Billy bob Thornton to play Freddy Krueger???
 

NO FUCKING WAY!!!

Probably on of the worst decisions in the history of film making

Full story

I'm gonna have to kill with these claws now...mmmm hmmmm (slingblade accent)

did the original Freddy Die? WTF?....... ohh well .. I don't think that changing the actor will have a notorious impact in the Nightmare on Elm st movies.........they need to come up with a better plot.....otherwise it'll be the same shit...

He didnt die, he was in the zombie strippers movie now too long ago.

I have no idea why they would not use him again, unless he's not into it. But judging by how his "career" has gone downhill ever since the last Nightmare movie I can't see why he wouldn't be

Dreading it

FUCK HOLLYWOOD..... I cant say it clearer than that.

Oh no, please! Say it's not true!! Worst decision ever!

I think I will stop going to movies altogether until they stop with these cheap fucking remakes.

I'm not seeing that ... :Oh crap.

I'm so happy to have a movie theater that plays "Non Hollywood" movies every Mondays. I've seen so many good movies there, some with subtitles... All movies had a real meaning to them.

I stopped going to Elm Street a couple sequels ago...with the exception of Freddy Vs. Jason
I still have my talking Freddy Krueger doll and even the Nightmare On Elm Street board game, but Freddy started sucking when he went from badass boogeyman to Game Show Host Of Death...

So, this remake isn't the worst of ideas...
although, my choice for the new Freddy would be Ben Foster
If Robert Englund has to pass the glove onto someone, he'd be the one...

Fuck that, i want old Fredy :)

Thats kinda stupid

they'll ruin it by making a pg-13 family friendly freddy movie..


they've also already remade Friday the 13th (in post).... which theyy probably ruined as well.

yup and same with Evil Dead...

nooooooo

Raimi is writing it at least..

its a remake of the first one and billy bob must be hurting for work.

They should have hired Johnny Depp. He was in the first movie and he also has experience playing a guy with claws for hands.

I think I like-a-me some of them kid-pertaters, mmm-hmm!

Edit:

Dammit.
