Hello everyone! Since Neil and Cole are in jail, I’ve been newly deputized to actually write posts. Be gentle with me.

I wish I could say that my first post ever was an incredible look at an upcoming movie that everyone’s excited about, but it’s not. Not only is it about the new version of A Nightmare on Elm Street, but it’s not even a very great first look. Freddy’s face is all obscured, which makes for great marketing, but doesn’t make for anything else.

It was pretty huge news when they decided to remake the movie, and it was even bigger news when they announced that Jackie Earle Haley was going to take up the role, but this picture could be anyone. Not exactly sure that’s what fans want right now. I’m not even sure if they want a remake or not, actually.

What do you think?

sucks you cant see his face but it looks like its going in the right direction its just great seeing freddy again even if its not robert englund

Englund was more than the makeup and so will Haley. IMHO, Haley is the better actor so it will be a better movie.

It's a decent picture in the sense that you know whatever is coming will be pretty cool, whether or not audiences like it. Jackie Earle Haley is a pretty creepy looking guy to begin with, so they probably didn't have to go overboard with the make-up.

There you go with the Neil and Cole in jail thing again...
