The one's from the remake were like a MTV, politically correct stereotype group, that made you wonder how on earth the film-makers could be so out of touch with normal people... lol.

I dont remember jason running around like a superhero, the original score was left out. and the teenagers were garbage. If you are going to try to rebirth a super killer they should have taken the advice of the people that brought back michael myers over and over. they could have learned something that would have made this a super and successful movie.

I agree that this lends to the creepy atmosphere and build up of suspense. However, those movie are at or approaching 30 years old. And as such many of the original fans of the series are in their 30's, 40's and 50's. Studios target demographics in preparing these movies for release. That is it, bottom line. The studios demographic is going to be 16-25 on average. That's not us, the older fans. That's the newer generation of fans. The new crop of fans are in their teens and have been brought up in the digital age of filmmaking. Every movie that has been released in this generation is fast, flash and move on to the next big scare or action scene. So, I think it will be hard for us fans to get that movie with the old feel we so desire. Younger fans want Jason all of the time. That's one big reason why Jason Goes To Hell was so heavily panned as you did not get Jason in the whole movie. I think in order to truly enjoy the impending newer movies that are going to be released, we the fans are going to have to adjust the way we approach these movies and have a more open mind to how Jason is portrayed and his mythos is told. If you can't get on board with the new generation Jason and Friday the 13th, then I guess it's time to leave the franchise behind and keep your fond memories at hand. I am excited for the newer movies to come. I hope Jason lives on forever. What an awesome franchise!

And I agree with other posters that Shannon & Swift have had a shot and its someone elses turn to write a decent movie. I'll probably get jumped on for this but did there seriously need to be THAT much sex in it?? The sex scene seemed to go on forver.. especially in the extended version. I know its a staple of the series to have premiscuous (sp?) teens but its still a horror film not a Porno lol! Maybe show a litte less of Jason so early in the film, but other than that, keep the tone of the sequal(s) serious like the remake was and please... NO ZOMBIE JASON!!!

Continuity itself fell into the eye of the beholder from Part 8 onwards in my opinion. As such, I worked very hard on a logical proof that allows the new movie to be seen as a sequel. It's important to me that there is one Jason Voorhees and one Friday the 13Th Franchise and Series. I always despised with comic book, film series, etc decide to 'start all over.' It's like saying there was something wrong with the originals. I remember what a big fuss it was when the new movie was being talked about before it came out about whether it should be a sequel or a reboot. The creators did a good job at fashioning the film in such a way it can work as both. Don't mess with that, please. For instance: No having Alice come back from the beginning. No having Tommy come back as a kid again. (Though he never died, so there is no reason he couldn't come back as an adult.) No having Ginny back in a reboot form. (Though, again, no reason to not have her back as a continuation.) You get the picture. Actually, we have some great characters here with Derek Meers as Jason (Should ABSOLUTELY come back again. Meers kicked ass and really put life back into Jason.) I wouldn't mind seeing Clay and Whitney come back. They made me smile and I think the idea of a brother sister power duo is something fresh to the series that could, if done right, drive a new installment. Keep Jason at the camp. More nudity! I know I'm likely not to see guy nudity (sighs) but there is no reason we can't have more skinny dipping like already mentioned. It doesn't take long and it's traditional in Friday the 13Th. At least one shot the moon, it does represent Pamela after all. The power of Part 12 was rightly appreciated. And I want to see that intensity continue. I would like to see them touch on the fact that Jason is a demon, spawned from a serpent (Annunaki) bloodline. But I want them to be careful with it. Jason Goes to Hell did it and made it very obvious. Perhaps we could have a more subtle approach to the origin of Jason's power?
