd say we should have something by the end of October. If we get into November, and still nothing, then I'm just going to throw my hands up and say fuck it, and just wait till it opens to find out anything about it, cause I'll have waited that long, and might as well wait a little longer. I swear this film better be fucking good, and yeah that is meant to put a little bit pressure on them, cause if you're gonna put this much time/work into a low budget horror film before even releasing kind of preview for it, you'd better not deliver a flop. This film is probably gonna have a lot of expectations to live up to when it opens now that Warner Bros. has been so inconsiderate towards the fans as far as the marketing is concerned (and that doesn't even include the expectations for it to live up to the original). Some films release some sort of teaser trailer before filming is even wrapped completely, so you'd think a film that is halfway through post production would be able to release something by now, and if they couldn't,there's still that Comic Con footage that is ready to go, and EVERYONE wants to see it. No good reason why WB couldn't have been gracious enough to have at least released that by now. So guess guess weel just have to wait and see, although we've been doing that for months now, and anything at this point would be like a fresh drop of rain on parched soil.

I'm thinking the trailer will come out with "SAW VI"

Most likely that's what they'll do, and I'm willing to wait. But if that is their plan, then I wish Brad would stop stalling, and just say "look, got something good for you guys, but don't expect it for another month or so". Then I can stop getting my hopes up until Halloween, and I won't be left with blue balls. But yeah, I think "SAW IV" would be the perfect time for them to release a trailer.

Damn, look at all those typos in my earlier post ! I'm really slippin' !

What Big Horror films are coming out in the run up to halloween?....i gotta feeling it will be with SAW aswell..but i dnt like saw..so i wud go just for that lool

You guy's this is NO substitute but somebody made a fake trailer and they copied the comic con trailer description that was posted here on bloody disgusting and it is REALLY good it kinda hit's a bit of the spot check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh1wSNOuhjA

i think they should just show the actul comic con trailer...i kno it was probly rushed and all but still come on

when does Pandorum come out, anybody know? I kinda wanna see that movie, i'm a fan of Sci-Fi horror.

Hmm that link that said nigtmare on elm street trailer would be shown with Jennifers body..and it quickly got changed to Ninja Assassin...i think it was changed so quick as they want to do it like a suprise trailer...& i find this funny...that two films would show the same trailer this is from the page... Jennifers body: Ninja Assassin Pandorum: Ninja Assassin Now i dont think Warner would do that i would be money on The trailer being shown with with jennifers Body looks like i'll will be going to see Jennifers Body 100% now

This sucks. The friggin Twilight trailer gets leaked online yet we are sitting here patiently waiting for the NOES trailer. There is no justice in the world.....

i cant beleav no1 at comic con as recored it..or even spoke about it...its like it never happend

Is the trailer or a sneek peek going to be shown at the 2009 scream awards on spike like how Friday the 13th was shown last year? and i am almost postive that the trailer will be shown with Jennifers body.

i know why would someone put a massive film like A Nightmare On Elm Street on that page unless they was told to??...they may of moved it to a bigger film (saw) as alot more people will see the trailer that way if its shown wit saw

:( Let me ask a very important question that I think is on everyone's mind (because apparently either Platinum Dunes, Warner Bros., or whoever either don't listen to us or just don't give a fuck), WHERE. THE. FUCK. IS. THE. MOTHER. FUCKING. TRAILER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

??????????????????????????????

Finally Brad came out with an answer to the question, "When will the trailer be released?" His answer was, "it's coming". That's great news everyone! Oh wait....

0_0 Hmmmm, I find it interesting that someone who "is working their ass off" can find the time to twitter so fucking much. I think it's a bunch of bullshit stalling. Maybe they are scared to show us something right now cause the movie sucks and they are worried we will realise it too soon. All of their other movies kinda sucked (except for the 1st Texas Chainsaw), they know it, we know it, and they know we know it. Maybe this one sucks to, and they want to wait as long as possible to show us a trailer cause they want to get us in the theatre quick, make a shit load of money, and run off with all their cash before we realise we got gyped (or jipped, however the fuck it's spelled). Notice Brad is always as vague and as coy as he can possibly be when asked about ANOES, so you do the math. Anyways I don't really give a shit cause it's just a movie, and comming on here every other day wondering if there's gonna be a new post or trailer or somethin' is just a waste of precious time. I'll come back when there is actually something to talk about, which I don't think will be anytime soon. So see you in late October, or later depending on how further incompetent you turn out to be Platinum Dunes. PEACE ! =D

Ever think about that maybe he's been told to keep quiet about any details? But I must admit.. it's frustrating to only be told "soon", "it's coming", "you'll see", etc. But I HIGHLY doubt it's because they think their movie will suck. There are gobs of people who would disagree with your opinions of their films. Though there are gobs that would agree. But I don't think PD puts films out thinking they suck and that's the reason for not showing anything. I think they just want to build up the anticipation as much as possible. But I do say that I don't think that releasing a teaser trailer (or the Comic Con trailer) would ruin anything so I don't understand why they haven't yet.

i agree wit you Knifegloves

That link says the NOES trailer will be out with a Zombieland on 10/2. I hope they don't screw us over again. Two weeks to go. http://exhibitor2.warnerbros.com/exhibitor/content/m ovie_news/pdf/materials_sched.pdf

and it says the trailer is 2 minutes and 3 seconds long. last time it didn't have any info for it. I'm thinking it might really happen this time!

Guess what everybody, "it's comming". Just thought I'd share that wonderfully vital piece of info with you. So what else is new ?

they wouldnt of put the length of it if it wasnt gonna appen...i cant wait i need to see the trailer!

but aint Zombieland from Sony Pictures...i didnt think they would advertise an other companys film ?

There are certain trailers that come attached to prints of movies, the ones that are a given no matter which screening you go to, and those are almost always same studio films. However, you can have trailers released with other studio films, look at Friday the 13th. It's trailer was shown with select prints of Saw V last year (tho for the record, it wasn't on the print I saw lol). If nothing else, Brad is slyly doing us a favor. All the talk of when the trailer comes out, despite how when the comicon footage was shown, we were like 9 months away from the film's release. All this speculation has taken up our discussion that the time until release is creeping up on us...it'll be here in all its glory before you know it.

i have a strong feeling it will be soon i dunno just i think its comming...i memba when i heard the shity audio...then when you hear freddy say.."read or not...here i come" omg...i hairs stand on my neck im so excited

I have a feeling that it may be attached to Zombieland. Reason being, from the very beginning, Brad denied the rumors that the trailer would be released with Jennifer's Body. He straight up denied it. However, he's being asked about it being attached to Zombieland and his responses have been, "Anything is possible" and "that is the rumor right now". Completely leaves it open to being true. So.. we may finally have the answer we've been looking for.

When does "Zombieland" open ?

i think he kind of rude when he answersl ike that...hes talking back like a robot lol..

I think he basically just confirmed that it will be attached to Zombieland. Someone asked him about it again and he said, "my thought is that sometimes rumors are rumors and sometimes they are true." He's not confirming it nor denying it but I think that was a huge hint that it will be attached to Zombieland. It releases on October 2nd.

i just received a text from brad on my phone through twitter. "Zombieland should have some interesting trailers on it." There you have it people! That i think is our confirmation for GO NOES 2010!!!!

STAND BY FOR TRAILER LIFT OFF, 10 days in counting!!!!! 10......................................................... ........................................................... .......

ooh shit! i gota go see zombieland i think its out a day b4 in the US you people gotta tell me what its like!!!!!!!!

Even more interesting zigy is a message brad put up an hour earlier saying sometimes trailers/teasers leak online beforehand.... Wonder what he is getting at there....

I don't know why he still feels the need to drop hints, because Bloody Disgusting already reported yesterday that the trailer would DEFINATELY be attached to "Zombie Land" (Not to mention that Warner Bros. page with the list of upcoming previews on it)so he might as well come out and just blatantly lay it all out on the table. Oh, and I really hope Platinum Dunes posts the trailer online either the day "Zombie Land" opens, or a day before because I'm not going to be able to go see it, but I'd still like to see the trailer. Cheers !

P.S: It's going to be a long 10 days.

Sorry, about today I was finishing concrete. Maybe, "The Salvaged" or just "Salvaged" could be your next project. But once A Nightmare on Elm Street is released and The next Friday the 13th. You should have the next sequels in hand. My Friday the 13th treatment will increase your foreign and domestic gross by 10-20 percent.

I was caught way off guard.

http://www.stephenking.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=212

I've been writing My Nightmare On Elm Street sequel all by my nightmares with Freddy In them in some form. Slow but sure. The concept is relevant in today’s society. And something I'm surprised no one ever came up with when they wrote sequels. Very terrifying. Freddy

shit iwasnt even gonna go and watch zombieland...but im 100% gonna now..its gonna drag so bad until Zombielands released...you all know its gonna be on the net within an hour of being shown in the cinemas lol

8 days!

Did anyone else get stuck behind that retarded pop-up on the main bloody-disgusting page? What the eff are they thinking about??????

It comes out on tha 9th of Oct in Tha UK when are you peoples from gettin a chance 2 see zombieland???...im only going to see it for the trailer lmao i wasnt even gonna see it lol

You could rejump another franchise that isn't a horror franchise. And the screenplay is already written. You could do a haunted house tale which is also already written.

Woody Harrelson is the shit. I wrote apart for him in my spaghetti. I still can't beleive he wasn't at least nominated for an oscar as Mickey. Takes alot of balls to instill fear in an audience.

Why not shoot two Friday the 13th films back to back. If you make another in 2 years it will cost more. The Friday the 13th franchise will never take in less then it's cost. If that was the case maybe they spent to much money. Maybe they are making Friday the 13th look to much like a comic. Why not go back to the roots of the genre and use 8mm what have you. Make make the films look like a Texas Chainsaw Massacre or The last house on the left. Gritty and real.

The last Friday the 13th was perfect. As long as they release them on Friday the 13th they should have no problem. I think thats were Halloween Fucked up. I wanted to see a Halloween film on Halloween. When it.s Halloween and the witches and ghouls are out adds to the mystic of going to see a Halloween film.

In regards to the "Friday The 13th" sequel, while I liked the remake, and thought it was better than any installment of the original series, it still had many flaws that need to be fixed if they do another. As anyone who makes regular visits to the Bloody Disgusting discussion boards, and forums know, the horror fan community is not a forgiving lot. To me, I felt like the remake had a bunch of characters that you didn't care about, you couldn't relate to them, they were unrealistic, and I don't know anyone like these people. They were like charachatures of what the writers think young people are like. Also, I thought the movie was a little too nastalgic of the original franchise to a certain extent. It's like they took everything from the original series that they thought defined it (such as stupid kids, nudity, sex, drugs, ect.) and turned them up to 100 %. They also went as far as to recycle old kills, and the film came off as a bit of a greatest hits compilation. When people go back and think of movies like "Friday the 13th" they don't remember the cheesy dialogue, or the tits, they remember Jason, and I feel like Jason took a back seat to those things in the first one. Not that I don't enjoy a nice rack here and there, but when you let that shit infest the entire movie to the point where you see more of that than Jason because you think that's what the audience wants to see, you make a big mistake. For the record, I think Platinum Dunes honestly tried their best to please the fans, but they gave us something they thought we wanted, but we really didn't, and that's where they went wrong. There's a Bloody Disgusting pod cast on I-Tunes called Double Murder, and they did a review of "Friday the 13th" that I thought pretty much summed up all the problems it had, and Brad or the writers of this new one should check it out if they haven't already. Not so they can hear a bad review of their film or anything, but the whole point of disscussion boards like this is so that the fans can state their opinions, and Brad said himself that he comes here to get input so he can give us something closer to what the fans would want. Well, that podcast goes over a lot the problems everyone seems to have with the film, so what better way to get intouch with what people liked and disliked about the film so that you don't make the same mistakes twice ? But that's all the constructive critisism I have for the movie. Also, and I know I've said this before, but why the fuck does law enforcement never go after Jason ? You can only kill a bunch of teenagers at the same camp site over and over so many times before they send the fucking army after you or something. I'm not trying to offer any specific story ideas, but please explain that shit, because that was a big problem I had with the original series, it was laughably unrealistic. Oh, and why have teenagers at all ? Haven't we already seen that a million times ? I wouldn't mind seeing more mature characters, or adults in the next one. And make them realistic ! No locking people in an underground tunnel, and some guy looking for his sister, cause if that was an attempt at getting the audience to sympathise with the characters, then it was a failed one. Anyways, just my two cents. Cheers !

Brad posted dis on twitter.... late tonight freddy is coming is it finally gonna be shown???? cnt wait

Something I came up with watching Friday the 13th part 2. Who ever directs should use the same lens and camera tech that Stanley Kubrick used for Barry Lyndon. On all of JASON's POV shots. So you show the audience what he sees with only one eye. In effect the opposite of 3-D. Barry Lyndon looks like a flat painting in a sense.

Keepin It Reel - you should read JASON : Friday the 13th. The screenplay I read. Every kill is original.

I mean wrote.

I have one at 90 - 92 pages depending on how you space it. I also have one at 130 pages.

You should shoot the next Friday the 13th on a low budget.Help kids and save millions. Great horror always has low budgets, even science fiction.

www.couragecamps.org I worked here the summer after I graduated. To help kids and make them smile. Show inner city kids what a lake looks like with out concrete. I went because of Meatballs and in some way Friday the 13th and Indian Summer, etc.. We called it camp............

Who gives a crap about Friday the 13th!! This is a blog about A Nightmare on Elm Street! Jason sucks and Freddy rules. Jasons kills are always the same and so boring, I fall asleep watching Friday the 13th. All the jason movies always have the same plot and stupid kills.

I give a crap about "Friday the 13th", and so do many other people. This blog is about Platinum Dunes and their films, and that just so happens to include "F13". I think you missed the point. I was saying that they need to stop doing the same old boring things with the series, and recycling the same plots, so all you did was back up my statement.

The teaser will be released on Myspace at midnight tonight. Fuck yes !!! I thought this day would never come.

The teaser will be released on Myspace at midnight tonight. Fuck yes !!! I thought this day would never come.

Hmm yeah well if you read this blog brad is talking about noes, not f13, sooo.. let's stay focused, trailer comes out tonight!! ! Fuck yeah!! I'm going to make myself wait until Friday when zombieland is released. I want to see it anyway, but it will be nice to see the trailer on the big screen with surround sound.

I can't really tell much from the trailer. It looked pretty polished, and visually artsy I guess, but you don't really see Freddy until the end and you can't even see him that well. But from what I could tell, he looked more like the Mummy than Freddy. I don't know, I'll need to see more before I make up my mind as to whether I like what they've done with Freddy's look. And what the fuck was with his voice ?

thanks for adding the new trailer for NOES!!.. it was worth the wait!.. much appreciated!.. i only have one complaint, feddy's face looks CGI??.. why ooh why did you do that?.. judge for yourself - www.myspace.com/trailerpark

I was happy with it. Jackie made it his own with the voice. There is a lot that I think Jackie can do with that. I've watched it four or five times now, paused it a few times to really check things out and I have to say so far very satisfied with what I see. April is too damn far away. Looks like Brad was right, he gives us the trailer six months in advance and now I'm itching to see the final product. Oh, April 10th come quickly!

im excited,it looks very good. i enjoy the idea of snow in a dream sequence, its new to the series. im happy there is a bath tub scene... BUT... PLEASE tell me im just seeing things and freddy's face isnt CGI? i mean really...i REALLY REALLY REALLY fucking hope thats just how the trailer came out and it isnt CGI all the time. that would REALLY fucking ruin it. there are countless professional make up artists who got into that particular career BECAUSE of the makeup work on the original nightmare series. jesus i really hope he's not cgi the whole time. i remember brad saying a while back that they really wanted him to look like a burn victim, and having that knowledge paired with something i read the other day about him not having a nose or something, im scared... im more scared of that being true than i think i will be seeing the movie. also, im thinking right now about how all the pictures thus far we've gotten of freddy, his face has been blurry, you know? like they didnt have time tomake the CGI effect or something for them, or were trying to keep it a secret. goddamnit. the end of the trailer looks REALL CGI. ok enough negativity. Jackie's voice he created for Freddy is REALLY cool. im glad they have the levatating death for tina, that was always my favorite. her being dragged up a wall freaked the shit out of me as a child and I LOVE IT!!!! also, i hope that Kyle Gallager kid, fucking awesome in Jennifer's body by the way, i have a really good feeling about his part in the movie. though, i am gonna say this right now, from the looks of it, not too sure im going to have nearly the hots for new Nancy as i have for the past 9 years for Nancy...(im 21, do the math for when i first say elm street) ok well im goddamn giddy. goodnight

I love it...we all think the voice is weird because its only bin played by one man...i love it cant wait for more

i've edited some of the stills...so go on my profile n look on my album called " random " u can see him more clearly

Looks very good , i cant wait to see it. thanks Brad :) good work 1, 2, Freddy's coming for you

Finally an elm street film to look forward to, freddy back to the darkside. Loving jackies take on krueger, the messed up lisping voice is a good idea as though he can hardly talk proper from the burns, id be disapointed if he sounded just like englund. f*** april is too far away!!!

The trailer was cool for da most part, but WHY. THE. FUCK. DID. HIS. FACE. LOOK. LIKE. THAT ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? IT LOOKED VERY FACE, AND CGI, IT WASN'T SCARY AT ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT BETTER NOT BE HOW HIS FACE LOOKS FOR DA WHOLE FUCKIN MOVIE CAUSE IT LOOKED REAL CRAPPY. FAIL !!!!!!!!!!!!

meant 2 say "IT LOOKED VERY FAKE". LOL !

Why the fuck would Freddy speak with any kind of speech impediment brought on by his burning... WHEN HE IS A FUCKING GHOST/SPIRIT/DEMON/ENTITY????? ? Wouldn't he just speak in the voice he had before the torching, if he is powerful enough to INVADE FUCKING DREAMS? Seriously. You idiots are brainless and pathetic excuses for "fans". This looks generic as hell.

Brainless and pathetic excuses for fans? MadMime, if you don't have anything nice to say.... Let's get to this first. The trailer was great. It's so far living up to my expectations. The face isn't CGI. They have a makeup guy and they were trying to go for a realistic burn instead of the pizza face Freddy we were getting in the last few films. As for being pathetic fans for liking this, were we all pathetic when we stuck it out with Dream Child or Freddy's Dead which was an absolute joke? No, fans will stick with it through thick and thin, and this is shaping up to be a really good reworking of the series. To me, being brainless and pathetic is getting so worked up over a speech imediment that you have to insult people because you don't like it. Would you rather Freddy didn't speak like Michael or Jason? They are zombie/demon/entities and they don't say a word. Or are all monsters supposed to have perfect vocabulary and all sound like Sean effin Connery like Pinhead? I think there is quite a bit that Jackie can do with that voice. Sometimes its the little things that make it all the more frightening. Take what he was saying to that girl in the trailer. If he would have come off all malovent and hateful and demonic like Englund in Nightmare 1 there, the effect wouldn't have been the same. But JEH's Freddy almost sounded sorry for the effed up things he was about to do to that girl. And that makes it all the more scary in my opinion. MadMime, if that voice is the only thing that you can find to complain about, then all in all, I think even you have to agree that this movie has the potential to bring a dead series back to life. Get over it.

Where's knivegloves, egg man and keepin it real? I was wondering what their take on the trailer was.

I really hate the voice and I don't really care for the face either. I think they should have just kept the pizza face. Englund has probably raised the bar so high though that I would be a little disappointed regardless of who tried to replace him. I still liked the trailer overall though and will be there for sure opening night.

Fire Marshall Bill wearing a Freddy glove knock-off having "potential to bring a dead series back to life"? I don't think so, bub.

No if they still done the pizza face freddy you would all say its nothing new...there just taking what Wes Cravens look and making there own...like there jst making a cheap robert englund mock up...as i said go on my profile n look at tha pics..you can get an idea of what he's whole face looks like. As for the voice..im not won over yet but there making it real...i mean if you had your body burnt n you lips fry'd you would speak normaly..i'l have to listen to more before i make any more comments on it.

there allways someone saing bad things about the movie, but if they do all the things like the 1ª movie you ill be saing, the movie is a copie not a remake. Remake is doing e new version not a copie. I like the trailer and i look forward to see. nice work guys.

im wit you^^^

The Nightmare On Elm Street trailer was finally released at http://mashable.com/2009/09/28/nightmare-on-elm-street-rema ke-trailer/. Not sure why they haven't updated this site yet. Enjoy!

http://mashable.com/2009/09/28/nightmare-on-elm-street-rema ke-trailer/ Sorry, previous post had a copy-paste error.

Remove the space in the link to get it to work. Not sure why it keeps posting wrong.

Yeah, Freddy may very well speak like that if he were a real human burn victim... but you know what, HE ISN'T HUMAN ANYMORE. He is a ghost that has the power to invade dreams. WHY WOULD HE CONTINUE SPEAKING THAT WAY? That is beyond stupid.

So Platinum Dunes wants "realistic" okay... a spirit/entity/what have you with the power to invade dreams and murder people in them would REALISTICALLY be able to alter his voice in any way of his choosing. I somehow doubt he would be locked into speaking through injuries sustained as a human being. I may be a tad harsh, but Platinum Dunes drew this upon themselves with the overemphasis on "realism" in regard to Fred's burns. "Realistic" is not having a powerful, evil spirit looking and speaking like Jim Carrey as Fire Marshall Bill. They don't want to make Freddy laughable... they have done a piss poor job. Dark? Not quite. Scary? lol. If you're a little baby, sure.

What you guys need to think about is what direction Sam is taking the film to. First of all people will be quick to say "Oh its nothing like the old makeup" and "Robert is the only freddy". I think all OF YOU need to sit back and think about the project as a whole. The original nightmare on elm street makeup and freddy were and will always be the Excellent, it was what gave us this iconic character and made us love the character that it is. Hell i love the whole nightmare on elm street franchise, but as the sequels continued the films were shit, c'mon they were. but we loved freddy soooo much we didnt care. but in terms of story it was shittt cacka poo poo. Nothing can take away the original from the remake. lets get this straight. But have an open mind, its making freddy darker as he should be and will shit up ppl as freddy should be known to do. You wont see the new freddy getting mtv music features i can guarantee that! The makeup...... The producers have mentioned that they wanted to create freddy as a realistic character, a real burns victim. Which i think they have done a good job on. I read a past interview where they did a couple of takes on makeup to see if it would work by making him like the old freddy. But why would they want to do that in the first place, this is a remake and remake means remake! Plus lets get things into perspective the freddy makeup in the old films got worse and worse as sequels spawned off. The Character...... I love robert England and will always love his iconic take of the character. Heck.... this is the man who made freddy who we all associate to. To get Robert in the new flick would of been ace, but to make a re-imagining of the story would not of worked. thus we get Jackie. If the producers got any old Actor to play as Mr Freddy, Jackie is the MAN, look at his past films and tell me this guy cannot act. because he CAN I think he will do an excellent job on "HIS" take of freddy and get us all scared again. Robert E has even congratulated that Jackie is taking over him, and praised how much of a good actor he is. so if the old Freddy can praise the new Freddy, we are all in good hands. Plus those stupid rumors that billy bob thornton was going to be freddy was completely STUPID. No way i would of believed that crap and the person who let that one out should be shot for thinking so, Platinum dunes....... Just becuase it says Michael Bay does not mean he made it. The dude has too much money and wants to make more.Fair play, who doesnt like money here, i sure as hell do too. The man directing Samuel has done an amazing job on music videos (google him) and from what i see in the trailer, he has done beyond what i have imagined it could look like in the new film. The colours used in the trailer look immense, and the shots look nice too, rethink and look back at the trailer and see for yourself. Look at the dream with snow involved! how wonderful and eery did that shot look, We havnt had any snow with the other past nightmares, and this one looked sickkkk. And the way the filters used dont look cheap either, so two thumbs up on that one. the voice........ Ok ok everyone is going to go nuts over this also, at first i was like hmmmmm ok a new voice, it could work, but the more and more i think of it, it does work. Damn freddy had his face burned and prob would talk like that in a real life scenero. Dont be quick to judge as the film does come out next year, so more work will be done, and early screenings will telll if the crowd like the new voice. Finsh....... Before you bash me, This is my opinion, and mine only and wanted to voice what i thought!So next time you say its not the same, please back up your words. Your entitled to your own opinion so shout out why. I cannot wait to see the end result as Freddy Kruger was the first real film where i was scared to bits as a kid and have grown up loving everything good and bad about the franchise. So to see a new imaginging is bringing my favourite character back on the big screen, as i am getting sick and tired of all these shitty so called horror films, like Saw! Saw 1 was good, but i honestly think it will get the point where i am old and grey and they will still be bringing out new saw films. errrgggggghhhhh please stop! Last thought (lol i feel like jerry springer lol) Look back at the original Tim burton 1984 Batman, when Michael Keaton was announced as the lead, ppl went NUTS thinking that we would not be serious enough to play Bruce Wayne as his past films were comedic. And look at the job he did in both Films. AMAZING. and lets not get into detail with Christian Bales performance,....... he was ace and reinvented the whole batman series all over again.which gave us a better sequel and the great acting skills of Joker played by Heath Leadger. Heck i could go into detail with the whole Old joker verus new! ppl didnt think heath would be able to top Jack N performance, and he smashed it. I think just wait till the film opens, have a clear mind and be grateful that freddy is back. AND if the film blows,........ well expect me ranting on how stupid i am for thinking it will work, but i honestly feel that this wont be the question. Happy dreaming ppl

TheMadMime, just a question you have already seen the movie? Why are you being critical about the movie you haven't see. you are so closed mind to the change's. Can you do better? think about that.

Platinum Dunes vision of A Nightmare on Elm Street is perfect. or A Nightmare on ELM ST. Fucking loved the trailer. Perfect. I have the perfect concept for a sequel. Oh, well back to pouring concrete.

Again, yes... Freddy would speak like that if he were a real, live human burn victim. But he is not human. As a ghost, it is absolutely silly for him to take on a speech impediment brought on by a human injury. And all the cries for "realism" going into a horror/fantasy franchise... completely wrong-headed. Essentially, Freddy will be just your everyday, generic modern horror villain. Danny, yes I could definitely make a better Nightmare movie. Get Englund on the phone, and I'll show you a real Nightmare movie.

Man you are so good, why platinum dunes don't choose you for director? How can you direct better then Sam if you can't see this in another perspective?

TheMadMime, where did u get a copy of Rules In The Dreamworld As A Ghost handbook? I mean how can u say freddy can do this or that, this isnt the old series, if freddy was capapble why doesnt he changes the way he looks too, instead of a charred mess. Obviously he cant!

I can’t belive all the bitchin and moanin over the one line he gives in this trailer. Englund’s Freddy voice changes about to 2/3 times in the original. Some folks need to get a grip. This was just a teaser, at least wait for the 2nd or even better, reserve judgement when the movie is released.

Ultimok I couldn't agree more. I find it funny how people are just popping out of the woodworks now that the trailer has been released but haven't said boo on this site beforehand. And the idiotic negativity about something as danny666 pointed out that they hadn't even seen yet is amazing. In the first one he had a high pitch girlish giggle while he was chasing Nancy through the boiler room when she fell asleep in class. Don't hear any complaints about that. As I said, not all horror movie monsters have to have perfect fucking diction. They aren't all Pinhead. MadMime your nitpicking and making yourself look foolish in doing so. Are people really going to say "Well gee, I was going to go see the remake of A Nighmare On Elm Street but Freddy's lisp just isn't going to work for me." Your grasping at straws my friend. If you don't like it, don't go see it. End of story.

Fwanger i agree. Judgjement just when the movie is released. i hate people being critical when haven't seen the movie.

the trailer is f***ing amazing

www.nightmareonelmstreet.com

Awesome trailer. I for one like the new makeup and speech impediment. They have to give Jackie's take on the character unique quirks or otherwise he wouldn't be able to stand on his own so as not to be constantly compared to Englund. This is a new take, and while I want the character to be familiar, I don't want them to be hindered by making a carbon copy of Englund's portrayal. I mean, did anybody ever stop to think that, yeah, maybe he could change his voice, but then again, if he can change it, why still appear burned? It's part of the visage, it's not a hinderence to him anymore that he's dead, it's simply part of what he utilizes to scare his victims. But then, I'd bet that anyone who complains about this also bitched about Jason's subconscious fear of water in FvJ...which again, totally wasn't a problem at all but it went over the heads of a very unfortunate majority.

:( So you sayin' you actually thought Freddy VS. Jason was good ? Cause that movie was a pile of shit ! =D)

What was wrong with Freddy vs. Jason. It delivered what is promised, which was....Freddy vs. Jason. Maybe you didn't like it, but a lot of people including myself did. Maybe next time just say "Cause to me that movie was a pile of $hit!"

who or what convinced Warner Bros. to release the NOES trailer so soon..lol

the trailer is probably going to change over time (long time between now and april) we might have a few more trailers...i hope so anyways

I would love to know why all the hating from A LOT of people? We all should be glad that there is going to be another NOES movie in the first place. There are things that I don't like about this remake, but the good far out weighs the bad. Brad and his partners in this movie aren't perfect, buy they are fans of NOES and they are doing what they feel is the best for the viability of the series. If you all think that you can do better, then jump right into the director's chair, and let's see what you can do. Freddy got burned alive, so he will be scarred, and have a lisp when talking. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET BURNED ALIVE. Your lips aren't flame resistent. I like Freddy looking more realistic. He isn't "pizza face" Freddy, because that was Robert Englund. I will miss Robert playing Freddy, but for the love of christ, lets give Jackie a chance. AND, we are lucky that they even decided to release a trailer teaser soo early in the first place. Way to go Brad and team. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

you know what sux about this movie coming out on April 30th (for me), i'm gonna be in Montréal that weekend for a hockey tournament...lol (and i'm one of those people that has to see a good movie on opening day/night u know..lol.)

I liked every Friday and Nightmare there is. I don't think Dunes has messed up on anything. Looks to me like they took the original and enhanced it. I had my doubts at firt but I knew they were going in the right direction when they hired Haley. Everything is perfect for the franchise and to reboot it. I always wondered why his face was never burn together like Johnny Trumans hand. Skin melts I've witnessed it first hand. They should even have a weezing sound come out of threw the holes in his cheeks. They should also use some new organic sounds for freddy like dragging a power traul across a concrete floor with rocks. Perfect for the glove. Like I've said I have the perfect concept for the folling sequel . I'm going to start writing it after I wrap up my spaghetti and Gangsters.

Now that they've finally released the trailer, they need to release that Comic Con footage. I really want to see that, and now that everyone has seen the official trailer, showing the Comic Con footage wouldn't spoil anything. P.S. : Now that "NOES" is wrapped, and you guys are starting on a "F13" sequel, take your time and get it right this time. Originality and beleivability, can't stress those enough. Cheers !

I'd imagine that the Comic-Con stuff was composed of at least 75% of what is in the final trailer. A few quick shots here and there to add some length to it for this trailer, plus the noticeable omission of the "Ready or not, here I come" line, and the addition of the big face reveal at the end, otherwise, we've probably seen most of what was shown there. And to Black Stallion, I realize a lot of people didn't like FvJ. I am not one of those people. Sure, I recognize the faults with the film, and yeah, it could have been so much more. But I'm happy with it overall. Plus had they waited any longer, we probably wouldn't have gotten to see a Freddy vs Jason with Rob playing the role, and I for one am happy that the big brawl got to be his sign off for the role...that factor gives a whole new meaning to the last shot of Freddy winking at the camera.

yeah, if u guy's are planning a sequel to Friday The 13th, it better be off the charts, "WE" want a kick ass horror flick.

come up with a story-line or something, 'cause with obviously no more Halloween movies coming are way, we need to get are satisfaction from Jason & Freddy.

I wanna see the bit on the comic con trailer when he says..Ready or not here i come...he sounds so kool lol

The Dunes boy's look at the least to have made yet another solid remake. At the very least they at least give us a slick film with excellent production value. I think the new Freddy will grow on people, but it will just take time. This will be PD best film to date when it comes out due to the fact that this villain is argueably the most diverse horror character ever created, with endless creative storylines and pathways. By the way, why can't we have a Freddy vs. Jason Rematch with Englund still as Freddy, why can't 3 different franchises exist in the one universe, i mean the x-men is the best example, or the up coming Avengers movie, it's the same princible??

i think that looking at what we've ALL seen regarding this new trailer and what we've all read on different sites here and there, i think that this trailer has been the best thing to come out of Hollywood in YEARS!!!!!.. i think that the movie will be an AWESOME addition to the horror franchise, and this is only my opinion, but i feel that this is gonna be Platinum Dunes's BIGGEST and BEST film to date!.. i applaud what i see in the trailer and i hold it very high above anything else that i've seen lately!.. sure enough i've complained about the posibility of Freddy's face looking CGI?.. well, i've gone back, and back over the trailer and watched it soooo many times, i now just see a kick-ass movie that i can't wait for!!.. Good job to everyone involved.. erm, has anyone seen eggman lately?.. HAHAHA! Oooh and one other thing, has anyone noticed that the guy who played a prison guard in the 'Shawshank Redemption' is the guy responsible for throwing the petrol bomb through the window that burns Freddy?.. seems like there's gonna be some good actors in this movie too??.. April 30th is my wife's birthday, guess where i'm taking her?.. TO SEE NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET!.. lol.

haha..that'll be a great treat to give ya wife:)...i fort hes face was CG at first but its not it looked it...but its just the shot i wanna see him head on so i cant judge if i fully like it or not..but its going to a while for people to get used to this freddy as he's not a dick that says stupid jokes or acts like a dick (you know what freddy films i mean)this will be more gritty..evil..and real.. i agree this will be the best & biggest thing for platinum dunes...and it will be a blockbuster 100%... what about Freddy Vs Jason re-done?...maybe i donno lets see about that 1 lol

Spruce it wouldn't quite be the same thing as X-Men or Avengers, as with those films, yeah they are separate and coexisting, but the keyword there is coexisting: they all follow a shared continuity. I don't think film audiences are ready to see different continuities running simulataneously within a film franchise yet.

I'm just glad they are taking back Freddy back to his roots and birth. Like 1,2, and 3. Dark and cynical.

I just bought "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (2003) today on Blu-Ray, can't wait to watch that in Hi-Def..lol - so far (in regards to Platinum Dunes best movies), so far i would have to say that it's "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movies and i'm sure that "A Nightmare On Elm Street" will be an amazing production for them. The wrost i would have to say would be "The Hitcher".

:( Well thanks for lettin' us all know that dunes fan, should I go alert CNN ? LOL ! =D)

your so funny "Black Stallion"..lol, should be a stand-up comedian..lmao

Transfer on TCM 03 Blu-Ray is phenomenal. You're in for a treat Dunes Fan.

i haven't seen the trailer yet and i am not going to see until this weekend when i go to the theaters. But i do have a question. does freddy's so called lisp in the movie sound like soft and childish? Is he being like quiet and weird or is it an evil lisp it's really hard for me to picture... also how long is the trailer and do you guys think they will have another trailer other then this one?

Someone posted requesting that I comment on my thoughts of the trailer. Well... here they are: I absolutely loved it! I laugh at TheMadMan for saying that Freddy shouldn't have a speech impediment at all because he's no longer human. Did it ever cross your mind that if that were the case, then why does he still look burned??? If he still suffers the visual affects from the fire, why not have it affect everything else (duh... his ability to speak)? I find it HIGHLY strange that you complain about a speech impediment but don't complain about the fact that his face still looks burned even though he's no longer a human. I absolutely love the new look. It took some getting used to but I've looked at it for a long time and I think it's amazing. The deep openings in his face are so deep you can see his teeth through the holes in his cheek. His skin is completely melted and the holes reveal bloody deep tissue in his face and that's just repulsively awesome! I love everything about it so far and being a huge fan of Jackie Earle Haley's work, I cannot wait to see how evil, dark, and cruel he can be as Freddy. The last scene of the trailer is creepy because this girl is terrified as ever and Freddy is tormenting her slowly and his facial expression shows absolutely no emotion whatsoever. Again... I am loving what I see so far. It's fresh... new... and dark once again. Bring it on!

HAHA knifegloves.com..i love this... "I absolutely loved it! I laugh at TheMadMan for saying that Freddy shouldn't have a speech impediment at all because he's no longer human.

Great trailer. Loved it.

And thats the bottom line cos Knifegloves said so! :-)

Firstly, I’d like to say one of the reasons I stopped coming to this forum and complaining about this disrespectful re-make of an utter classic, is because all our words are falling on deaf ears. The place is full of idiots, with a few exceptions from intelligent ppl that have seen your previous rubbish and taken note that you do nothing but steal. You’ve proved, after stating yourself about all the problems you’ve had with fans against this movie, that you weren’t going to listen and actually didn’t care at all what a huge majority of fans thought at all. Secondly, after I learnt you were taking our complaints and suggestions – which weren’t meant to make your film better, but to criticise your original ideas, not steal ours too – that was another reason. If you’re so good at your job, why do you need fans to tell you how to make a film? You’re basically saying that you won’t listen to the fans complaints but you’ll use our ideas to make “your” film better. People aren’t going to return to forums constantly to be ignored and spoken down to. People will now just not go and see your re-make. What I’ve always had a huge problem with is the fact that you keep trying to make out these films are your ideas or a “re-boot”, I’d like to know just what your definition of a reboot is, because from the screenplay and even the trailer, all you’ve done is steal other Writer’s and directors ideas and are trying to pass them off as your own. You have an amazing character and you still have to take Tina’s death scene and Nancy’s bath scene (I’m sure there will be plenty more from NOES 4 for instance.) Also, why are your films always advertised under the original films title? Rob Zombie at least has the decency, because I think HE probably does love the Halloween films, to put his name before the title so as not to mislead any punters. The reason you haven’t put the title as ANOES 2010, or Platinum Dunes NOES is because you’re cashing in on one of the most successful, if not , THE most successful modern franchise and trying to pass it off to younger viewers who might not have seen the original, as a film you’ve created. Another subject you’ve never commented on is why you haven’t spoken to Wes Craven – this for me is the defining point in why I will be boycotting this film. Even if you know you won’t get his blessing, it’s common decency to contact the man who created these characters which you’ll be making money from and at least say “I’m sorry you’re not happy about this, but it’s something I really want to do.” You don’t have to tell him the truth, that you actually don’t have an original idea in your head, for example, and that a true fan (which your obviously not) wouldn’t want to re-make their favourite horror films. It’s a complete contradiction, how do you justify uttering such nonsense? Again, I’ll go back to the point that Freddy is not like Dracula, Frankenstein or even Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees. Freddy stands alone as a character that was created on film by an actor, the other characters you refer to are either from literature or where masks, they have no personality – it looks like you’ve stripped away Freddy’s personality as well, so I guess he’ll be like the rest now. Another question unanswered, why don’t you want to create new characters for this generation? Most of us can say we have a horror villain of our generation, all this poor lot is getting are badly made re-makes, the only good thing coming from it all is people then start going back to the original movies. You say about original horror, where is it? You’re obsessed with your “re-boots.” A brand name, successful horror (which you’re making for a new generation LOL) is bound to out shadow a new film with new ideas, because everyone has heard of these classics and the villains. The Unborn was full of imagery from other famous horrors such as The Exorcist, it also received an overwhelmingly negative reaction from critics – which just adds to the fact that you’re scared to take chances on original horror (because your actually not that good at it IMO) when you know you can get a huge opening weekend with your remakes. The one thing you do have completely right is that by you re-making these films, it doesn’t invalidate the original. In fact, thank-you in a way, because your attempts at art (what a joke coming from someone who cannot create, but only copy) are usually so bad, it brings a huge fanbase back to the original movies. What you are doing is tainting the memory of these films and misleading ppl into thinking the movies are new. Your version of Friday The 13th has got to be one of the most dire horror movies of the last 10 years; the trailer was edited to make it look promising. You’ve done the same again with nightmare probably, but ppl will get fed up of your re-makes. A backlash will hit you, and I hope it hits you hard. For myself and many, many other fans though – even if this re-make was Oscar worthy, you have gone lower than low by knowingly stealing another ORIGINAL artist’s material and not even asking their blessing. In fact you have gone a step worse because you are obviously fully aware that Wes Craven didn’t want HIS film remade. You have no respect therefore for true talent. Yes, he sold the rights, well maybe it’s about time he fought to get them back to stop crooks like you guys. The main reason ppl were so angry about what you were and are doing was because of the way you treated Robert Englund as well. You can come out with all the nonsense you like, but he created the character of Freddy with Wes Craven – it’s been his entire career and he would have wanted to play the part. It’s obvious that you put him in a position where it wasn’t possible, hence him not joining your motley crew to make a cameo. The way you have treated Craven is beyond disrespectful – you say you love his film, the characters and story he created, but you completely ignore his wishes. More importantly again, you ignored the wishes of thousands of fans, you are quoted here as saying you could see all the dislike for this classic being re-made by you, and yet you didn’t care – because all you care about is yourself and money. There is no artistic integrity in stealing others ideas and passing them off as your own. The fans who won’t be watching this re-boot have left these forums weeks ago when they knew their words were being ignored. If you have no respect for Wes Craven why would you have respect for strangers? The only reason this forum looks better is because the brown nosers have stayed around to kiss your ass. If you want true feedback you would accept the negative, but I honestly don’t think you’ll do anything for anyone but yourself and your business. All the trailer was, was iconic scenes we've all seen before and utter proof that the ridiculous script of Freddy playing the victim only to turn out the villain has been filmed. His voice is hilarious and I'm sure will be very amusing when parodies start up of it. I'm sure if Platinum Dunes did a big shit and filmed it, half the people on these forums would say it was good - they'd probably even pay to see it if you took an iconic killer from an amazing franchise and put him in the background. Keep up the good fight - don't let these theives of cinema creators win. Boycott their crap rip-off's.

Blah blah blah...

Well Knivegloves, when you don't have any answers, I guess all you can say is "Blah blah blah..." otherwise you might have to entertain an original thought, which obviously, fans of Platinum Dunes are incapable of, just like the company they back.

Madman is completley correct, unless they're completley changing the mythology of Wes Craven's A Nightmare on Elm Street, which they are not as is evident by their trailer. Then, NO, Freddy would not be talking with a lisp - he's trying to terrify his victims - they might be tempted to giggle at his lisp. If he has the power to do anything in the dream world, if he's a demon with all these powers - a power great enough to kill living people, and he can mold the situations they are in etc etc. Then why would he leave himself with a lisp - of course he'd leave the burns - to scare his victims, but a lisp isn't scary - it's comical! And I find it very odd that on this forum there are so many supporters who don't even see anything in the trailer they don't like. On other forums, and highly regarded ones, such as Fangoria, ppl are furious about the film, others willing to give it a chance have found things they don't like the look of - very worrying that so many ppl here are blindly following this company. Anyone would think they had an ulterior motive behind it. The arguments placed here aren't even structured, most of the ppl defending this company and it's films, sorry - it's rip off's of other's original films, are simply insulting ppl with a valid argument or acting like young teenagers. Saying things such as "I know it'll be brilliant." How do you know that ppl? We who are opposed to the film have a valid argument for saying it will be bad, firstly it's a remake so by definition alone it's an inferior film. Secondly, Platinum Dunes have made rubbish re-make after God awful re-make, even more reason to argue that this film will be no different. Oh and to the person commenting that Heath Ledgers performance was better than Jack Nicholson's as the Joker, I have to completley disagree. Although Heath did put in a good performance, it was only praised so much because he died. Sad but true. In fact, his character was nothing like that of the Joker's. Nicholson's version was true to the graphic novels, Ledger's was out of nowhere. So, the only way ppl will think Jackie's Freddy is better than Englunds original performance is if Jackie drops dead.

There’s two and half minutes of my life i ain’t gonna get back.

No one can silence The Mad Mime, so don't flatter yourself. No, I'm not "just excited to have a new NOES film in theaters". A NOES film of the original franchise, yes I would be stoked. But this Freddy and this new franchise I have ZERO emotional or nostalgic attachment to. Fuller has made it perfectly clear that he has no interest in making the film like the original series (yet at the same time, based on the trailer, he borrows entire scenes quite liberally from it). I agree with most everything Casey Becker says. True fans would not remake THIS many movies in a row. Platinum Dunes is all about money, money, money. Period. And yes, those who blindly say "OMG THIS MOVIE GONNA RULE ITS BRILLIANT CANT WIAT!!!!!!1" sound just as ridiculous as they claim the naysayers sound. Except, WE aren't shamelessly kissing ass. For a while, I too had disappeared from this blog because of the insane amount of ass-kissery, but the more I think about it, the more important I feel that my voice is heard. So, I'll stick around. Sorry, guys. :D Hope you will stick around as well Casey.

Yeah, cause nobody in their right mind could possibly be genuinely excited for this movie without simply being an ass kisser. *rolls eyes* And while we're on the subject, there isn't a single person who's "stood up" for the original films by crying "You're stealing someone else's hard work" that has an intelligent arguement. All your points about how they are stealing ideas have no real basis or leg to stand on. You forget, PD is making the movie for the OWNERS OF THE FRANCHISE. They're not stealing anything, they've been given permission and have the blessing of the people in charge of making any new Nightmare film, and right now, remakes are in and that is what they want to make for the next movie. No it's not Wes Craven, but like has been said countless times before, he's not in control of the property, and based on all your arguements, you might as well be bitching about Nightmare 2, 4-6, and FvJ as well. They "stole" his idea for those as well. The only time an idea can be stolen is when a "rip-off" comes out. This is an official Nightmare project, officially sanctioned. Nothing has been stolen, and honestly, if it wasn't for my deep love of the franchise, all the whiners would make me ashamed to call myself a NOES fan. I'm all for people having their own opinions, but at least have valid arguements if you're against something.

That's the point these ARE valid arguments. This forum is full of ass kisser comments - no PD fan even points out any flaws cos they know PD are reading this - so they're acting like star struck tossers. If you look on any forum, there are SO many people against the re-make of this movie. It isn't like the others, people love the original franchise & especially NOES 1. They ARE stealing - they are stealing the iconic scenes from the original film, they've also stolen scenes from the franchise, 4 & 5. These ideas were thought up by other writers & directors. Platinum Dunes claimed they were doing a re-boot - which would be completley different. And what have we got? Scenes from the first movie, the fourth and even the fith - of course they're stealing - what would you call it??? No-one is saying they're stealing from New Line - it's worse, they're stealing ideas from creative talents with original ideas - something these guys don't have. These bastards have got away with enough, people are fed up with their shitty re-makes of classic horror. They are doing exactly what you said, Freddyisking, they are "ripping off" and then trying to pass it off as a reboot. Do they not think we all know the franchise and especially the iconic scenes and will call them out on it. This is a completley pointless re-make just to make money. Hollywood's a heartless place. I agree, re-makes do make money, but Michael Bay and the rest should just admit that is why they are doing it - MONEY. Trying to pass themselves of as fans is complete shit. Think of your favorite movie, think if you had the power to create new films. Would you remake your favorite, or would you want to create something new to go down in horror history so you could be recognised as a creative talent? Them lying and saying it's not all about money gets people even more riled up about this company cos they know they're lying. From the reactions on forums and critics, I'm just pleased to see how many people are really against this, it's about time ppl woke up. This is the only place where you see so many positive comments (and that's not even many.) Plus, if Freddy is a peado, then the only dreams he'd come back in, would be kids so he could have his way with them LOL. He's hardly going to go after teenagers that told the truth - and how on earth would five ppl with internal injuries forget they were that badly molested?? It would haunt them all forever. Perhaps one might forget, but gimmie a fuckin break. Plus, they would recognise him, they were what? - about five when he was doing it - even if he was burnt to a cinder they'd remember him. They'd be like, "remember that guy that abused us so bad we find it difficult to pee every morning? Well, I had a nightmare about him last night - he's got a lisp" LMAO. You Platinum Dunes lovers might as well get used to the fact that ppl despise this company and that you have no logical argument to defend them whatsoever.

BTW, Freddyisking, if your not ahamed of being a fan of NOES, I'm sure enough us are ashamed of you for backing a company which has "ripped off" a franchise you say you're a fan of. You should have more respect for Wes Craven who created this story, than a company who is regurgitating a lame carbon copy with an awful twist.

Just for the record, I'm not a Dunes Fan. Have I enjoyed the remakes they have put out? Yes, I greatly enjoy their TCM, and despite its flaws, I enjoy F13 just cause it's a Jason movie. And yes, I am open to a different take on Freddy, and I for one was greatly appreciative of what I saw in the teaser. I have all the respect in the world for Wes Craven, the main is responsible for my favorite movie for crying out loud. I'm just not part of the unfortunate majority of people who hate everything about a remake simply because it is a remake. And again, people need to learn the difference between ripping off ideas and paying homage to what has come before: DUH there are gonna be scenes that are nods to the fans of the previous installments, with a remake of a popular movie, it's expected. All the little nods and scenes to stuff that has come before is not them trying to pass those ideas off as their own. Oh, and one other thing, if any of you people who claim to be fans of this franchise but blacklist any other fans who are actually receptive to this remake feel ashamed of my standing up for this movie, that's just fine with me. Not calling anyone out on it, but I'd be curious to know the ages of most of the PD haters, I really would. It would be interesting to know how many of you are fans that were born after 1990. I myself was born in 1984, the same year the original Nightmare came out, and I literally did grow up with Freddy. I'm a Nightmare fan through and through. Whoever produces a new movie is inconsequential to me...I'll be excited for any new movie about Freddy. That's what being a true fan is all about.

I was born in 82 and was brought up with the Nightmare movies too, I have no worries about that - that's where I feel IMO, you're reading it wrong. I feel the majority of these people were never true fans of the original and are simply, and blindly supporting a company. Not that I feel age should come into it - if ppl have found the film and are young, why should their opinion be worth any less? They still have the right to feel about it however they wish, I don't understand your logic on that one. Anyway, if you're such a fan of Wes Craven, as am I, why are you agreeing to something he is oppossed to? He's actually said that he's hurt and this was the one movie he asked not to be re-made. He also said that he would have liked to have come on board as a consultant then have no say whatsoever and PD have ignored him. PD also said they wouldn't be cherry picking the best and most iconic scenes from the franchise and even in a two minute trailer, we can see that they have scenes (many of them ) from the original - even the iconic Tina's death scene - couldn't they have thought up something new with all the new possibillities? They've just ripped it off to use your words. There are also images from 2, 3, 4 and 5. If they wanted an homage, use the glove in the bath - they didn't need to take the rest unless they couldn't come up with their own. I personally find the term homage very ignorant in the same context of this company, it's a joke. I don't hate re-makes because they're re-makes. Their have been some brilliant re-makes over the years, but this company has only given us one - TCM re-make was very good, I think most ppl will admit that. The rest have been awful - and how can you say you liked F13th re-make just cos Jason was in it? I agree that at least with that movie they didn't steal scene after scene, they tried something original, but it was basically a sequel under the guise of being a "re-boot" a term they so frequently use but means nothing, because the originals don't need to be rebooted. The reason people don't like PD touching these movies is cos we've seen what they've done with the others, apart from TCM, the rest have all been terrible or practically shot for shot re-makes. They even had the ordacity to change the Amytiville horror which was based on a true story, and the Lutz family whose story it was, they completley changed and excluded them as well. Mr. Lutz died in a legal battle trying to get the movie stopped. I'd be excited about a new Freddy film too, I don't even mind that Englund wont be in it - I think and feel they could do amazing things with CGI etc now, but because of their track record of terrible re-makes and because they've taken far too many iconic scenes from the franchise -I'm against it. If they had simply made a brand new movie with no nods or scene steals and called it Nightmare 2010, I'd welcome it. The main reason I'm against it now has turned into their treatment of Wes though. Also, now I have to deal with young idiots saying they like NOES and then them not even realising it was a re-make. Although, TBH, this film is SO famous, Freddy is SO famous, even my younger relatives have seen it - I'm talking people in their early teens. This company warrents no respect because it doesn't want to offer anything original - it doesn't want to tell it's own stories and because it's all about heartless money - not creativity like the icons we like such as Wes Craven, John Carpenter and Sean S Cunnigham. They are a company which only regurgitates other creative talents ideas with a slightly different take on them. If they were doing things like Carpenter did with 'The Thing' or David Cronenberg did with 'The Fly' I would have respect for them. Those two movies offered a completley different take on a classic. Even if they took the movies, and did what Francis Ford Coppola did with Dracula. There he took an iconic character but gave us a completley different take on it. PD don't do any of these things. Why do you think they hire cheap music directors?? So they can basically boss them about, and because they know the person will take the job, for less money than an established director so that he can have a hit under his belt and go on to make his own original films. PD come down to one thing and that's greed. If you're a fan as much as I am, I honestly swear to you, I cannot see why you are supporting them. Please, I would actually like to know why, especially with the way they treat talent like Wes.

Again, it's more a fact of me being a fan of Freddy. I honestly could care less about the production company behind the movie. That's just how devoted I am. If there's a new Freddy movie, I'm there. And again, I have all the respect for Wes, but even before this movie was a possibility, I have said time and again, the 80's slashers are the modern Universal monsters, and I would hope and pray new movies and new incarnations of them would come out the same way Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolfman did over all these years. I respect Wes, but Nightmare is a case of the masterpiece becoming greater than the artist. It belongs to every person who the film made an impact on, and I want there to be new movies coming out about Freddy as long as possible. Remakes are what's popular now, and regardless of who makes it, if its new even in the smallest bit, I wanna see it, and if it were up to Wes, I wouldn't get to. I'm not a boycotter. No matter how much I might dislike the goings on behind the scenes, I won't deny myself the enjoyment of something I like for it. And Casey, I apologize if I came off a bit antagonistic. I guess I just had a nerve struck and needed to vent. No disrespect meant.

No worries, same here. I see where you're coming from, but sadly, that's why and how PD are gonna continue what they're doing (making money of others ideas) and treating ppl the way they are too. I agree NOES is much bigger than Wes, I just feel they should have at least brought him on as consultant and I don't like the way they wont answer the question. Fuller seems to bypass all the difficult questions and only answer the easy ones. I'd agree that Jason, Leatherface and Michael Myers have become the new monsters, but Freddy has always been different, hence his popularity which has crossed race lines and society. I actually feel that Jason, Michael and L-F are all basically the same formula in the guise of something else - just a different mask & a different setting. Dracula, Wolfman & Frankie are all hugely different. Back to Freddy though, I've said it before, but he's the only character created on screen by an actor with a complete personality. I don't mind seeing a new Freddy, I don't mind seeing a new film - I'd look forward to it, but I don't want a re-make. They're just tired excuses to make money on an easy bet. Until ppl stop supporting them then all we're gonna get is re-makes. They've already signed Haley on for two more movies - what's betting we'll see more famous scenes in those too, I'm sure we'll have one set in a psychiatric hospital with the puppet death - cos they take all the iconic scenes? Anyone going to see this film will have seen it all before but better, we have Tina's death, even the storyline with Rod being the accussed killer. The bath tub scene with Nancy. The party pool scene from number 2. The scene in the classroom from number 4. The scene in the pool from number 5. It basically goes on and on, now with talk of even more, bodybags etc.. With all the new things this writer (who I have great respect for) could have given us, I'm surprised we're seeing it all recycled when they coulda done amazing new dream sequences. They also could have had new characters with new death's. The only new storyline about him being a peadophile is, I feel the weakest link. I also really didn't want to see a new Nancy. I love Heather, but it's being done anyway. It is done. I still want an answer on the Wes Craven question, considering, even if ppl want new stories this is a corrupt company, who show no respect. They even put George Lutz in the ground re-making Amytiville and changing 'suppossed facts.' These guys don't even respect the dead. I honestly feel you would have got a much better re-make from someone who cared about the characters and story, PD obviously don't or they wouldn't disrespect the original creator. I just can't get past it because the original is my favorite movie and Craven created it - I think he deserves a lot more respect. Plus, I want new stories, not ones we've all seen before.

@Caseybecker about your comment saying "If he has the power to do anything in the dream world, if he's a demon with all these powers - a power great enough to kill living people, and he can mold the situations they are in etc etc. Then why would he leave himself with a lisp "...thats kinda stupid comment...what about in the old nightmare films..where in tha 1st one he's voice changes bout 3 times..then by the later nightmare on elm street he sounds like a dick? not scary one bit...i love Freddy...but i think its stupid to bitch over something thats not even finished..ok im wit you on the its ment to be a new film and there using bits from the old 1s..but im sure theres alota new stuff...dont forget Jackie signed up to three films..so it'll be a trilogy so theres gonna be some orginal in there some where to be onest im just happy Freddys back coz finally some thing is coming that can scare people because theres nothing out there scary anymore...& i also think they shoulda had Wes Craven invold in some way!...but Caseybecker i like your style you just say what you think..and i respect you for it.
