This one snuck up on me, and I'm really trying to tamper my expectations because the first two sequels were so damn bad. But, I'm excited.

I hate to admit that I am also kind of excited to see this. Not a fan of the original sequels really, so I am hoping this is better.

I am a bit confused as to why they didn't bring back Fishburne, but have a young guy cosplaying as him. I am assuming there is some time shit at play here, or atleast I hope so.

Yeah, I felt exactly the same about Fishburn. I honestly can't see Fishburn not doing this. I wonder if he's in it but not in the trailer. That would be a great thing.

No, he has stated publicly that they never even asked him about being in it and he doesn't know why. So its a weird thing all around.

His character did die in one of the videogames (which I think may be considered canon), but there was some questions around that even then. I just find it annoying that they go out of there way to make the young actor look like him with the glasses and everything. I was telling a friend of mine that I get this is probably a reboot to some extent with some newer younger characters to hopefully move the franchise along, but I would rather have seen them go with a completely new take on that role. But, yeah no info out there really, so maybe I am looking at this completely wrong. :shrug:

Holy shit, I was not aware of that. This is on the level of South Park when Chef left. :lol:
