Another totally F&*%ed Up teaser for SAW!!!

Crazy by oh_riginal	Jul 12th, 2004 06:45:18 AM
I like trailers that don't show you the entire plot, setup, middle act, and ending all at once. I'm not all hyped up about this flick, but my interest is up.

Trying too hard to be cool! by harosa	Jul 12th, 2004 06:50:36 AM
Am I the only one that finds the tag line How Fucked Up Is That? annoying and looking like they'e trying too hard to be self referential and cool? The movie looks good enough without that annoying "wink,wink" to the audience.
EI8HT??? by godoffireinhell	Jul 12th, 2004 07:28:11 AM
Looks like the sequel to friggin SE7EN. Lame.
I don't think that robot clown thing is scary at all. by rev_skarekroe	Jul 12th, 2004 08:29:05 AM
Just goofy. sk
I wanna say it looks gay SO bad... by TheWinterWarlock	Jul 12th, 2004 09:55:10 AM
But clowns scare the shit outta me, and movies that could possibly happen scare me even more. Having seen that teaser, I will never EVER in a million years purposely go see that movie. I still have nightmares from Dawn of the Dead (2004) that ruin my sleep and ZOMBIES AREN'T EVEN REAL!!! Thanks but no thanks.
Looks like something a 12 year old would make in an attempt to s by SalvatoreGravano	Jul 12th, 2004 10:12:30 AM
Want to see something truly scary and spend just a few minutes on it? Download and watch the recalled "Exorcist" trailer ("Something beyond comprehension...") and the first "Alien" teaser ("A word of warning..."). It's rather symptomatioc that two 30 year old film teasers are much scarier and more creative than all the shitfest of "horrors" that Hollywood puked out in the last decade, from all the pathetic Kevin Williamson junk to the moronic Chainsaw remake. All right, there were some good films in that wave, too - Wrong Turn, for instance - but they were drowned in all that idiotic remake/crossover/stupid sequel puddle, like diamonds thrown into pig shit.
As I was saying... by Some Dude	Jul 12th, 2004 10:54:50 AM
Stop crying. It looks enjoyable. We know that there is at least one good actor in the film and that there is a killer with a cool MO. What's not to like? Are some of you uncomfortable seeing fat guys get killed (with their shirts off, no less)? I'm not sure that the clown is a robot. I think the mask is hinged. Could be wrong.
While we're on the subject... by Some Dude	Jul 12th, 2004 11:03:42 AM
I watched the trailer again. Perhaps it is a robot. Now that I think about it, the killer gives the fat guy about two hours to escape. That seems so reasonable that it makes his fate even crueler. Picking a fat guy adds to the drama because there is no way in hell fattie is able to crawl over and under the razor wire without some part of his body hanging down and getting torn. What is that room? How does it seal? Ultimately, this scene reminds me of a contemporary update (serial killer, investigation, video tapes, robots) of the barbed-wire scene in "Suspiria," minus the hot chick and plus the fat guy.
WINDOWS MEDIA SUCKS!!!!!! by payton 34	Jul 12th, 2004 03:14:04 PM
that's all I have to say.
Are You Assholes So Jaded You Can't See? by Van Damned	Jul 12th, 2004 04:01:35 PM
This looks like it could be something special (if an excellent horror film can be described as 'special'), and you guys vomit out the usual "looks like.." and "the 80s were scarier..." garbage. Haven't you noticed that filmmakers have had to struggle against the MPAA & theatre chains for the past 15 years to put out anything that could even be considered marginally terrifying? Forget 'Aliens'. That was tame compared to 'The Hills Have Eyes' or 'Maniac'. Personally, I think this has potential. You can't tell me watching someone in this situation doesn't make you uncomfortable. It reminds me of films like 'Audition' and some early Klaus Kinski stuff. Stop acting like you're too cool for fuckin' school. You don't know what horror is, or you'd be showing us something because those who do... do. Those who can't... BITCH.
That was disturbing by Big Jim	Jul 12th, 2004 05:47:15 PM

Windows Media is the best! by Eyegore	Jul 12th, 2004 06:22:50 PM
You people who go on about how great quicktime is, try a little experiment. Right click on your quicktime movie and go full screen. Awww poor baby apple doesn't think you should be able to do it. YOU CAN'T HANDLE FULL SCREEN VIDEO FUCKTARD!! You don't deserve it you brainwashed lemmingling. PS: All media formats suck when streamed over the interweb so get over it.
Well, all I have to say is by Keyser Soze	Jul 12th, 2004 06:31:58 PM

This movie reminds me a bit of Fear Dot Com by SexyBeast	Jul 12th, 2004 06:59:58 PM
Thats not really a good thing either. I think the problem is the trailer or teaser just lacks in narrative. I don't really care that some fat guy is being tortured. That might be the fat fuck in front of me who went 20 miles per hour down the freeway while I was late for work. I'm glad he got raped by sharp wire. I need to know what the story is about before I'm intrigued.
Meh. by mysteryperfecta	Jul 12th, 2004 07:32:20 PM
I'm a little tired of movie psychopaths staging overly-elaborate murders. And I'll bet a gold brick that he'll also give clever clues to investigators, fostering his eventual capture (or escape? That's the twist!). I wonder if the killer's seemingly unconnected victims will have something in common. :0
I agree; tries to hard by PushTheButton	Jul 12th, 2004 08:23:40 PM
"How fucked up is that?" is the stupidest phrase ever. I'd see this movie, just to turn around in my seat with a big fake shock in my face and say "HOW FUCKED UP IS THAT?" to the guy behind me after every scene.
Quicktime... by SalvatoreGravano	Jul 12th, 2004 08:43:29 PM
Try pressing Control and F, twerp. Not that I like Quicktime. Trailers should be in XVid or DivX 5. Then go watch them in ZoomPlayer (which, incidentally, supports QT) or BSPlayer. Klang!
"A whack-job Christian" --> that would be the THIRD time, since by SalvatoreGravano	Jul 12th, 2004 08:48:15 PM
And, awful as "Resurrection" was, I suspect this whole "Saw" - with its ineptness and childishness, especially evident in that moronic tagline - will be even worse. But, of course, it will be hailed as "a masterpiece", because... IT'S AN INDIE FLICK!!! WOOHOO FOR THE INDIA... err, INDIES!!! Oh, BTW, if an American Indian went to India and made an independent film, would it be anti-PC to call it "an indie film"?
Oh, one more thing - I'll bet the trailer showed the "real face" by SalvatoreGravano	Jul 12th, 2004 08:53:12 PM
And, since a cliched ripoff NEEDS a "twist", it will be Someone We Saw, possibly even Someone We Saw The Whole Time. Hell, he'll probably be one of the two "prisoners", pretending to be his own captive to observe and bond with the actual prisoner, blahblah. Oooh, what a "twist" that would be.
All right, there were some good films in that wave, too - Wrong by Sicuv Uyall	Jul 12th, 2004 09:03:44 PM
You're either retarded, or your cousin was an extra in that movie.
I betcha eyegore has a little dell....... by payton 34	Jul 12th, 2004 09:48:46 PM
Not all video formats suck on the interweb (?).......quicktime doesn't.
"At three o clock this room will become.." what..? Didn't unde by Alcamaeon	Jul 12th, 2004 10:04:49 PM
I think there's too much fancy MTV camera work to be a good horror movie.
Media Player Does Suck by molon64	Jul 12th, 2004 10:20:50 PM
I can full screen my QuickTime no problem. Doesn't take anything special. Windows media is the worst codec availiable, and no one should be subjected to its POS video quality. QuickTime is the only way!
Inserting "How Fucked Up Is That" during the trailer is the best by jennababe	Jul 12th, 2004 10:33:02 PM

This looks pretty sick, so I'm looking forward to it. The comments here are pretty spot on though the "How F*&D..." line is abit obtuse, and the Wayland Flowers and Madam comment killed me...rock on.

Dude, that was funny. Seriously, thanks!
Was that Jet Li? by UncleSam	Jul 12th, 2004 11:52:21 PM
Is Jet Li doing a non-martial arts movie? Interesting move if it's him.
Can someone please tell me what he said. the Room will turn int by Alcamaeon	Jul 13th, 2004 12:31:22 AM

At 3 o'clock this room will become your tomb by fenario80	Jul 13th, 2004 01:30:23 AM
or maybe "a tomb"

Nope, I'm not on AOL, I don't have pathetic numbers in username, by SalvatoreGravano	Jul 13th, 2004 07:44:24 AM
And calling AOL yanks "retarded" would be a compliment for them, sadly. :-D Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum, that's what the Aoloser is. (This is in a language they don't teach in Chicago/Noo Jork/LA South Central schools). Boing!
I thought it was looking good by Towers	Jul 13th, 2004 11:35:49 AM
Maybe it's just me but it was looking decent. Gory, gothic, reminded me of Seven for some reason.
In Reply, Mr Teaser... Very FUCKED UP! by stompysdad	Jul 13th, 2004 12:50:59 PM
Full credit going to whoever made that tag line. I really don't give gay-cruise fist fuck about anyone will wants to diss the tag-line. To be honest, I've seen a lot of trailers in my life and I have never heard a (fairy)big company promote a film from that angle like lion gate have. The newest tease I didn't really get but the first really is the most disturbing teaser I might of ever seen. It truely horrified me. I think this film and the tag-line is going to piss a lot of people off. TRUST ME.
i saw SAW, and it sucked by taintyourwagon	Jul 13th, 2004 07:25:12 PM
I checked this pile of crap out at the sundance festival this year, and it was pretty bad. Danny Glover should be ashamed of his acting in it too, pretty much his career low. all in all, pretty cool setup, weak execution, and a laughable ending that will have you leaving the theater going, "damn, i should have watched se7en again instead of this shit".
I wouldn't call it Gothic... by Maladict	Jul 16th, 2004 05:53:20 AM
but I'll check it out. And PushTheButton, that'll be something to keep in mind... :)
