    I don't see how they could get a script together, cast, film, cut, and release a movie in under 8 months. Maybe they mean by next October.

    Wait... how do you do a prequel to the original Friday the 13th but still have Jason as the star? Jason wasn't even around until the second movie. Unless this one is going to be about Jason as a kid, I don't see where it would fit in. Of course, logic has never played a huge role in Friday the 13th, now has it? :p 

    And I'm heartbroken that they're choosing not to pick up from the end of Jason X. :cry 




    :p

    Hmmm...perhaps so. Still, though, it seems like running a company that's "scrambling" to make an Oct release date AND going into production on a blockbuster in May make for a lot on one's plate.

    Maybe I'm just grasping at straws in hopes that Michael Bay will pull out of the project.

    At any rate, AWESOME to see you Eleanor, my old school Halo 2 comrade in arms.

    Production companies never handle just 1 movie. There's no such thing as giving 1 movie your undivided attention. It just doesn't happen.

    I was afan of the friday the 13th stuff when I was young...but it kinda worries me that Bay is on board. If he is willing to work on such a schlocky franchise, what is he gonna do to Transformers?

    Like him or not, his work as a producer on Texas Chainsaw Massacre yielded a successful and faithful retelling of the original story. He has skills, it's just that we're use to seeing them put to use in a big budget, Jerry Bruckheimer sorta way.



    Which isn't a bad thing, IMO, but that's neither here nor there.
