"One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. Nine, ten, never sleep again."

I would love that! Also, a SAW table would be incredible...

Thanks :-)

They really need to do this!

Who knows? I'm pretty sure that the table is in the works, along with Friday The 13th maybe as a bundle...

A very troublesome (and probably pricey) license to get, it seems. I dunno, maybe it will happen someday. SAW, on the other hand, seems like way easier to get the license.

Just don't base him off of the remake Freddy like they did with Leatherface. They should have based him off of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

sharp idea

It's based on who they had a license with. The new TCM movie was done by Legendary if I remember right and Zen has a licensing contract with them.

I'm mostly certain all Elm Street movies are owned by New Line Cinema so we shouldn't have to deal with any of that crap if they do end up making a pinball table out of Freddy.

AFAIK, Wes Craven's estate hold the rights on the US, New Line internationally. It's a pain in the backside license to deal with it. Maybe they will be able to pull it off, who knows. It's gonna be pricey, that's for sure. Worst license than that to get, only Friday The 13th, that table for sure will never happen.

I was under the impression that Wes Craven's estate put them up for auction a couple years ago and New Line bought them outright, but now that I look for evidence of this, all I can find is a Reddit post.

Either way, yeah, it looks like a real ♥♥♥♥ show getting a new Elm Street anything and this totally explains why the movie franchise is sitting fallow even though it's one of the most well recognized brands in horror.

As for Friday the 13th, yeah, you can tell they gave up on that license considering the new Camp Blood Brook table is Friday the 13th in all but name! :-D
