SAW IV

[The Chad Cometh]

IT' MILKING TIME! Even tho they're trying to get every last dollar they can out of this franchise, I'm still kinda cursious as to what'll happen in this one. How bout you?

Quint: I know that there?s a lot of talk about the next film [SAW 4]. There was a setup in the third one, where we could actually discover a little bit more about Jigsaw, like a back history with him. Do you think he will pop up in the next one and maybe seen in a flashback?
[Tobin nods his head up and down, silently. We both laugh]
Tobin Bell: I know it doesn?t make much of an interview, when somebody just nods their head, but yeah? I do.

Quint: For me it?s not a SAW movie without that character... But it seems that each movie seems to delve deeper and deeper into your character. After SAW 3, I?m like ?OK, he?s gone, but it seems like they?re setting up??
Tobin Bell: I haven?t read the script for SAW 4, so I find it difficult to comment. I don?t know where they?re going, but I can tell you that I?m in it and that I look forward to the very same things you?re talking about. They?re filling him out in ways that are compelling and interesting.

Saw 4/5 News

Tobin Bell has confirmed that he will be reprising his role as 'Jigsaw' in the next two SAW movies. I know this story starts out sounding retarded, since his character obviously died in SAW 3 - believe me, I thought that too - but apparently, the film-makers already had planned for at least one more film in the franchise, and had specifically shot certain scenes in a manner which would help facilitate this.

With that revelation, the story actually sounds pretty cool to me. Co-producer Oren Koules says that "there are three or four scenes in 'Saw III' that seem very innocuous and benign but when you see 'Saw IV' and they flash back to those, they have a whole different meaning. We shot scenes for 'Saw III', knowing they'd be in 'IV.' We knew what we wanted to do for 'IV' so we actually shot scenes for 'III' but tried to make them very innocent scenes that didn't really make sense, but when it comes back, it's a huge part about 'Saw IV.'"
Filming on the next installment begins in April, with Darren Lyn Bouseman (SAW 3) again directing.

wow

SAW III was awsome i love how saw has a story line instead of just 2 hours of a bucher going at some poor bastard in the chair (hostles good to but it gets old)

when it come out?

[GnFnR87]

well supposedly its not a prequel soo i dont understand how this is possible. Jigsaw is dead...


the first two were awesome, and i thought Saw 3 was decent.

[The Chad Cometh]

Well the official story is that Jeff must now "play a game" to save his daughter, one presumably consisting of all kinds of nasty bits.

What I'm curious about is that the director has said that there are scenes in the 3rd one which don't make a whole lot of sense by themselves but that link in heavily with scenes for this one. Has definite potential.

well thats interesting. i thought the third one was solid, but it felt a bit forced to me. like they tried too hard to top the second one (which they didnt in my opinion).

"Everyone's thinking, 'Oh, they're doing a prequel,' but we're not. Is Tobin back? One hundred percent he is. Is he badass in this? One hundred percent he is. Is Tobin only in flashbacks? No, he's not. Is Tobin dead? Yes he is. Is Tobin a ghost? No, he's not." - Director Darren Bousman

- Fucking Bizarre!

This is pretty exciting news.  I just read on IMDB about Saw 4 and it looks like Jigsaw will be back in the form of video tapes he left behind for Jeff who now has to save his daughter.  Should be cool...the first Saw was a complete mind fuck when they pulled everything together at the end...it should be interesting how they do it again.

ok, now this is milkage.

The director/writer/producer (leigh? someone) was on ABC television in the early 90s.
 
He was the film critic for a Saturday morning show "Recovery". Live bands + other good funny cool 'out there' stuff. I can't describe it any other way as I was usually 'recovering'........ Almost the best thing to wake up to (or come home to) after hitting the dance floor Friday night (I 'remember' dancing to a lot of Kylie tunes.......) 

I also 'remember' waking up one morning to find Silverchair rockin' out the ABC studio!

We always knew that Leigh would go far!

We always knew that Leigh would go far! 

He didn't go far enough. I'm starting a fund, if we all throw in $5 we can book him on one of those private space flights. Not sure we'll have enough for the round-trip ticket though, sucks.

The first SAW was okay for what it was. The following two were pretty awful, I thought. Boy is my thumb not on the pulse of. . . living. . . people. 

[stolat]

Oh........ I've only seen Saw 1.
Or was that just called Saw?

Video/audio tapes and pre-designed trappings, anyone?

[Butch Français]

haven't seen any of them, they any good?

well that depends:

do u like horror films?

If u do, then you wont like Saw

do u like wooden acting and zero plot?

Saw could be for you then....

I loved the way a surgeon couldnt work out the guy a meter away from him wasnt dead - ya'd think the absence of rigour mortis, the colour of the skin, the fact the body was frakking breathing (!) would all give it away - but nope.

oh come on you're just mad they got ya in the end?

He had no idea how long the body had been there, the muscle relaxers minimized his breathing... Plus that wasnt his first concern...

On the Subject of Saw IV, the tape he coverd in wax in saw III, has been bothering me since I first saw it.. Hopefully we'll find out what that was...

They're decent mindfuck popcorn flicks.....not the best of modern horror cinema by any means, but passable movies.  The best part about them, really, is the creative "traps" and ways they kill people.  They're not much in the way of real scares....going with the more modern "gross out" horror (and even then, the gore isn't all that spectacular).  But the toys are interesting feats of engineering....and the standard "mindfuck" ending is always interesting to try to figure out.

They're certainly not high brow cinema (and no one should really expect them to be) but for Halloween fun, they make a nice date night or whatever.

[GnFnR87]

at least they have an interesting premise. Hostel is basicallly?just people getting tortured for two hours.

i like the whole concept of Jigsaw being close to dying, and punishing people who don't value life, like drug addicts etc. and making them "play a game" to live. i always found that really cool and thought provoking.?

although i will admit the acting in the first one wasnt good, the rest of them had decent acting, especially for horror movie standards.
