Tell me if you can produce it, and I will say what screenshot I need.
Thanks.

Now, a bit of science lesson:
Houseflies have no mandibles. Housefly Maggots have mandibles.
Brundlefly has "side appendages" that could or couldn't be maggot-like mandibles, or maybe they are a new kind of auditory apparatus. Remember, it's not a viable organism.
Martinfly has mandibles. Of course, modified. With teeth.
Wondering: how does Martinfly manage to eat without a proboscis?

Martinfly... I wonder if that was a cheeky nod to Eric's history with Back to the Future. Hard to believe, but it's not a nod to Marty McFly. Cronenberg named Seth Brundle after famed racing driver Martin Brundle.

It's not a masterpiece like The Fly (1986), but it's a super-great and brilliant movie which surely deserves revaluation. It's underrated and overlooked.
I love Eric Stoltz's performance, it's very intense. The story is astonishing, charming and thrilling, plenty of ideas, twists and action. It's a pure sci-fi horror work. The final creature, Martinfly, is a must.
Chris Walas did a terrific job with this sequel. It's not a pale Hollywood-like rehash of the first movie, but a new imaginative movie in its own right. And it was a hit nonetheless. It grossed almost 39 million dollars wordwide, on a 7-12 million dollars budget. Also, it performed very well in the home video department.
By the way: if someone owns a copy of The Fly (1986), and can check a scene for me, please contact me via PM. Thanks.

Freddy's Dead is set in 2001. Ten years from 1991 (as stated on-screen). Freddy vs Jason is set in 2003. As stated on-screen.
In Freddy's Dead, Springwood has been "wiped out". Adults had escaped from the town long time before. Teenagers had been already killed (John Doe was the last one). In Freddy vs Jason, Springwood is alive and well. And they have dealt with Freddy in recent years...
In Freddy's Dead, Freddy was finally defeated and the Dream Demons (the source of his powers) disjoined from his essence forever. In Freddy vs Jason, Freddy is fine. No mention about the Dream Demons. The Friday The Thirteen saga occurs in a vastly different tonal and visual environment...
Alternate universe? I guess so.

It's not a rumour, actually.
Avengers 5 will feature Barbie and a black and LGBT version of Oppenheimer armed with nuclear weapons.
Can't wait to purchase the American action figures.

Can't wait. Nolan will deliver the best.
I just purchased my Oppenheimer American action figure with nuclear weapons.
I've heard that ''Oppenheimer 3'' will feature a black and LGBT version of the character.

Mark my words.
1 billion of dollars or even more.
Disney is walking the right path. They know it. They know it all.

Nightmare 6:
John Doe managed to manifest into Spencer's dream because, at that point, the entire Springwood was a real world/dreamscape portal, since Freddy's powers had increased considerably in-between #5 and #6. So John Doe had no dream power of any sort.
Tracy succedeed in manifesting inside Spencer's dream for the very same reason. Additionally, she used meditation technique teached by Doc. However, Tracy is a DW.

Sometimes I hear the original ANOES mentioned as a film with a bad or botched ending, or even that the ending undermines or lessens the overall film, but I have never felt that way. It’s not the most iconic or memorable ending to a horror film, even in that particular era(even some lesser horror films have endings that resonate more), but I fail to see what’s so bad about it. This is an effective ending. Within the context of the film it makes sense: something tranquil and dreamlike that abruptly turns into a total nightmare. It fits. Freddy wins. Ending on a lighter and happier note would have been incongruent with the tone of film up to that point. From what little I know, it appears there was some discussion and indecision on how to end it, but I’d say they more or less came up with the right idea. The only other thing that might have worked would have been an ambiguous ending but, off the top of my head, I’m not sure how they would have pulled that off. In regards to your points mentioned, I would agree. It would explain or make a few things clearer. Makes sense to me. Wonderful post.

As for certain things established in Part 2, it failed with critics and audiences alike, so the producers were keen to distance themselves from it.
Part 2 was less successful than Part 1, 3 and 4, but it was a hit nonetheless.
