@@isaacsanchez8651That & Freddy & Jason (original ending) meeting Pinhead (Hellraiser) in Hell Both of these what if Freddy vs. Jason sequels could’ve happen after their 1st crossover film.
I remember that at a press event for this movie they treated it like a pre fight weigh in for Freddy and Jason, they even goth the actors in full makeup and costume for it. Now THAT is how you promote a movie!
Fun fact, the original ending was supposed to be both Freddy and Jason ending up back in hell and encountering Pinhead from the Hellraiser series, but they couldn’t secure the rights.
The actor who played Jason in this film was supposed to play Jason in Friday the 13th Part VII: Jason Takes Manhattan, but that was scrapped when Kane Hodder returned to reprise the role. Ken actually played the big cook Jason throws in the diner! Glad he got a chance to play Jason - it's easily one of my favorite versions of the character.
I remember on the dvd commentary from years ago they said when Jason smashes through the door in the lab, none of the actors knew that was gonna happen. So when they all screamed and ran off that was their genuine reactions. 😂
Seeing FVSJ in the theater on opening night in 2003 felt like going to a WWE or a boxing match crossed with Rocky Horror. People were chanting "FRED-DY, FRED-DY" OR "JAY-SON, JAY-SON".. they were yelling at the characters, they were stomping the floor like the bleachers at a football game. It was LOUD, it was insane.. it was maybe the best time ive ever had at the theater.
I saw it on opening night too. It was when half of America was struggling for power. The theater was open and had AC!!! I saw that movie twice that night 😂😂 my grandmother bought me the tickets because I was just 16
For clarification they were both in Hell, Freddy found Jason in Hell, and used the last of his powers to resurrect him in the real world, so he could generate enough fear for Freddy to escape Hell and return
@@marquisdesade3025compared to previous drafts which contorted themselves into pretzels to get the characters together, this version is positively streamlined.
I kinda see it as a mini callback to him killing the sheriff in part 6 where he folds the sheriff backwards, this is probably a stretch but i like to think thats what they’re were going for
It’s one more Jason movie which is Friday The 13th(2009)(Remake). After that it’s only right to start the Halloween series! You did Freddy you did Jason now it’s time for Michael because they are mainly considered the big 3.
Also … what? Big 3? The way it goes is Michael, Jason, Chucky & Freddy. There’s the big 4. It’s never been reduced to 3, don’t disrespect Chucky like that 😰
@@packedentertainment2866 Chucky is definitely a icon BUT I think at a point in time Michael, Jason, and Freddy were considered top 3 in terms of being scary. If you ever seen the dvd Boogeyman: The Killer Compilation(2001) they had Freddy, Michael, and Jason in this order as The Scariest Boogeymen on Film.
This is like the slasher movie equivalent of watching every MCU movie leading up to Avengers Endgame. Also you can see from their fights why Freddy and Jason were chosen as guest characters for Mortal Kombat 9 and MKX. In MKX Jason actually has a cool feature for one of his variations where when he’s beaten he gets struck by lightning, sits up, and keeps fighting.
@@SwKinfinite Or was Freddy Vs Jason the equivalent of Universal Monsters? If y’all want to go there (Marvel comics notwithstanding), then oh yes we can credit the actual OG’s of shared cinematic universes: Dracula, The Wolf Man, Frankenstein, Invisible Man, etc. since they of course did it first. 😎
Kane Hodder got the script and wanted the movie for years and he thought he was going to be Jason but he found out they were using someone else and I don't believe they told him. We don't know if it was the producers or Ronny Yu who wanted someone else as Jason. Kane Hodder was devastated for years and wished he was Jason in FVJ.
@@Garbageman0 Stokley Chaffin had a bug up her ass about Kane for indiscernible reasons and she made the decree "Kane Hodder will not be Jason in this movie." HOWEVER, when the fans found out, they engaged in a letter-writing campaign (which I participated in) to get him back into the movie. Because of the massive fan backlash, the producers at New Line called a meeting and they screened "Jason X." About midway through one of the producers (who I hope wasn't Bob Shaye, but probably was) said "I don't get it. What's so special about this guy?" And we failed.
Kane is Jason, it’s that simple! Yes, many actors have played the role but it’s Kane that gave jason an identity with his characteristics that we identify with. He basically took what CJ graham started in part 6 and added more to it and gave us a signature Jason Kerziinger played a slow lumbering, lil aggression, sympathetic version of the character that took me out of the film. Not his fault tho but I just didn’t like it
In a surprising bit of good continuity, the pills the "teenagers" (🙄) are given to stop them from dreaming is the same medication Nancy was taking in Nightmare 3 that Dr. Gordon suggested giving the patients in the hospital. Also the same hospital Will and Mark are patients at is the same hospital from 3
Until I literally watched all the movies with Freddy again I totally forgot those were the same pills Nancy was taking, love the callbacks from the original movies.
The ending with Freddy winking was supposed to make it clear that he wasn't dead. That led to the possibility of a FvJ or a Nightmare on Elm Street sequel. There have been rumors since 2018 that Blumhouse wanted to get the rights for NoES and F13 so they could make a Freddy vs Jason vs Michael movie.
Oh no, no thanks. After what they allowed David Gordon Green to do with Michael in Kills & Ends & after what they allowed him to do yet again by ruining another iconic franchise in The Exorcist… no thanks. Blumhouse shouldn’t be controlling these characters.
When Freddy is "killed" after being brought to the real world it only sends him back to the dream world, which is where he wants to be anyway. Lori bringing Freddy to the real world does nothing because he still has plenty of fear that is in their minds and the kids at school for Freddy to be resurrected back to the dream world by the dream demons and not go to hell. Nancy "kills" Freddy in Elm 1 and comes back the next day and kills her mother. Elm 2 sees Freddy gets "killed" comes back the next day and completely hijacks the school bus into the sunset. Freddy doesn't take his first legitimate defeat until Elm 3.
This movie is James' Skyrim. Never stops revisiting it. Love how Freddy and Jason contrasts one another perfectly. The slow and silent dude who drowned to death vs the agile and talkative dude who burned to death.
Fun fact: the hypnocil was mentioned by Nancy in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3. It was a drug she was using herself and one she was suggesting the staff prescribe for the patients in the third film.
Ken Kirzinger was actually in Jason Takes Manhattan. During the diner scene, Kirzinger plays the cook who Kane Hodder's Jason throws across the counter.
I just noticed when Will is first shown in the institute getting his meds, he looks at the TV that’s reporting the murders at Lori’s house…the news station is KRGR news. Like Krueger. I’ve seen this movie a million times and never noticed it lol.
When Mark grabs the security badge at the hospital, the name on the badge is K. Park which is either a reference to Kristen Parker or a wild coincidence.
Yes, that is 100% Evangeline Lilly in the background. She did a bit of work in Vancouver before getting her big break. When I first saw her on Lost I thought, "Hey! That's the woman from the late night phone chat tv commercial."
This might be the best crossover since the original King Kong VS Godzilla. The original planned ending had Freddy and Jason end up in Hell, then Pinhead appears asking, "What seems to be the problem, gentlemen?" Unfortunately, New Line didn't have the rights to the Hellraiser franchise, so it was scrapped.
This isn’t exactly a villain vs villain movie because Jason isn’t exactly a villain. Even one of the actors who played Jason said he was more like an animal defending his territory than some murderous, sadistic psychopath like Freddy.
He's been in water several times during various Friday films with zero fear so the continuity with that scene sucked. In fact this movie ended with Jason calmly walking out of the lake carrying Freddy's severed head. Where was thst fear of water then? They couldn't even keep continuity within the film itself.
@@joaquinmuniz3055 The scene could have worked if it was shown that Freddy was messing with Jason's mind and doing something like making him fixate on his original drowning which then caused him to react badly to water and allowed Freddy to weaponise it. Having Jason immediately fear it and that giving Freddy the idea to use water just made no sense.
That last scene of Jason walking out of the lake could be interpreted a purgatory where they both remain even though it resembles Crystal Lake. Jason’s holding Freddy’s head as a trophy rather than a friendship. Freddy just winks at the audience because since he is no longer in the real world (and being the evil spirit/dream demon he is) he can shapeshift back to whatever he pleases in that realm to torture Jason for eternity.
Jason Ritter is also Dipper in Gravity Falls. And is married to Melanie Lynskey, who plays Shauna in Yellowjackets, Beatrice in Over the Garden Wall, and Rose in Two and a Half Men.
I mean Freddy was always dead. He said everyone forgot. He needs people to know him and fear him to get into their dreams. It’s why he doesn’t always kill right away. He needs to instill the fear to give him power to take life in a dream.
Jason X takes place AFTER Freddy vs Jason! The beginning is in 2010 and the rest of the movie hundreds of years in the future! FvJ takes place in 03’ or 04’. Jason X is actually the last story in the OG Jason’s timeline even though it came out before FvJ.
Jason is not afraid of water normally. However, this is in a nightmare. By the way, Jason in this movie is played by Ken Kirzinger who played waiter at resturant in Jason takes Manhattan.
"How sweet, Dark Meat" makes Freddy sound racist lol but it's a play on a line from A Nightmare on Elm street Part 4 where Freddy says "How sweet, fresh meat". Also...Freddy is probably a racist lmaoooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lolll, a racist killing mostly whites and barely any blacks. Yall really be reaching at any point possible🤣🤣🤣🤣. Fyi Kelly is dark and that made her stand out. If she were in a wheel chair, he would've mentioned the wheel chair instead, if she were fat, he would've mentioned her weight. That's how Freddy Krueger is.
18:33 The one time someone remembers a name and they are literally just an extra with one second of screen time 😂 love y'all and the reactions. I've been waiting for this since the first Freddy 😊
The “Jason being afraid of water” thing doesn’t bother me as much as it does some people. Yeah, the waking life Jason would never be afraid of water, but in his dreams, in his subconscious, it would make sense that the memories of his drowning as a child would stick in the back of his mind.
It's really the only way it makes sense. Besides, it isn't really water itself that he's afraid of, it's being trapped in it and drowning. As a big scary gigantic murder zombie he can stroll out of the water any time he wants, but he was trapped in that dream world... trapped... plus water.... equals... childhood trauma. Notice he didn't care about it at all when he was awake and came out of it to give Freddy the ol' reach around Sunday surprise.
Fun Fact 3: Another concept was having a backstory set where Freddy was one of the counselors at Crystal Lake Camp that set up Jason's drowning because he wanted to cover up "Assaulting" Jason. The writers felt that was too far even for this version of Freddy.
Can confirm. He wasn't a counselor however, Freddy was born in 1942 making him 15 when jason died. The idea was that he was a fellow camper who drowned jason, jason was his first kill.
I think it's the back stories of both of them. They make Jason seem a little more sympathetic. Jason was a victim of bullying, while Freddy was a murderer and child molester.
@@WickedXombieDigiKingWRONG! He was always implied to be a child molester. That was the original idea for the OG film, and we see him licking photos of children and it’s explicitly stated he likes children, especially little girls. Not to mention he’s always perving.
I grew up with this movie and am a massive fan of Lost and I’ve never noticed Evangeline Lily in this until Roxy pointed it out lol. Great reaction Shejects!
Jason wasn't initially aware that he was being used by Freddy. The moment that was revealed, it pissed Jason off. And the reason he let Lori kill Freddy, is because he's more cleaver than a lot of people give him credit for. The 2 kids won't be as afraid of Freddy if they're allowed to be the ones to strike the final blow. This is his middle finger to Freddy.
Jason X is technically after Freddy vs Jason but it was made before FvJ. Since its farther in the future 2010 to 400 years later. This one is in 2003 making this before Jason X.
This movie was a monument in the entertainment industry. Still not happy they replaced Kane Hodder as Jason but Ken Kirzinger was still a pretty decent addition
41:56 Did y'all NOT pay attention to the first 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' movie when Nancy's mother says Freddy was "a filthy child murderer who killed dozens of kids in the neighborhood."?! They just turned the valve up on his character, he was ALWAYS meant to be creepy and disgusting. 😂
Nice catch Roxy, that was indeed Evangeline! Freddy Vs. Jason came out in 2003 right before 'Lost' the next year. I remember when she was on Electric Playground back in the day showing off gaming tech stuff.
I was 10 years old lmao I remember my friends parents took us we snuck in some much chips and junk food it was awesome except when I got home and was in my room alone i was scared af 😂😂😂😂
Robert Englund said he couldn’t play the roll anymore due to his age and his torso shifted (doesn’t have his hourglass figure anymore) and he lost Freddy’s silhouette. He liked Jackie Earle Haley’s version but not the backstory they went with. He’s also said that Kevin Bacon would be a good person to take on the roll cause he respects the genre.
Thanks for going through the series with us. Everybody of the RR crew rocks, but you two have been my favorite pair. Keep up the awesome work, everyone!
Alien vs Predator. I recommend Ginger Snaps too. Gibb (the menthol smoker gf) is in them, Katherine Isabelle. She's a scream queen. You guys could also watch the Scary Movie franchise. After watching the Scream movies of course ✌🏻🤘🏻Will was played by Jason Ritter, son of the late John Ritter
This movie is stricly for the fans that is why it works so well. The fans have been begging to have this happen and so they finally did it with this movie. Jason Ritter is John Ritter's son and a very talented actor in my opinion. Oh girls you must watch at least the first movie of Ginger Snaps even if it's only on your own time it is a must see in my book. I love this movie so much and am glad they did the fans justice in that regard. Any way grate reaction as always girls and keep it up.
The guy who took on the Jason role did a fine job, but it still really disappoints me that they didn't have Kane Hooder reprise the role after being the longest running person to portray the character. He was responsible for giving Jason all of his little mannerisms and his hulking presence. They went with the guy in this just because he was a few inches taller and they wanted him to be much taller than Freddy, but the could have done that with Kane Hooder with lifts in his shoes and camera angles.
I'm confused how She didn't get the wink. It was showing that Jason won by walking out with his head, but then Freddy winks showing he's not Dead because they wanted to pursue a sequel.. Pretty much a post credit scene
@@marcosavalos2502na it’s just a set up that he didn’t in fact die he was in the real world when Lori took his head I checked a long time ago because I was a little confused.
@@TheActorBrandonRodriguezI mean doesn’t really matter but when looked up it does say Jason won even tho Lori did the final blow Freddy lost, the ending was more for a possible set up for another movie that obviously didn’t happen.
I think I remember someone interpreting the ending and the wink as Freddy still sort of controlling Jason. Why would Jason take Freddy's head could have just left it in the lake to rot, Freddy got him to take it and is going to continue to use Jason to do his dirty work for him.
teh novelization of the movie explains that jason is only afraid of water deep in his subconscious, you can see freddy smiling as he lures jason out onto the pier during their final battle because he thinks jason will be handicapped but it doesnt work when jason is awake
Sadly Kane Hodder isn't portraying Jason in this movie ( even thought most Fans wanted it) , Kane himself was disappointed especially after all the hard work he put in playing the character
Good call on Evangeline Lilly, I have seen this so many times, never saw her. She was uncredited though but it was her. Jason Ritter, the son of the late great John Ritter is in this one.
Another trivia is that Jason's actor Ken Kirtzinger is the same guy who played the tall chef in Jason Takes Manhattan that got thrown into the mirror in the cafe.
Monica Keena was also in a really funny show on Fox called "Undeclared" a while back, with Seth Rogan, Jay Beruchel, and Charlie Hunnam. Man I remember the Freddy VS Jason idea was being passed around to a lot of studios and was ironically in development hell for a while after Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday. The marketing for this movie was crazy once the film was finally shot, with there being an actual Boxing style Weigh-in and stats being called out by legendary Boxing announcer Michael Buffer. After every kill people were high-fiving each other in the theater I went to on opening night...damn those were some awesome times.
When she said “queue the metal” or whatever she said… the song that played during the fight is Chimaira. My cousin Mark is the frontman/vocalist. They’re from Strongsville Ohio.
There was originally going to be a movie sequel to this crossover, but it got canceled. Instead, it continues in the comics with Ash Williams (Evil Dead) in "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash" (2007-2008) and then in "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash: The Nightmare Warriors" (2009).

@@joaquinmuniz3055 The scene could have worked if it was shown that Freddy was messing with Jason's mind and doing something like making him fixate on his original drowning which then caused him to react badly to water and allowed Freddy to weaponise it. Having Jason immediately fear it and that giving Freddy the idea to use water just made no sense.
That Evangeline Lily spot was crazy!
That was definitely her. We all have to start somewhere.
Blood pouring from the wall hanger..."Did that go into him?"
😂😂😂 I was laughing at that part too. It's like "Nah it just broke a ketchup packet he had in I back pocket. He's fine."
That last scene of Jason walking out of the lake could be interpreted a purgatory where they both remain even though it resembles Crystal Lake. Jason’s holding Freddy’s head as a trophy rather than a friendship. Freddy just winks at the audience because since he is no longer in the real world (and being the evil spirit/dream demon he is) he can shapeshift back to whatever he pleases in that realm to torture Jason for eternity.
I'VE BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING FOR THIS WHEN YOU STARTED THE FRIDAY SERIES!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE 2009 REMAKE
The Jason fire walk stunt was practical, NOT CGI.
John Ritter's son is in this movie and John was in Bride Of Chucky. Very cool.
Yes and John was also in the original IT
@@jim1771 Yes he was. I had forgotten about that.
Jason Ritter is also Dipper in Gravity Falls. And is married to Melanie Lynskey, who plays Shauna in Yellowjackets, Beatrice in Over the Garden Wall, and Rose in Two and a Half Men.
I mean Freddy was always dead. He said everyone forgot. He needs people to know him and fear him to get into their dreams. It’s why he doesn’t always kill right away. He needs to instill the fear to give him power to take life in a dream.
Jason X takes place AFTER Freddy vs Jason! The beginning is in 2010 and the rest of the movie hundreds of years in the future! FvJ takes place in 03’ or 04’. Jason X is actually the last story in the OG Jason’s timeline even though it came out before FvJ.
Jason is not afraid of water normally. However, this is in a nightmare. By the way, Jason in this movie is played by Ken Kirzinger who played waiter at resturant in Jason takes Manhattan.
this is real cinema alot of people wouldn’t understand
"How sweet, Dark Meat" makes Freddy sound racist lol but it's a play on a line from A Nightmare on Elm street Part 4 where Freddy says "How sweet, fresh meat". Also...Freddy is probably a racist lmaoooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Actually it's a carving joke. Ever carved a turkey? You have to remember Freddy uses knives.
@@jim1771it has multiple meanings but its mainly a callback
Callback, absolutely. Still an allusion to her skin color. I thnk it's pretty funny, but it's true xD
Lolll, a racist killing mostly whites and barely any blacks. Yall really be reaching at any point possible🤣🤣🤣🤣. Fyi Kelly is dark and that made her stand out. If she were in a wheel chair, he would've mentioned the wheel chair instead, if she were fat, he would've mentioned her weight. That's how Freddy Krueger is.
I always think of kumail nanjianis joke about the line, “we’re fine with you killing children with your finger knives but racism!”
18:33 The one time someone remembers a name and they are literally just an extra with one second of screen time 😂 love y'all and the reactions. I've been waiting for this since the first Freddy 😊
Evangeline Lilly was in one of the biggest TV shows of all time. And is in the MCU. Very recognizable.
The “Jason being afraid of water” thing doesn’t bother me as much as it does some people. Yeah, the waking life Jason would never be afraid of water, but in his dreams, in his subconscious, it would make sense that the memories of his drowning as a child would stick in the back of his mind.
Exactly, that’s how I always understood it
It's really the only way it makes sense. Besides, it isn't really water itself that he's afraid of, it's being trapped in it and drowning. As a big scary gigantic murder zombie he can stroll out of the water any time he wants, but he was trapped in that dream world... trapped... plus water.... equals... childhood trauma. Notice he didn't care about it at all when he was awake and came out of it to give Freddy the ol' reach around Sunday surprise.
Fun Fact 3: Another concept was having a backstory set where Freddy was one of the counselors at Crystal Lake Camp that set up Jason's drowning because he wanted to cover up "Assaulting" Jason. The writers felt that was too far even for this version of Freddy.
Can confirm. He wasn't a counselor however, Freddy was born in 1942 making him 15 when jason died. The idea was that he was a fellow camper who drowned jason, jason was his first kill.
It could've worked if they pitched it as freddys early work. Like how criminals build their confidence and style.
Been loving these reactions from the SheJects! I love this movie. Glad you reacted to this one, and glad you liked it! Thanks for posting.
I think it's the back stories of both of them. They make Jason seem a little more sympathetic. Jason was a victim of bullying, while Freddy was a murderer and child molester.
He is a child murderer the remake doesn't count
@@WickedXombieDigiKingWRONG! He was always implied to be a child molester. That was the original idea for the OG film, and we see him licking photos of children and it’s explicitly stated he likes children, especially little girls. Not to mention he’s always perving.
@@WickedXombieDigiKingThe original still implied he was a child molester
@@niyanna nah they literally say child murderer
@@niyanna also it ls in the documentary that movie people say chose to diverge from the original character description
I grew up with this movie and am a massive fan of Lost and I’ve never noticed Evangeline Lily in this until Roxy pointed it out lol. Great reaction Shejects!
Jason X takes place after Freddy vs Jason. Yes the start was in hell, Freddy resurrected Jason.
@@Robert-up1yi not a arm but fingers my friend 😂🤣😅
Fun Fact: The guy who played Mark's brother in the bathroom scene also played Scutt Farkiss in A Christmas Story.
@@chuckmckendry194 he was also in a sitcom called "Titus"
Freddy vs Jason was THE crossover before multiverses and other versus movies were popular and in my opinion it still kicks ass
Jason wasn't initially aware that he was being used by Freddy. The moment that was revealed, it pissed Jason off. And the reason he let Lori kill Freddy, is because he's more cleaver than a lot of people give him credit for. The 2 kids won't be as afraid of Freddy if they're allowed to be the ones to strike the final blow. This is his middle finger to Freddy.
Jason X is technically after Freddy vs Jason but it was made before FvJ. Since its farther in the future 2010 to 400 years later. This one is in 2003 making this before Jason X.
Yeah that makes sense and is how I view them.
Thank you I was literally about to comment this
Hey, maybe the events of this movie are how they caught him. Jason did get wrecked pretty hard fighting Freddy, so he'd be weakened.
The "Jason goes to heaven?" Line at the end was funnier than expected 😂😂😂 because Jason does not infact have tickets to heaven
This movie was a monument in the entertainment industry. Still not happy they replaced Kane Hodder as Jason but Ken Kirzinger was still a pretty decent addition
Yeah Ken was great it just sucks that Kane didn't get to do it.
41:56 Did y'all NOT pay attention to the first 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' movie when Nancy's mother says Freddy was "a filthy child murderer who killed dozens of kids in the neighborhood."?! They just turned the valve up on his character, he was ALWAYS meant to be creepy and disgusting. 😂
Literally picked Evangeline Lilly out of a crowd. Impressive.
Nice catch Roxy, that was indeed Evangeline! Freddy Vs. Jason came out in 2003 right before 'Lost' the next year. I remember when she was on Electric Playground back in the day showing off gaming tech stuff.
i was 18 fresh out of high school when me and friends went to see this...the theatre was so loud and absolutely loved it....such a fun time
I was 10 years old lmao I remember my friends parents took us we snuck in some much chips and junk food it was awesome except when I got home and was in my room alone i was scared af 😂😂😂😂
Movie came out when I was seven years old. I watched this at the in-theater. Young children shouldn't watch this. But I loved this movie 😂
Watching this in theaters in 2003 was a trip. One of the best theater experiences I’ve ever had
Robert Englund said he couldn’t play the roll anymore due to his age and his torso shifted (doesn’t have his hourglass figure anymore) and he lost Freddy’s silhouette. He liked Jackie Earle Haley’s version but not the backstory they went with. He’s also said that Kevin Bacon would be a good person to take on the roll cause he respects the genre.
Thanks for going through the series with us. Everybody of the RR crew rocks, but you two have been my favorite pair. Keep up the awesome work, everyone!
Arrite, gang.. we did the dang Freddy vs. Jason. PITCH US YOUR HORROR MOVIE CROSSOVERS!!!
Alien vs Predator is right there...
Jason VS Michael Myers!!!
There’s a fan film, but we need an official one!
Team Jason
Alien vs predator is great also would love to see the Friday 13th reboot maybe down the line
The Ring vs. The Grudge. Yes, it's a real thing 🤣
Alien vs Predator. I recommend Ginger Snaps too. Gibb (the menthol smoker gf) is in them, Katherine Isabelle. She's a scream queen. You guys could also watch the Scary Movie franchise. After watching the Scream movies of course ✌🏻🤘🏻Will was played by Jason Ritter, son of the late John Ritter
This movie is stricly for the fans that is why it works so well. The fans have been begging to have this happen and so they finally did it with this movie. Jason Ritter is John Ritter's son and a very talented actor in my opinion. Oh girls you must watch at least the first movie of Ginger Snaps even if it's only on your own time it is a must see in my book. I love this movie so much and am glad they did the fans justice in that regard. Any way grate reaction as always girls and keep it up.
The first R-rated movie I ever wanted to see… And it did not disappoint
You guys are getting GREAT at guessing the plot lines ahead of time!
Roxy is so 🔥
This journey has been so fun with Tara and Roxi! Glad you guys enjoyed it!
i saw this in theatre it was an epic battle we waited a long time for
ur so lucky man I was 3 in 2003 lmao
The guy who took on the Jason role did a fine job, but it still really disappoints me that they didn't have Kane Hooder reprise the role after being the longest running person to portray the character. He was responsible for giving Jason all of his little mannerisms and his hulking presence. They went with the guy in this just because he was a few inches taller and they wanted him to be much taller than Freddy, but the could have done that with Kane Hooder with lifts in his shoes and camera angles.
One of the best of both franchises that blends both franchises well and delivers what the audience wants.
Freddy vs Jason was in 2003...until now I'm still waiting for that rematch....
Wasnt that what the comic book with Ash from Evil Dead was?
"It's not my fault this b*tch is dead on her feet!" That line kills me everytime, it's such a hilarious one-liner! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I absolutely ADORE this movie 😂😂😍😍 It's just a blast, no need for deep thinking, just goofy, gory fun
Fun fact: the older brother in the bathroom played the bully in "A Christmas Story"
Next week, Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes does something awesome.
Have a remake almost surpasses the original.
Jason X takes place AFTER Freddy vs Jason
Lori "wake me up". Me "wake me up inside"
I'm confused how She didn't get the wink. It was showing that Jason won by walking out with his head, but then Freddy winks showing he's not Dead because they wanted to pursue a sequel.. Pretty much a post credit scene
I doubt Jason won. Freddy winking showed that Jason failed and lost, because Freddy wasn’t dead.
@BrandonR592 He came out on top at end of movie unless it was the dream world at the end and I misunderstood it
@@marcosavalos2502na it’s just a set up that he didn’t in fact die he was in the real world when Lori took his head I checked a long time ago because I was a little confused.
@@TheActorBrandonRodriguezI mean doesn’t really matter but when looked up it does say Jason won even tho Lori did the final blow Freddy lost, the ending was more for a possible set up for another movie that obviously didn’t happen.
I think I remember someone interpreting the ending and the wink as Freddy still sort of controlling Jason. Why would Jason take Freddy's head could have just left it in the lake to rot, Freddy got him to take it and is going to continue to use Jason to do his dirty work for him.
23:49 How ironic Tara says " How Snap !" at the Ginger Snap girl
Katherine Isabelle was a boss babe in Ginger snaps 1 and 3, nice call back to Bridgette and Ginger 👍
teh novelization of the movie explains that jason is only afraid of water deep in his subconscious, you can see freddy smiling as he lures jason out onto the pier during their final battle because he thinks jason will be handicapped but it doesnt work when jason is awake
Monica Keena, who plays Lori is so BEAUTIFUL ❤️
@@knockoutking3764 she was so hot in this lol
Yup. Evangeline Lilly as "School Student - Girl Next to Locker"
Great eye. Quite literally blink-and-you-miss-it.
Sadly Kane Hodder isn't portraying Jason in this movie ( even thought most Fans wanted it) , Kane himself was disappointed especially after all the hard work he put in playing the character
I absolutely love whenever Tara doesn’t like something she exclaims “I don’t want it!”
Good call on Evangeline Lilly, I have seen this so many times, never saw her. She was uncredited though but it was her. Jason Ritter, the son of the late great John Ritter is in this one.
45:27 Probably one of if not my favorite Jason moment of all time, so fucking badass with the metal music and Freddy showing genuine fear
Freddy is so epic in this movie he redeemed himself from those last few nightmare sequels
She was in Man of the House! Love that movie. You guys should react to it. I just realized, no one has reacted to it
The lake and camp where they filmed many scenes is where I went to summer camp.
Another trivia is that Jason's actor Ken Kirtzinger is the same guy who played the tall chef in Jason Takes Manhattan that got thrown into the mirror in the cafe.
Monica Keena was also in a really funny show on Fox called "Undeclared" a while back, with Seth Rogan, Jay Beruchel, and Charlie Hunnam. Man I remember the Freddy VS Jason idea was being passed around to a lot of studios and was ironically in development hell for a while after Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday. The marketing for this movie was crazy once the film was finally shot, with there being an actual Boxing style Weigh-in and stats being called out by legendary Boxing announcer Michael Buffer. After every kill people were high-fiving each other in the theater I went to on opening night...damn those were some awesome times.
When she said “queue the metal” or whatever she said… the song that played during the fight is Chimaira. My cousin Mark is the frontman/vocalist. They’re from Strongsville Ohio.
@RoxyStriar If you guys are going to watch the 2009 remake, make sure it's the Killer Cut rather than the Theatrical Cut.
There was originally going to be a movie sequel to this crossover, but it got canceled. Instead, it continues in the comics with Ash Williams (Evil Dead) in "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash" (2007-2008) and then in "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash: The Nightmare Warriors" (2009).
"I love him"
-What's his name?
"I don't know. I just know I love him" 😁
Glad you loved it awesome movie super fun the hype was unreal for this in theaters great experience
Team Jason FTW
Team Jason all day
Team Freddy forevaaaa
I really love this video. Great job guys ❤ Freddy VS Jason is also my favorite movie
