Details on the opening scene of the F13 remake: Source: C.H.U.D. Jason Voorhees Is Still A Mama's Boy - By Devin Faraci
"The new Friday the 13th is going to open with Jason as a legend in the Crystal Lake area. Five kids out in the woods looking for a bunch of weed they planted and stumble upon the deserted Camp Crystal Lake. Sitting around the fire that night, the dweeby one (there's always a dweeby one) tells the legend of Jason Voorhees. After that the Survivor Girl and her boyfriend wander off into the woods, where they find a shitty old cabin. Inside are some clues, like a bed with the name Jason carved in it. An old picture of a girl who looks just like Survivor Girl.
And Mama Voorhees' head.
Cue Jason. He murderizes the other four kids, and as he grabs Survivor Girl... slam into the opening credits.
This sounds like a terrific way to revive the series. We get right to the point, and it opens damn strong. From there the movie essentially becomes a rehash of the first four movies, but who is going to complain about that? One of the big changes is that the script attempts to explain some of Jason's supernatural aspects - the script goes out of its way to specify that he's a human being, not a zombie or a superman - including revealing that our favorite hockey masked killer has a series of hidden tunnels under the woods and the old camp, which is what allows him to pop up at the most inopportune moments."More at: www.fridaythe13thfilms.com/films/newfriday.html

the bigger jerks the teens are the better, in this instance, and they all are in movies today. I'll be rooting for Jason if I watch this

That's been a problem plaguing the past New line movies.
All of the characters that survive have been unlikable f***wits.

Not always Some are likable characters and i'm glad they survive, but none of the New line survivors are likable in any way and it annoys me when they survive

If New Line even thinks about remaking A nightmare on Elm st without Wes Craven or Robert Englund I riot.

Honestly, at this rate we'll see a Clerks remake.

a.) I would prefer if they made likeable characters out of everybody, rather than just the Final Girl. Y'know, not just fill the movie with disposable meat characters?
b.) I realize stoner characters have appeared in slasher movies pretty much since the beginning, but I've gotten really sick of them lately. They're rarely actually funny, which means their comic relief segments are groan-inducing and/or annoying. Sorry, I recently watched The Tripper, and the Sheriff was the ONLY likeable character in the whole thing.
EDIT: I want to add that I'm not outright denouncing this particular movie. I'm gonna wait and see.

I wanted to watch a movie called "Freddy vs Jason" while we got that it was somewhat lacking, having the teens at first was fine because they needed a way to connect the two. but when the fight was going on and it was focusing on the Teens i was yelling "I DON'T F***ING CARE ABOUT THEM TOSSERS, I WANT TO SEE THE FIGHT!!!!!!!!". And that line in the trailer "Freddy vs Jason, Place your bets" was just Ugh
