Freddy vs Jason?

Actually, as I understand it, they got the new guy to play Jason because he was bigger than Kane Hodder. I think they wanted a guy that was physically larger and more impressive so as to further contrast between Jason and Fred's presence.

Freddy is a little guy, but physical ability isn't where his power is.

Jason is a hulking tank.

Jason will win though, because he's less evil. Afterall, he's
just a zombie animated by his mum while Freddy's a demon
child molestor. And didn't they get a new actor to play Jason

I have to take exception to this; Freddy was a child-murderer, as stated in the first film. Not a child molester. Small thing, but ya know, kind of a pet peeve.

Also, KEn Kirzinger is taking over for Kane Hodder(who's already an imposing physical presence) for that much needed *sarcasm, activate!* 2 inches. Couldn't they have just put Mr. Hodder in boots?

I'm hoping Jason wins, and expecting it. Robert Englund wants to stop doing the movies but wants to give Freddy a proper sendoff; Jason still really has two more movies to do(to bring the series to 13).
 

I heard a rumor that if Freddy vs. Jason does really well, there will be a sequel where the two of them team up to take on Ash (from Army of Darkness). Man oh man do I hope thats true! :D

Personally, I think that they replaced Kane because he A.) the new guy worked cheaper or B.) they think Kane's getting too old.

And it should be obvious who's going to win. After all, Jason X took place in the future! ;)

I'm really looking forward to this film even though I only like 2 Friday movies (Jason Lives, the 1st zombie Jason, and Jason X) and I hate the Nightmare movies (I don't find Freddy funny or scary, just irritating). However, I am a big fan of monster vs monster flicks ever since I first saw Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman and all those Godzilla movies.

And guess who I'm rooting for. :D

As for a winner, the way I see it, it can go two ways:

Freddy manipulates Jason into doing his dirty work for him. Eventually, Freddy pushes Jason too far ( or maybe it's revealed that Freddy was somehow responsible for Jason's mom's death or something) and Jason turns on Freddy. Jason destroys Freddy in the real world (which means he can still be alive in the dreamland if they want to do sequels or let Englund retire the character).

Or the same situation as above except that they go for a Wolfman/Frankenstein or Wolfman/Dracula ending witht the 2 characters locked in combat when some outside force hits them, burrying them, causing them to fall, etc..

If Jason wins, I hope they put him up against Michael Meyers next. Put a final nail in the Halloween franchise, please! They've all gone downhill since #2.

BTW, did you know that Jason met Leatherface once in a Topps comic book? The cannibal clan took a liking to Jason and more or less adopted him. However, Jason finally snapped after watching Leatherface's brother constantly abuse him.

But, when Jason tried to help (by cutting the brother's head off), Leatherface turned on him (the ungrateful jerk :)). The fight was brief and ended when Leatherface stabbed Jason and left him for dead.

That's really the only way you could have ended it. Leatherfaced woldn't have really stood a chance since he's just a human being (as far as I know).

Jason Vs The Evil Dead would rock, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it.

What are some good match-ups? Jason Vs Terminator. Jason Vs Dracula 2000. Jason Vs Predator (talk about the ultimate prey). Jason Vs Star Trek (Capt. Janeway, the lights are out in the holodeck, could you go and check it out?).

Or, maybe they could put Robocop after him?
 

I have serious soft spot for Freddy...and I liked New Nightmares...
So my vote goes for Freddy. But if he goes out with a bang, I want Jason to go against Chucky and Mike Myers. Three way onslaught. :)
