Freddy Vs. Jason (DVD) (Spoilers)

Picked this up today, and this movie was a great slasher. The fight at the end was badass, seeing that chick from Destiny's Child finally die, and seeing two icons battle it out was great. Haven't gotten to the extra's or commentary yet, but I will soon.

Anyone else get this?


[ Never fear, HT was also here! ]

That movie was a comedy classic. Unintentionally, of course, but funny nonetheless.

Now we just need to throw Ash in there for the sequel so he can finally rid us from those two meanies.

And maybe that'll spin off a couple of Evil Dead sequels! Ah.. I'm dreamin.

why does everyone think ash can kick jason and freddy's asses?!

Ash is a human....no powers or nuttin' (not counting the games mind you)

and both freddy and jay jay have been "killed" in every way possible (except radiation posioning)

Ash could take out freddy in reality but jason is another story

(i love the evil dead movies so im not biased)

Ash would be scared to death of jason, half of Evil dead 2 he spent cowering in fear

face it....ash is funny and all, but supreme horror hero he ain't (he's the only but that makes him supreme by default but he isn't that brave...ow...my brain hurts)

Hah... I saw this last night too. The recap at the beginning as to why Freddy wanted Jason was cool. The middle of the movie was a drag (stupid kids!), but the fight between the two greats at the end does kick!

Then I wondered, in that song that the kids sing for Freddy, what good will locking the door do to keep him away from you...?

So? Freddy and Jason used to be human too!

I think they wanted the movie to have humor. You can tell it's not the kind of movie thats scary these days. Only reality is scary now, like the Simple Life, the bachelor and Survivor. What is entertainment coming to.

I think this DVD is great, it couldnt be better for 15 bucks, considering I paid 10 for a Ferris Bueller's Day off DVD with no special features. I spent like 5 hours watching the special features. Watching the movie with the commentary right now (senseless nudity), and it's great, anything with Robert Englund is great. He's just so into scary flicks, even though he didn't like Child's Play. But sure, the alternate ending on the DVD isn't too great, but reading the articles is cool, learning how long it took to get to all this stuff and the different stories. I don't know how anyone can really hate this flick, it's great. Even if you watch it and think it's funny, or watch it to be scared, it's just plain fun. I'm a die(ha)hard Freddy fan, I got the Mcfarlane 2nd edition toy(statue), the FvJ poster, and just got my late birthday present, my Freddy Krueger sweater, and the Elm Street DVD set, but I might be Biased, but jesus, this movie just makes me happy, the senseless violence and gore, the idea of two insane maniacs going head to head. But it is really interesting, people think this movie is so crappy, but those people should read the DVD articles, and see how many ****** ideas there were, the boxing Rocky battle, the one with Jason being a hero, driving a camero, all that ****. Then watch this flick, you'll get a new respect. Hopefully. But I need a sequal. Drop the Resident Evil sequels, they need to stick with some GOOD flicks, like FvJ.


Long live the Springwood Slasher!

Yeah it was cool, I saw it in the theater. Actually I got the Jason X dvd as a gift by mistake, so I'm gonna exchange it with the reciept to get Freddy Vs. Jason, much better!

Yeah the kids singing the song in the Freddy movies is cool!

"One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your Crucifix. Seven, eight, better stay up late. Nine, ten, never sleep again......etc."
