he;s fucking genuinely terrifying thats why. just like chainsaw massacre. the only two movies i have always uironically been scared of.i think a big thing is the fact that they dont talk and yet show some emotion unlike jason who is just a brute cringe killer
>and yet show some emotion
are you fucking high
>going strong
this lol
Another reason is people like Myers actually exist IRL (who just kill people because they are pure evil), unlike zombies or people who enter dreams
>put mask over MC and never have him talk
>make movies forever without ever needing someone who can act or the original actor to be alive
True jew
>>Least iconic
According to who?
>he;s fucking genuinely terrifying thats why.
Only in parts I,II, and 4.
He sure as hell ain't as iconic as Jason and Freddy
No gimmicks.
Jason needs a reason to not be at Crystal lake,Freddy needs a reason to comeback and haunt dreams. Mikey just fuckin does it, everyone knows he's eventually coming back and you don't need some gay 30 minutes of WHY AND HOW!!!
Michael retained his seriousness unlike the others. Jason went to space. Freddy became a quipper. So it was easier to bring him back as a scary villain.
he's timeless while the other two are corny as he'll now
in part I he is a fucking clown
only good scene is
youtube.com
and it's still fucking retarded
-Less special effects to deal with compared to Freddy
-Not the center of a lawsuit like the Friday the 13th movies
Jason is just a shit copy of him and nobody cared about Jason until he started properly copying Michael in part 3
like when he stops and ponders before killing a relative or something. or the soul fact that he is chasing one of his relatives and will stop at nothing to kill her. that shows some sort of emotion right there. its his reletive he is after and will kill anything in his path, which just like
said is entirely possible. no matter now scary they would have made "it" i would still enver be scared because it's just a cosmic alienshit. real life crap like chainsaw massacre is top tier scary. vorhees is decently scary but he's too brutish for my liking. hes too dirty and corpsey like a zombie.
>Jason is just a shit copy of him
lmao
Michael's problem is that he gets retconned all the time though
Human Jason is much more like Leatherface than Michael Myers, especially in Part 3.
>He gets retconned all the time
True, but his origin story is always better than "I was a retard who drowned" or "people thought I was a child molester BECAUSE I AM A CHILD MOLESTER BLEH!!!!!!!"
Victor Miller admitted it in Crystal Lake Memories
The general audience don't give a shit about that though. I'd bet most people who watched the new Halloween still think Myers is chasing after his sister
he never said it was a shit copy faggot
Slasher/gore horror sucks anyways
The only good "horror" movies are the creepy ones
Fag
>Timeline where only 1-6 are canon

How do they keep getting away with it?!
What about the one where he gets killed by LL Cool J?
Friday the 13th is being held back by film rights faggotry, if it wasn't for that we'd have a few sequels for the 2009 remake (which was sucessful)
Horror is the lowest form of cinema.
Laurie killed him in H20, LL Cool J got shot by Laurie's boyfriend who mistook him for Michael and sat out the rest of the film
>has the best single movie out of any of them
>best music
>better and more memorable human characters (Laurie, Loomis)
Honestly the only reason Jason is a part of this trio is because of the timing of their release; his movies are all pretty terrible except for the first one and he isn't even the killer in it.
That didn't happen
>better and more memorable human characters (Laurie, Loomis)
Guys, that was Busta Rhymes.
Trick or treat.............~time passes~......MUTHA......FUCKA
Jason is trapped in a lawsuit. Not sure about Freddy, but I'm guessing it's because it's harder to do a purely formulaic movie involving him due to how unique he is.
>Except for the first one
You've never actually watched the Friday the 13th films, have you? No one considers the first one the best. Normally people say either Part IV or Part VI is the best one.
Nobody cared about Jason until he put on the mask xD LMFAO!1!
>Not sure about Freddy, but I'm guessing it's because it's harder to do a purely formulaic movie involving him due to how unique he is.
Freddy got played out back in the '80s. He's got nothing left and everything different that's been tried has been a gigantic failure.
>least iconic
God you're a zoomer... he is the Icon. Jason and Freddie wouldn't exist without him. Jason is just the stupid pitbull version, and Freddie is just the MTV soulless version (past the first film anyway)
this is a trash post.
>Normally people say either Part IV or Part VI is the best one
Not him but those parts just have the most retarded fanboys. Parts 1-3 are objectively the best, it's not even up to discussion.
Elm street has two problems..
1. The last reboot was a failure in a lot of ways.
2. Englund won't let the role go and keeps acting like he's Freddy, and in some ways he's almost impossible to replace. It would take a really great unknown guy to do his own thing and WIN over fans. It's a lose /lose.
Not them, but most people know the Freddy glove and the Jason hockey mask and both items can be used as symbols to represent insane killers, while, for whatever reason, Michael Myer's name and mask are relatively obscure by comparison.
>he is the Icon
he's a blueprint you dumb faggot
both jason and freddy shit all over him
>Michael Myer's name and mask are relatively obscure by comparison.
This staement is just wrong
1 and 2 are slasher kino, but part 6 is far superior to part 3. The camera in 3 even had a Vaseline look to them, truly a troubled film, but I agree it's fun to watch and is one of the better sequels, but you don't have to pretend that it's better than 6 just because it's four years older.
VI was the top, although I grant you that the original "Final Chapter" was damn strong.
I thought Jackie Earle Haley was great in the 2010 movie
Are you high? They released a Halloween film last year that did great business whilst the other two franchises are dead.
I agree, the makeup and movie we're shit though. Nothing that was bad about nufreddie was JEHs fault
Yeah I don't agree at all. Myers mask is the icon and it's one of the most recognizable things in pop culture.
I agree that Jason and Freddie had stronger films in the late 80s, and Jason especially was very commercial because it was just the lowest common denominator of mindless violence... but Mike had the better films (I and II) and the bigger impact in the end.
Also, the Halloween nostalgia in the last 5 years has been massive. People have flocked back to the original Halloween in a way that very few films can top. It's shown in theaters every year and the collectors merch with prints and shirts is insane. It represents the holiday for a whole legion of boomers.. not to mention the new film was pretty good.
They've been doing that for the last 4 or 5 years in big city markets. I've seen it in the theater almost every year.
Every single time the topic of horror "icons" have happened in public, no one, not one person, has ever known who Michael Myers was without also saying the name "Halloween", then specifying you mean the film and not the holiday, and then finally saying that MM was the killer in it and that it also had Jamie Lee Curtis. She's the reason why Halloween as a franchise has any mainstream recognition at all.
>buy muh Halloween started it all!
That's debatable, but even if so, Jason did it better and is the most iconic.
Not at all. Part 3 is THE high point of the series.
Part 6 is soi F13 with better production.
III is good clean slain-hippie fun, user, but its cameraman was a fag (probably because of the 3D), and its ending cannot hold a candle to the kinotastic re-drowning of Jason.
fuck the police lmao
>and its ending cannot hold a candle to the kinotastic re-drowning of Jason
No offense but your taste is shit user
His gimmick is more believable than either Jason or Freddy. Easy.
t. Alice Cooper-hater
It would have been if he wasn't bulletproof.
>playing dead by daylight
>Killer is this faggot
>Mom comes in to talk to me
>He comes on screen and starts chasing me
>She does a 360 and nopes out of the room
Lmao
Besides Tommy name one non-killer character more memorable than Laurie or Loomis.
No one knows who Michael Myers is without a complete recap, and you know it. 99/100 times the other person interrupts and asks was has Micheal Myers even done outside of SNL.
It's fine to let things die. Serial killers aren't even culturally relevant anymore, all the Millennials and zoomers would rather go on mass shootings.

Halloween just isn't iconic, and no most people don't associate Jack o' lanterns with a horror movie.
laurie is basically remembered for the actress and not the character and fucking loomis "lmao he's EVIL" is a garbage character
i'd take any random pair of tits from friday the 13th over those two
No idea what shithole you live in but pretty much everyone I've ever talked to about Halloween knows Michael Myers.
Obviously not much since it's normalfags but they know him.
Get a load of this farthead^
>LL Cool J got shot by Laurie's boyfriend who mistook him for Michael
>implying it wasn't racially motivated attempted murder
Your cats don't count. Michael Myers is the Atari 5200 of slashers and you know it.
Not the argument, you're just proving they're more memorable than any charcters in Friday or Elm Street even if you hate them.
Tommy was a killer though.
I don't think even you believe this. How would Halloween have become the most profitable of the three franchises by nearly $200 million if nobody knows who it's about?
And fireproof. And explosionproof.
Because the other 2 devolved into pure cheese before they died. Michael always had strong roots. The original halloween is still the best slasher film. Im not even sure if i would say michael is the least iconic.
that is exactly the argument faggot
even being recurring characters they aren't memorable in any significant way over random characters from the other franchises
Legitimately, why do you LARP on Yea Forums, what do you gain?
Do you just dislike Halloween that much or like Jason that intensely? I'm a fan of both but it's just sort of sad, man.
>Jamie Lee Curtis is a bigger name than either 2 other actresses combined
You called the entirety of Friday's cast "random pairs of tits" you absolute retard, the fact is you couldn't even name one without looking it up but you remembered right away who Loomis was.
He's right though.
>people who enter dreams
>Implying you wouldn't want to watch a slasher movie with a spiritual theme
This, but unironically. Jason is only iconic for the hockey mask.
T. Meathead Jason fan
Jason has only made a few million more and had two more films. That will change soon anyway.
loomis is a RECURRING character you fucking imbecile
characters from friday the 13th don't usually come back from explosions with minor bruises to repeat the same gay ass lines like that annoying cunt does, they stay dead
Michael has far more bad movies than good.
Michael Myers is Nirvana
Jason is NICKELBACK or silverchair at best.
>Do you just dislike Halloween
I love the holiday and think that the original film and its first 4 sequels are quality horror films,(with all the others being pure AIDS-infected vomit) but they just don't have the character-in terms of the lead killer-as Friday the 13th. A Nightmare on Elm Street on the other hand got stupid with the first sequel and "ended" on a high note with its third entry, then dove off a cliff, only to pull up at the last second to expertly hang-glide (Freddy's Dead is the best one) until the wind failed it.
We literally had a mw2 private game type called michael myers. Many participants were zoomers too. He is iconic.
But the good ones blow away the good ones of the other franchises.
>But the good ones
>plural
Yeah, but i never claimed that it didnt? I just said it didnt devolve into cheese like the other 2 did. Thats a huge deal honestly. Additionally, he has the strongest roots to fall back on. All 3 of the series have more bad than good regardless.
I'd rather watch Halloween II (1981) than any of the Jason or Freddie films.
>Least iconic
Them's fightin' words!
1, 2, H20, and 2018
Halloween 1-3, H20, and 2018 are better than any f13 movie
Freddy and Jason are too over-the-top these days. Myers is simple and straightforward.
I'd rather not waste my time with that film again.
based. would add 4 to there
4 is trash
>H20, and 2018
Halloween II is just the other half of I, though.
I actually prefer it to 1978 sometimes. It's beyond comfie.
4 is the best one, but the mask is different so you sperg out.
You don't know what death is
Englund made fun of my hair and said I looked like the redheaded girl from IT when I met him in an elevator
It's not the mask, the plot is trash and the "twist" at the end laughable
>Also third movie is completely unrelated to any other and doesn't have Michael Myers in it
Not only that, the first Halloween was playing on tv’s in the 3rd one
Honestly, I think part of this is a nostalgia for Halloween, the holiday, itself. I think people aged in their mid 20s were some of the last to have a town-wide Halloween celebration, I've personally seen it celebrated less and less since around 2009 or so. They're of an age where they're financially able to take control of the holiday itself and are eager to bring it back to the Halloween of their childhoods.
Something Halloween has, obviously, is that unmistakable comfy fall feel.
>the plot is trash and the "twist" at the end laughable
Nah, a good plot and the ending perfectly dovetailed with the ending of 1. The mask is a good one, just get past that it's different and enjoy.
Sophie is hot though
I watched some of his panel at dragon*con this year. He's a bit of a pretentious cunt.
rather dovetailed with the beginning. Whatever. Halloweens past 4 have all been horribly laughable.
Whatever it is - it's big bucks.
It's different in the sense that it's irremediably trash unlike the first three
Do you think /ourslasher/ will survive Halloween Ends, bros?
The mask isnt good.
didnt he die in 2018
I just mean, the whole movie Halloween is iconic, where only Jason or Freddy or whoever is iconic, with the rest of the film largely ignored.
Halloween itself is a large part of it.
Well yeah.. I mean that's why they used the holiday back in the day. It was free marketing. They knew what they were doing. No other holiday fits a masked killer better. You saw lots of attempts to copy this with Valentines day, Christmas and so on.. but it's just perfect for horror.
You're doing a good job pleasing the five fat guys in that one website you go to. Good job. Glad you don't really believe it, though. Next time you watch 4 with the curtains drawn, think of me.
It would be absolute kino if he died a definitive death but I don't think it'll happen
You're going off the rails there buddy
I'm not watching that trash again by the way
But The Thing is the greatest movie of all time.
Have fun watching it again, user. My favorite scene is when Loomis talks to Michael in the diner.
True, but don't forget that they absolutely nailed it, which I think is no small feat considering they filmed far and away from the NJ Halloweens of my childhood, and it looks nearly identical.
Freddy's the only one with knife hands, Jasons the only one with a hockey mask, it was a more earned iconic status with this movie, I think.
Would be great if he murdered Lori or Lauri once and for all. No point in cutting the family angle if he still is tied to her for 3 films
>NJ
Ew
Without NJ you wouldn't have this movie, dipshit.
Where do you think Haddonfeild is? Where do you think Deborah HIll is from?

Yikes. Either go bald or don't show your hair at all
I didnt realize that NJ had similar vibes to a midwestern suburb in the fall too
>bodies your manlet slasher
I mean the name specifically, but yes, that's the appeal, Halloween is fairly universal to anywhere with those trees, mid west and east coast included, but they did a decent job of disguising their west coast filming locations, only betrayed by the open-hallway school and a couple stray palm trees.
Halloween is illinoiskino get your own movie

Chad Jason Part VI references James Bond and Frankenstein, the Virgin Nightmare and Halloweener are both solipsistic.

>tfw you realize all presidents are because we're an imperialist country
Ah yes, references, the biggest indicator of kino
The first two Halloween movies actually being good have something to do with it. Friday the 13th turns to shit after the first and the only memorable Elmstreet after the first is dream warriors.

Based and Silver Shamrockpilled
his gimmick always felt more believable. he was the size of a normal guy unlike jason who was taller and bulkier. the mask with the hole cutouts and hair was a lot scarier than the hockey mask too.
Jason is stuck in a legal battle preventing sequels and Freddy everyone associates with one actor at this point
According to who?
It's impossible to revive elm street, Fredy is Englund and no one else can live up to that.
that movie is top comfy, and the girls are cute and pretty well-written for a slasher
Its true
James Bond is one of the most feminine creations in any narrative medium, let alone just literature (but especially in literature). Like most feminine protagonists, like any YA novel protagonist, he doesn't earn or work towards anything. He simply has things. They're there, with no intent on explaining how they're earned, or the complications of having earned them, or challenging himself to maintain his right to earn them. He gets some more things later, but it's either an unearned item or achievement, or an arbitrarily worked-for item or achievement. His overall qualities are built around being pretty and convincing the opposite sex he's attractive, via these things he simply has for no truly earned or challenged reason. He rarely bears flaws - and if he does they're minimal and often-times irrelevant, for like most female-created characters, characters are not challenged nor do they work towards any goals or items or achievements, they merely have them or obtain them with no true sense of effort derived.
Ian Fleming's prose is excellent, and he can produce interesting characters, but Bond is not only not one of them, he's almost out of place in his mediocre feminine existence compared to the far more engaging and masculinely-designed antagonists and deuteragonists
The only "people" who actually thinks the core existence of James Bond is anything but this shameful label are smooth-brained hylics who either refuse to think critically about their literary icons or simply lack the mental capacity to do so, and the only other ones in denial are the pathetic pseudohumans who bear a feminine brain in a masculine body, pushing them towards embracing these feminine ideals instead of masculine ones. The only true praise I can give to James Bond as a character, is that he's for the most part consistently portrayed by actors who do their best to struggle towards achieving this feminine ideal - making them far better "characters" than Bond himself ever could be.
retard
Canna read tiny pic, friendo. Also, Jason got laid.
He was 6'0 at his shortest, Jason was 6'4 at his tallest

Halloween has the most garbage history out of the three, so it's easy to shit out another movie that literally ignores previous entries in the series:
Friday the 13th
>basically a fucking mess by the end
>zombie Jason
>a whole movie about a girl with telekinesis
>Corey Feldman
>some bullshit final movie about jumping through bodies
>a reboot attempt that was interesting and made money

>Craven is the only writer or director to ever do a sequel
>the mad lad does something else that isn't even in the franchise's continuity
>reboot sucked, tried too hard to be scary
>second remake in development hell while company focuses on Conjuring universe
Halloween
>suck a goddamn mess that Nightmare looks consistent by comparison
>3 was an unrelated film with the same title

>H20 ignored 3-6 because it was retarded
>Resurrection killed Lorie again, then had Busta Rhymes beating the fuck out of Michael with kung fu
It's not hard to impress your fans when over half your franchise is shit you're so embarrassed by that you have to literally ignore it to make another movie.
there's a better and more iconic death scene in that same movie lmao
Would you?
>now another reboot that ignores everything after 6 is being made
Tell me more, sounds kino
I would
you say this but you post nothing
What makes slasher movies so fucking comfy?
Honestly , the predictability of the formula and sex every 20mins
I would any human female with a pusy
you don't know which one i'm talking about? jesus christ
Co co co co cope cope cope
>third movie
Wasn't that the one with the exploding pumpkin heads?
The slutty maid costume please.
The guy who wrote part 6 is writing the new one.
He clothed her for modesty. Wouldn't want a naked corpse in front of Pamela's jead
Honestly if you are like me I primarily watch them in fall in October. And that time of year is fucking max comfy so that probably has alot to do with it for me at least.
Phew..thank God. For a second I thought they passed the franchise onto a hack who would just throw random ideas together with no real concern for fleshing them out.
This, Jason is pure.

>tfw Halloween thread finally does good
It's been a good day anons
But even the pure have urges.
We should thank the F13 Chads who kept it alive for us.

Solid choice but something about schoolgirl laurie really does it for me.

Chop Top was always better and if you disagree you can lick my plate, you dog dick.

LOL
All the soibois are watching Halloween now lmao
Shit, Tommy Jarvis is the most recognizable F13th protag I'd say.
Doesn't hold up without the rest of the family and the hitchhiker is a lot more interesting, imo
Jason is literally the most normie slasher there is. Halloween and TCM are true kino
>Why yes, my favorite slasher is Michael Myers. What gave it away?
>TCM
Just once they ought to show TCM1-3 on Turner Classic Movies.
>For me, it's Chucky
Can we agree that the most disappointing Jason film is 7? Not-Carrie was a bad actress and the woods and mud puddle lake sucked.
Why yes I prefer pennywise the clown over the more famous slasher villains, how could you tell?
Most of my fond memories if F13 dont come from the actual movie. But from the long nights playing the game with my gf
what is currently happening with halloween? I thought the new one was good
did it do ok and make a sequel now?
Even when I was a kid Chucky felt stupid
That's a roundabout, low test way of saying Jason is more popular and iconic but at least one of you are admitted in the end.
I'm not sure that I would really call TCM a slasher.
It doesn't really have the stereotypical hallmarks
Sure they never hit it with that weekly segment they used to have with Rob Zombie hosting? Don't remember what it was called.
Two sequels for 2020 and 2021
They're making 2 movies releasing in 2020 and 2021
Nice quads
>tfw you'll never be a child ever again, watching heavily edited versions of Friday the 13th on Spike or Halloween on AMC ever again
i guess this makes leatherface the equivalent of mudhoney then
Leatherface is the equivalent of Slayer
oh shit rly? will probably checkemout
Leatherface would be TAD. too OG to be that successful long term.
Not-Carrie was my childhood waifu and Jason looked badass in that film
>still posts nothing
point taken
>Pennywise! I love that guy, so scary. Jason? Super cliche. Michael Myers? Literally who? Freddy Krueger? He's funny, I guess. Saw him on Rick and Morty
The Druid crap and Resurrection were both cheese. Every time they mess it up they reboot.
Sorry old man your movies are shit
you disappoint me user
youtube.com
She's just unattractive to me. (Now the bully chick was more my speed.)Maybe it's her piggy nose. Jason looked ok, but unmasked he looked like a pirate.
>filename
Part 8 was even worse
>>now another reboot that ignores everything after 6 is being made
Is that going to happen? I thought the lawsuit was still going on.
>Why yes, my name is Roy Burns. What gave it away?
>Part 8 was even worse
I fully agree. The 8th one has the worst title too, nevermind that it was largely a bait and switch. 8 is just boring until the last 20 minutes.His teleporting ability was amped to 11 too.
waste of trips.
>lamest jason
>that torn mouth smile
>that aggression
>that damage continuity
>the missing eye
>the exposed spine
>that perfect mask
Did you forget part 8 jason exists? Literally just wet black overalls and a yellow mask
Part II is scariest Jason because of the similarity to Zodiac and Town that Dreaded Sundown
He looked more like an orc from LOTR than a Jason
Jason in 2 was a goof. kicked in the balls, wrestled to the ground by some random guy, fell off a chair, backed away in fear of a chainsaw. Mask was good though
My only mistake was not naming that file "arr matey sex marks the spot" and you know it.
Because the original movie was only second to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and they throw out enough films to stay pretty relevant. NoES turned to fucking trash after Dream Warriors (aside from Freddy vs Jason), and Friday the 13th is under a legal battle for copyright and will probably never have another film again at this rate. As trash as Rob Zombie's movies were, they did keep the character relevant. At this point I'd honestly be surprised if they didn't make another NoES though.
Is that actually from Part 2?
Can confirm because there’s this super tall autistic guy in my neighbourhood that is hyperactive and randomly lashes out on people. I’ve seen him break a store’s windows and behaved similar to Michael Myers.
Who is the lawsuit between ?
>bully chick
I really like the fact that they threw her into panties for a scene for no fucking reason.
yes. Jason is also pretty small, a couple of the actors are noticeably bigger
Victor Miller, the original screenwriter who was hired to flesh out the script off of the director's loose framework, is suing Sean S. Cunningham (original director and producer of much of the series) for the rights to the series. Miller currently holds the rights to the Friday the 13th name, but wants the rest of it despite never intending Jason to be the killer or anything, as well as being hired specifically to write the screenplay. Basically, Miller wants the money and the rights for a character who he pretty much didn't create because he's a faggot.
Yes
lol, shit. Thanks
To be honest, I think horror movie producers are in cahoots with porn producers and they use the horror films as a soft entry, pun intended.
I thought that was from a fan film. Huh goes to show that the last time I watched it was with an old VHS tape.
You're probably not far off from the truth. The guy who directed the 5th movie previously directed porn. His original cut (which I still hope they release some day) had a lot more nudity, and also had the goth girl dying by getting stabbed in the cunt.
Be honest, would you?
>The guy who directed the 5th movie previously directed porn.
For some reason that never sticks with me, but dam you're right. As far as them releasing it, I'd wager never since it's Paramount that has those reels, if they didn't burn them for fun that is.
The next film explained that the guy in the mask at the end of H20 was not micheal
He was in the film after H20
Thing is Myers is so obscure anyone with physical presence can play him.
Englund made Freddy iconic to the point it will be very difficult to replace him. Same goes with Bradley as Pinhead.
Jason can also be played by anyone. The reason he hasn’t has any movies is not because the franchise is dead but because of a lawsuit. Blumhouse has states they’d love to make a F13 movie but can’t
Bitch, Part 8 is the scariest masked Jason. His drowned corpse looks with the grey skin and always being wet works so well within his mythology.
Admittedly, his face kinda sucks, but other than that he's a great look.
Imagine what Tina could do to your dick using her bullshit mind powers.
>Englund made Freddy iconic to the point it will be very difficult to replace him
This. Jackie Earle Haley did great given the script he had, but nobody on Earth has what Robert Englund brought to the role besides Robert Englund. Some day somebody will come along and give him a run for his money, but I think it'll be a while.
I'm pretty sure Michael Myers has taken the crown at this point. Freddy and Jason lost a lot of steam after the 90's while the Rob Zombie movie brought Michael to the forefront of this generation's consciousness.
Slimey yet buff Jason makes no sense. Hodder almost ruined Jason. Where's my backup?
Scariest Jason wasn't even undead. IV and 2009 are far more intimidating
pt 5 is super funny, like literally both the employees AND the teens at the halfway house are all super attractive and in great shape (well, except the fat guy, and we know what happens to him)
This is also a great death scene and I will agree more "Iconic" in the film franchise, but the other scene gives me more of an erection
>least iconic
neck yourself he has always, always been the best and scariest one to me and it's not even close
i know englund is too old to do more movies. but he could do voice work for an animated freddy serie
Part one IS the best. It has great atmosphere and actually takes time building tension unlike every one of the sequels after part 2.
>i know englund is too old to do more movies.
idk i kinda like the idea of an old creepy freddy
He was a creep who used stealth to kill in part 2. He literally snuck up on a guy in a wheelchair and split his head open with a machete.
I agree. Having Jason visually seething with anger was dumb. I liked creepy pervy jason in parts 2 and 3.
Jimmy in Part IV
>Best look
>Best lines
>Best dance
>Best actor
>Fucked best girl
>Best death
What are you talking about? Jason was buff in 3, fit enough to survive a hanging
>I liked creepy pervy jason in parts 2 and 3.
Based
The biggest problem with it was censorship. There is a youtube video that shows extended/different cuts of the kills that are much cooler and gorier than in the actual release. The original version probably included a lot of nudity too but it also taken out.
I didn't say he wasn't jacked. I'm saying I don't like watching him hyperventilate. Kane Hodder tried to give Jason a personality like he had in part 2 and 3 without using words and failed. He was obviously rugged enough in part 2 to take a machete in the shoulder and keep going.
I've never watched any Friday the 13th except the first one
which ones should I watch
all of them
better story
I liked the heavy breathing. It made it seem like Jason was just getting tired of so many teenagers invading his territory
Whenever horror is properly executed, it is at the heights of cinema. Most genres have an extreme amount of shit compacted within them, though, so I don't see your point.
Just watch 1-4 and stop unless you really liked them.
2-4 are essential so just keep going after that
2,3,4,5,6, 9, 11, and 12. I can't recommend the others except as a joke.
>inb4 lol 9-12 are jokes!
Yeah, but 7,8, and 10 are just terrible, with the last one looking suspiciously like a Sci-Fi/Syfy Channel Exclusive Production.
In all seriousness, they're all worth at least one viewing, but ending it at 6 is a great idea if you want some semblance of continuity.
And I liked coomer jason hiding in bushes raping girls and eating small animals. To each his own brother. At least you enjoy the series!
how is 12 a joke
The first one is great. Just watched it again last night. Doesn't get the credit it deserves.
Thank you based user. Still praying for that lawsuit to end so we can get some true slasherkino
Jason X.
Don't listen to people saying it's shit, they're just cry babies that are just mad they took Jason out of the woods and put him into space, and then removed any sort of realism.
Keep going and stop at 4 or 6. If you like the 80's cheese of the series then keep going, but honestly the later movies are just fucking bad, and this is coming from a huge fan of the series.
>>Has 1 movie that didn't become a shitty franchise
And 2 terrible remakes
>Don't listen to people telling the truth
You misread, 12 is on the good side of F13 flicks, fren.
nah i mean in the greentext part.
Is Scream the only consistently good slasher? Even the tv series is bearable to decent
It was sarcastic greentext; I was saying that many other anons would say as much. As long as I'm here I want to say that the film is far from being as great as some say it is, but it does the trick and while it's not "scary" it's surprising at times and leaves an impression. For me the only thing I call foul on was the ending, but I think they did that as a dark joke, paying homage to the endings of 1-3.
Scream was reddit-tier meta shit. Costume was good though
Yeah, basically. Even Scream 3 was a solid movie. I think the 4th is better than it's given credit for too. Considering it's meant to make fun of remakes/reboots, it does a great fucking job of it.
>they're just cry babies that are just mad they took Jason out of the woods with no explanation, had the laziest Jason costume ever, and put him into space, made the environment sterile and boring, thus removes any atmosphere, and then removed any sort of realism.
ftfy yeah fuck the X haters Nanite Hulk Hogan Jason Robocop FER-EVER
yeah i was thinking it was weird to group it with those even sarcastically but i guess people do tend to unfairly shit on the reboot
>took Jason out of the woods with no explanation
Except they did explain it you dum-dum.
>laziest Jason costume ever
The beginning one is just a continuation of the previous ones, the robot version was just a callback to the body horror flicks of the 80's a la The Fly reboot.
>the environment sterile and boring
Except it was none of those things.
>Except they did explain it
Source?
>The beginning one is just a continuation of the previous ones
Sauce?
>>the environment sterile and boring
>Except it was none of those things.
Well I'm convinced now. Thanks for your time, Mr New Line rep.
he got captured after fighting Jason and Ash
Imagine crying about Jason X being the movie to kill realism for a slasher series about a teleporting, unkillable zombie that gets electrocuted back to life and that we later find is the embodiment of evil on Earth.
Ash Vs. Jason can work, even with old Bruce. If done darkly enough. And they have to have Jason win because otherwise it's ridiculous and Ash needs to end hard. I love him, but the horror has to come full circle. This is coming from someone who loves Army of Darkness too.
I poop on X, but yes, I know that VIII is the one that added the sperg juice. Not even part VI Jason teleported.
How do you even kill off a hero like Ash?
>Jason's about to kill Ash
>a Mexican manlet and a fucking chainsmoker show up and save him
If Jason's really a Deadite then Ash should do fine against him though. Ash is a hero foretold of in a prophecy. Playing fast and loose with those kinds of rules is how you make The Last Jedi.
It has to be partly Ash's mistake, like his bad memory, for one, and secondly, with class, user, with class. Have Jason crush him, but you can't let it be graphic.
>blood coming out of Ash's mouth
>...figure's death...would...literally give me a bear hug
>groan uhhhhh
>>a Mexican manlet and a fucking chainsmoker show up and save him
BASED
lol >If Jason's really a Deadite then Ash should do fine against him though. Ash is a hero foretold of in a prophecy
Jason's Crystalchlorium count is off the chahhts, mahstah, over 20,000!
sounds good, but then what? does Jason just keep killing? Does Ash get any last laughs?
>does Jason just keep killing?
Of course.
>Does Ash get any last laughs?
Yes, but he also makes things 10x worse for everyone in the process.
That sounds like fucking garbage. I'm not against the idea of Ash dying, but if that is really your idea for such an iconic character's last words then you should drop a toaster in your fucking bathtub.
What if Jason...was near the cabin in the woods and the professor is the one who brought Jason back? As in, what if Jason is a Kondarian demon inside? Yeah sounds stupid if done in part 9 style, but it could work. Can't find the clip of the professor's voice reading from the book, but it's in the same timeframe too.
Fuck off applehead
Wtf else is he supposed to say? He's just been crushed, his life spark is extremely weak. You expect Shakespeare?
>Ash's skull is removed from his flesh
>Ash's body does a funny dance ala Evil Dead II chainsaw girlfriend
>*from the skull itself*
>Alas poor Ash, I knew him well
>Jason then throws the skull into the lake
>blub blub blub blub
>IS THE SKULL TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING!?
Imagine thinking FT13th is better than halloween in any way.
Also it being Ash, you'd have notes left by him for others to read in the sequels, so you'd hear his voice again anyway.
Go sip your brandy by the fire, faggot.
>What is he supposed to say?
I don't know. Something better than that though. Neither of us are writers.
Good point, but Jason didn't need co-stars to drive his movies. The fun of the FT13th movies was seeing different characters come across, and the inventive ways he killed them.
>Sleeping bag kill in Part 7 will never be topped
>sleeping bag over the decapitation punch
Found the pleb
We are writers, we just don't get paid. I know the kind of thing you want Ash to say at his end, you want him to say something like:"That's not the S-Mart Way to give up, you hockey-masked deadite!" and then detonate some explosives and maybe some flying lumber to boot. I know, I just thought that maybe it would be wiser to be more low key, such as it is.
just finished Friday 13th part 2 and it felt like the shortest movie ever
That's probably a good sign since movies that feel long suck.
Calling bullshit on this. Legal issues will prevent any FT13th movies from being made for a minimum of 5 years.
>Legal issues will prevent any FT13th movies from being made for a minimum of 5 years.
Link?
Stop listening to this faggot. There are no plans for a new FT13th movie whatsoever.
not really
