I'm kind of surprised at Saw X tbh. I've seen a lot more excitement for it in my online circles than any of the previous installments.
I guess I'm finally in a place where advertising can't get to me because I didn't even know it was a thing until just now. It's the kind of thing I'd go watch in theaters if I had time.
I had no idea either but it's crazy that they're still going. They're picking back up the main storyline? Who is even left to continue it?
I don't watch the saw movies but from what I understand this one takes place between the first and second ones.
Ah so we're just going to keep flashbacking to when
SAW3 spoiler
Jigsaw was alive. They really wrote themselves into a corner by killing him so early.I don't think they expected it to keep going like this. There are something like 7 original Nightmare on Elm Street movies and Freddy is a horror icon. There are 11 original Friday 13th movies and Jason wasn't really a part of a couple of them.
I think they just didn't plan for him to still be going. If they keep doing this they'll need to have him meet Freddy and get dream powers.
