Does Anyone Out There Have A Really Good Image Embiggener?? 'Cause Here's Jason From The Bayified FRIDAY THE 13th, Sorta...
Merrick here...
The current issue of Entertainment Weekly has a shot from Nispel & Bay's FRIDAY THE 13th reimagining.
It offers our first look at full-bodied Jason, albeit from rather far away. If anyone out there has better blowy-uppy picture gizmos than me & can get us a rationally clear embiggening of Jason, shoot it to me in an e-mail & I'll update this article.
So, this whole thing may end up being a bit of a Rorschach, but what I'm seeing is a dude in blue jeans, with his long-sleeved shirt unbuttoned exposing a bare chest (fashion model style), wearing a hockey mask. Maybe they're incorporating a fetish angle?

lunchtime..

And that is not a good thing.
-
First!!!!!
Jason may look a little gay here but the framing of this shit looks awesome. It gives it a very creepy factor - especially since it seems our damsel in distress is stuck in the middle of a lake and has nowhere to go. -
Okay....so I was third - not first!
-
and, yes, I called you Shirley
-
At least, that's what it seems to me. The real question should be is if anyone has a gizmo to lift the woman from the water so we can see the hiney.
-
its some "red-shirt" guy joking around in the hockey mask jason ultimately wears?
-
GQ style.
-
Fuck you Michael Bay
-
He's going to be all over the teeny mags now!
-
Under that jacket, but I could be wrong. Not that I'm bothered, I can't stand the horror genre in general.
-
since hockey mask wearing Jason didn't appear till the second one. And Betsy Palmer's not anywhere to be seen..(she did pass on, didn't she?)

hahahahhahahhaha... this goes to show you that you don't know shit about digital imagery. It ain't like the movies -- your image can only be as good as the source itself. What you need is an all new image.
-
He still looks like a fashion model but it does appear that he is wearing a flesh toned wife beater. Bleh.
-
Is Michael Bay playing Jason?
-
Thank me later.
-
Haa Haa Haa ... what would the best way to type that sound?
-
never learned to swim and all of the kids at school used to tease him, until he brought his Machette to show and tell day.
-
Jason got the hockey mask in 3, not 2. He wore a potato sack in 2
-
...it's a pretty cool looking image. I'm all for a F13th remake. Like the first one is some fucking masterpiece.
-
I love all you fuckin fags who bitch about Bay on every talkback. Get a life already. Don't like his movies? Go watch the English Patient again and masturbate with your cheese grater. Waste your time whining if you want to, but the fucking guy has made it clear he is about making money, not "cinema" and I love how all you fanboys think you are reinventing the wheel by continuing to point this out 13 years into his film career. He's laughing all the way to the bank and laughs harder at you.

Ouchy!!!
-
again, ouchy!!!
-
Well I woulden't swim to shore with that creepy fucker lurking around
-
Is that even possible? Can you get things that they have in the movies where they actually improve the resolution of the source material?
-
Will that work?
-
i cant wait for a slowmo rotating 360 degree shot of jason after he chops a head off. then will smith comes out and says, "we ride togetha, we die togetha, bad boys fa lif...." then jason chops his legs off with a samurai sword
-
This must be a still from the new Bruno movie. Jason is going cruising in WeHo bitch.
-
Those that say otherwise can suck it.
-
the Hillbilly Jason from part 2. The burlap sack wearing Jason was creepy when I saw it as a kid. When he lost the sack for the Hockey mask in part 3 it was ok but the Hockey mask killer was a little tiring after parts 5,6,7 etc.....They should have stuck with a burlap sack.
-
You mean, in the movies, when they take a grainy black and white security cam shot from a hundred feet away and the lead detective says "Enhance" and the funny comic-relief computer tech guy blows it up to reveal a license plate and a crystal clear head shot...they're just making that shit up!?!!?
-
instead
-
the fact that bay's shit has been commercially successful is not so much praise for his work as it is an indication of the intelligence quotient of the average western filmgoer. churchill said it best: "The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter." go to the nearest walmart, look around, and realize those folks constitute what is or isn't commercially successful.

God what a shitty movie Freddy vs Jason was....
-
When you hear about 'photo/video enhancement'...it's a little bit misleading. The plain fact is that you can never get a clearer picture than the source itself. However, for images where it's necessary to 'improve' upon the source (or complete it), "rendering" is done (common with spy satellite photos). They use software which examines the density of lights/darks and contrasts in color and add what it determins is 'probable pixels' thereby "improving" the source photo. (In other words, it's not really an improvement...it's an enhanced version with extra computer-drafted pixels placed within the shot to help create a more definable image). So, unless someone here has that ability (real unlikely), we're not going to be able to 'improve' the photo above...we'd just make it larger then try to 'sharpen' the image which would exacerbate jagged pixelation (I did graphic design for a long time heh).

That enitre pic. looks like shit.
by the guy who slept through everything.
TDK ROCKED!
-
and not the original. Cuz as we all knew (unless we were so young that we learned it from Scream), Jason's mom was the bad guy. This is weaksauce.
-
to confirm something was placed in Will smith's coat pocket by Earl Hickey...wait...what are we talking about?
-
than ANY Friday the 13th movie ever made... I've seen them all and well, Mr. Bay doesn't have far to reach to make it entertaining. As long as Jason slams a hot chick in a sleeping bag into a tree, knocks a guys head off with one punch, and folds someone in half the wrong way, it'll be fun... Oh and I can't forget having at least 3 22 year old girls topless, and one who says "Fuck" a lot.
-
Sorry if I missed someone already calling this in skimming the talkback, but that ain't Jason. Most likely they are pulling a Part 3 and that's some stupid teen who will be killed and then provide Jason with his mask.
-
rotate the shit out of it and zoom, zoom like you've never zoomed before!!!!
-
So with the whole hockey mask deal, is he like Canadian or something?
-
I think that sums up all 10 (?) F13 movies pretty much... Happy to provide laughter..
-
lol nice one!
-
Its been a long time, got hazy on details. And the deal on Bay's Platinum Dunes remakes (Chainsaw, Hitcher) is that he takes these low budget iconic horror flicks, and thinks he's introducing them to a new generation by using modern effects and slicker photography. And yes, by no means is Friday The 13th a masterpiece. It was a simple exploitation flick to cash in on the far superior Halloween, with Tom Savini gore, to goose up the "horror". It is the model of Ebert's Dead Teenager Flick, where the characters exist only to get stoned, screw and get killed in some gruesome fashion. I think it has been raised to "classic" status is because almost thirty years later it's the best of its type. Remember all the hoilday themed horror rip-offs? New Years Day, April Fools Day, Mothers Day, My Bloody Valentine...etc,etc,etc.
-
over at trekmovie, 4 new Star Trek posters.
-
Did NOT suck! It was exactly what I wanted from a movie of that title. They need to get to work on the sequel to that shit rather than Bay-ifying F13.How can you not like it? HOW???
-
Now it has been totally confirmed.
-
In Jason V Freddy Hollyweird had a chance to a deep nasty horror on the destructive nature of peadophilia. Freddy Kruger liked to destry cghildren, whilst Jason was a victim of child abuse. The remake could have at least have made Jason Vorhees come back and killed his abusers in a really sick fashion a'la Saw style. But no we get more dirtytanned nubile Hollyweird teens getting murdered Columbo style. Waste of time and money. Let Jason rest in peace.
-
I thought it was BS as well, but a guy I knew had worked with some kind of news media that had captured footage digitally, and it was possible to do something very similarly to what they do in those cliched spy movies. Perhaps at normal size we just can't see the full resolution, and when it is enhanced or zoomed in, it's increased but the amount of picture information is so great that we can perceieve extra details. Or something.
-
smile. everything will fine.
-
guys????? These Michael Bay produced horror films always seem to have guys that look like they'd flunk the WWE wellness plan.
-
Cause that's what I'm seeing in this picture. Looks like Goldberg is stalking Anne Heche.
-
Lost me when kid Gollum showed up.
-
And now I know for future reference.
-
dead. They could make the picture bigger! In fact, they could blow it up.
-
after suffering a childhood trauma in which his mother makes him watch Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor on a loop for 15 years. The only way the camp counselors can stop Jason is by wearing Ben Affleck/Kate Beckinsale/Josh Hartnet masks which scare him so badly that he jumps into Crytal Lake and drowns himself.
-
cant they come up with a NEW movie?
really?
we need a reimagining of friday the 13th? really??
cant we all just shove toothpicks in our eyeballs and squirt hot sauce in them...
it would be more fun than seeing this crapola. -
I ain't all that upset about this remake. Let's face it, none of the Friday the 13th movies were all that great. Even the first one had some horrible acting, cheesy dialog, and not much of a plot or character development. What made Friday the 13th over and above other slasher movies was the creativity of the bloodshed and body count. Otherwise, the plot and production value was only minorly greater than a lot of other slasher movies of the period. From a pure movie and thrills and chills standpoint, I don't put Friday the 13th in the same category of Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Masacre, or Nightmare on Elm Street.
I don't have high hopes for this movie, but I won't be all that upset if they screw it up. -
Freddy vs. Jason...alas. Of course it was a bad movie, but in the grand style of bad B movies hearkening back to the 1980's glory days.It wasn't like AvP, where the shittiness cheapened original classic properties. It was Jason and Freddy, entertaining franchises to be sure, but hardly genre defining classics.Besides, NoES and F13 each had spawned countless shitty sequels by the time Freddy vs Jason was released. Alright, done now.

Probably just the mandatory 'Jerk-Off Pretends He's Jason' scene
by rex manning
C'mon, there's one in every F13th. -
I have never been one to criticize aintitcool.com for it's less than timely news articles, but I just saw this picture on the same website that had the original Robocop article. I mean it's cool and all but obviously Merrick did what I did- went to that site, saw the Jason thing in the sidebar, and thought "hey that's a news item!". There is nothing really wrong with it but I don't know. I guess I like to think that there is a crackerjack staff here that is looking for breaking news out there. I think more often than not, it just "comes" to them- via an email from someone, or a phone call from a director/actor, etc. They obviously really tried hard at the beginning, otherwise they wouldn't have all this street cred that would make famous people want to contact them. All I am asking is for aintitcool to return to maybe half of what it used to be in say.. 1999?
-
if you think you can zoom and enhance
-
There's about 30 pixels for Jason's entire face, blow that up and you'll just have a Jason mosaic.
-
Probably kills people by giving them atomic wedgies with their Calvin Klein undies.
-
That dude is Jason as far as I'm concerned.
-
ac slater loves the woods
-
Riculous
-
Just to clear that up. Jason wasn't "living" in water, he was trapped down there. Anyway back to this shit of a remake.

Poor Jason is about to get his shit ruined.

Good interview here. http://tinyurl.com/37rwpb

Killer style.
-
I mean, I really like him actually, but he gets no love here.
-
...which pretty much sums up the whole F13 series anyway. Only thing is I hate when they over use the fog machines in horror flicks. I mean shit! It looks like their in the rain forest or something!
-
Is that it means we will never get parts 11, 12 and 13 of the original series. In the back of my mind I was always hoping for Friday the 13th part 13. Now, that dream has been shattered. Couldn't they have just milked the old series for a few more years? Fuck.
-
Unknown user did a much better job than you. Your image is actually WORSE than what I get just viewing the image in IE blown up to 400% with no image manipulation at all. (yes I'm using IE, FF3 is crashing on me every five minutes)
-
All he wanted was some popcorn...
-
uh uh uh ... Just add water!! Grows in 1 to 2 weeks!! Makes a wonderful gift!!
-
You beat me to it.
... dopes. -
its an environmentalist messasge movie about debauchery and those immoral teens while jason, the ultimate park ranger has to clean camp.
-
I got the new one with this picture in it. A good chunk of recent "cool news" on this site appears to come directly from EW. "How fucked UP are you???"
-
Those whores were to busy making love to be watching my son jason.....kill her mommy, kill her!!
-
The original rules.
-
So I guess they decided to dump the whole "killer in the first Friday the 13 is really Jason's mom" angle from the original movie. That is quite a reimagining indeed.

I would prefer some one that has KNOWLEDGE in the horror genre instead of the MAKE-THINGS-GO-BOOM genre. It’s a fucking remake! You know this shit isn’t going to work. Bay is absolutely the worse choice to even be INVOLVED with horror movies! I can see it now: Jason has a new face; more Megatron-ish and flames on hist machette! No remake has ever been decent. Murder, nice to see you around bud. FMB, your ID has never been so true: FUCK MICHAEL BAY! Funny how its around craptastic crap that we gather. Its nice to see that Bay can bring so many people in common hatred and loathing for him and his shit.
-
Like every time anyone does anything, cars and building should explode. Like there should be one long explosion going on at all times, with people flying in the air. It should end with Michael "Cocaine" Bay vigorously endorsing his drug of choice.
-
Also, after Michael "Cocaine" Bay vigorously endorses his drug of choice, he too should explode.

And The Explosions Caused By The Explosions Should Explode
by laserpants
Hell, the ushers at the movie theatres should be instructed to throw grenades into the theatres, and both concession stands and parking lots should be rigged to explode.
-
*Snort!*
-
You and your ilk are the absolute lowest form of life. Just shut the fuck up and cream your cornhole for the next Transformers movie.
-
further proof that retards pay to see movies too... and yes, fuck michael "coke head hack" bay
-
Hugh Heffner?
I did not know that. -
Why the fuck did you even click on the link? If you have no interest in seeing a picture of Jason in the new flick, why bother coming here? So you can bitch and whine on the talkback? Have you nothing better to do? Get a life. Chumps! I'm looking forward to this reimagining. I grew up watching the Friday franchise. And I loved them. This movie is basically parts 1, 2 and 3 rolled into one big movie. Can't wait!
-
...how is Jason going to make 2 hours worth of huge explosions with just a knife?
-
Read my post. It's two above yours.
-
Not the "fuck all you whiney bitches" part, the bit about this redo being parts one thru three being one movie. :)
-
Easiest holloween costume evar.
-
let's just not voice any rebellious opinions actually. heck let's just have lobotomies while we're at it as well. but until then i'd rather have PEOPLE RIGHTFULLY GIVING SHIT WHAT NEEDS TO BE SHATTED instead of witness a talkback with 4 posts all high-fiving each other how this will rock.
-
To piss you off.
Did it work? -
Will there be a shot of the sun backlighting Jason during a decapitation or, like Laserpants noted, the explosions exploding?
-
Almost looks like he's wearing some kind of sheer shirt under a jacket..yikes!!!
-
Friday the 13th part 1 = The MOTHER is Jason. AND you don't actually SEE Jason 90% of the movie. This doesn't look that far out there then for most likely being the mom.

...besmallened my love for the word Embiggened.
-
Until I saw that I was under the impression , the new Jason was topless }but with a seriously fuc*ed up chest} under a tatty jacket ..or more worryingly , wearing a wet silk pink blouse under the jacket.Either of these would have at least been a bit of a daring take on the character compared to this.In the blown up image you can see its just a tan t-shirt with a few holes in it and Jason looks the same as he does in the last ten or so films.Nothing to get excited about here.

Bay isn't big on the story too dipshit. He's being more credited for setting and characters.
Marcus Nispel is responsible for the story, do some damn homework. -
he saved his jacket from FVJ, though it almost seems to have a goodie, guess to make it more 2008 because according to Smallville, hoodies make you look cool.

I hope that is the only shot of Jason in the movie... since
by ribbitking
All the true fans know how much screen time Jason got in the first movie... and we all know which movie he got the hockey mask in. I fucking predicted on an old thread here that we'd see Jason in a hockey mask in this 'remake'. I guess Bryan Singer should've put Richard Pryor in his Superman remake.
-
Has any one stopped to think that maybe this skinny tool in jeans is the dude Jason kills in order to get the mask in the first place? Alla Shelly from pt3.
-
That dude wasn't skinny, the whole premise of his character was he was fat and was there to get laid for the first time. I believe what the twist is it's kind of a remake of the first three, the mom is in it, i've seen who the actress is, but maybe they'll like highlight that, and Nispel said that in the first 12 minutes there's a twist that wont ruin the old story, so i believe they're sticking with part one, but they're also somehow cramming in 2 and 3 to make it one movie. I'm looking forward to it, the director kicked ass on the TCM remake, i can only imagine here.
-
No, Nispel isn't "responsible" for the story. Screenwriters Mark Swift and Damian Shannon are, do YOUR damn homework.
-
it is possible I was in some unreliable sites but nonetheless Bay isn't responsible and that's all I care about.
-
How many this week? 5? that's a tad lazy, dontcha think?
-
For a doctor you sure missed the point there, I was referring to the guy in the above photo being skinny(so clearly it's not Jason)and will turn out to be just the guy Jason gets the mask from in the manner of Shelly from pt3. But realy, does anyone give a shit any more? Just so long as they don't try "re-imagining" The Exorcist! God I hope I hav'nt just given Bay an Idea!!!
