I’ve always hated that jacket-look!, it’s not scary for me: that’s not Jason. I want the classic Jason look to be back!, the look we saw in Part 3 and The Final Chapter. Also, forget that stupid machete thing too!!.

Bring back the classic Jason and give him an axe!!!

Always said I hated the jacket, I am old-school and love the shirt. But part 6-9 are still my favorite looks especially 7 and JGTH.

I don’t understand my someone would be upset about a jacket. I mean, it’s a jacket. Were they this upset when he went from overalls to coveralls after part 2? I personally don’t care what he wears, it’s not that serious.

In the first place, that jacket introduces an additional level of aesthetic badassery to his character, but that’s just an aesthetic observation, and a very subjective one, at that.

In a more thematic capacity, I think the jacket is quite consistent with the reboot’s modification of the Jason character to resemble a more human-like state, which was the case in installments one through four. Considering this behavioral context, and considering that I’m a vocal proponent of this refreshed characterization, the jacket works exceedingly well.

Whatever he wears in X works. Don’t like fvsj jacket at all. Was dissapointed at it first in 2024 flick, but in the end it kinda works and makes sense.
Personally, I’m a fan of green shirt and grey pants he wore in parts 3-4 (in FC it looked cooler becouse of it’s worn out look). My second favorite is bluejean overall from part 2 and I honestly had a hope they’d tweak this with sackhead in 2024 flick.
For the jacket, as some had mentioned already, I do agree it makes him look like a homeless. For me it just takes away the original Jason.
For the future installments I think they shold go with the shirt instead of jacket.

Don’t bother me,even though I thought it odd in Part 6 that he put Tommy’s gloves on and then that one guy’s tool belt after he took his machette. I just over looked it as something the director decided to try a new direction and to me it really never hurt the film, now he’s been wearing a jacket and people are mad. Well, what difference does it make he’s got a jacket on? At least he’s not naked or wearing ballerina clothes, come on get over it!

I personally loved the Jacket look. Made Jason look scarier. I mean, sure, he was scary in the past films, but he looked more like a homicidal janitor than a retarded killing machine.

The Jacket adds a sense of scale to the character. Beefs up his shoulders and adds length to the overall body of the character.

Oh and if we keep talking about how bad the FvJ movie was…I think it wasn’t that bad..it was well tried, and I believe watching the making of, that Ronnie wanted the two killers be as opposite as could be..Therefore ( sadly) Jason had to be the one with the most changes..a gentle giant…well, I’m with most of you, that Ken’s performance of Jason wasn’t really the best Jason ever, but as a whole, the movie was pretty funny and bloody…and ofcourse Jason was the winner…so it wasn’t the bad ending some of the slasher movies had.
I think I liked Ronnie Yu’s Bride of Chucky more than Freddy vs. Jason, but still consider both movies worthy enough to be a part of their franchises.
