I Fell Asleep
I'm joking. The teaser trailer for the remake of Nightmare on Elm Street didn't give me the zzzzzs, but it did make me laugh until I burped a couple of times. As much as I love Jackie Earle Haley (dude's performance in Little Children made me report him to Chris Hansen), I can't help but think, "You were in Bad News Bears! You don't scare me!" I was seriously waiting for one of the bitches in this trailer to tell Freddy Krueger, "KELLY LEAK, STOP! Coach Buttermaker isn't going to like this!"
And since Michael Bay produced this, does that mean he made Jackie Earle Haley wash his Ferrari for the role? Because if that happened, that's the shit I want to see!

I really liked Jackie E. Haley in "Watchmen." I thought he truly brought Rorshach to life. But honestly, does Hollywood need to recycle EVERYTHING? If I were Wes Craven, I think I'd be a bit insulted that someone thought they could do a better job than I'd done.
-------------------------------------
I think Craven is on it/likes the remake money. Many of his ultra-violent 70's films have been remade recently.

Yeah. It totally needs remade by a dumbass like Michael Bay. I mean, the original was only one of the scariest movies of all time. Of course it deserves to be shit on by the genius who brought us all Megan Fox.

Frankly a man with a wolf-shirt shouldn't settle for the first thing that comes to him.
I'm with all of you who posted about how the original Nightmare on Elm Street was fucking scary beyong belief. To this day, as a 37-year very pragmatic woman, I still have a hard time watching it. Elm Street and the original Exorcist movie, that's some scary shit. That was before everynody went all fucking nuts about cussing/nudity/and actually calling a cat, a cat. I was over in Europe 6 months ago, and I simply could not wrap my head around how much T&A there is on TV/movies over there, and in prime time to boot. And you know what, past the initial voyeuristic thrill of it all, well it sort of fits. I watched the premiere of "Dexter" on Showtime yesterday and I was thoroughly flummoxed at seeing a pair of boobies at 9am on my BoobTube (lol). but I digress- or am I? Point of the matter is, LEAVE the FUCKING 80's cinematic gems alone and go find your own fucking story. Seriously!

awww, yet another tribute to Jacko, I figured it out when he says "but I didn't do anything!! (to the kiddies)" and we believe him and feel sorry for him.
This looks better than the "Friday the 13th" remake they did which was really, really not good. And that makes me sad, because I have always been a huge Jason fan, while Freddy just never did anything for me. I guess it's to be expected, though, because you can be so much more creative with dreamworld kills. Jason's got a machete and that's pretty much it. Not as much to work with.
I'm not liking this new "Freddy was innocent!" angle. I feel really bad for Freddy in that clip when he's crying "I didn't do anything" and all the people are after him. Feeling sorry for Freddy makes his deeds seem somewhat less evil.
That said, I am a hypocrite because I will totally see this in the theater when it comes out.
Pretty soon they are going to be making re-makes of the re-makes. That kid from the bad news bears is totally getting his career back.
Michael Bay won't quit until he has massacred every iconic horror movie.

Thanks Datura, yes that's what I meant.
I'm cool for this movie simply because it gives Jackie Earle Haley a job. He's a great actor, been working hard since he was a kid, and it's nice to see him get a break. He obviously wouldn't be getting the romantic lead opposite Jen Aniston any time soon.

dementa - did you ever see the original Nightmare on Elm Street?
Freddy was killed by the parents of Elm Street for doing naughty things with children.
He's NOT innocent.
------------------------------
I think that's what she was trying to say. She thinks it's stupid that in the remake they're making Freddy an innocent man wrongly accused when in the original he was a filthy bastard child molester/killer. There's no need for that kind of change because Freddy was able to grab audience favour before just by being a great character.

This makes me sad. The original was an important movie for me growing up. First horror film I saw, actually. This remake looks like it's got better production values, but half of those "big scare" scenes are shot-for-shot the same as in the original. What's the point of remaking something already good?

This was one of THE major movies from childhood/tween years and I can't believe that they are remaking it. Okay...let me rephrase that, I CAN believe it, but without Robert Englund, there IS NO Freddy. C'mon...the guy playing him looks and sounds like a douche. Lame.
Great, another movie where the Big Bad is just an innocent person who was unjustly killed and turns evil. So cliche. What's wrong with an evil person who was killed and stays evil, like he was originally?
This would be annoying enough, except that they're raping one of the great classics of horror. As if the sequels weren't enough, now they're REMAKING it. What's next? A new and sexy remake of Casablanca, starring Zac Efron and Miley Cyrus? A politically correct remake of the Godfather?
Maybe they should remake "The Matrix" - it's a whole decade old! Time to "modernize!" Oooh, how about an action-packed remake of "2001: A Space Odyssey," only with more sexy young stars and fast-paced action sequences. Also, HAL will be an evil CGI robot.
As for the actual quality, it's a MICHAEL BAY movie. He's the anti-Midas, and everything he touches turns to doodoo.
I didn't put that very well. What I meant was, what's wrong with the bad guy being evil from the start like in the original movie? what's wrong with it that they have to change it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Freddy Kruger pull a Polanski and was murdered by the townsfolk because of it in the original flick? I'm assuming they're sticking with that same story.

Ok, this doesn't look too bad, but I have two problems with it. One, in the original, Nancy is not blond. And two, nobody can fill Robert Englund's shoes as Freddy. Period.

Yeah, baby! I can't WAIT til the remake of Star Wars! Much better no?

I guess it's official, Hollywood filmmakers are 100% out of original ideas.
Yet another churned out piece of shit molded from one from one of the greatest and most original horror movies ever made. Do you know how I know this movie will suck so fucking bad? In that preview when they are about to burn Freddy, he cries out, "What do you think I did...?"...so they are making this Freddy NOT be a child molester, I assume. Trying to be PC? WHY?
Fuck all these remakes. When I was a kid growing up in the 80's, I watched all kinds of movies from the 1950's and up. Some movies hold up well over time, and some should still be appreciated for what they had to offer for their time period.
I've not seen one of these shitbag remakes that has had the ability to capture that which scared us all so fucking bad the first time and made the originals into CLASSICS.

Stoney, word to your comment about people not being able to watch "old" movies. Like, really, WTF? Are you not going to watch Grease or Back to the Future because you don;t like the decade they were made in? Really? And I swear, if anyone ever decides to remake the original Star Wars movies or E.T., I will fucking blow a fuse and have a heaping pile of dung delivered to the producing studio. Seriously.

Looks like he's stayed true to the original story line.
But the real Freddy Krueger will always be Robert Englund.
And the original Nightmare on Elm St. will always be my favorite.
Johnny Depp is in it!!!!!!!!!!! ♥♥
Actually, that doesn't look too bad. But I'm still terrified of Kruger after all these years.
No joke.
Growing up, I was deathly afraid of the dark and would imagine figures shitting on my bed taking forms of all the shit that scared me. Freddy was the worse. He would sit on the edge of my bed and his claw would touch my face. I swore my house was haunted, but Mexican aunt thought I was crazy.

Jesus. Another completely unnecessary remake for no other reason than the CGI generation can't bear to watch anything without some godawful over the top SPESHALEFEX and MOODEE LITING. Fucking retarded.
well shit. I feel like I just saw the original yesterday. 25 years just went by like THAT.
I remember, because I had just started dating my future hubby then, and I was mad because he would not walk me home at midnite, after we had just watched it. (I lived only 3 houses away).
This just bummed me out. I hate remakes where I've been around for the original.
Well,
At least they don't show Freddy's face that much. I'll buy a ticket just to see what he looks like. (Plus, I had such a crush on him in "Bad News Bears"! I was only 4, but I liked to stare at him, for reasons unknown to me at the time.)
ROBERT ENGLUND OWNS THIS ROLE!
It's like FAME with out GENE (Leroy) AND IRENE (Coco)!
Fucking Hollywood, catering to all the vagina queefs born in the 90's. GET OFF MY LAWN!
Now where is my Grease soundtrack 8 Track tape? I better not live to see a remake of Flashdance.
