freddy wont be strong anymore so as jason comes in the game that would be awosme to see for the first time freddy vs jason in mortal kombat i would kill for jason to be in the game
Apparently, in this iteration, though mortal outside of the dream world he still retains his dreamlike abilities to warp reality. This is different from the movies in which he's pretty much nothing outside the dream and easily beaten (though killing him sends him right on back to the dream world, so who cares).
It would have been so much cooler if they had used the original Freddy, and then gave him a move where he turns invisible, claws you in the gut, and drags you all over the walls.
@boogysplit Design-wise, I guess they could't use Robert Englund or Jackie Earle Haley for legal reasons or something. :( Ed Boon, the creator of MK9, said "When I look at him, I think of the original Freddy: he’s got the striped sweater and is instantly recognizable. He’s Freddy in general, we don’t really identify him as one version or another". Or are you referring to the fact he has two gloves?
@boogysplit He doesn't have enough burns to be either Freddy, in my opinion. I would've been more interested if he cracked jokes a la the original Freddy.
@yonatan2703 He woke up and dragged Freddy into the world of the living. It's been done before by weaker beings. And as long as you can do lucid dreaming you can fight him in the dream world.
@Jackthetattedone yeah the people who did the original movie wanted to make him a pedophile but there was a major case so they just took that out but they tried to hint it
they shoulda made his skin look likethe classic kreuger, not the remake... the remake version was a disgrace, i mean in the remake version he was a PEDOPHILE. WHATS UP WITH THAT
@jtdrummerboy OG Freddy's face may have been frightening to little children in the 80's, but nowadays he just looks goofy. New Freddy looks more realistic and, in my humble opinion, more evil, which makes this particular appearance more suited to the game and his role in it.
Also, why are you so hung up on looks anyway? Judging from his abilities, everything else about him seems to be based on the original Freddy.
@WelcomeToCarnate to me personally, it isnt about how goofy he looks, its that the original freddy's face is what made him so unique at the time, one of the things that seperated him from other villians.
@jtdrummerboy Freddy was also a pedophile in the original...they didnt just straight up tell you that. It was wes cravens original idea as well...I like the remake more dont ask me why i just do.
@CMassProductions...I could tell that he was a pedo when, in that particular film, he licks the back of that childs photo, all the while he has that disturbing look of 'love' in his eyes.....Eugh! Freddy is creepy!
@jtdrummerboy in the original he was also a pedophile 9 more of a killer though ) if you watched the series including freddy vs jason you would know and even wes craven said he was one in the dvd commentary of the original
@jtdrummerboy Freddy was always hinted at as being a pedo, in fact Wes Craven wanted that but there were too many crimes of pedophilia in America so he just had him as a child murderer.
He was strongly hinted a being a pedophile in the original movies anyway. And I'm kind of disturbed at you being less bothered by him being a serial killer than a molester.
@cocopuf97 Except for Rain. So not really i suppose...There's strong hints pointing to futures for Jason eventually. And I follow Ed Boon's twitter...He said in one that Leatherface DLC is in the works from Texas Chainsaw Massacre! Reiko has been requested often enough too...
@CliftonF3x Spawn rocks...Been a fan since the mid-late 90s. However, Not one of his games have made a lasting impression. And his cameo in Soul Calibur 2 was lackluster @ best...I owned the Gamecube version and Link wasn't even all that really...Probably a bit better though. Spawn has many reasons he could fly for this game, but i dunno about him in mk9, man...
@Xinsden Not really. Freddy is powered by the souls of people he kills so he's going after Khan for stealing them. It's just another case of evil vs evil just like in Freddy vs Jason.
Anyone notice he looks somewhat like Robert Englund in this screen shot? Robert was probably their first choice but decided to take Jackie's version to kind of promote the new movie.
@n93Barker That just made no god damn sense because Superman and Batman didn't become a part of the universe, that was temporal. Freddy will probably be on Mortal Kombat forever. That's what I was trying to say ¬¬ Lrn2Read
@RaidenRedux in freddy vs jason (yes i know it was horrible) he was equal to jason once they pulled him out of the dream world. and he only had the one glove
@RaidenRedux Cause half the people in this game arent just normal people at all, he already has special powers so he's just as good as anyone else in this game.
@RaidenRedux its actually pretty simple, first, he wouldnt be the only mortal/plain human. and second, he's not your average person, obviously as he can still use his powers.
@RaidenRedux He can be killed like a normal person, but he is evil and fear itself. He has demonic powers that allow limited reality bending but not at the near infinite extent in the Dream Realm.
@RaidenRedux Think of him like Scorpion. He's flesh and blood outside of his Realm but he's still demonically powered, thus he cannot be killed easily.
Or do it the simple way and just watch Freddy VS Jason. Not that hard to figure out dude.
@RaidenRedux (Horror nerd time) This can be answered. In Freddy vs Jason he's brought into the real world without his dream powers and puts up a helluva fight against Jason and almost won.
@FreeArtFreestheWorld mhm, he may have won too, if Lori didn't distract him at the last minute with the torches. Once he was distracted, Jason had an advantage.
@RaidenRedux the Mortal Kobat Tourament makes all fighters able to stand a certian amount, even if they are human, or immortal, they cannot go passed or less than that, maybe by Via magic that Freddie is able to survive
@xPSRiSe nnew freddy is a pedo. old one is just a child killer. this one isn't entirely based on either one (altough appearence wise he resembles new one more)
@Bamskrull the new movie was terrible but im pretty sure he was always a pedo thats why he got burned and such, he was also a gerdener thats why he has the claws. He Only killed the children that were in the scholl he worked.
@xPSRiSe he wasn't a pedo in the old movies. in the old movies he was just a child killer. he kidnapped children and killed them but eventually the parents of the kids found out about his whereabouts and burnt him alive. i havent seen the remake so i dont quiet know how the story goes in dat, but i yeh heard it sucked.
