So that explains both the great parts of Saws 4 and 5... as well as all the really bad (and rather over-the-top) parts.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38875050.post-18579776458141122452009-04-01T22:53:00.000-04:002009-04-01T22:53:00.000-04:00Hey Nick, thanks for checking it out!I remember th...Hey Nick, thanks for checking it out!<BR/><BR/>I remember the daughter but everything else, I had no clue. I only watched each film once (besides the first, I saw that twice) and can barely remember what happened in each one. And I guess I don't watch enough TV to recognize any of the actors outside "24" people. Tobin Bell, dude that plays Jigsaw, was a villian on the second season of "24" and now they got Morris, a current character. I wonder if President Palmer is gonna make an apperance in Part VI.<BR/>-JasonJason Sotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03892643201429905459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38875050.post-70805089938415279302009-04-01T22:33:00.000-04:002009-04-01T22:33:00.000-04:00The little girl was Jeff's (the main dude in Saw 3...The little girl was Jeff's (the main dude in Saw 3) daughter. Remember at the end of the movie, when Jeff kills Jigsaw, Jigsaw pulls out another tape recorder and says that he's kidnapped his daughter, etc.? Yeah... there you go.<BR/><BR/>The glass box was also shown in Saw 4, I believe, in one of the flashbacks.<BR/><BR/>I recognized Peter because the actor played Luke on Gilmore Girls, of which I used to be quite the fan.<BR/><BR/>The actors aren't introduced randomly in each movie, either. Hoffman was introduced in Saw 3. Riggs, the main dude in Saw 4, has been around since Saw 2. And the one main detective chick whose name escapes me at the moment (she died in saw 3, but was briefly shown in saw 4) has been around since the original Saw.<BR/><BR/>But I do agree that this series wasn't planned out like this from the first Saw. I believe it was planned out from Saw 2 or 3, but not the first. Once Darren Lynn Bousman took over in Saw 2, he started working with Leigh Whannell (the first movie's writer, and the guy who played Adam) to weave everything together. But after Saw 3, Leigh just became a producer, I believe, and two new writers came in. But while they're writing the films, I'm pretty sure they're being directed by the producers who have known where the series is headed since Saws 2 and 3. I think that's also why they're keeping the directors 'in the family'. Saw 5 was directed by the 2nd unit director or exec producer or something like that... I can't remember. And Saw 6 is being directed by the series' editor.<BR/><BR/>Anywho, I won't lie, either... I enjoyed Saw V despite all the flack it gets. But I liked it for the continuity and the ties back to the first 3 movies. It still wasn't as strong as the first film, though. But it wasn't as much of a crazy mind-fuck as the fourth with its plays with time and whatever.<BR/><BR/>And I'm pretty sure the autopsy scene of saw 4 is the beginning of Saw 6 (or at least between 5 and 6).Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.com
