Gesamtkunstwerk Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Tobin Bell was already old as **** in the third movie, I cannot believe they got him in this one, but I'm glad they got king Tobin back, literally the only good actor in the entire franchise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConceptD Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 They could really do with entirely rebooting or remaking it at this point. A retcon is absolutely necessary because the entire series as it stands is super confusing and convoluted. I’ll always watch the new ones, but the last few have not been it.

The first and second are so, so good but apart from the traps the later sequels don’t really bare much resemblance to them. The entire franchise seems like a big blur to me where I can’t even remember what was going on in half of them despite rewatching them all like 2 months ago. also if they’re trying to pull a Halloween/scream by bringing Shawnee back and doing a requel it’s not going to work because she’s not a well known horror character. They need to keep it simple. I’m also mad that they’re seemingly bringing Tobin bell back too because at this point it’s been done to death and we’ve had multiple storylines around whether he is or isn’t dead already only to find out he actually is dead. It’s so convoluted. Start fresh in a universe where none of the other movies happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EriKills Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 If Tobin and Shawnee are back…it’s gonna be another flashback esque movie? They really effed up killing Tobin and Shawnee’s character so early on in the series, especially since Tobin continued to be the main focal of the series at this point I’d be here to just pretend like they were never killed ajsks or set a movie in a completely different universe but with the same premise, I love the series so much but it’s just been miss after miss ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another part of me wishes Dead by Daylight had a Netflix series and the Entity takes Amanda (played by Shawnee ) juuuuust before she dies in Saw 3 and we get to watch her navigate the trials as The Pig.

Start fresh in a universe where none of the other movies happened. i don’t remember what happened in 4-8 or whatever except it being basically all about the detectives taking over which is lame. also all of the traps about one person having to save a bunch of people which again is lame and seems against the whole “will to survive” aspect. a fresh start is exactly what they need but with tobin and shawnee back and with the pervious director that looks to not be happening. let’s hope the movie is basically saw 2.5 since they’ll both be back and at least sets it up for better remaining movies. 12 hours ago, Roberto said: Wasn't that Spiral basically? i said WITHOUT the detectives. spiral was basically a detective movie with some traps.

stophittingmedad Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 because of this thread i watched saw 2 last night and that movie is so good it really has everything - great twists and interesting traps. it might be better than the first one. im reading the synopsis of the other sequels and they’re so bad lmao the turn that the movies take is so wack when they could have gone almost any other direction and had some good movies. i saw a photo online of the bathroom from the first movie being rebuilt and i’m like again… can we move tf on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khal Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 This got stale like 5 movies ago, but the fact that it's set between the first two movies and Tobin Bell is back, maybe there's hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
