Taboos

[tsumik]

We were discussing during lunch about Toshirô Mifune's "Seven Samurai" and how for a 1950's movie the japanese really had a totally different view on sexuality. How it wasn't nearly as taboo to discuss various things and how it's was more accepeted. Seeing as you wouldn't see hardly anything sexual in an American 1950's movie. My thought was about how the country was started by alot of religions individuals. That maybe the waythis country views alot of things such as sexuality and nudity stem from original societial beliefs.
... Then I wondered ... I wonder what Australia is like as alot of the first people there were British felons.

So if monster killers — not just monsters themselves — are thrown into the mix, what is the most likely scenario, Angelina Jolie fantasies aside?

"The brilliant Sam Raimi, creator of 'Evil Dead,' created a character played by my buddy Bruce Campbell, Ash," Krueger said, addressing a more widespread rumor. "Perhaps Ash will rid the world of monsters and preserve democracy by doing away with Jason and Freddy."

While amenable to some possibilities, Krueger was much more defensive and dismissive of others, like, say, someone he might have met during his long time trapped in hell ... such as Pinhead?

"Pinhead? Get him out of here. Hellraiser? Raise this!" he snarled, flashing his glinty knives.

How much of the future of this franchise is in the claw-hand of Krueger versus the film studio's, however, remains to be seen. Englund had previously suggested alternate endings to "Freddy Vs. Jason" that have yet to materialize — perhaps they'll be on the DVD version — and much can change in the development process. After all, New Line first put "Freddy Vs. Jason" on its slate back in 1993. For its part, New Line isn't talking. When asked to verify Krueger's claims, a New Line spokesperson said he was too afraid to comment.So if monster killers — not just monsters themselves — are thrown into the mix, what is the most likely scenario, Angelina Jolie fantasies aside?
