Freddy Vs Jason this Friday

[Albinonewt]

I read a review on CNN and they say that there isn't a clear winner.

Curses, they better just be full of manure. (chances are very good that the CNN guys are full of it)

From an article CNN (not the first time they've contradicted themselves either):

But even after the writers turned in a script that satisfied the studio, the film's ending remained an elusive challenge.

"Coming up with an ending was by far the hardest part of the process," Swift notes.

The writers eventually went through nine different drafts of the script with five different endings -- ranging from a Freddy victory to a Jason victory to everywhere in between. Other writers, including "Blade" scribe David Goyer, were eventually brought in to offer their take on a final sequence.

But in a fitting Hollywood twist, the ending that eventually made the cut was penned by an unlikely source -- New Line chairman Bob Shaye, the man who greenlighted both franchises so many years ago.

"After a test screening, (the) audience reacted poorly to the ending we had originally shot, (and) Bob came in with the ending that we now have -- and I have to say it is definitely the best," Swift says.

So who wins in the final version?

The writers won't say, but they did promise one thing -- the battle between the two horror legends does end with a "clear-cut winner."

JASON!!!!!!!!

[WickeDKlowN]

I would liek to see Jason win, but it will prolly be Freddy.

I remember talk a while back(i think around the time Jason X came out?)that they wante's to make Jason have a soft side, and that's why Kane didn't wan't to do it.

Also, I saw a preview on the TV and you hear freddy say "We're in the real world now" or someehting similar, so that makes me think freddy come's back to life some how.

I want to go see this sooooo bad right now, but i hav no way to go

[Albinonewt]

Yeah Shooter, I clearly remember that article, which is why I was previously convinced there was a winner. Now I'm not so sure.

I didn't even get to see it tonight.

DAMN!

Kane would have gladly played Jason. The director, Ronny Yu, wanted Jason to have a taller, thinner look though.



BTW, I saw the movie today. Best horror movie in a while.

Well I saw the movie and the advantage in the hand to hand combat seemed to go to whoever had the home field advantage, if they were fighting in a dream freddy had the upper hand if it was in real life jason had the upper hand. I wouldnt exactly say there is a clear cut winner but since the makes say there is there is no doubt in my mind who it is, after all hes such a badass. And down here in southern cali, most of my friends and the people at the movie seemed to be rooting for freddy not jason, just an observation. But if your a fan of these movies GO SEE THIS MOVIE, the last 20 minutes are really great.

I'm going with Freddy on this one, cause he's the underdawg and underdawgs usually win in movies....

I think it should have been Jason vs. Michael Myers.

[Warewolf50]

But the problem with micheal myers is that he is a normal person (just a little physco), and in H2O he got his head cut off.

But they made a sequel to h20...which I didnt watch.

[Warewolf50]

Yeah but from the previews(i had no need to see movie) I thought they said that it was a copy cat mike myers.

[bunkermaster10]

Well for those of you that didn't see H20 she didn't cut Mikes head off it was someone else head. And he doesn't die either in the sequel to that. So ya he still is up and going.

[Warewolf50]

Whos head does she cut off. I thought i remembered him coming out of the body bag, her hitting the brakes, him going threw the windshield, her hitting him and then pinning him to a tree with the van, and then cutting his head off with an axe.

[bunkermaster10]

I think it was a Cop. And the cop had like Mikes mask on or whatever he has on he's face.... So she cut it off. To the sequel he gets burned in a house and stuff, but he ends up living again .
