He’s producing, NOT directing.

They took one of my favorite movie series off all time, and let Michael Bay direct it.

This is why I hate remakes so much.

Trailer looks pretty wicked. Not sure about the new makeup and voice, but we’ll see how it plays out in the movie. Not gonna complain either way.

The one thing that worries me is Bay. I’m not one of these people that constantly bash the man…on the contrary, I’m a fan of his…I like the mindless, senseless action movies. But this is a whole nother deal. Story and mood matter in this movie. Does anyone know if he’s done horror before? Guess we’ll see how it plays out.

I actually like that twist. Not to say that he is innocent but rather he WAS.

No matter who Krueger was before the angry mob incident he becomes a supernatural terror with no mercy and perhaps becomes worse than the beast they mistook him for.

And then it would also introduce the idea that since they burned up the wrong guy in blind vengence, the person who did murder or molest their kids is still out there. Maybe it was one of the parents starting the angry mob who is really responsible.

That angle opens up so many story options instead of just mindless “you fell asleep.. your next” mentality.

I think you are missing the point. This isn’t an exact word-for-word remake of the original, it’s a retelling of the story with a new twist. It’s obvious that in the trailer that Kruger is actually innocent. And seriously, Here’s how I predict the plot will develop.

Freddy Kruger is not a child molester, but rather the town loner who mainly keeps to himself and befriends kids because the adults have nothing to do with him. At some point a few kids are found murdered, and a rumor starts going around that Kruger is the one responsible. A few town members band together and do exactly as you see in the trailer in that they hunt him down and burn him alive. As he is dying in one of the most painful ways imaginable, he swears his vengeance upon the entire town, and for whatever supernatural reason the writers can think of, he receives the chance for revenge.

I personally like the idea that they are most likely changing the plot up a bit. It makes Freddy a little more three-dimensional.

I’m not interested in the whole “he’s really innocent” angle…can’t anyone just be an evil bastard anymore???

im sorry to ruin everyone’s love of the movie, which I do too. But it’s produced by Michael Bay the director of Transformers,

Sorry I won’t pass but I definitley won’t like the movie.

Why does he have to produce this valuable franchise !!!!!!!
