Do You Think The New Freddy Is Better Than Robert Englund?

I dont think that "Halloween" or "Friday The Thirtenth" remakes can be compared to the "NOES" remake for one Micheal Myers or Jason never talked (i dont think). Freddy Kruger is Robert England and Robert England is Freddy Kruger, in my opinion there is no substitution as someone else was saying on here though i am willing to give this new guy a chance out of love for horror and the Legacy of "NOES" but still going into the theater tonight i will be pessimistic.

Robert Englund made the monster what it is.  Those are huge shoes to fill.  I will be there with a black arm band on.

so...after watching the remake...

Robert Englund is THE only freddy. and I hope to god the series dies here.

Fans of horror need to realize *if they havn't already* that we don't need stupid re-hashed bullshit of our classics, we need NEW inventive ideas.

Personally I hate remakes, but this is my opinion.  Not saying new Freddy isn't a better actor than Englund because he is.  Robert Englund was a better Freddy.  To his ability he made that Franchise what it is.  Hell he made New Line Cinemas a powerhouse.  They still call that Studio "The House That Freddy Built".  There have been a few Jasons, and Michael Myers over the years, but only one Freddy.   Not too mention in 1984 this was groundbreaking to people that have watched alot of campy horror movies during that time.  Freddy is such a beloved character in horror that anyone that would play him has big shoes to fill. 

FUK no BUUT this CAN bring a whole new generation into this genre and isnt that their plan? BUUUT they can NEVER EVER make freddy flicks original/masterpiece if they dont have thee original ACTOR, unless they cast roberts SON to play freddy lol.. and HEY, my lil sister asked me PERSONALY to get her this new freddy flick on dvd for her even though its not in stores yet, so i told her yeah i'll see what i can do... sister is only 15 and shes starting to becom like her brother...
