I must admit, I'm a "Slasher" junkie. YEAH, their dumb, but that's the fun of it. I also have to confess, when I heard they were gonna make a movie called "Freddy vs. Jason" I was intrigued. So, what do you think? Would you watch it? I would, although, I'll wait for it to come to HBO. NO WAY would I spend my money on it.
 
By definition such films require a victim, someone vulnerable who is unable to properly defend themselves. In a film like that there would be no one to care about, they're both monsters so all the better if one of them dies horribly. There's nothing to generate sympathy, or fear.
 
TRUE, they are both monsters, but think of all the disappointed Jason fans, if he dies. Vice versa for Freddy.LOL
 
I do , too. The guy can take off his claws, and still kill people, WITHOUT being in the room. Jason wouldn't stand a chance against something like that.
 
This just wrapped in Production

Halloween: Homecoming
Release Date: 07/31/2002



Halloween: Homecoming is the 8th installment of the franchise that started back in 1978. The series centers on Michael Myers, a maniac who murdered his sister on Halloween night in 1963. This time around a group of young adults camp out in the Strode house for a webcast. Things inexplicably go wrong with another killing spree. Busta Rhymes, Tyra Banks, and Sean Patrick Thomas star with Jamie Lee Curtis returning for a cameo role.
Originally known as Halloween H2K: Evil Never Dies, the title was changed to Halloween 8 as a result of the film's Halloween 2001 release. Larry Brand (Paranoia, Till the End of the Night) worked on the screenplay.

It's an actual movie....
 
After Wes Craven got all pomo with the Scream series, I'm not sure where there is left for the genre to go. It's going to have to move back into the psychological horror direction, and away from the stalker/slasher. Audiences are burnt out on the angsty thing that came prior to the new mellinium, so I'm not too sure where there is left to go. I'd have to guess sci-fi / horror stuff, but the budget requirments there are a lot greater than for traditional horror, so not as many films can be made. I'll stick to my Hithcock tapes until someone tells me somthing else is better.

Anyone see "With a friend like Harry," btw?
 
What will Hollywood think of next? "Jason Takes Manhattan" is on later tonight. OH YEAH!!!!!!! Can't get enough senseless violence. Although, I HATE RL senseless violence.

sexy-girl, Superman would - in fact, there was going to be a Superman vs. Spiderman fight but the editors of DC vs. Marvel knew it would be over in moments. Instead they had a Superman vs. The Incredible Hulk fight (Superman won).
Though Peter Parker did ask Lois Lane on a date in that same mini.
Lois Lane: I'm flattered but it's..
Peter Parker: You're busy?
Lois Lane: No, I'm married.
Clark Kent (Having just slipped behind them): To me.

PP: Oh! Sorry man, I didn't know. I wouldn't have asked if I knew.. I mean.. you'd crush me like a bug.
Clark Kent: That's alright Mr. Parker

I just typed this from memory, that's scary. I wonder how many brain cells I've rotted from reading comics?
 
lol how did i know you'd reply like that and tell me who would win :)

lisa's probably rotted the same amount from watching cartoons shes a cartoon freak :) ... and me ... well i guess i never had the brain cells in the first place :)
 
In the same series Storm beat Wonder Woman and Wolverine beat Lobo, that's got to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

Oh, where was I?
Brain cells? You've got plenty hun, don't let anyone tell you differently.
 
Anyone remeber Harlen Ellison's "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex" essay where he discusses the logistics of Superman fucking Louis Lane? Part of it made it into the dialog of Kevin Smith's "Mallrats." I've not read it in ages. I should look for it on the web or somthing
 
I vote for the, "or something." I'm sorry. I just HAD to.

Yes. I think I'd remember anything which ended with Superman pregnant and Batman avoiding him because of it.
