sounds like saw 2 - Shadow Puppets (2007) Discussion

[–] Wisla 18 years ago

If this movie will be similar to "SAW 2" then great, I love "SAW", "SAW 2" and "CUBE"!!!

reply

Haven't actually seen Saw,Saw 2, or Cube because I'm not usually a "horror" movie fan. But I know James is careful about what projects he takes...so if he saw something in this script, I'm certainly willing to find out what it was. :)

I'm not big on horror/gore either, but this one sounds like it's a psychological thriller take on horror, so I'll watch... plus James is in it. Still, I'm waiting for that Spike movie that may/may not be happening. C'mon Joss, get writing! I'm having Spike withdrawl symptoms!!

Cube is worth renting for sure, it's gory of course but it's also a great psychological thriller... although I'd recommend avoiding the sequel Cube2/Hypercube (and possibly also the "prequel", i.e. Cube3/CubeZero).

I think the movie sounds good

Only that the characters in Saw 2 did have memories.

It's also like that episode in the Buffy series where Willow casts a spell on Tara and Buffy and it goes wrong and they all wake up with no memory.

"Tabula Rasa" was the Buffy episode...one of my favorites.

Sounds good. I liked Saw 2 and this does sound a bit like it. I think it'll be great....Plus I like James Marsters he is a great actor.

if someone here that watched cube that could explain the end to that movie because i just could not understand the end!! like one of the reasons is who the hell built the cube and who put them there???? if you could email me at [email protected]

reply

[–] DarrenDirt 18 years ago

The "reason" isn't clear because the film makers want the viewers to *think* for themselves...

Unfortunately, the sequel "Hypercube", and especially the better-than-Hypercube "prequel" called "Cube Zero", give more information about the origins/purpose.

...Or do they? ;)

The Original Saw was cutting edge and amazing. Saw 2 was appalling and lost the original flavor that the director fused into its predecessor. I've seen the original CUBE and really liked it.

However, after seeing Saw 2 it was not worth watching the first time around.

But I WILL watch shadow puppets because I'm a huge fan of James Marsters. Who knows maybe Shadow Puppets will do what Saw 2 couldn't - excitement.

I've seen shadow puppets. i saw it at a friends place this summer because their dad was a producer on the movie. This movie is alot like Cube. If you liked the movie Cube, you should like shadow puppets.

when does this movie come out? Will it appear on Sci-Fi, or just on dvd?

[–] x_snow_wolf_x2 17 years ago

Yeah, it sounds like BtVS, Cube, House of 9 and all those other amnesia stories, too... No ideas are original so who gives a flying ----? Anywho, I just want to see James. I miss BtVS and Angel, so I'll just watch other movies that the actors/actresses play in, and settle for that.
