What? This doesn’t even make sense anymore. When Saw II came out and the poster featured two severed fingers standing up on their stumps, that was a grotesque display of well-Photoshopped body parts that made sense. The number 2. Any idiot could see that. We all recognize the number 2 when we see it, even when it is gross, that’s the one percent of DNA that separates us from chimpanzees. But this? There is definitely something wrong with Esther.
For one thing: what is that tagline? “Trust in him”? Trust in who, Jigsaw? This is the sixth movie. We know not to trust in him. Fool us once, shame on you, fool us six times (so far), UGH ON ALL OF US. Trust in him. Trust in THIS. And if you were going to have a strange, indecipherable tag line, perhaps you could include a visual to help us make sense of it?
Nope.
I know that movies in general and the Saw movies in particular are make-believe, and that you have to willfully suspend (from meathooks?) your disbelief, or whatever, but you can’t have human hand boxing gloves like that. No, I’m not a doctor, sometimes you just learn some things about the human body as you go. You could have sticky, floppy, loosey goosey human hand boxing gloves MAYBE. But they would not be thick and powerful just like human hands. They would be ladylike and disgusting. Also why are they boxing gloves? Forget it, I don’t want to know. There’s a reason I don’t watch these movies.
The Saw VII poster is going to be seven butts on a tray and it’s going to say “Your butt, sir.” Probably!

At this point, the Saw poster is just the bitter cherry on the suck sundae.
You really don’t get it. Jigsaw’s hands were made into magic boxing gloves after he died. The wearer of the gloves is possessed by his vengeful spirit, allowing the series to continue indefinitely. Trust in James Wan!
have you forgotten the clip, Gabe? This obviously is short for “Trust in him to help cut your health insurance premiums to a more manageable rate. With spring-loaded machetes.”
needs a cat.
thanks. i’m here all week.
So it’s a body glove. Literally.
Also: Butchskins?
I’m just saying. It was there.
I have a feeling that folks who’ve seen every Saw know exactly what this means.
Everytime I see your avatar, I think it’s Snape for a second.
I always think your avatar is a bloody version of Billie Joe from Green Day.
I always think your avatar is Peter Graves.
I always think your avatar is Gwyneth Paltrow’s humanity.

I’m beginning to think that we’re all part of a giant game of Saw. I mean everything about the films is so awful that it’s making me contemplate ending it all so I don’t need to be confronted with Saw anymore. Perhaps that’s what The Guy From The Saw Films (I’m not looking up to see what the remarkably uninteresting character is called) wants. He wants me to play his little game. Well, I’m not falling into his trap. You can’t catch me fictional man.
So, he’s going to have some sort of weird cult-like following, because what he’s doing is “just” in the eyes of creeps and sociopaths in the logic-void that is these movies….
That’s what I’ve gathered from the tagline and that weird motion poster…
Ugh – I’ve already thought about htis too much.
These pretzels are making me thirsty!
loving the orphan references. keep em comin gabe. you may say you are 69 years old, but you dont fool me. i know you are 33.
He’s putting on your hands? He’s in control of you? Maybe that’s why you should trust him?
Just a guess.
I’m sorry, but since you are all people who appreciate the awful, on the Saw (one finger) DVD there is a music video that is terrible by a terrible band, but there is also a making of the awful video documentary which is INCREDIBLE in its ability to show people talking seriously about the making of a beyond-horrible music video in solemn, serious tones as though they were working on preserving Lenin’s corpse. If Saw was like eating a Ho-Ho made of tar, and the music video was like eating a twinkie made of ash, then the documentary of the making of the video is like finding out that the tar Ho-Ho and ash Twinkie are your parents.
Oh man, the meathooks line and the 7 butts have matched 1000% of all of my own possible contributions to my LOLk for realsies.
You know what : when you say “Saw 6″ in french, it phonetically say “saucisse” which mean “sausage” in english !!!
Ha ha! When I first saw the watermark for the website “shicktilyoudrop.com” at the bottom of the poster, I thought it said “SUCKtilyoudrop.com”. Which would pretty much explains the Saw franchise to a T.
Whops, I meant to write “shOcktilyoudrop.com” in my original message! Although, if you keep the “i” and then replace the “ck” with a “t” that would also work. Word play!
Clearly the poster depicts a game of rock-paper-scissors gone horribly wrong.
We all know how much Jigsaw loves his games.
Boxing gloves? I thought they were Converse all-star hands. Not that that would make any more sense.
I would wear those.
I hereby nominate this for the position of Gabe’s Funniest Post.
Ok, so, as much as I hate all of these movies, I can reasonably see (although not quite understand) why people would want to see the first couple of installments in this franchise. Some people have horrible taste and are entertained by awful, sick things. I get it. But what I don’t get is how people are like, “The sixth Saw? Great! I am not bored by this at all! Bring on the seventh!” Surely there is some other torture-porn premise they can move on to? How are people (who like this stuff) not just bored by now?
I just don’t know anymore, with the posters? Like maybe this one is all like “the gloves are off” (visual pundity!), but really? Are we finally, in this SIXTH and most telling movie, going to realize that Jigsaw (or whoever is calling the shots now) is for serious now, and that he would now actually go so far as to murder people to prove his points? NOW the gloves are off, folks. He means business. There’s no holding back. He is not pulling any punches (Ouch – my sides). From the looks of this graphic, blood-curdling poster (and also Trajan Pro, anyone?) this one is going to be ONE HELL OF A HORRIFIC BUMPY ROLLERCOASTER RIDE ON THE CAROUSEL OF DEATH!!?!?!!?!
I don’t – I just don’t trust in him, anymore…
i see what you/we/YOU did here… i don’t understand it = it is stupid. oh, shit, wait, i’m missing the bandwagon.. oh saw movie you’re stupid because i don’t like you because you’re stupid because i don’t like you because you’re stupid, etc.
I don’t understand your comment, but I can tell that it’s stupid. Much like the poster. Also I don’t like you because you’re stupid.
‘The Saw VII poster is going to be seven butts on a tray and it’s going to say “Your butt, sir.”‘ Thanks for ruining my spec script, Gabe.’
This ain’t your sister’s Saw…
