I think some might agree with me on this, not that the above idea isn’t, or couldn’t work, I just think that the next Friday movie should NOT be a remake…come on Hollywood…can you not come up with original material anymore? The only thing you need to be talking about when it comes to another Friday film is who’s gonna write it, direct it, play Jason and how to make it fresh and new while keeping the hardcore fans happy. Maybe you can make a movie that gives us that old 80’s feel.

i get trying to start over, but bringing mrs. v back, c’mon. I liked the remake. I thought it was better then some of the other Friday films. I do have all of’em even the 30 yrs of jason. I don’t understand why some ppl had a hard time with the remake, it’s 2024 ppl(not the 80’s). Y would you want the old look, when it is out dated? i did not like the nightmare remake(it sucked).Nothing different to that film. y did they remake it? i would much rather see Friday The 13th films be made, over that four finger blade,burnt up(which the make up sucked),talking moron.

I think they should redo parts 1-4.

They should keep what works and fix things that don’t like:
-time line issues
-continuity
-final chapter’s horrible death sequencing
-death scenes that could be improved
-disco music

They should also film all 4 back to back in one location using a single Jason actor NOT being Kane. Find someone closer to White or Brooker.

I have always liked the idea of keeping Friday the 13Th as one Franchise. So much so I authored an article to link the new one in. I guess for me the reason why is that it is something of legend to say that this series and this guy has been around for thirty years and is still going. Somehow, a remake always has the feeling of wiping the slate clean and trashing everything that came before as ‘old.’ It feels like the ‘old’ Bond and the ‘old’ Batman and the ‘old’ Elm Street and the ‘old’ Star Wars. I don’t want people thinking of the classic Friday the 13Th series as the ‘old’ Friday the 13Th. There is something unique in that the series, in some capacity, can still be described as one whole entity. It’s similar to how Nintendo is still the last original console producer still standing. Friday the 13Th is the last 80s horror franchise who’s remake does not definitively break continuity with the original series. Why wreck that for a what might be a ‘cheap thrill’ of being novel for the sake of starting over and then if the new series doesn’t take and the old one is killed then the franchise might just be left dead in the water.

Now, I am not opposed to a Friday the 13Th prequel off hand. Rather, it might do the series well. I also would have much preferred an Elm Street prequel to what the new one is shaping up to be.

Forget Friday 13th 2024 ever happened and put together a crack team to continue the old series for F13 p12 and p13 (part13 being released Friday 13th,2013). With p13 acting as a fitting end to the series – allowing a proper rebooting at a later date.

My idea (inprogress) for the end of p13 would see Jason returning to his shack, the camera pulling back into the air and we see anuber strong security fence being erected encompassig the surrounding area. They ptb realising nothing could kill Jason and the best they could do is leave him be. And the :) thing being Jason doesn’t die.

For p12 we could have the camp openning up again, people again getting gruesomely killed, but it turns out to be another fake Jason, and evil property man using the Jason ‘myth’ to get the land on the cheap. He is succeeding until the real Jason turns up, looking/acting v.psed, and disbatches the baddie – maybe p12 ends with a whole bunch of the world greatest hunters arriving to be the one who finally kills the masked one.

Then p13 can be an all out kill-fest.

I just want my Jason huge, I don’t want to see all the bits and pieces he’s collected. I don’t want to see how he’s feng shui’ed his dwelling.

I loved the series, even J goes to hell (for it’s OMG ending), but this reboot just let me in tears. :(

I do not think Platinum Dunes is going to “remake the remake”, that would be as assuming things have been done wrong by them!!!…

So, what about a Friday the 13th movie picking up after the events of “The Final Chapter”?, with a grown up Tommy Jarvis and Trish… and with Jason, of course, still alive…

And what about making it the “old school way”?, like the classic movies were made (you know, showing just hints of Jason until the last final chase sequence, when we see him clearly)…

I’m talking a BACK TO THE BASICS Friday the 13th movie with Jason (not his mother)!!

It’d be insane!!!!!

To be honest, i don’t think there should be another remakes of Friday the 13th, as you just can’t beat the originals. If there is going to be a remake of Friday the 13th 2, whoever is going to Direct it, will have to make it better than the original part 2 because part 2 such a cool sequel!!.

No bad idea. Make the first remake reboot, like Punisher: The War Zone. And newer give the dirrector’s chair to Ronny Fucking U.
