Saw III Poster

*cqb101* · 06-28-2006, 07:36 PM

I like it. A lot better than the Saw II poster.

*Brodie* · 06-28-2006, 07:45 PM

I like their posters, very clever site gags. Though they're kind of flooding the market on the whole franchise, considering it would be less than a year since the last one was released.

*Dr. Doom* · 06-28-2006, 08:49 PM

oh that's just lovely

*DrSpengler* · 06-28-2006, 08:58 PM

I like the Saw trend of a new movie every year.

Who remembers back in the 80's when we got a new Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th every year?

Sure, the quality wasn't stable through every flick, but it was something fun to look forward to once a year.

I like that Saw's bringing that trend back.

Saw is crap. Enough already. That stupid doll is retarded, and now is it going to have a chick voice? Lame.

Yeah I didn't dig the first one too much myself, and then I watched #2 just to see it and I didn't like it much either.

Yeah it has it's vile parts in it and kinda cool plot twists but if they got some better actors and actually made it a bit more gorey it would be a better film. But like DrSpengler their not made to be good, it's just something Hollywood can cash in on every Halloween and something people will look forward to. As long as people keep seeing it, it will be made.

They should make a "Zombie's Ate My Neighbors" movie, now that's where it's at.

I like the Saw films. I consider them to be a thinker's horror franchise; instead of putting the knife in your face and just hack away aimlessly, you get a story and you can try to figure things out on your own.

However, to me, part II was a bit worse than the first. The cast was quite medicore as opposed to its predecessor.

Get lost. You got your ass handed to you in the videogame section, it doesn't mean you need to follow me all over the forums.

Worry not, I have better things to do than, "follow you all over the forums." In fact, I'm pretty sure that if I had it my way, I'd never have to see or read anything you'd have to say ever again. But, I suppose we can dream, can't we?

It just seems to me that you enjoy jumping into conversations solely to mock or bash the topic at hand, just for the fun of doing so. I mean, here these people were discussing the new poster for Saw III, and out of the blue you reply with your usual rhetoric -- the franchise is "crap" and "retarded." What constructive purpose could such a statement possibly have in the conversation? Am I off the mark, here?

Well, there IS an Ignore function on this message board. If you go into your User CP go down to the bottom of the options and settings list on the left-hand side, you'll find a Buddy/Ignore List. Just type someone's name in there and you'll never have to read another post by them again.

Problem solved.

Wow, I never noticed this before...Thanks DrSpengler!

---EDIT--- Damn, I can't ignore him because he is an admin/moderator. What is this world coming to?

No one cares! Dude, I came in here and expressed my opinions on this franchise. Just because I don't coat everything with a thick layer of sugar doesn't mean I'm trying to "bash" or troll a thread. If anything, your post berating me was the worthless one.

Anyways, back to the topic at hand everyone.

**Jo Dawn** · 06-29-2006, 08:33 PM

I've not seen any of the Saw movies, which is kinda odd, as I love horror movies.

...Really? That second movie poster irks me. I mean, I haaaate nails like that. It's not shallow it's just something that really makes me shudder, hehe. Cause then I think of them being dragged across something, and breaking and pulling and...

...ack.

Sliced · 06-29-2006, 08:59 PM

That poster is pretty good. It reminds me of a similar poster, I think it was candyman ... where a girl had all of her teeth replaced by razor blades.

I liked Saw alot. The ending is pretty good. The story was very good for a B graded horror flick. But there's a lack of gore, and that doll is indeed useless...

But overall, it was for me an entertaining movie. Not the kind of thing I like to see in theaters, but still enjoyable.

Saw 2 though was crap. Although it had one scene that got stucked in my head, the needle pit. Other than that, the story was really so-so, and the suspense was predictable.

And yeah, the ''daughter'' now taking the buisness back is not really what I wanted to see...

*Brodie* · 06-29-2006, 09:13 PM

It's not really B graded....It had a pretty good budget, and it had a major release after a few film festival things. Kind of like another film, Donnie Darko?

B grade is like, Toxic Avenger, or Evil Dead.

*The Stryker* · 06-29-2006, 09:18 PM

I think Toxic Avenger is down to about G grade.

I enjoy the Saw movies for pretty much the same reasons Krow stated, It's nice to have a horror movie that's actually sort of interesting.

Well, Troma movies are intentionally made to be the most painful experience on the planet (hence why they're so awesome).

The first Evil Dead movie, as Bruce Campbell even admits, was meant to be taken seriously. Hence, it's a legitamet B movie. An awesome B movie, though (with the best stop-motion this side of Gumby).

*The Stryker* · 06-29-2006, 10:33 PM

Oh I know, I love both movies

*DrSpengler* · 06-29-2006, 10:37 PM

I think the best thing about the Toxic Avenger is that it spawned a kid's cartoon series, the Toxic Crusaders. Which lead to the big controversy that got the series cancelled, because parents were renting the Toxic Avenger for their kids without knowing there would be head-crushing scenes, gutting scenes, attempted rape and a part where a chick masturbates to a photograph of a ten year-old boy with his head run over by a sedan.

Genius.

I can't wait for Saw: the Animated Series, coming to Kids WB this Fall.
