What do you think of these three August films?
Jason vs Freddy
Jeepers Creepers II
Open Range
Haven't seen any of them
I was going to say the same thing....
Technically NONE of us can answer your question since none of these films have been released yet.
Not unless someone on here has managed to get ahold of a bootleg copy.

Any hope for these upcoming movies?
I definitely think there's hope for Freddy vs. Jason. The reason being that Ronny Yu is directing it, and he's got capable hands at least. I'm sure he'll try to remain loyal to what the fanboys have wanted to see for years. Now the interesting question is, how popular will F vs. J be at the box office? My friend thinks it'll go the same route that Jason X did, but I think otherwise. I bet it'll do decent numbers, just because it's been a long time coming. I could definitely be wrong, though. What do you guys think?
As for the other two, I honestly have no idea. I still haven't seen the first Jeepers Creepers yet, but it definitely seems like a love-it-or-hate-it type of movie. As for Open Range, I really have no clue. I thought it was cool that Kevin Costner practically paid for the movie by himself, but maybe it'll be just some vanity project. I don't think so though. He seems sincere about it, so maybe it'll just surprise everyone. Again, though, it could go either way.
Those are just my .02. Curious to hear what you guys think as well.

JASON VS. FREDDY - Should be enjoyable enough. Big dumb popcorn movie. I'll watch it.
JEEPERS CREEPERS II - I liked the first one, but I'm not gonna' pony up theater money to see the sequel.
OPEN RANGE - Being Native American, the whole premise of OPEN RANGE just p**ses me off. Not going to watch it.
OPEN RANGE would probably be my first choice to see in a theater.
JEEPERS CREEPERS II would be my 2nd choice.
I have no intention of seeing FREDDY VS. JASON, unless I hear a lot of good things about it (which is very unlikely).
I avoid Costner, so OPEN RANGE is out, even though I like Robert Duvall.
I think the other two won't do very well.
Seen the trailers for all three. I do not like sequels, especially sequels for films which I have not seen the original, so I don't plan to see the first two. Though, I must say, "Jeepers Creepers II," might be one of those rare sequels, where the sequel is better then the original.
Do plan to see the third. Not an original idea, but, I do like westerns, and westerns are rare now days, especially, good westerns, and this seems to be a good western, as Robert Duvall is in it.
Talking about Robert Duvall, saw a trailer last night for an upcoming film, whose title I have already forgotten, with Robert Duvall, Michael Caine, who is almost unrecognizable, and Joel Haley Osment. Now there is some acting talent.
Can't wait for F vs. J. Some friends and I are planning on going on opening night, all dressed as either Freddy or Jason, because if you have to geek it up, that seems like the movie to do it with. :)
