this article from April lists some of the proposed F13 movie ideas since the 2009 reboot

they include:

Jason in the snow
Found Footage Jason
3D / throwback version set in 1988
and a 'Jason Voorhees Family Origins' type one

none got made but apparently a couple were close, one was 6 weeks away from begining the shoot and got pulled.

would anyone herelook forward to a new F13 sequel? after all the next one would be PART 13, so they should at least attempt to make it imo...

there are complex legal wranglings going on as well  though...

Snow Jason?  meh.
Found Footage jason?  NO!

Jason Origins?  Horrible idea

SIGH... How about kaiju jason? The finally get tired of jason and drop a nuke on him, so natrually he absorbs the balonium radiantion and grows to giant size, along with his mask and ax. Then we have kaiju jason smashing cities.

I'd like to see it taken in entirely a new direction. Maybe a rom com?

Jason Origins?  Horrible idea

agreed, and this was the one that was about to go into production.

F13 is like the AC/DC of horror franchises. nothing needs to be reinvented or messed with, it just needs to be done well to work. if they F with the formula it won't work

Honestly, I love the F13 saga as much as the next horror nerd but I'm so burned out on the series that I don't think I'd bother with any new installments.

Ditto for the other big horror franchises, i.e. Halloween (tho I have to admit that new trailer has me slightly more intrigued than I was previously), Texas Chainsaw, Nightmare on Elm Street, Hellraiser, etc., etc.

Let the '70s/'80s rest for a while. Come up with some new s*** for cryin' out loud.

NEW STUFF!!! HERESY I SAY, BURN HIM HE IS CLEARLY A WITCH!!!!!

[RCMerchant]

Are you kidding? We didn't need 12 of the old ones.

[zombie no.one]

yeah I can see why some people don't give a flying hockey mask. but I have a soft spot for the F13 series overall... there's a few I love, a few I don't, and a few I hate. but I'd happily watch another one if they made it

[RCMerchant]

Believe it or not my favorites of that series were 2, 3, and JASON GOES TO HELL.

[zombie no.one]

3 is good fun... goofy but entertaining.

part 6 is the only one of the 80s batch I have a real problem with. it tries too hard to be self aware and trendy, imo. - although most F13 fans seem to love it.

How about a SYFY original - JASONSHARK???? 

[RCMerchant]

Howabout JASON GOES TO HOLLYWOOD? And he kills the Kardashians and Mel Gibson and other TV and movie stars who actually play themselves?
OR!
JASON VS. FREDDY VS. MICHEAL MYERS  AT A TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. I mean- they got all these superheros in movies all jammed in together.
I would actually go see this. Directed by Sam Raimi, no less.

[RCMerchant]

The worst to me, is JASON TAKES MANHATTAN.
He never even makes it to Manhattan. It's all on a f**king boat. If he had went toe to toe with the NYCPD, That would have been cool.
That movie insulted my intelligence and ripped me off. (Thankfully I ain't too smart, and I didn't pay to see it.)

[zombie no.one]

lol

he does make it to 'manhattan' (actually vancouver, except for one scene I think)... I'm a fan of Part 8. again it's dumb in many ways but I enjoy it, it's easy to watch. and I love the main theme tune by Metropolis. I watch it 2-3 times a year still...
