Horror Reboots vs Current Profiles

[HeadlessKramerGeoff777]

I have been thinking, and strict reboots should have separate profiles, rather than being on the original's profile. I mean in other genres on this wiki, reboots are separate from the OG version. The characters also tend to have different origins and even names (as shown with TCM 2003 and 2006), or the entire character concept (Reboot Child's Play and Leprechaun: Origins). This doesn't include timelines that still include the OG film, which would stay on the OG profiles as they are the same characters, just timeline shifted (unless having separate profiles for the timelines is ok then I am all for it). At the moment that would be:

• Jason Voorhees (Reboot)
• Leatherface (Reboot Duology) or (Thomas Hewitt) which is his name in the reboot, which in the OG timeline is Bubba/Jedidiah Sawyer
• Michael Myers (Reboot) or (Rob Zombie Films)

Some examples of this already taking place (kinda):

• Pennywise (Movies) and Pennywise (1990 Miniseries)
• Ghostface (Composite) and Ghostface (Scream: Resurrection)
• Freddy Krueger and Freddy Krueger (New Nightmare)

HERE'S BUMPY! (Get it?)

yes

 

[Tonygameman]

Bump.

[Stalker_Maggot]

I agree with this

 

[HeadlessKramerGeoff777]

I would be fine with making the Leatherface profile, though main issue is the "canon" LF lacks basically all feats and should be deleted.

I'd also add this would mean reboot Freddy should have his own profile

 

[HeadlessKramerGeoff777]

Yep

 

[Qawsedf234]

Probably a good idea.

What should be done for 2022 Leatherface?

 

[Qawsedf234]

Well I did gif the movie for the Reddit RT guy. So here's the notable stuff I saw (gore warning though)

Strength

• Breaks a cop's arm and stabs him in the neck with the bones
• Easily drags and overpowers a woman
• Breaks a cop's skull
• Smashes a skull after a multiple hammer strikes
• Slashes Roland's face and causes a deep cut across his jaw
• Lifts a man off the ground
• Overpowers a man and stabs him into some sharp glass
• Easily breaks a man's leg
• Overpowers a woman with one hand, lifts her completely off the ground with a chainsaw and then throws her multiple yards away
• Throws a woman multiple feet away with one hand

Durability

• Takes a hit from a shotgun
• The chainsaw blocks a shotgun hit and he seems completely unfazed from a stab
• Shot multiple times by a shotgun
• Survives two point blank shotgun hits and a chainsaw uppercut

Stealth/Speed

• Suddenly appears at the top of a staircase
• Uses his chainsaw to distract a woman and stealth tackles her
• Sneaks up on a man and was only spotted with outside help

Chainsaw

• Easily cuts through wood and a metal pipe
• Can easily decapitate people
• Cuts through a door
• Bifurcates a man
• Cuts a woman in half

So I'm seeing the following

• AP: 9-B, higher with chainsaw
• Lifting Strength: Peak or Superhuman based on yeeting people
• Durability: 9-B
• Speed: Alethic Human or Peak Human depending on if we count the shunpo feat
• P&A: Nothing notable compared to his TCM1 P&A section
• Intelligence: He seems smarter, but that may fall under "Clever Killer"

Also I should mention I goofed when making the Leatherface CRT. TCM4, despite the lore issues, does confirm the previous three movies are canon to itself. So the keys should be: Original (TCM1-4) | 3-D Timeline | 2022 Timeline
