I don’t know what so many of you are complaining about – each part reveals another piece of the complex, and complicated puzzle – parts 5 & 6 were good b/c they unpeeled another layer of the mystery – and I look forward to seeing each new sequel as they’re released, and then purchasing the DVD.

“Saw” is the only horror franchise I can think of that every sequel is good – each film the games change – each film we learn more about John Kramer. Actually, I think part 6 was my favorite in the series, thus far. “Saw” brings so many relative issues of today into the spotlight, and they went above-and-beyond in part 6.

You can’t compare “Saw” to “Friday the 13th” – Friday 13th had some really lame, and crappy films in the series; the writing was rushed; just not clever like the “Saw” films – are you telling me that the ending in “Saw 5″ wasn’t genius!? When Strahm locked Hoffman into that box and shouted, “I’ve got you now!” and then what went down after that was just jacked-up! lol.

The “Saw” series plays out like a TV series – like a really well written crime, mystery, horror series – each part reveals more, and more – I am utterly impressed with each part. If they can continue to deliver, I don’t care if they go to “Saw 100″.

Think about it – you’re all complaining about there being too many parts – but just what else is coming out that’s so much better?

Would you prefer to go see another lame haunted house movie – or maybe a typical, cliche “Quarantine” or “Sorority Row” horror film? Or how about a nice remake like “The Stepfather” that cannot measure up to the original.

Seriously, it’s not as if “Saw” is taking away from anyone’s chances of seeing other films – it’s just one more film added to our choices, and if you don’t want to watch then you don’t have to, but that doesn’t mean the films are “lame” just b/c they continue to add to the story.

I am just glad to see the series go on b/c the writing is such high quality – and that’s something that’s been lacking in most american horror the last couple of decades. John Kramer a.k.a. “Jigsaw” is probably the most fascinating, and intriguing horror villain ever – and the more films they make the more we learn about his character, and his philosophy – so even though he is dead, the series stays interesting b/c we learn how he became Jigsaw.

“Saw” is just a top notch series w/ genius writing – and I hope they keep’em coming as long as the writers still put such great time and effort into the story.

But Jigsaw has been dead since part 3, let it go now. Who is still enjoying these films, I remember when the gore was a shock, but even into part 3 it was starting to fade from being disgusting to just being the background.

I would take any two of these movies in the series than either of the Jeepers Creepers movies any day of the week.

And to Ross,I really don’t know why you say that Saw kicked off the “torture porn” genre.Saw was released in 04,but Cabin Fever came out in 02,and Eli Roth makes nothing but these types of films.And let’s not forget the slew of cheap 70′s and 80′s horror B-movies that were preceded before any of these movies,like the original The Hills Have Eyes,Texas Chainsaw Massacre,I Spit On Your Grave,Last House On The Left,etc.

Oh,and quite frankly,the first Saw really wasn’t that graphic or gruesome.They didn’t really start to pick up the gore until the 2nd movie.

As far as Saw VII,I’ll be right there on opening weekend like I have since Saw III.Of course the 3D is a gimmick,but what can you do? Quite frankly,by the time it comes out next year,3D won’t be all the rave anymore.

i liked 1 and 2 the most, but now like you said they’re just milking it for what its worth.

its kind of creepy that there are so many people into “gore porn” hehehehe

So the fact that there will be nine Saws doesn’t bother me, but what does is the fact that 3 of them will be 3D. Look, I’m all for 3D if it’s handled well (which, let’s face it, it’s not going to be with Saw VII) but I’m sick of all of these established franchises releasing new movies in 3D when all the old ones were shot in 2D. It just makes the new films stick out from the old ones.
