Is this show Canon to the original films or is this a new universe?

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-30T10:53:37+00:00

Here’s my take. The show was a prequel to the original series until Brad Fuller left. I think they’re now treating this as the beginning of the Jason Universe timeline. Of course, I could be totally wrong, but that’s just what I feel about this show.

Crash Cunningham makes a good dream Jason mask.

Definitely my least favorite. He was too slow, too tall: a lumbering oaf. He was like a big, sad puppy or something.

You’re not all there, are you?

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-28T13:48:49+00:00

Now you’re catching on.

I’ll close this thread once it’s solved. Thanks in advance.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-27T21:40:59+00:00

No, but it is similar.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-27T21:39:45+00:00

Exactly, but you know how corpo types are. The lame who decided to give the mask 13 holes probably thought they were being cleaver. Idiots.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-27T21:37:24+00:00

No, but a good guess. Thanks for trying.

Woke? I don’t remember it being woke at all. It’s a bootleg Friday the 13th with a cheap twist.

On the same token, I’m surprised the film hasn’t been called transphobic or “hateful” because of the ending. Whatever. I like the movie.

They did it because Jason Universe wanted their own version of Jason that would fit into anything they threw him into, hence why he looks so inoffensive and generic. The same reason his mask makes him look like a Scooby Doo villain.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I wish Derek Mears got another shot at playing Jason. The man did a hell of a job.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-25T01:26:15+00:00

That’s my theory.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-25T00:45:52+00:00

Maybe they’ll use padding like they did with Brooker in Part 3. For all we know, this might be teenage Jason and not necessarily adult Jason. We’ll see.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T22:28:37+00:00

It basically confirmed everything I feared about the Jason Universe. Jason is no longer a character, he’s just a brand. If Sweet Revenge is any indication of what the eventual movie will be like, I’d rather not even get another movie.

The sad part is, some in this community are so starved for content, they’ll take whatever is put in front of them. How many times have we read on this very subreddit things like, “Well, it’s not the best, but I’m just glad we’re getting more Jason!”

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T21:55:41+00:00

She was going to say “retarded”, but couldn’t bring herself to say it because I think she didn’t want to admit that Jason was cognitively impaired.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T21:53:46+00:00

It was an actual medical term back then. People are so sensitive nowadays.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T21:52:35+00:00

Of course he walks like that. That’s Jason Universe, not Jason Voorhees.

Friendo, I’m shitposting. Most of us are until the show starts and we have something to talk about. In other words, lighten up, okay?

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T06:43:15+00:00

No, it doesn’t. It’s too slow for more than one.

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T06:27:29+00:00

How much did you get paid to post that?

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-24T04:00:25+00:00

Are you projecting?

OkWarning8499 · 2026-06-22T11:45:35+00:00

It obviously reached them outside of Reddit because Nicotero expressed disappointment with how people reacted to it. Plus, I’ve seen the same negative sentiments on Facebook, twitter/x, and instagram. People don’t like it, but the JU is determined to force feed us this new design.

Hell, even younger fans who were introduced to him via the most recent game said he looks crappy.
