    Did the Saw re release kill the chances of more Saw films?

    Saw got a pretty big re release and it bombed in a spectacular fashion. Do you think Lionsgate will cancel the remake? or just shuffle it straight to DVD/blu ray?

    It may have bombed, but think this through for a second......many have already seen it up on the big screen during its first release, and many have the movie in their collections in one form or another. If most are like me; we've seen the film half a million times already, and if we really wanted to see it again we could watch the damn thing again for free. So, not much of a surprise that it bombed, or maybe I'm just being a tightwad. As far as it affecting any plans for another sequel only time will tell. As far as a remake it's a pretty ignorant idea, and hopefully this tells them it's a mistake.

    Like, so many people out there were trying to track this down. And it just...got delivered on a tweet. What the hell.

    "I saw Saw 2 too"
    "Did you see Saw 3?"
    "No but I saw Saw 4"

    I think this one plays out til the end. Lionsgate films are use to a good deal of flicks bombing

    recently....

    "Tyler Perry Presents Peeples"
    Budget: $15 million
    Worldwide: $9.3 million
    Opening weekend: $4.6 million

    "The Big Wedding"
    Budget: $35 million
    Worldwide: $21.8 million
    Opening weekend: $7.6 million

    "Ender's Game"
    Budget: $110 million
    Worldwide gross: $87.9 million
    Opening weekend: $27 million

    They are still a really good company(obviously)...I think they will keep em around...other movies are grossing them plenty...just my thoughts...

    I don't think this rerelease was well marketed. Only reason I knew about it was seeing a lobby poster when I saw Gone Girl.

    Also mainstream horror comes in unpredictable fads. Saw brought a rise to what we labeled Torture Porn.

    The current fad is micro budget PG13 Ghost/Possesion Flicks. Audiences didn't want to see people crawl through barbwire, they went and saw the shitty Ouija for halloween.

    Perhaps we get to thanks James Wan for both these trends?!

    That said no Horror brand seems to be able to ever stay dead. In the future we'll probably get some DTV or Syfy made Saw follow ups and eventually a remake.
