Is Jason X canon?
 

If so, then does that mean that the Friday series is over for good?

You know, I still think that somewhere down the road they will make a straight up plotless Camp Crystal Lake Jason flick just for nostalgic purposes. I'd watch it. That'd be great!

You know at the end of Jason X there he lands in that lake on "Earth 2" and there is a hint of a sequal, and if you listen to the directors commentary on the dvd he says they could possible bring him back there (like it or not??)

True, but that whole feature thing kinda turns me off.

This Movie Was So Dumb. They Killed It With The Robot Ninja Crap. Long Live Freddy!

Jason X was funny as hell. Great film.

i think it was ok but when they made the nija gurls that did kinda kill it

I liked Jason X simply because it was a Jason flick. But, where did it fall continuum wise? I mean, where did Freddy vs. Jason line up time wise with Jason X? Cause he didn't look all upgraded in the Freddy vs. Jason movie. Anyone got a clue as to when Jason X fits in? Just a thought that ran through my head. Like the one where I wonder where the hell Laurie Strode's son was in the last Halloween? I wonder tiny things like that once in a while!

I read that the Freddy/Jason series was gonna be its own lil' saga.

If you are going to put Jason X into any kind of continuity of all (though I feel it's not meant to be) it would have to go after Freddy vs. Jason. We don't know how those folks captured Jason in the begining of Jason X necessarily. So best way to think of it is that after Jason emerged from the lake in Freddy vs. Jason, the agents ventured to Crystal Lake and captured him leading into Jason X.

In an interview Kirzinger said that this film falls inbetween JGTH and Jason X. They asked him about a sequel but he made some kind of joke about money but that he was interested. I don't care if its Kirzinger or Hodder, I want some more Jason :D

I agree. I want more Jason. I think ken did a fine job anyway.

I would love to see more seperate Jason films, to complete the original 13 they planned all those years ago.


I wasn't, and I'm still not, a big fan of the whole "versus" idea. But I understand it had to be done due to fan demand. But they did that, and we don't need another one.



Personally, I loved Jason X, but I'm a sucker for cheesy sci-fi, and add to that a bad ass Jason and some cool kills, and there's one great movie for me. I love it.

so whats the general opinion (not that i care) about jason x, i havent seen it yet for some bizzare reason.

I loved it, but it seems like it's the end of the Jason chapter. Unless they continue it in the future like someone mentioned in this thread. If you're a fan of Friday flicks then you need to check this out for sure.

I agree! If you are a Jason fan, definately see it! Jason with a sci-fi twist.

oh i will definatley check it out, and if you ask me they dont realy need a good reason or story to resurect him, just stick him in a cabin full of teens and let him do his thing, am i right?

i think jason x should be a whole other series in it's own
then they could put freddy in the future
and have the terminator find neo and destroy the matrix
then jesus comes back
now that would kick a lot of the asshole
take it easy

im going to assume unbroken was being sarcastic

Do you even have to assume?

not realy, but its fun, you try it

Well, you know what they say about assuming...

i was serious
it would be awesome
take it easy
charlie

Well, in that case it sounds like an awesome movie. I'd watch that.

Okay? I guess it that's how they wanna make it! Sure I'd see it also! Could be a very interesting flik!

Now could someone tell me who charlie is? And why the hell he/she has to take it easy? Or should I save that question for my horror unknowns thread? HAHA :D

i'm telling you guys to take it easy
and my name is charlie
here we go
take it easy
charlie

i also think that they should let me direct the movie
it would be a milestone in the evolution of movie making
or something i'm just trying to sound smart
take it easy
charlie

Hey, if you can make me and my daughter "Samara" really scared by directing a movie, I say go to it! We are just dying to be scared!

When it comes to making a movie scary I'm the one to talk to:) . Once I showed one of my movies to my family (Corn Stalker) that I directed and it scared the shit out of them:D .

actually we keep talking about the directors making a movie scary, when actually it starts with the writers!

But the directors are the ones that make it look scary.

i would if i had the money
i really think the horror genre would be saved and ressurrected in full if i had the chance to make it
but it will never happen
take it easy
charlie

This movie rocks!
 

This movie kicked ass! Jason X is the best of the series. It's both funny and scary. If you haven't seen Jason X then you're missing out on a hell of a good movie. I give it five out of five stars. Excellent!

Charlie, settle down. Better yet, take it easy.

To answer this 15 year old question, yes, it belongs in the canon.
