FvJ coincided with a defining moment in the trajectory of the American cultural and geopolitical lifecycle. The fact that it was made at all, and that we got the film we got is a reflection of, and testament to, a time when the Bretton Woods, post-WW2 order still engendered hope and America could still believe in itself. It's something that can never be recreated, and it marks the transition to a period in which the country stopped being able to claim progress in any meaningful, material sense and pivoted to coasting on what the nation use to be and slapping new coats of paint on a body that was rapidly being hollowed out.With regards to the American Empire, there was also a brief window of hope, or at the very least popular leeway, that the recently launched Middle Eastern wars were broadly justified and in line with the national interest as perceived by the body politique. It wasn't until the summer of 2003, and the release of Freddy vs. Jason, that the culture and country from which it had flowed reached their zenith and point of no return. There is a scene where Linderman feebly attacks Jason with a burning American flag attached to a pole within the fiery cabin at Crystal Lake. In that moment, there's an uncanniness commenting on itself, and retrospective audiences are invited to celebrate the ways in which FvJ simultaneously succeeds in prefiguring and enacting its own unique place in the American cultural lexicon.

We got a FvJ freak in the house… ohhh yeah

The people who made this movie had no idea about the characters at all. Why is Jason afraid of water when he swam all the way to manhattan and was shown to be underwater a lot of time.

What the fuck did I just read?

This is both legit and true. I cannot deny this.
I guess the real mystery now is which film started the sound is louder than the voices gimmick.

Watch the movie if you haven't. Then you'll be able to connect the dots

Jason is afraid because he is now aware that you are blinking and breathing manually.

yeah i remember watching it in theaters when i was a kid

You're technically correct, but you also just made me realize that one of Jason't low points as a character is no weakness.

Shut up kike

We all know that the 60s was the end

Same. Only reason this thread caught my eye.
That guy looks tired. Like he's out of breath.
Is he okay?

Did you need further proof that people just point AI bots at this imageboard to jumble and confuse people?

Jason easily
Freddy is gay

Mike could take both of them, at the same time.

Lol I remember I had a dvd quality bootleg of this movie and played it at a friends house when he was having a party, they had a big screen tv, plasma I think back when those things were rare, or might have been old school big screen. Well the thing that stood out the most, was the movie, although dvd quality, while the movie was still in theaters had a watermark on it, or label, J. Torres. On the side of the screen.we had to see the entire movie with that name on the screen. Lol good movie, it entertained the crowd at the house party, ppl thought it was lit I got a copy of the movie while it was still in theaters and not have it be a crappy cam version where it’s some Jack off in a theater recording with a camera lol. It was a legit inside studio copy. Anyway. Good movie.,

They should have paid for the original ending: studio cheaped out and didn't want to do the full FX for it.
