    I feel that they shouldn't have started this project, considering A: Robert Englund doesn't want to reprise his role (so there goes freddy out the window to begin with)..because no one can really replace Englund as Freddy. I mean I've been trying to imagine anyone else playing Kruger..and it just isn't cutting it. Ok, and B: Why change up the backstory to Fred..why? I mean it's been explained as to how freddy came into play throughout the series..so there really isn't anything else you can explain. Well in my point of view there isn't. It should go in the recylce bin and start on a prequel(if Englund is up for it). I don't want to see a newly portrayed Freddy..it will just seem to awkward throughout the movie. So unless Englund will reprise his role..I'm not even going to bother.

    At the end of the day ... all of us are going to watch this no matter what we might say in here. I mean, lets be honest. It is the remake of Nightmare On Elm Street, who in their right mind is not going to watch it ? Even out of curiosity. Whether we go to the movie theatre, or wait for the dvd or even download it. The studios know it, i know it and everybody knows it and that is why they are remaking it to begin with.

    I'll watch it but I probably won't like it... like it how it is.

    And yes Mirrors is a remake... and don't ask me how I know, I'm just a "Korean Horror Noob".

    I'm affraid of this remake.
    A nightmare on Elm Street movie without Robert Englund will be weird, I don't know if I can imagine someone else as Freddy. The original backstory is great and I don't like the fact that the producers wants the change it. I really don't know about this remake, but we never know, some remakes from the 4 -5 last years were good, like Dawn of the Dead, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Hills Have Eyes, The Ring. But we have to understand that usually these remakes are not targeted to the Hard core horror movies connoisseur but to a new and younger audience that never saw the original at first.
    So yes, i did'nt like most of the remakes from the last years, but I'm always curious about them. Let's hope that this one is not gonna be a total mess..

    If the story of Fred Krueger is a matter of public record in the remake then Nancy in 2009 only needs to flip open her cell phone, type "FREDDY MURDERER SPRINGWOOD" as a text message to 46645 -- and get all the information she needs.

    Rewriting the back story will probably require forcing the original events underground. No botched trial, no official records, and next to no information to go by.

    It does make sense.

    I'm not coming out in support of the remake -- or in disgust, even.
    Glad I'm not the only one who realizes what Fuler said makes a lot of sense given the setting of the film. It wouldn't have to be a totally different back story, but an altered one.

    Out of all the remakes this would be the most difficult to redo. Seriously why would you want to. With the crappy jobs they have been doing with these remakes, you would think they would get the hint that true horror fans are just not into them. Give it a break and start putting some real thought and heart back into horror movies.

    You want deep to play him? Hmmmm.....not sure I know of this "Deep" you speak of. I'll put some deep thought into and get back to you.

    On a side note, Depp wouldn't make a good Freddy. The man is good, but I don't see a good fit.

    I knew it was inevitable after the Halloween and Friday the 13th remakes, but none the less, I find myself muttering strings of cluster cusses under my breath and trying to figure out where this whole wave of remakes is going to end. I understand the more positive outlook on trying to get a younger and new audience exposed to "The Classics", but remaking something isn't exactly achieving that. What I find entirely laughable about this particular venture is their choice for Freddy. I mean, the man is barely taller than me at five foot five and was the subject of a discussion between a friend about me that basically went, "Watchmen was alright. . .but why was Rorschach so friggen short?!" What are they going to do? Slap a pair of platforms or stilts on him or hire a cast of midgets?

    It really isn't going to get any better, is it?

    There are just some things that you do not do, and this is one of them. The original NOES is one of my favorite movies, and what Im hearing is very disappointing. I may very well be skipping this one.
