Robert England liked the actor but he hated the remake

I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked this remake. Of course i also loved thr f13 remake but eh...

I liked his portrayal cuz he was more serious and less comic don't get me wrong I will always think mr englund will always be Freddy

My biggest gripe with horror movie classics, is that you'll never get the same charm as the films from the 70's and 80's, new horror movies rely way too heavily on cinematic shots, cgi, WAY too overpumped and unoriginal soundtracks and the thing i hate the most, actors who overplay the villains by making them all look like evil spirits rather than psychopathic humans. And don't even get me started on jumpscares. There's just something about the original movies that makes them so charming. I think it's because they were unprofessional most of the time, and had a low budget.

The remake sucked, but not because of Haley, mostly because it rehashed way too much of the original and did it far worse, a perfect example of practical effects outclassing CGI. I think Freddy's design turned some off, being that it wasn't the iconic look that we're all used to, but that of a more realistic burn victim. I think the idea that Freddy was innocent was a great idea that they should've ran with. With all of the modern effects tools at their disposal, practical and CGI, they could've gotten way more creative with the dream sequences. The only thing I think outshined the original was that last shot of Freddy pulling the mother through the mirror. Nobody will ever take away the icon that Robert Englund made famous, but Haley didn't tarnish the legacy as some believe, lack of creativity did. Haley made Freddy truly intimidating again and did the best with what he was given, on top of stepping into shoes that he knew were impossible to fill, for that he deserves and earned my respect.

The remake was a cool movie ! I enjoyed watching it

I liked Jackie earl as freddy. He was a cool freddy. Not a good as Robert but a good freddy nonetheless

Friday the 13th remake was cool (At least the scenes with Jason are excellent). And I like a lot what Jason looks like in the remake ... just smart, bad ass.

I liked the fact that Jackie went back to the more menacing Freddy in the style of the original Elm Street and didn't go for funny one-liners as that is Robert Englund's thing. I have these figures and love 'em too. Great stuff from NECA.

I thought the nightmare on elm Street remake was ok and it wasn't boring, I hated the Halloween remake, and I actually really liked the f13 remake tbh

I thoroughly enjoyed the remake as well. My favorite part was when Nancy and Quentin were in the Pharmacy close to the end and "Dream" by the Everly Brothers starts playing

Honestly I enjoyed the remake of a nightmare on elm street because it gives you a good story and it gets really deep too especially around the end of the movie when the found the pictures

The remake was my favorite Freddy movie, makeup was better and his voice was really deep and nasty, loved it. Figures look good also!

I agree with you spot. I absolutely love the remake! (except for the main characters) I loved Jackie and the new Freddy design

I really loved Jackie's portrayal of Freddy Krueger and really loved the design of his Fred and Freddy.

I like that they made Freddy in the remake like he would be in real life

You're not the only one who truly liked the Elm Street remake :)

I loved the remake version of A Nightmare On Elm Street it was so good

Really should have gave Fred articulate knees for the option to be raking a garden. Maybe even a small garden plot he could be gardening with the rake

Dude I’m with you the remake was probably the best nightmare on elm street movie

I think if the Nightmare On Elm Street movie took pointers from Friday the 13th (2009) and took its best features and put them in one, it would do a lot better, for example it could had no jokes and more seriousness , like Jason they made him more vicious and faster and a better version of themselves, story wise it could have remained pretty much the same but not stealing the ideas that were used in the other movies like the face in the wall. what I did like is how they brought the Micro sleep instances and raised a new fear of not only falling asleep but not even knowing your asleep yet, I don’t think it was bad they just need a different story writer and not try and be like Robert England and have their own freddy

I think that everyone agrees that Jackie as freddy was a great bit of casting.

I thought i was the only one that enjoyed the remake... But the original are still good

Woulda made for a more interesting film had they tried a little harder to distinguish themselves as something separate from the original, instead of grabbing so much of the exact same dream imagery we've all seen portrayed countless times throughout the franchise. I do imagine a number of folks would have complained, but being it's own unique thing would have ultimately worked in its favor to stand out. The best scenes were quite often the ones where they did try to explore original concepts, for example fleshing out Freddy's backstory a bit more. Haley's a phenomenal actor, I only wish they'd given him better stuff to play with.

Considering how impossible it would be to remake these movies they did a pretty good job on both Friday the 13th remake and nightmare on elm Street . Even Halloween (rob-zombie) and the new child's play reboot wer pretty decent .

Dude I really like the remake of Freddy cougar I also like the really old ones but I like only one and two nightmare and I’m street the other ones just get kind of ridiculous and this Freddy cougar is freaking creepy they did an amazing job on him and I don’t know why everyone hates him so much I can’t see hell else they would’ve done it

The Remake was dope, freddy was more piss about what happen to him, i like the whole sleep deal about how you stay up then boom he got you, at first billy bob thorthan was heard to get the role, watch the delete scene where Nancy walking down Elm Street in here Dream that was sick

Rorschach Krueger.

Spot, after seen your review I took courage and seen the movie for the first time. I liked the movie, it's really OK But can't digest the Freddy himself. He is too different from Englund than kills the essence of the character. In my personal opinion, the Rob Zombie's Halloween is the best remake, Rob knew how to keep the essence of the main character. For other way, the Neca figures are great, great likenness with Jackie Earle Haley. Regards from Argentina!

dont worry about liking the remake cause i liked it to

Fred Krueger is My Favorite Horror Franchise

got theme too, mannn it was hell trying to get the both of them

I liked the remake of a Nightmare on Elm Street it’s VERY underrated

Nice, I remember when you first reviewed these figures. glad you are doing it again. Also I liked the movie to, I don't get why people don't like the movie. Keep up the god work on the videos

I loved both remakes,but Friday the 13th remake was my favorite

Finally someone else who likes this movie

I love that movie too since I wasn't born back then this was this movie when I saw it I just thought that his Freddy Krueger looks so much different I think it looks more creepier so I ended up liking the movie when I saw it

I loved the remake! I,m not saying this to make you feel better, because I loved it.

I too liked the remake, but I mainly enjoyed Jackie Earl Haley as Freddy, for a darker taste of the character. And also, I've yet to get the glove. It's more of a gauntlet than a glove, but OK.

HEEEEEEEEEERRES FREDDDDY

I really enjoyed the remake. I like the way this freddy looks more then the original. DONT HATE ME

I received the movie on Blu Ray as a B DAY gift ...Loved it ,great horror flick!

Yeah Jackie earl Haley played a good Freddy, Tyler mane played an awesome Michael Myers, Derek played a badass Jason and bill skarsgard player a fantastic penny wise the clown

Jackie looked scary as freddy and was brutal and terrifying

I dont get why somany people were mad thathe was portrayed as a child molester so openly. That has always been a part of freddy krueger. They werent allowed to put it it that openly in the original, but its always been part of him. And the fact the remake took a serious tone with him made sense and fit.

people hate change and it doesn't matter who they put they will always complain. Personally I always thought this Freddy was way creepier

I really liked this Freddy he looked real like the Jason remake its good and real

i also enjoyed the remake

I honestly loved the remake

I agree with you on remakes in general, and that Jackie Earle Haley actually made a good Freddy, but I really disliked the Elm Street remake because to me it just felt like a more jumpscare-filmed and way less subtle version of the original film. I did think the Friday the 13th remake was okay (just okay).

While I'm personally not a fan of the remake(I thought it was meh) I still think both these figures look really cool.

I think these figures would both be better if they had more articulation in the legs

I also liked the remake. It was the first Elm st movie I saw (and besides the original, the only one I've seen). Then again, I also liked the Friday the 13th remake too...

I agree.I have NO idea why the remake has so much hate,I thought it was AWESOME!!!!!!

It's a shame we will never get an Ultimate Remake Freddy from NECA.

I love the reboot nightmare on elm Street lol

Agreed! I loved the remake to Nightmare on Elm Street! Definitely a hell of alot better than Nightmare on Elm Streets 4, 5 & Freddy's Dead! K, I know alot of people like Dream Master but... God, I don't. It's so completely forgettable. I don't like the new Nancy though. But that's mainly due to the actress... not wanting to be there but she could've put some level of effort in. Not making that up, she hated that she was in this movie. I... personally liked Quentin more than Glenn. But I love Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy! I loved how evil, cold-blooded, non-joking but still had some good lines I think, awesome badass voice, the look! The glove, I didn't mind it. Thought he was cool! Especially the stupid shit that was in Freddy's Dead that did piss me off. Aside from Rooney Mara, the acting wasn't too bad, the dreams were neat & the story was nicely done. I... don't get the hate at all but haters gunna hate.

parka and clown mask? Spot what were you thinking? lol but yeah that's an extreme of the A New Nightmare trenchcoat

I loved the remake, I loved everything about it. The movie gets too much hate. Now, there was a line in there that I didn't care for. But, I loved it

Just watched watchmen for the first time the other night and I gotta say I have a lot more respect for Jackie Earl. I think he's a pretty good actor and did good-ish as Freddy but I do think his performance was a bit boring due to a bad script.

I do prefer the original but I didn't hate the remake, I liked that they tried exploring if Fred was innocent as could have gone somewhere with it but oh well, like the Friday The 13th remake aswell, not so much Zombieween.

I respect your opinion on the 2010 remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street, but I don't like it. I thought it was terrible in my opinion. I love the original movies better. My parents got me into those films. Robert Englund will always be the best Freddy Krueger to me. The reason why I love Robert Englund's portrayal of Freddy Krueger is because he makes me happy, laugh and smile. That's why I love him better and I happen to have a crush on him, too. He's the man of my dreams. You can't beat the classics. Like I said: I don't like the 2010 remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street, but I respect your opinion on it, as long as you respect mine.

I liked the original better but not by much I really loved the darker and more real feel to the remake. It made you feel like you were really there. The original is a 9 out of 10 the remakes an 81/2

I liked the remake!

I'd actually like to see Freddy as a giant penguin...

Can’t believe you like the remake

I liked his portrayal cuz he was more serious and less comic don't get me wrong I will always think mr englund will always be Freddy Krueger

Also, about the glove, think they were trying to combine the old traditional glove & New Nightmare's clawed hand together.

Kool figure thanks

hey spot I loved the remake I like the new Freddy he's more serious and scary

I liked the remake of a nightmare on elm street

like you said in the 1st 2 reviews they should've made a 2 pack

Nice figures

ha "butter knives" that's a FvJ quote XD

I also LOVED the remake and when people hate on it it sucks cause it was good, I do like the original 1984 version better but you should not dis on remakes especially when ITS not the same movie So in AGREE with you

Even if the remake sucks (i liked it) you have to admit they upgrade the looks

Holy shit this awesome

I actually like the remake

I have to say only 3 of the England Freddy films I loved. This was just a damn mess. I remember looking and reading about all the behind the scenes and what a disaster of a film it was becoming. And Freddy isn't the problem as much as the so called Nancy. The figures are exact from this remake at least. Can't knock the figures.

Yes review spot I do like Robert as freddy but I liked the remake too.the voice for freddy was so creppy and awesome but Robert is who I know for freddy and the best.

The 2010 remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street was a complete disaster in my opinion. A big reason for that was because Freddy Krueger wasn't played played by the legendary Robert Englund. The movie was faithful in terms of its visuals. However, it lacked the depth, twists and tension that the older Nightmare on Elm Street movies had. The movie just didn't resonate with me and it didn't evoke the feelings of horror and dread that were present in the prior releases. Jackie Earle Haley nor any other actor could ever replace Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger in my opinion. With that aside, the figures do look cool. Thanks Spot!

Idk why people didn’t like the remake i liked it

I love the nightmare on elm sreet

Booo hissss booooo hisssss JKJKJKJKJK 😂😂😂

Jackie was better because he was more serious but he still made jokes

I liked the remake as well.

I actually liked the remake...freddy looked cooler....hes glove was cool...hes voice was awsome...also he wasnt a comedy guy...he was a normal killer....i loved the remake

I enjoyed the remake

I enjoyed the nightmare on elm street remake movie it was a great remake

I love the RemakeSo good

It’s not the fact that it’s not robert englund, it’s the fact they took an iconic character, and a classic beloved by many and took everything and threw it out the window and spat on it, and ruined freddy and excepted people like it and that’s the reason and people hated it including myself. There are horror remakes that are amazing and actually pretty good, and there are bad ones, and this one is one of them. They could’ve done alot better, or just not bother to remake this one at all.

I don't like the movie but I would still buy this figure just for the collection. I don't like the look though I don't find normal-looking burn victims scary I think it would have been better had they stuck somewhat to Roberts look but at the same time altered it to fit with the times.

I agree spot even though I enjoyed the Friday the 13th remake as well they both have there problems

I like the darker Freddy I like that but the pervert is not the best but I would give it 4 star review

Great vid keep it up

9:28 hahaha!

I admit It out of all the Freddy films I prefer the remake.

I don't get how so many people hate the remake. I think the remake is one of the best! In my opinion only part I and II are good A.N.O.E.S. movies. All of the others are too comically. Freddy Krueger is a demon appearing in your dreams, scaring you and eventually killing you, i don't think anyone would be scared to see Freddy dressed up as a witch.

I enjoyed Rob zombie's Halloween.
