They Are Rebooting A Nightmare On Elm Street Again

[MartyMcFly]

i wish they would fukking nail a nightmare on elm street reboot. there is so much opportunity in that franchise to be truly scary because in dreams you can literally do anything, they really need a good director with a vision.

That's how I feel. Coincidentally enough my homies and I were just talking about this last Sunday. There's a lot to mine there but you need a director with real vision and you gotta do it for the cheap. But you gotta have a guy who knows what he's doing and not some director for hire. Someone with a real take.

I liked the 2009 "Friday the 13th" & the 2010 "Nightmare on Elm Street" remakes. I own both of them. I would've like to seen sequels for them instead.

Hated the nightmare one but I standby the Friday the 13th one. That one was very solid. But there wasn't enough fervor for it

I thought both of them sucked for a myriad of reasons but one issue both films shared was that for some odd reason the writers/directors felt the need to expand on the origin stories of two characters in Freddy and Jason who didn't need any added clarification. Jason and Freddy (and Michael Myers too) have established origins that are damn near perfect.

I didn't mind it in either especially since the nightmare thing didn't touch on anything that hadn't been touched on. Craven has said he's supposed to be a child molester and the other films in the series tip toed around it and showed some of that shyt in Freddy's dead. The problem with the nightmare remake was the same problem any nightmare that wasn't the 1st, 3rd or new nightmare had: no vision

They better try. I know he said he "retired" from the role but truthfully after the last one they need some goodwill and having Robert back is goodwill

Hope this one is better than the last one.

Hope this one is better than The Original.
