I'm going to present a very unpopular opinion, seeing as I loved Freddy vs. Jason. I thought it was an intricate, visually striking and clever film with a LOT going for it. I like Ronnie Yu. I liked Bride of Chucky and I happen to have purchased Freddy vs. Jason. So, if Ronnie Yu directs this film and it is written by somebody with a brain in their head, like Freddy vs. Jason was, it might turn out cool. Freddy vs. Jason was not all about Freddy and Jason beating the crap out of each other for ninety minutes. But, if you bring in another mute bruiser like Michael Myers, the risk of that happening is quite present. The problem would be making Jason and Michael watchable on screen together. There would need to be a damn good reason for Michael to enter the mix and damn good mortal characters. Freddy vs. Jason was not a Godzilla movie, it dealt mostly with the people in the periphery dealing with the two monsters and not much of a slugfest. If the director and writers approach it is an Inoshiro Hondo style monster melee, they will greatly shortchange the audience. That being said, Kaiju fans don't take offense at what might be interpreted as my disparaging remarks. I grew up on Godzilla myself.
