the odds of getting a new movie

What's your take on getting a new Friday the 13th movie? Slim to none, or just none?

I've tried to be optimistic about getting a new film after the lawsuit ended, but I just don't know anymore.

It all depends...

Do you want a F13 with just Pamela being the killer or do you want a F13 with Jason without the origin story?

Jason!!!!

Then we would have to wait for Sean Cunningham, it will be Jason just without Pamela and the whole origins.

I'm always optimistic, but honestly, so much time has passed that I have no idea anymore. I would certainly love to see one, this series deserves better! But it's money that rule the world, not what fans want.

They use to care...then it was pure money grabs...I do hope we get something actually new to the storyline.

I guess I'll have to get Sean on speed dial.

Let's make them care about a new money grab.

the sad thing is there's a whole generation out there that has never seen one of these

it's been 15 years!

What's sad is Jason is a centerpiece of the franchise and there's a chance newcomers won't hear the origin story.

I used to be optimistic about a new movie, especially after the lawsuit was over. Hell, for all its flaws (in my opinion) the remake made almost $100 million, so there's definitely money to be made.

At this point, I'd go see whatever they put in theaters. I was cautiously optimistic about the Peacock prequel series. I wasn't really sure what kind of story they could tell since we know the backstory of Mrs. Voorhees and the camp, but if it was done right it could at least be a fun ride.

At this point I've pretty much given up hope of getting a new film, reboot or otherwise.

slim to none now with this jason universe stuff. The studios want a cut if they make a new movie.. sean and victor want to cash it quickly as fast as possible before they even negotiate with the studios. This could take YEARS again.

Yeah Sean Cunningham said due to the pandemic alot of stuff has increased with economy so I agree with him but 2-3 years for a new movie!? Jesus!

We may ne lucky if it's only 2-3 years for another movie at this point.

That also puts into question on who's writing and who's directing it...

And how they'd fight over the money and rights?

So I'm going to contradict my earlier post (again), but sometimes getting no movie might be better than getting a bad movie or rather a movie that fans wouldn't appreciate. Just look at the mess that the Halloween series has become.

True!

Though If they just went to a back to basic Friday movie i think people would be happy

Campers off to Crystal Lake

On the other hand, if a certain character makes people talk about him on the internet for the past 25 years, well doesn't that make the whole thing somehow succesful? New articles are constantly generated on various websites about all the famous horror franchises and it's never going to change. I think that's a certain degree of achieving something, whether a new movie is made or not. I don't think anyone has ever pinpointed this before. It's probably more important than getting a new movie.

Weird to think there's a whole generation out there who has never seen a movie of the series though

15 years since the last movie

And virtually no way to tell them the backstory in some areas.

That's pretty weird, yeah. And kids these days, they won't even bother seeing it, because the moment you tell them something was made in the 80s, they don't bother with it. They don't even know what 80s is.

Or they think it's outdated.

To update, Sean Cunningham himself went on to say the Prequel TV series for Crystal Lake is still being produced but his stance on a new movie is 100% so we don't be getting a new film until around 2027.

Assuming anyone can agree on a plot and writing credits?
