Lionsgate announced this morning that after the opening box office weekend success of Saw III, that Saw IV will go into production and will most likely be schedueled for a Halloween 2007 release date, following a similar release date pattern to the previous Saw films.
Saw 4 will dig deeper into Jigsaw's insight on life and death. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.60.99.215 (talk • contribs)
www.bloody-disgusting.com confirmed this statement earlier today, along with joblo and ign.com.
IMDB entry? What does an IMDB entry have to do with anything? Without commenting on the general topic at hand, I will say that IMDB entries have nothing to do with whether a film has been, will be, was, or even may be made because the IMDB is user edited and not a reputable source by any definition of the word. Mad Jack 23:03, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
That wouldn't merit a page, because there wouldn't be enough information to actually support itself. Bignole 15:20, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
When is this article available to create as there appears to be numerous sources cropping up stating the following Saw 4 and 5 releases.
Can some one delete that too? Mad Jack 05:35, 7 November 2006 (UTC
why delete it--AndySawFan 17:47, 7 November 2006 (UTC)ac
why do you guys even care, its just a page for the fans --AndySawFan 17:59, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
Let me ask you this, you guys have a page for Sin City 2, something that is all merely rumors and speculation, no official announcement of the project has ever been made. There have been more sources confirming Saw IV, as opposed to the limited amount of sources leading to information os Sin City 2.--AndySawFan 18:12, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
Why are people so hesistant to allow people to create this article? We all know Saw IV will happen. Infact we have more proof a Saw IV will happen than a Jurassic Park IV will ever happen. -24.92.46.16 17:02, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

According to bloody-disgusting.com (and other sources), they also announced that Darren Lynn Bousman is directing the film as well as Leigh Whannel and James Wan as executive producers. Enter Movie 19:54, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Darren has confirmed himself that he's to be directing. He went on a rant in a myspace blog about how amazing the script was and how it was a "not a step backwards- it's a leap forward". I would post a link, but the wiki spam thing won't let me (if you're still curious search for Darren Bousman at myspace and read the blog). I'm not sure if a myspace blog credits as a good source, but its from Darren himself and its not a fake myspace. I know, I talked to him about having a myspace at a Fango Conventioin in January. -Lindsey8417 08:22, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
I've just checked the Saw IV article page, and the cast has gone, so has some production information I uploaded yesterday (it was still there this morning). However there is no record of someone deleting this information? Does anyone know anything about it?
Can I revert it back to what it was like this morning? Movie Junkie 16:21, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
i have a question is this cast for real ? cuz it seems a little over the top and far fetched like the power rangers trap for instance im just asking out of curiosity
That's why I deleted the weird cast list, because obviously it was a hoax. It was well thought out and very funny, but those types of things don't belong here, so I didn't hesitate to ask before I got rid of it. Also, for future reference, please sign your posts on Wikipedia talk pages, by using four tidles (~~~~). Thank you. VonShroom 20:19, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
If they're making Saw IV, then doesn't that mean that Jigsaw is still alive?--71.50.86.66 22:01, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
"Jigsaw is back to 'haunt the living' in Saw IV. It follows on from Saw III, as Jeff (one of Jigsaws previous victims in Saw III) must find his daughter before its too late. He later finds out that it isn't over, as new pieces are added to the puzzle."
This plot was taken from Bloody-Disgusting, which got it from Fearnet. If you follow their link to fearnet, you'll notice that they say that the plot was taken from IMDb, which thus far has been notorious for fake plots. I suggest this plot be removed. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 23:47, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
So, what the movie poster fake and therefore removed from the article? Or was it just removed for no apparent reason? Defunct Lies 16:45, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Does anybody think that Shawnee Smith's character, Amanda will return? If Tobin Bell's character is, then she may aswell, right? I hope so cause I really like her! Chris024 06:38, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
Movieweb (http://www.movieweb.com/news/43/19743.php) claims that Shawnee Smith has been cast in Saw 4. However, either IMDB or Bloody Disgusting makes no mention of her. Vesica 18:08, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
does anybody have an idea for when a offical storyline will be released? it should be at least close to finishing production by now 71.182.190.162 17:10, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
They will most likely release a trailer the same day Hostel: Part 2 hits the cinema, so it's possible that they release the plot around that time to. Vesica 11:57, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Could someone please check to verify whether or not that poster with the skull is legit? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 23:45, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
I Know Its On Joblo.com But it looks Fake. I Mean its photocopied.
Is Jeff even going to be in this movie or what because the ending of Saw III said he would have to play a game and it mainly revolveded around him. I looked at the cast and he wasnt the re. Well if he isn't then I don't mind because I think bringing him into the series was a HUGE mistake. And that sucks Amanda is dead she was so cool!!
It would seem logical to begin the story with Jeff but not have him in for the whole story, as is the case at the start of Saw III with Eric appearing for a few minutes at the start and the end Windog 2008 15:22, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
The current plot section, IMPO, looks a touch messy. I might want at some point to rewrite it quite a bit, primarily by replacing much of it with a cast list, as used on "The Dark Knight (film)", that would have the exact same information. Any objections? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 22:40, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
I don't see why Jeff would be called Denlon. Lynn was the cheating Doctor so she used her maiden name (Denlon) as opposed to her husband's name (Reinhart). Opinions?
This was being discussed on Jeff's talk page. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 03:08, 25 June 2007 (UTC) Ah crap. I missed that, lol. Thanks
The IGN page has a poster up. Can anyone find out what it is or where it can be found? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 02:29, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
On an episode of Entourage, Ari tells his wife that he was given the script for Saw IV to read. Can I add this to the article somewhere?
The blonde woman is jigsaw's old girlfriend...
Not really. This is an encyclopedia, not a crystal ball. Apparently speculation is frowned upon.
Do we have enough support to put a spoiler alert-tag before the plot-section? With (supposed) details on certain characters, like Det. Matthews, it could be good to have. I'm not aware of how Wikipedia handles not 100% confirmed plot details, but I think people would feel spoiled knowing that Matthews didn't die, even if it's just a red herring.
Recent discussions concerning that template have ruled it obsolete it section explictly labeled "plot", "Synopsys" and the like. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 19:12, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
They start going crazy and there is a machine in the middle that once they pull the chains enough it pops a lock and the machine in the middle starts winding so the chain starts shortening on both ends. The guy with his eyelids sewn closed starts going crazy and finds some tools on the ground like a hammer and a big hook. Eventually he starts swatting with them and they fight each other until one kills the other after being impaled with the hook. After the last guy gets killed while laying over the machine by having his face bashed with a hammer, the last guy rips open his mouth and gushes blood from his mouth. End!"

I recall them stating something about Saw V and the director is the second unit director of the previous films. Maybe I just hallucinated? Can anyone confirm or deny? -Lindsey8417 03:26, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I Finally Found the Video in Which they were interviewed Tobin Bell and Darren Lynn Bousman at the same time. The Interview by IGN and the Interview by Movie Web. Nothing too big But I just had to find it.
--Mithos90 07:00, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Here is a Comic-Con 2007 Exclusive Video on Darren Lynn Bousman and Tobin Bell on Saw IV. Darren Lynn Bousman, during the interview, he mentions one of the props in the movie which one is called the "Knife Chair" but does not go into description about it.
IGN Today(August 21, 2007) Has released a Picture of the Knife Chair Itself or what looks most likely to be the Knife Chair

Before any sort of revert war starts, I would like to start a discussion on which of the two posters is more suitable for the page. Any comments? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 21:05, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I Agree with the poster staying as the head. Its alot better than the other posters by far. i assume there will be a better poster when it is released though. DeadWood 21:45, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I don't honestly know if all the good posters so far have been UK only but the head one is the exact same style as the ones we got here and used on the series page. They look much better and fit the style plus are important to display the continuing trend of using body parts in the official advertising. Moving through the film articles and hitting one with that crappy tray with utensils poster would ruin the flow of the saw series of articles.
EDIT: After looking through the other articles it appears that yes, only the UK gets the good posters. NEver seen those other ones and they're terrible in comparison.Darkwarriorblake 01:36, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
All in favor or reinstating the body part posters (currently located on the series page) to the other films? I argue that the DVD covers are based on these posters and thus they're more iconic. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 01:49, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
The non-body part posters must be US only because they were never used here. They are however not all that indicative of the package more than the body part ones. However the body part posters are consistent most important from movie to movie in colour-scheme and theme and are very recognisable components of the film series. The Saw 3 one for example. I don't remember seeing Jigsaw in a cloak, do you? I remember seeing him pretty much dead for the entire film but thats about it. The blue style posters are definetly much more fitting, appropriate and iconic and should really be used for the film pages.Darkwarriorblake 22:24, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

IGN Today(August 29, 2007) has posted maybe the final Poster of Saw 4 before the actual release of the Movie on October 26th, 2007. Was Wondering if This Poster Would be added to the Article or voted upon the other Saw 4 Posters that have been released before this one?

If this goes up, the screenshot depicting this trap would probably be obsolete. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 22:33, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
A few things from that trailer should probably be mentioned in the article. If not here, then perhaps in the List of traps in the Saw film series. I noticed the following new things:
although you are very observant i disagree, wikipedia doesn't have a speculation section, we stick to what we know —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.70.39.154 (talk) 00:55, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Agreed, but we should add the things that aren't of a speculative nature.
all right, cool
1 New look at the knife chair
-note that his face is unscathed in this shot, because he hasn't tried to go forward, but nothing really to report
2 A man (who's wearing VERY similar clothing to Jeff) and a woman tied together with chains
-speculation
3 A fat man in what looks like a head crushing device
-speculation
4 Man in a blue and white striped (bloody) shirt in chains
-speculation, all we know is that these people are probably in traps and in pain
5 The "I'm sorry" probably from Jill for what she made Jigsaw do (i.e, because of her he tried to kill himself and failing, and therefore becoming Jigsaw and making people appreciate life)
-serious speculation, we have no idea what sort of role jill will have. Also, the shot of supposedly jill tied to the man, screaming, has a much different voice then the woman moaning "im sorry" when the puppet is shown
6 The quote "You think it is over... but the games have just begun".
-possibly a new tagline
7 Rigg being captured/kidnapped/surprised
-important, relevant to the synopsis
1,6 and 7 all have some relevance to possible things we can add to the Saw IV article, or the traps article
Err..when did Jill make him become Jigsaw? He tried to kill himself because he was dying and realised he'd wasted his life.Darkwarriorblake 08:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
I worded that one badly. From what I remember from rebirth and Saw 2, Jill dumped John, then he found out he had cancer and tried to kill himself because it was too much for him to take.
Unless there is a reputable website that discusses the possibility of these people being in the film, the section needs to be removed. I mean, technically, Julia Roberts is an unconfirmed cast member, President Bush is an unconfirmed cast member, and I'm an unconfirmed cast member. Either source it, or it shouldn't be there. AniMate 22:05, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Sounds fair enough I suppose. I think the section's there to let people know who may be in the film, but weren't included in the official cast list (like Matthews was in Saw III).
I think we could put Eric Matthews in the confirmed cast members, i have a source that said he was saw in the studio when they were filming —Preceding unsigned comment added by Astra Fan (talk • contribs) 18:35, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
Does That mean OBI is officially in Saw 4? Or do we need a better source than the Director telling us himself over a fan board? Just wondering before I ask can we add him to the confirmed list of actors.
Shouldn't the article be protected? Zenlax 1:05, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
I could ask one of the administrators; since I'm friendly with one of them. I'll see if it helps. Zenlax 6:51, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
Well, he said that until the article gets really worse with vandalisms to notify him and he'll take care of it. Because at this moment, there's not that much vandalism going on. So we'll see. Zenlax 12:36, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

SO IM NOT CRAZY! My friend Anthony on House Of Jigsaw saw these last night too... Before providing me with this! He said it was on a new News Post on Official Saw titled "Fisk", and that the four pictures were up there, taken down and replaced with this picture, which was also later taken down: http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/692/pics004id1.jpg My friend Anthony also said that new spoilers have come in which are that THE POLAROIDS WITH THE DEAD PEOPLE, BELONG TO FISK as well —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.5.56 (talk) 05:28, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Quite obviously faked. Stop coming here with your fake crap and unsigned comments. Thanks
I do not have an account on here. Thats why the posts are 'unsigned'. And EXCUSE ME, please, Do not accuse me of making these?. I use wikipedia religiously and I am not trying to corrupt the saw iv page or anything. I got the pictures from Officialsaw, and the guy who also saw them of house of jigsaw even has screenshots of Officialsaw.com in its entirety with those pictures on it. I'm not claiming that the photos are real or anything, but I am promising you that those photos WERE on Official Saw. Also, I don't know who is doing it, but I would really appreciate it if whoever it is that's doing it to stop editing my posts here on the Talk page.

Lately the last Week Billy the Puppet Has Videos of Himself Up on the Web So Far On Youtube, Bloody-disgusting and Myspace and I think he wants us to piece the "missing puzzle pieces" to a final conclusion before the 26 of October. Its been really weird. Has anyone Found anymore related to this, and wants to add it to the article? Possibly a Viral Promotion of the Film? --҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ ॐ 19:12, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
The only Videos that I seen a Difference in is the Youtube Version and the Myspace Version where one says "See what I see" and the other doesn't, and I agree like you said the rest are just replacing the where Billy says "You are watching me on ---" to where the video is being posted on though the videos ARE OFFICIALLY "REAL". I doubt its only about letting us putting in the code then adding out email address, its more to that if they spent the time putting up videos promoting us to do what Billy is telling us. I added a cited source from Bloody-disgusting about the event so if anyone wants to look it up. Just in case. --҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ ॐ 08:30, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Some one has found Comingsoon.net which has been added to the list.
I have just been to the forums on rotten-tomatoes, and one person there claims to have already seen a low quality german version of saw IV. He says Laura (from saw II) faked her own seizure, and is actually Jigsaw's daughter, and that Amanda was her older sister. He also goes on to say that the families from everyone in Saw 2 will be tested. I believe that this is a fake, as do many of you, but if by any chance you find out any more info regarding this, please let me know. Any comments?

I'd just like to mention that the plot summary currently on the article, as of 10/26 11:09 PST is very unprofessional sounding. It looks like it was written by a 15 year old in an Instant Messaging coversation to a friend, complete with typos and the author's own opinions (e.g. "thats gross, btw").

Signed, I actually read this synopsis on the IMDB board for the film. The poster then didn't even have any new info posted, he had just summed up the scenes we already knew before release.

I think due to the non-linear basis on the new sequel in relation to SAW 3--along with new information on Jigsaw and Jill's past, a SAW Timeline should be made.68.117.23.170 23:04, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

One other thing, doesn't Rigg get let off because Hoffman lies for him in the office? The lawyer represents the abusive father, and has no interest in letting Rigg go. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.157.241.220 (talk) 11:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
I realize the film just came out, but I've noticed several discrepencies. Maria is KILLED, not subdued, the fact Rigg puts Ivan in his trap isn't mentioned, Perez was not poisoned, she just had shards of puppet embedded in her face. Also, the tense changes throughout the article--which may become confusing to readers.68.117.23.170 23:20, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Who's Maria? The wife? Brenda was the chick in the chair. She was subdued, i saw her alive when Rigg left. She died later. As for the tense, I wrote it all in one go, I keep going over it to fix it but I'm not flawless. I'm pretty sure it mentions that Rigg forces Ivan to get into the trap. As for Perez, that might be my mistake, the puppet was shaterred but I didn't see any shards, looked more like a gas.Darkwarriorblake 23:23, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry. Brenda's who I meant. She died due to Rigg throwing her into a the mirror, she had glass shards in her neck.68.117.23.170 23:29, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
I know she was messed up but I could have swore she was breathing when Rigg left. No doubt she died from that and her injuries from the chair but I still am sure she was alive when he left.Darkwarriorblake 23:31, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
Gotta remember, Ive only watched it once so far and stuff happens quick. So I might have missed things, Ive done the synopsis to the best of my memory.Darkwarriorblake 23:34, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
It also signifies the beginning of Rigg's slippery slope, having killed her. I didn't notice at first either, but when her body's found, you can clearly see a large section of mirror lodged in her throat. I realize the movie first came out, I'm just trying to help clear some stuff up.

It's too long and detailed, it has to be shortened, and a spoiler tag should be placed at the begining. --VorangorTheDemon 00:03, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
The story is too complex and moves too much through different periods of time to shorten it more than it is without it being incomrehensible and not all that much of use as a synopsis of the actual film.Darkwarriorblake 00:24, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
This happens with nearly every 'big' film on wiki now. Who are these people that document films on here in such detail? The best place for them is dictionary.com so they can learn the meaning of the word 'synopsis'. Moreover, these extensive plot summaries never get shortened or rewritten and when they do some geek makes them even bigger. Why dont I rewrite the Saw IV synopsis myself? I havent seen the film, and now i read the synopsis I now dont need to :P 195.183.80.133 13:01, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I don't see it a problem, esp. for the people that didn't understand the movie. BTW I see it says Plot, not Synopsis. 67.142.130.42 08:31, 1 November 2007 (UTC)!
Note: Don't read if you do not want a Saw 4 plot element to be spoiled. This is probably more related to Saw 3, but I thought I would have posted it here since I have learned it from Saw 4. Everybody remembers when Kerry was in the angel trap? If you remember that, I'm sure you remember that Kerry (close to her death) looks up and says "you" before she dies. In the Saw 3 article it states that she saw Amanda. However, we learn in Saw IV that Forensic Hoffman was helping out Jigsaw and Amanda in the time period of Saw 3. So is it beyond possibility that Kerry looked up and saw Forensic Hoffman and not Amanda? —Preceding unsigned comment added by I needa change (talk • contribs) 04:06, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Yea The Haunted Angel is Right this is not a Discussion Page even though we want it to be because we love Saw so much but this page is meant to improve the Article Now Mientkiewicz The Glass Case Trap was shown in the film but not the actual trap in progress itself. Why We do not know why it did not make it into the film but there has been screen shots of the trap at works on its victim. Here is the article and enjoy. Btw its called the "Glass Lined Box" at the moment. Not sure if thats the traps real name. --҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ ॐ 21:26, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
If you can find the photo online, the Glass Box has Zepp, played by Michael Emerson, inside the box in his underwear. This was supposed to be Zepp's first test, but the scene was deleted from the film. - Russell —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.110.101.211 (talk) 14:36, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
It wasn't Zep , it was Vagrant, played by that guy from urban legend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.199.2 (talk) 23:48, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I think the user ratings from rottentomatoes.com should be posted in the reception section, but the rules basically say not too. So what is it? I had readded it before, then saw that the rules say not too. But User:Wikirocks2 undid it. Drew 23:12, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
What is the point of the "Plot production" section anyway? It's all moot now that's the film's been released. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 00:14, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
In one of the opening scenes, Rigg bursts through a door to find Kerry in the impossible trap. This is a clear indicator that this scene occurs before / during the events of Saw III. However, while discussing the trap, the detectives mention Amanda as the one setting it up, but then rule her out. How do the detectives know about Amanda at this point in time? 24.119.117.120 12:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
After reviewing the movie for the umpteenth time, i'm sorry to say that the door DOES close after jigsaw is killed, because Agent Strahm has to open the door to get in there. The only part that truly make no sense is that jeff was holding a gun when strahm got in there, instead on the saw that he cut jigsaw with, unless he picked up Amanda's gun after the door closed and we couldn't see him... but in conclusion, the door did close. it appears that the door locks from the inside and can be accessed from the outside(like a meat freezer door), unless locked from the outside(which hoffman did upon reclosing the door) 216.141.228.112 15:50, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
That's not neccesarily true. daniel matthews got out...and theres a six month gap between saw 2 and 3(as discovered in saw 4..."eric's been missing for six months, kerry was missing for 4 days..."), so it's very possible that after the brazen escape of a "serial killer" and the disappearance of multiple people, they probably interviewed him and deduced that she, being the only other survive but still MIA, and that she was a test subject at one time, is probably working with Jigsaw...
this is in reference to the PLOT HOLES topic
I was wondering if it would be alright to add a dvd section to the Saw 4 page with the following information? - "The Saw IV DVD is expected to be released in both rated and unrated editions on January 22, 2008." - here is where I got the information from (sourcing) - http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/saw-iv.html - does anyone have anny comments on adding this new section? - RVDDP2501 (talk) 16:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Yeah someone needs to add this section. I'll do it later tonight if no one else does before me. I hope this "Unrated Director's Cut" is really 108 minutes because Saw IV is barely 90 minutes in the theatrical release. The 108 min running time on here is completely incorrect, it was about 88 minutes long. - Russell —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.110.101.211 (talk) 18:54, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Well after listening to the commentary with Darren Bousman and Lyriq Bent, it's most likely that when the 2 disc of Saw IV is released on 10/21/08, it will just be called "Unrated Extended Cut". Supposedly the first cut of the film is 109 minutes and that became 90 mins in theaters and DLB points out how many scenes were really shortened a lot by an editor that was used by the producers because DLB had to start shooting Repo when he wrapped Saw IV and could not oversee the editing process like he did for Saw II and III. He says on the commentary that hopefully he will be able to restore a lot of the longer version for the next release. - Russell —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.110.101.211 (talk) 20:36, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
Whoever put under the DVD section that the shot of Hoffman unstrapping himself from his chair is absent from the unrated version is completely wrong because that shot is still in the film totally unchanged from the theatrical version so I removed that citation. I also added Darren's Video Diary to the extras section - Russell —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.110.101.211 (talk) 18:50, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry, I don't understand this. Why didn't Rigg help her? I know he was TOLD not to help her, but why not? What would have been the consequences if he helped pull out the last rod and unlocked her? 75.75.110.235 (talk) 07:36, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, in real life she would have just told him that there was a knife under the TV stand so he could cut her hair from the chair to avoid her SCALP GETTING RIPPED OFF. - Russell —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.110.101.211 (talk) 13:55, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
I've been reverted a couple of times now (without any comment whatsoever) by an anon editor after I changed "Critics gave the film mixed reviews" to "Critics gave the film mostly negative reviews". [8] [9] [10] It seems obvious to me that the reviews of this film are mostly negative, and cannot reasonably be described as "mixed". Am I missing something here, or should I ask for semi-protection of the page if this continues? --Conti|✉ 18:14, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
The UK DVD release at Blockbuster was today - special promo box versions were available. One had a hologram (I think) with a 3D=like image of the evil puppet. The other one had two gimmicks - press a button and you heard the 'I want to play a game' warning plus you could watch a circular saw inside whizzing round inside. Irresistible. IMHO it's a great addition to the Saw genre. Royzee (talk) 20:53, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
"Critics gave the film mostly negative reviews" but the movie was #1 the release week !! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nico92400 (talk • contribs) 08:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
I disagree with the article's statement that Cecil failed to pass his test. Cecil has to push his face through knives, having been told doing so will release himself from the chair he is sitting on. He pushes, and as a result the chair falls to pieces. He shows his eagerness to live is greater than his need to keep a pretty face. Does anyone disagree before I change the article Kev (talk) 22:01, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Riggs doesn't pull out the final rod from the lady, he gives her his coat and tells her that she has to do it herself. In fact, the spear that shoots across the room and kills the photographer was meant to kill the woman had he tried to remove the rod himself. I'm gunna put this in the article, if anyone objects, feel free to remove it. [[User:SonicNiGHT|SonicNiGHT]] (talk) 15:28, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

I've noticed the page is missing all sections beneath the 'DVD and Blu-ray release' section. If there is any way to fix this, how? ObsessiveJoBroDisorder (talk) 3:37, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
While I understand that fans of the film are the most likely to be editing the page, the selection of review quotes seems somewhat biased. After noting that Rotten Tomatoes gives an 18% fresh rating, considerably more space is given to positive reviews of the film than negative. In all honesty, I think there are just too many review quotes here anyway. We can start to improve the section by cutting out a lot of those positive ones. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Howfar (talk • contribs) 21:16, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
