i liked Jackie Earl Haley but Robert Englund will always be the legend that made Freddy a classic
Freddy Krueger, Exactly! Robert Englund is simply the best for the Freddy Krueger role. Jackie doesn't come close in my opinion! Jackie was terrible
I didn't like Jackie Earl Haley as Freddy Krueger nothing personal I probably won't like Robert Englund if Jackie Earl Haley was Freddy and they did a remake and Robert took over and became Freddy
Agree
I honestly think Jackie was a pretty good choice to play a new Freddy (we all know Robert Englund will be the best) but the script that Jackie was given didn't really give him any direction to go, and they tried to make him sound too much like Christian bale's Batman
Liked the voice, actually. It sounds so Godly intimatin
Jackie Earle Haley and Robert Englund are both legends! :)
Robert Englund is a great guy and he's absolutely right about Jackie Earl Haley, they're both great actors.
Robert EngLund is my generations Vincent Price he so amazing
YES Robert will always be the original Freddy, but Jackie did an awesome, different creepy Freddy! By no means did his version suck. They are both great Freddy's.
His version didn't suck,the other actors were horrible and the storyline was hideous, they could have done better with the makeup effects on freddy
@@scottgettins4212 yup. exactly. he did his best with what he was given
Robert Englund is incredibly iconic. Jackie Earle Haley did a PHENOMENAL job though.
And that kids, is how I met Robert Englund 1:11
OH MY GOD, IS THAT YOU IN THE VID BACK THERE-
Robert Englund is just the coolest dude ever.
wait wait wait
Robert watched Watchmen?
This is true. It certainly keeps the franchises alive. You are right.
you people fighting over who is the better freddy need to STOP! and freddy being serious is NOT a bad thing. he wasn't always a joker in the nightmare films! wes craven hated "CLOWN" freddy which is why he made "new nightmare" get over yourselves, people! Jackie was FINE!
+wreathofpalmaria
I personally do not get all the hate Jackie got. Is he the original? No. But I thought he did just fine.
nebchic I personally liked his freedy because he didn't act like a joke character.
I just watched Jackie on Friday the 13th. I liked what he brought to the character.
nebchic i like his take too. most people just wanna whine about it because it's not robert englund playing him though robert has said he's too old to play him now. He basically said the stunts he did in FvJ nearly killed him!
*****
Agree. Robert is evena fan of him!!
Robert Englund = LEGEND = best damn freddy ever!!!!!
I used to collect movie posters at our local video vhs rent store, I managed to get A nightmare on elm street promotional movie poster which was hanging on my bedroom wall for a long time, even made my own DIY glove using a leather fingerless glove and using card board to cut the size of the kinves and silver spray painted the cardboard cut out knives, attaching them later on to my fingerless gloves, just like freddie, lol, I guess the power of Freddie (Robert Englund) breathing life into the character in way that commanded attention, playing such an engaging character with such assertiveness which stands out from a lot of actors proves that such an iconic character is timeless, within the delivery of such character, unfortunately, although Jackie Earle Haley is an amazing actor in such movies like watchmen, robocop and many more roles, he didn't quite do justice to freddie in my opinion, but it goes to show that Robert Englund is irreplaceable, I doubt the new Freddie would leave a lasting impression which inspired one to DIY mimick Freddie, or collect the movie poster like Robert Englund did.
Jackie Earle Haley was at his best as Kelly Leak in the Bad News Bears trilogy
Robert es el mejor♥️
Robert is the best. No one can replace his role as Freddy Krueger..it just isn't the same.
if jackie would have been the first, then ppl would like him, it is mostly nostalgia for y ppl like robert better bc they grew up knowing robert as freddy if it was reversed they would say jackie
What a dumb comment. Ppl liked Robert cuz the new one was too serious and meh
Robert was more charismatic end of story
Shinsuke Nakamura the reason the 2010 version sucked wasnt Jackies fault, it was the script makers
@@shinsukenakamura9322 Then you all would complain about Robert being too goofy. Just shut up and accept that it's nostalgia
@@shinsukenakamura9322 If you don't like Jackie's Freddy bc he's serious then you don't like the original movie bc in the very first movie Freddy was also serious
@NateXRau I am so sad he won't be in the next coming sequels. No one will ever replace him he is the one TRUE Freddy
No one can ever replace Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger. Absolutely no one
i love both versions though the new version scared me more in fact it was the only time Freddy actually scared me instead of make me laugh because the new Freddy still had some of that humor.. but he was much quieter about it and much more sadistic in how he spoke
i got to meet him in person so awesome
I agree with you completely, on all counts! I even try to make that very point to folks from time-to-time.
robert englund kick so ass at los angeles 2nd annual steady awards red carpet !!!!
Rob is the best and always will be!
Changing Freddy so someone other than Robert makes as much of sense as making me the new Freddy character, and I have never acted a day in my life--no commercials...no plays..no theaters..etc etc etc....
Robert please come back.
See people...Rob accepts Jackie as the new Freddy, so stop bashing Jackie for being so god damn AWESOME!
BREAKING AWAY! Hells yeah!
Jackie knows how to 'punch' a time clock.
I understand people not liking the remake but the one thing about that movie that a cannot fault is Jacky Earl Haley, the man is an extremely talented actor. also I liked the remake for what it was, it was a somewhat campy modernised version to introduce a classic to a new generation.
too impressed to say that robert's seen malaysian horror movies!
I think Jackie was reallly good, but Rob's a legend
was that Dave Days?
Robert England. Class act.
LEGEND !
@silverbeast75
Wes Craven's New Nightmare WAS the darker version.
They never should of made the new one.
Robert Englund: Freddy Krueger. Jackie Earl Haley: Freddy Krueger, jr.
LOL, I like how you all say that Jackie sucks, when he got Robert's approval in the first place.
come on guys stop hating on Jackie. He was AWSOME as Freddy Kruger. Robert was Awsome as Freddy, too. they both brought the character to justuice in their own ways so just deal with it.
you are right robert englund my sir
i like the old ones but the new ones! woot woot! DONT even get me started! the new movie IS LIKE the best scary movie ive seen so far! you just CANT belive a guy SO SWEET and loving like jackie can play such a horrific character! his voice is REALLY badass! it scared the crap out of me! and his face is actually more realistic.. like it actually looks burned then like... a pizza! and the characters in the movie... are cute. EXPECIALLY jesse! i love the originals but i loove the remakes!
@Dgamer21 i agre i think honestly a darker version was sorta needed becuase the original is always so known for being so funny its almost hard to see him as a threat until he gets mad with the new version hes 100 percent take no prisoners attitude
I have yet to see the remake, but from the clips I've seen of JEH as Freddy Krueger, he seems genuinely scary in the role, but it also seems like they were trying to make him too serious. I grew up on Robert Englund's Freddy and he terrorized me as a kid lol. It's just that with the remake, they were trying to have JEH's Freddy capture the Freddy Krueger from Wes Craven's original, but he just seemed to be a tad bit too serious. I have to see the full film, I guess, but I miss Englund's Freddy.
@smoothymcgyver Awesome comment and so true.
i like both the new and the old both vry good to watch but ya i have to give just a little bit more to the old :) roberts just a legend!
@silverbeast75 same here. I feel that Jackie is more scarier than Rob as Freddy. However, Rob is more entertaining as Freddy though. Both are equally good, just in different sense.
At least it open the doors to a newer audience to the movies. It entices them to look back at the original and give it a shot.
The interesting thing about this remake, is the fact that it didn`t try to copy the original. Actualy it was more a diferent way to tell a story. Jackie Earle Haley, will never be like Robert Englund, because he has played different roles in many more movies, and he`s a very versatile actor.
@TwiztidJuggla420 He plays a different Freddy. Robert was great as the original Freddy, Jackie did well for the rebooted Freddy too. There's no such thing as "he's not Freddy", they two versions are simply different. They both play their characters great. End of story.
Jackie is a Pretty Good actor and he make a Solid Role as Freddy, But Robert Englund Will Always be the One and Only Freddy Krueger
Just wondering but has Robert ever met Jackie?
@ninamermaid From what I've been seeing people only bash Jackie because there are Jackie fans coming onto the boards and saying see, he's the best Freddy and starting arguments about it. I think everyone should just like who they want to like and stop starting arguments about it(which I know you weren't doing here). I'm just explaining why some Robert fans were bashing Jackie and vice versa.
If we show this video to all Jackie Krueger haters, then (hopefully) their numbers will drop dramatically.
The reporter sounds like the lumpy space princess
MY GEMINI TWIN ROBERT ENGLUND
hey, that "ancient, shapeshifting, fairytale evil Freddy" it's actually sick, sadistic and violent, just watch the movie and look at his expresions, he even kind of remember me of jack torrance.
the Jackie's Freddy, can be a child molester, but he's not twisted or sick, he's revengeful, grumpy and auto-compassive, but he never looks like he's loosing his mind or enjoying to much at killing people like the demon freddy, even he tries to be funny at times.
it can be...only choice is roberto lombardy check his short movies he plays freedy when he was serial killer alive..very very good..mean
Yeah, that's the problem with remakes. I'm not totally against them, but they are almost pointless if you are remaking a legendary film that has an iconic figure played by an actor who literally made the character and is the face of the character. You can never do better than the original film and the original actor.
Actually he was saying nicely that Jackie sucked as Freddy. But he mostly said that the remake sucked look up his interviews with Heather for proof. He only said he liked Jackie in his other movies. And no Robert IS Freddy period.
Wouldn’t it be cool if the remake Freddy was exactly like what Robert englund wanted him to be?
Yeah, right now horror is one of three things.
1)copy and paste slasher with more or less the same general plot
2) paranormal hauntings
3)remakes
@SOHNancy no sweetheart, he's NOT just being nice...he's being honest. Jackie fuckin' rocked as Freddy and you're just too much of a Rob fan (NOT a Freddy fan) to see that! But its okay, you're not alone. There are a lot of other people out with the same misguided notions. Have a fantastic Halloween!
robert englund is in call of the dead
Really? then why did they use the same sweater, glove, hat, and similar burned look? Even Robert said he was disappointed that the bascially copied the original.
The remake had some very good moments, Jackie was great.. Robert was legendary, it just came at the wrong time I think, give it a few years and it’ll probably get a sort of cult status. I’ve met Robert and have been a fan since 1987 so I’m probably a little bias 😂
@brunobb1 yep rob was a true legend and in my eyes, he still is a legend
I think it is time for Freddy vs Freddy remake..
Robert is just the face of Krueger, when i see Jackie in the freddy form, it just doesn't look right. Don't get me wrong, i'm still going to watch the movie, and i'm not saying Jackie is bad at playing Freddy or anything, i just got Robert as Freddy in my mind.
@DanielleSantos711 Fanned and 1000% agreed! :D
No contest Robert englund is freddy 💯
@salenakronic77. No he didn't wanna talk "hella" anything... He's the reason y there's a new freddy. He turned it down.
All these comments about Robert not being scary? Watch the 1984 version again folks because it is scary...the sequels turned him into a cartoon but the first??! THIS....THIS IS GOD
Nightmare 1 and Freddy’s Revenge definatly made Englund’s Freddy quite scary. He remained to have a cartoonish feel but it wasn’t super silly
Ummm the pizza scene and chefs hat SUPER SILLY
The guy doing the interview is hot. I can't common on Freddy because I am deathly afraid of him and avoid those movies like the plague.
No new freddy doesnt look like an alien he looks like a real burn victim.
To me, Jackie Earle Haley will always be Kelly leak in the bad news Bears
exactly man, horror movies has to be classic and they has to be done old school F*** CGI
@smoothymcgyver So? Of course Robert isn't going to bash him. He is better than that. But either way, regardless of how Robert feels about Jackie. HE IS NOT FREDDY! End of story.
i think the remake was horrible, but even if you don't like it, you have to admit tha Jackie's interpretation was by far the best thing of the movie.
I thought Jackie Earle Haley was great as Freddy, But Robert Englund was legendary
I hope this silences the fanboys with their head stuck in the past.
roberts awesome. he always has an interesting response. Jackie is great as well and his spin on the character was refreshing
He sounds like spongebob... hahaha xD
@ninamermaid Yeah, it is an endless cycle. That's why I don't take part in it. I think they were both great. Rob is my Freddy Kreuger, but I don't have a bad word to say against Jackie. I thought he was great.
Robert embrasses Jackie Earle Haley and thats how classy he is ... if everyone would stop this "no one plays freddy but robert " bs and give the movie a chance you'll see that his ( Haley's ) interpritation of Freddy wasn't bad ... just too bad ppl can't get past it and actually go into the movie without a bias additude
I like how Jack did Freddie the problem I had is they didn't try to make Freddie be as funny as he tried to be originally, in the one movie he only had one wise crack really, and then also there was other things about the movie that upset me but whatever
well i think jackie di a good job but not better than the robert but jackie did get his version of freddy in a video game which robert cldnt
@tyakack Well im 14 years old...but i fucking choose Robert Englund man, Rob is the Freddy there is no person on this world that can do the freddy krueger paper better than Mr.Rob !!!!!
Robert Englund is king on Freddy franchise...many lime Jack who's another great actor but not for this...Jack is good in other things
@smoothymcgyver Did you think Robert was going to say "oh yeah, he sucked", he's not an as hole. Jackie did suck as Freddy, I tried to watch that movie 3 times and fell asleep, finally I finished it and pray they dont try to remake another one.
they were two completely different freddies and ppl wanted the same cut and dry crap they didnt get it and were mad too bad the remake was a good film
Okay the new nightmare on elm street wasn't that bad I mean it is no comparison to the original but I would prefer that one over dream master or Freddy's dead because after Freddy's revenge the movies began to go downhill
Why does Robert sounds a bit like tom Kenny?
@rszdemon not in my eyes to me it was just another freddy movie albit with a badass organic glove but it didnt relly scare me becuase wtf is robert englund he,s not freddy with out that classic humor im not saying jackie is the better becuase no one will ever beath the orginal .. but jackie scares me a hell of alot more as freddy then robert does
Robert is better but Jackie did his best
and is still good
I think Jackie over did it. The whole time im watching this im thinking Rorschach Rorschach Rorschach!!! (from Watchmen).. And he looks too much like a real burn victim.. I always loved and feared Freddy movies, id have nightmares for months!! I was actually so scared watching the new one that i threw up a few times XD soooo... good job i guess lol
@gruntspy44 his stature??.... what da hell is that??
I was never scared by Englund’s Freddy, I laughed more than anything! Jackie’s version is creepy and dark, what I always thought the character should be! Yes the 2010 movie is BAD, but that version has always creeped me out more than Englund’s version!
Really? Cause the 1984 one is scary
@@clintbronson5 sure, he’s creepy in the first & even in the second, but Englund’s Freddy is a clown for the majority of his screentime
i think only robert englund can be the freddy, end of story.....
@greengal29 Who, Robert? Lol! Yeah, his voice sounds rather montone and kinda young. :)
