S-T Report post Posted January 18, 2018 Yep. They made huge bank, so this abomination of a franchise will keep rolling. https://bloody-disgusting.com/topnews/3477468/jigsaws-games-arent-yet-exclusive/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dc20willsave Report post Posted May 16, 2019 Chris Rock is now rebooting Saw because sure, why the fuck not? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James D. Report post Posted May 17, 2019 No way he can do worse. And this franchise has desperately needed a reboot forever now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S-T Report post Posted May 18, 2019 Saw 8 was an amazing theater experience. Everyone was laughing in derision. On opening night. Probably 30 people in the theater, laughing at how bad it was. It may be interesting to see where Rock takes it. They’ve written themselves into so many corners that a reboot is the only way to continue it without it getting even worse.

dc20willsave Report post Posted February 6 I mean, good on them to at least vaguely seem like they're trying something new. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James D. Report post Posted February 7 I'm willing to give it a shot. With new directorship, maybe this premise will get the good writing it always deserved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donomark Report post Posted February 7 I've not seen a Saw film, but I think the casting of Rock and Jackson as leads in a serious horror film is supremely inspired. IDK if Rock can wholly pull off a role like this, not that he's never done serious acting but his voice doesn't fall in easily with gritty dialogue. But the visuals of him and Jackson being the leads in this kind of film really interests me. Seriously, as Jordan Peele has proven, the one surefire way to get me into seeing a horror film is just to have black leads. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teenalphabro Report post Posted February 7 Honestly, I’d rather see one of these as the cops cleaning up crime scenes and investigating than what they were doing beforehand. Cause honestly? Never seeing the games in process, only the aftermath, is way scarier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S-T Report post Posted February 9 I saw the trailer tonight in "Birds of Prey." I was surprised that it appears to be another sequel (or a spinoff) and not a reboot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
