Day 6

 Day Six: November 5th, 2023… 

97 Minutes in Heaven….

Hi, I'm Jethro, and I was told to find a pig to fuck.. I'll chill in this closet for 97 minutes in the dark and hope that's a human with me.

Enough with that terrible start.

Six days in, I've started sharing what I am doing with others. Some seem excited, but I'm sure the consensus is that I am crazy.

I found my button from 03!!!

Backstory or lack thereof. Sorry, Jason….

Why do we need to know Freddy's backstory to start the movie?

It's not like this movie was made for people who had no clue who Freddy was. He was a pop culture icon; Jason, on the other hand, was not as big of a pop culture icon as Freddy.

Wow. Johnny Depp is in this movie. Hey, that is not about backstories, Quist.

So if Freddy needs fear to survive, that means you cannot kill Freddy because some idiot will make Freddy an urban legend, and maybe he will terrorize outside of Elm Street.

Regardless of what Freddy said in his death movie, yes, every town has an Elm Street, but not every street does.

Why does Jason get the generic telling of his backstory? Stupid copyrights.

Jason can't die because of the Necronomicon Ex Mortis. That's an entirely different movie I will never challenge. I get where you were going, Adam; it didn't land well or age well.

Sense of direction?

How does Jason know where Lori lives? He is portrayed as a big dumb idiot in this movie that must be equipped with an early 2000s GPS. All Freddy told him was to go to Elm Street. He didn't specify which Elm Street or give an exact address.

What if Jason went to Elm Street in Puerto Rico? Pretty sure Lori doesn't live there.

The butt of the joke. 

Ha ha. That's an anal joke Blake made. He closed that back door. That's why he smiles and smirks.

Body double, what the hell? 

Today, I noticed that Katherine Isabelle with Wet Hair has no bangs like her stunt double with a tan.

Random casting thought part one.

Is it wrong to think that studios cast Lochlyn Munro thinking they cast Sean William Scott? I'm not dissing Lochlyn; he is a great actor, and everyone should see Spiral. It's not the Saw spinoff. 

Worst casting decision. Cast someone to play Jason Mewes, who cannot even be passable.

Quiet Please

Why does that sign come into complete focus when you see Mark's bare ass on the window, and he farts. Waste of a fart because it was a juicy one, and no shit came out of the window.

What if… she drank the juice?

Containment revisited.

Wait a second? So, finding Will and Mark will keep Freddy contained? Logically, it makes sense to hide the fearmongers. But logically, it doesn't because Will and Mark are not sedated anymore and could easily give Freddy the fear he needs to return to the dream world.

Roadblocks, nobody leaves, and curfews to track someone you live in your dreams?!? This makes no sense.

That is another poor choice of words.

They really should have not used the Columbine comparison, I find that to be distasteful as well as the sweater line.

More random thoughts.

Someone showing compassion and caring isn't dating a dork.

Being named after a car brand is dorky. Thankfully, their name wasn't Ford or Dodge.

If I came across someone like Mark at school, I'd be concerned about the school's lack of security. Especially since the school wasn't placed on a lockdown. So much for containing things, Springwood PD.

Mark admitting that he "accidentally" helped Freddy is classic. Don't have a meltdown, kid. You were the idiot who did that.

Leaving makes everything better! Sounds like a typical run from your mistake and leaving others to suffer in your absence. I wanted to take this to a dark yet real place but held back.

I'm not genuine in this showing; I feel like I am channeling my inner Freddy and trying to make wisecracks.

I like how quickly Kia forgives Linderman for standing up to her. She saw how hurt he was seeing Lori and Will hug. That is the only realistic thing this movie has to offer. Compassion.

Pretty sure Trey's neck wasn't injured from the bed stabbing and subsequent bed frame testing. Yes, the bed came from Mattress Firm. But which one?? Considering how they just pop up, it's probably the one on Elm Street.

You couldn't get away with filming that sequence that Jason doesn't tolerate. Tone-deaf by today's standards. I'm sure there is a chance that things will change again in my lifetime regarding that scene.

Why is falling asleep the key to solving all the issues in this movie? I'll admit this movie does make me sleepy, but I only find sleep solving a problem if you are tired or sick. If a dream demon who can kill you in your dreams is after you, sleeping should be the last thing you consider. Hypnocil or not.

It is hypnosis like an OTC dream suppression medicine because I've never had a prescribed medication kick In right away; it takes days to a month. Whereas other medicines usually work quickly. Unless it's laced with Fentanyl.

Mark already did it; it would have made the movie so much better if he had said yes, I will help you and Freddy keep him alive to spread the good word on Fred.

Wow. Johnny Depp is in this movie. Hey, that is not about backstories, Quist.

Significant discovery, or are the lead characters that fucking stupid?

They were in the room where the hypnocil was before Freeberg flushed it down the sink. SMH. All they had to do was look past Will and see it in the cabinet on the wall by the door right in front of them when looking at the sedated patients.

Freeberg is in that room in front of them.

Will, Lori, and Kia dropped the ball, being more concerned about her father drugging the teens into comas. All they had to do was look at the cabinet on the wall in front of them, and their problems were solved; roll credits and this shit show was done.

Can Jason die?

Sorry, Freddy, Jason cannot die… unless it was Jason from parts 2-4. Pretty sure the Jason in this isn't even the Zombie Jason from Part 6.

Jason regenerates and is a zombie powered by the Book of the Dead, which I mentioned earlier.

The first pitch is to bring Freddy back to the silver screen.

The whole containing him by erasing him is a good plot point, and it would be the best way to bring him back to the silver screen.

Freddy is an urban legend until he gets that one kill, and all hell breaks loose. Sounds a bit like what Peter Jackson wanted to do but would be more effective and doable now if you had a damn good script, a visionary director like Mike Flanagan, Damien Leone, or Kathryn Bigelow. Watch near dark, and you will get why I mentioned her. It needs practical effects and a great cast that does not have Jenna Ortega. Nothing against her, but she is type-casted and, IMO nowhere close to being a scream queen.

Don't let David Gordon Green and Kenny Powers touch either franchise represented in this movie. I'll defend their take on Halloween Kills and Ends but draw the line on Freddy and Jason. Stay away, Blumhouse.

How often must we rename a summer camp to make people forget Camp Crystal Lake?

We have reached an end to today's events.

A CGI Glove that was better rendered than what Marvel currently produces for the win. Kudos, Jason; you also didn't have to wink at Lori while going down to the bottom of the lake.

That glove death by Jason was not enough for him to win. This is more of a Freddy movie than a Jason movie.

Freddy 3 Jason 3. Don't call it a comeback!
