Nightmare on Elm Street Remake Talk

[Lemmywinks]

I'd had this claw..shoved up my ass for 7 years.

:lol2: The best of luck with this because I don't see how in the hell it could be pulled off.

I am a big fan of the Jason and Freddy series, but I hope they keep NOES on a more serious tone, keep the jokes to a minimum.

what i dont get about englund feelin to old to keep bein freddy or w/e ...he does just as much action as mayor buckman in 2001 maniacs..

[Mudvayne_Eternal]

You should listen to your friend Billy Zane He's a cool guy....ahh I need to watch Zoolander again. I think Billy would be an ok choice for Freddy but regardless of who they choose I will see it anyway. I have too much love for the series..especially New Nightmare not to see the reboot of this.

looking forward to this one. im sure i heard billy bob thornton will be the new freddy...

You heard incorrect :straightface2:

I've gotta say it'll be alot harder to do a freddy remake than all the others. TCM, Halloween, F13... They are all masked emotionless men with very little character. They are all silent killers. Freddy very much isn't. I see alot of people having issues with this after it is all said and done.

I'm particularly excited for a revamp of all the 80's slasher flicks. Think about it from a cultural perspective: we are reaching the young generation to keep alive something that, artistically speaking, is phenomenal. The directors try to keep true to the originals, but they want to put their vision into their favorite movies, the movies that inspire them to create new classics like Hostel and Saw. Granted, there are people who do not appreciate the art and simply want the money that comes with horror films. We should not berate people for trying to revitalize the slasher flick, especially the big three, as I like to call them: Friday the 13th, Halloween, and A Nightmare on Elm Street.

This could be interesting. Even though I do agree that Freddy's jokes added a little something to the series, they do get a little old.

I would love to see a much darker, twisted, scary version of NOES. I've always loved those movies and I love Robert Englund, but I have also thought that they had the potential to be so much better.

You heard incorrect :straightface2:

What have you heard Fright? I'm hearing the same thing about Billy Bob, IMDB has it as well but it is listed as just rumored.

[Rust In Peace]

What have you heard Fright? I'm hearing the same thing about Billy Bob, IMDB has it as well but it is listed as just rumored.

I heard that too, and for a while I thought it would be a bad idea because I'm too used to Billy Bob doing comedies, but my friend reminded me of Slingblade which is very unlike most stuff he's done. So I wouldn't be that bothered if Billy Bob got the role so long as he keeps it serious.

[Gatsu18]

Just yesterday me and my girlfriend watched the entire series start to finish. And now I'm pretty opposed to see a remake. I just can't imagine it without englund.

Oh and Freddy's Dead and New Nightmare blew ass. Just had to ad that.

[REDRUM19]

Dude your high as fuck. TCM was a good movie and was better then it;s prequel tcm the beggining. Now i some what agree with what you say about hallowwen because it was not that great. In all, freddy is the best no one even if it is a shit movie can say anything wrong about it

[glamorilla]

I'm for going with a creepy, dark, twisted as scary as you can get remake of Nightmare on Elm Street~Freddys sarcasm and dark irony sort of lost its charm and got too silly in parts 4 and 5. I particularly liked elm Street 3 with the kids in the hospital trying to fight freddy off.

[M3nt@l K00la!D]

I won't be paying 10 bucks to watch this. Ill wait till it comes to netflix cause I don't think a remake is needed but since its gonna happen anyway they could make it more dark and twisted. I hope they leave Freddys sense of humor. Only killer who could make me laugh and piss my pants. Also think that this guy should play Freddy http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3417806848/nm0911933
His name is Zack Ward and he was in Freddy vs Jason

[blindloathing]

The things I have heard about this remake is that Robert Englund WILL NOT be freddy. No verification on if he will be in the film or not. Still having Wes Craven write the screenplay. I heard the Billy Bob Thornton thing, that just made me laugh. I wouldn't enjoy that. Idk how true any of this is but its what I heard.

Christopher Walken is too old to play Freddy... Billy Zane would be interesting.

I hope this remake is good. I am pretty excited about it but I would love to see America be more original and make some new horror movies. Stop stealing from other countries and making them american and just come up with some new shit.
